Yea, there's a lot of opinions out there, now even though i do finally own both of these I've yet to install and compare them.

Even then, not sure how one goes around measuring which is ~better~ and which is ~worse~.

Anyway, the point of my post was purely informational, I feel would be buyers should have as much info. as possible (and there was already a similar post on the World War Zero side, probably by someone that feels like yourself :-)

WWZ has abandoned saving everywhere in favor of console like checkpoints (because WWZ is ported from Xbox).

It supposedly has better graphics but it just depends on what graphics you prefer. I think Iron Storm has clearer graphics.

WWZ has an extra enemy type and a new gun - flamerthrower.

I mean, if you love this game, which I do, btw it holds up quite great. I guess you can get WWZ too and play it. It is a good reason to replay it again.

Iron Storm is the original game.

Well, it's kinda too late for me to choose, as I already bought both (I usually don't put too much thought into buying a FPS from a studio I know).

Generally I prefer the original over any port/redux/remake/etc. mainly because I favour good solid game play over supposedly improved graphics (sounds like we have that in common). But as I said; I can't say yet as I haven't played either of these two yet.

I do think it's at least interesting to have both versions available.
I plan to play through World War Zero to see the differences myself.
So are those deleted cutscenes just from Iron Storm or did the PC version of World War Zero remove some cutscenes from the PS2 version?

I can't be of help (yet), but ZER0_K% seems to have played both and is quite knowledgeable on the subject.

Thanks for spelling out (some of) the differences and saving me some money

Quite late to say but original Iron Storm is winner. World War zero looks just like worse version of the game.
