Favorite cover-based third person shooter?

There are alot of them, which one is your favorite? I know what most people will say but I'm still asking the question 
 
Mine is Uncharted 2, hell, it was even my GOTY 2009

Also, wasn't this the ORIGINAL cover-based shooter? "

Uncharted 2 if you are looking for a legitimitely good one.
For some reason I also like Dark Sector, altho I know it's not the best game out there.

I like Uncharted 2, I feel like it's better than most, if not all cover-based shooting games I've played, but not because it had good cover-based shooting, so I'd feel weird naming that one. 
 
Y'know I really like what they did with Army of Two: TFD. Some smart changes, the shooting feels great, cool co-op moves, the cover mechanic isn't annoying... yeah I might think that's the best one for now.  
 
I'm mad bored of Gears, couldn't even bring myself to beat 2... had it come out maybe 3-4 months earlier I might have been interested in that kinda game, but I don't think I can go back to it, nor play Gears 3 anymore. Dunno why, it just didn't hold interest.

Gears of War.  Co-op campaign and a fun as hell multiplayer. 

Gears Of War

Uncharted 2, no contest. Before then it was Uncharted. Those guys make pretty good games.

If it counts, James Bond: Everything or Nothing. It was more of an action game than anything, but it did have a cover system, IIRC.
 
For a more vanilla answer, probably Gears 2 (although I bet that if I've played either of the Uncharted games, they'd be my answer....).

Still Gears and Gears 2. Just felt so right in those games, moreso than Uncharted.

Gears of War. period. It is a TRUE cover based game. There is no competition in this field. Until you find me a game where the entire AI and Control Scheme is built upon actually taking cover (not that crouch behind a wall shit), Gears will dominate all cover based shooters.
 
edit: And i mean a true cover system, not some weak ass bullshit cover system.

Uncharted 2 was amazing with it's mechanics. Being able to hang off a ledge and shoot the enemies above you was always fun. I also enjoyed Mass Effect's gameplay, not necessarily for its shooting but for the ability to combine biotic and tech abilities into a battle. With your enemies immobilized cuz of Singularity and having their shields reduced to nothing cuz of Overload made the shooting a lot more enjoyable, considering that you could take out many enemies within a short period of time that way.

Gears of War 2. But that's only cover based, not my favorite TPS.

"built upon actually taking cover (not that crouch behind a wall shit)"

I'd really, really like it if I could change the controls for Uncharted 2, then that would be my favorite, but, alas, I cannot.

I'm quite partial to the Rainbow Six: Vegas series.

Gears of War 1.  I haven't played Uncharted 2, but I hear it's pretty good.

uhhh...I guess Gears of War

" @Venatio: No, it wasn't.  They mentioned on the podcast that it was some N64 game(Windback?).  Anyways, the Gearsez ,probably 2 for Horde Mode. "
