STOP THE PRESS!!! Samus Hates Halo!!!!!
Dude seriously, this thread is about what was the best game last gen, millions of people don't agree with you...I mean, Zelda? I played the wind worrier, and if that was any indication of what this "new" one is like (talking gameplay wise) then no, it is not better than Halo. Halo was the first successful FPS on a conslole, it lead to some of the greatest online play evern seen. I mean it lead to Halo 2...and eventually Halo 3 which has consistantly been head and shoulders above all others in terms of logged online matches. Do you really think a game that lead to that big of a following deserves to be voted down? I think you are just bitter because you know you're favorite game is not the best game last gen.

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
