Don't type in all capital letters to start.

Ok, so you are looking for a fun runner/basher. Either one would suffice.

Here is a Cen Genesis search you can run, and there are 75 records dedicated to the Genesis. Should help you learn more about it-

Here is a CEN Genesis review-

I like using my Local Hobby Shop (LHS). So, I would get whichever one they support better. My LHS support the Revo and not the Genesis, so I would probably get a Revo just based on that. Then again, I love my LHS and want them to stay in business, so I don't do much mail order/internet part ordering. If you don't care/don't like your LHS and plan to get parts mailed to you, then just get the one YOU like better.

Both are great trucks, the gen le looks so cool rumbling over bad terrain. :) The cen does not have the aftermarket support the revo does not even close, that might be a consideration.
