But thats your problem right there. If i told you get me the better racing game, and they were between Gran Turismo and God of War what would you get me? Oh Gran Turismo because its the only racing game of the 2. 

You keep saying multiplayer yet your missing the point of Metroid. Metroid isnt Halo. Thats were im and many others are getting at here.

I just keep hearing you say you want Game A over B because of multiplayer while Game B is a full on single player experiences.

If you love Multiplayer so much, Why not buy a WiiU and play SSBU? Its the only Fighting game where you can play up to 8 players in. And on 1 Console i'll add!!!


Because fighting games are boring as hell to me online and offline.  If you don't want my opinion on why I prefer resistance then ask the OP to make a like with like comparison.  It's unfair giving a game like Metroid a comparison with a game that gives me so much more value for my buck and fun. 


How would you know how much value a metroid game gives if you've never played one?

I doubt you played all 3 Prime games.

And then there's still Metroid: Zero Mission, Metroid Fusion and Super Metroid.


Don't know which one I played but I guess it was the first.


How were you able to get your hands on the trilogy?

Maybe it will but I doubt I'll get as many hours from a single player only game.  But that's not my point.  My point is no other game ever gave me such fun with an 8 player online co-op. And the 40 and 60 player oonline battles were a blast at the time.  It's unfair to compare these games but if I had to pick one I'd pick resistance for the sake of way more hours of fun. 

You can spend over 200 hours on a metroid game because of the sheer amount of replay value in each game. These are games you can literally pick up and play right after you beat them.

Does it have 8 player coop missions? And for the battles obviously planetside would beat theM. Just highlights how weird this comparison is comparing a really good yet limited game against much more expensive options.  

It has unliminated player coop. I assume you would remain consistent and also think FFXIV will be a better game than FFXV, as well, right? It isn't as limited as FFXV is. You can play forever, and with hundreds of people. In fact, Runescape is a better RPG than FFXV! It is free and I can play that game forever. It doesn't matter what the content of the game is, as long as it lets you do as much as you want for as long as you want!!!


Yes all those are much more complex than Metroid.  If I was into rpgs and it was comparing final fantasy to Metroid I'd probably choose that.  I don't know why some of you guys take issue with my personal preference.  It's like metro redux is arguably better than Resistance but at the at the time id choose resistance because it's a better package for me.  It's a decent single player series with great online in 2 of the 3 games.

Once again, how would you know this if you haven't played a metroid game?

Why are you guys not questioning people saying Metroid when they've not even played the resistance series?

Can you provide an example of somebody who said, "I never played Resistance, but Metroid."?

Metroid of course, don't be ridiculous

So you think everyone who's saying Metroid has played all 3 resistances if any of them?
