Goldeneye or Halo
 

This just came to me because memories have been forged with both games.

While I am being biased, having logged a multitude more hours with Goldeneye, Halo is also good.

Halo is deemed the best FPS ever, while Goldeneye, possibly one of the best N64 games, is being forgotten.

So now its time to settle this with heated discussion and monkey stle feces hurling.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

Goldeneye for all of the countless memories.

Ahh.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

I remember back in the day when it was me, Justin, Breaden and Chris.


Those times kicked ass.


Then I think Breaden got substituted for you.



Justin got substituted for Andrew.



And then Brian just showed up.

GoldenEye... because people using Oddjob where very easy and in a way also hard to kill...

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

Halo is great for Co-op but Goldeneye is more fun in multiplayer by far.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

I can't decide. The single player game in the Halos is far superior. But the multi-player for Goldeneye is just insanely fun. Its a tie in my book.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

GOLDENEYE 007!

best console FPS, ever

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

And the winner is Goldeneye, for the notable multiplayer deathmatch mode and its incorporation of stealth and varied objectives into the single-player missions.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

I pick the Halo frachise for reasons noted in the "Confessions of a Halo gamer wannabe" thread in the microsoft forum.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

I pick Goldeneye. If we were running on merits of engine, or graphics, Halo would win easily, but Goldeneye has better single player mode and multiplayer mode, because of great level design and mission objectives.

I also like the weapons better... best weapons ever in a shooter.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

Halo because my friends and I didnt play games when we were that young and didnt really appreciate Co-Op and multiplayer till Halo came out.

I'd vote Far Cry over both though :)

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

I think that Goldeneye was probably a better game at its time (not that its not a good game now, but the technology has advanced...), but Halo is the better game in a direct comparison.


/me shrugs and walks away

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

Perfect Dark.

Oh wait....

Yeah, I guess I'd say Halo. I never really got into Golden Eye.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

Both are classic games, well, I only really play them for multiplayer.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

GoldenEye is the BEST multiplayer deathmatch game in the world. Not to mention the awesome cheats you can have during DM, such as Big head, small head, etc.

I had so much fun playing GoldenEye. In a direct comparison... GoldenEye would still capture my attention... If I were to play GoldenEye today, and Halo.... I'd still have the best time with GoldenEye... because you chose your character and even had a trademark character within your circle of friends. Halo.. your just different colors of the same person so its a good Deathmatch but not as good as GoldenEye.

All hail the Klobb....

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

Klobb's smell.

Me, Typhoid and our friends used to run around complex a lot with liscense to kill on.

Those were glorious times.

My trademark character was Boris based solely on his fruity shirt.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

In my opinion, its just not even close. Goldeneye, by a long shot.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

complex with proximity mines = mayhem.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

Proximity mines r0x0r3d the house. I remember just setting them in random places... rather then in entrances.. really did a killing.

Anywho... my fav gun was athe D5K Deutsche.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

If you got that little upper room in the complex (YOU ALL KNOW WHAT IT IS! It had no name other than "the room" in my house), you were ****ing king. It was next to impossible to die.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

Halo's Co-Op was the most exciting experience ever.

I clocked HUNDREDS of hours in that. Every day after school, for probably 6 months straight, all I did was play Halo Co-Op. I must have beat Assault On The Control Room on Legendary a thousand times.

Halo was hit or miss. Half the levels weren't worth playing more than 20 times. Still, Halo had one of the best Multiplayers to date.

On the flip side, Halo was way over rated. The PC community laughed at Halo, and I don't blame them.

Goldeneye wins in my eyes though. I played that game for like 3 years...I'm not even kidding. I didn't get it till a year after it came out, and I must have rented it 20 times (back when renting games didn't suck).

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

One thing I just wanted to mention here.

I went back to play Perfect Dark the other day and I played for like 5 mins before getting this terrible headache.

I guess I never noticed how bad the framerate was or something but I tried playing and between the framerate and the turning, I couldn't take it anymore, I was done for the night after that.

Re: Goldeneye or Halo
 

mm...Goldeneye was a smarter game. Not necessarily in the AI but in the way it was executed.
