Wrong, Goldeneye was very successful on the N64. I won't claim that Goldeneye was the first successful console FPS cause I have no idea, but I know for a fact that Halo was not the first! Halo was certainly a well-done game and revolutionized console FPS's, but it owes a LOT to Goldeneye, especially regarding the multiplayer aspects. Before Halo it was Goldeneye being played in dorm rooms. Also how does popularity equal the "best" game? Prime has a higher score on gamerankings.com and they have the same Metacritic rating so at the worst I would say they are, according to critics, equal. And of course Halo has retained more popularity over time, it's primarily a multiplayer game so people will continue to play it. Prime is a single player game thus was played less. That doesn't make it a worse game though. |
Yes, but Goldeneye did not change the way people look at FPS on consoles. I don't know that I could trust gamerkings.com, I'm sure I can pull a site out of my ass that would rank Halo higher that Prime. I would be more inclined to use the universaly trusted ranking site Metacritic. See, here is why Halo is the better game. It changed the way people looked at console FPS, I would argue that it was even more succesful than Goldeneye because it is still raved about, enjoyed, and played on a daily basis by people all around the world. It is also more popular, and created a cult fallowing, something very few games have been able to achieve to date.
Now, Seece, can you update the list?
If Halo is at the top, then + GOW...otherwise, HALO
