lol nintendo fans are going nuts in this thread. anyways i haven't played either of them, but i'm going to say metroid is probably better.

The comparison makes about as much sense as claiming Captain Toad is better than Uncharted.

I think Sony fans would have a field day as well then lol.

This is like comparing Leonardo Di Caprio to Vince Vaughn.

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.  

Since when does more complex mean better?

Watch this, you might get a better understanding about Metroid. This game still has quite an active speedrunner community. And sequence breaking is more complex than anything you do in Resistance.


I watched some of the video.  Seriously I'd rather drag myself through broken games than play an old retro game.  I came up in the ps1 days so I've no love for the older generations. Are there even any new Metroids or technically advanced?  That video has convinced me.  I'd not play that series let alone choose it over one I like.  Different strokes for different folks.  I respect all opinions that favour Metroid so please respect mine.

Except you're not willing to give Metroid a fair chance, so your opinion means nothing. That's a very narrow minded view you got there. Jeez. You're missing out on a lot of good games.

This is one of the best looking games on the GBA, so yes, it is technically advanced. It has aged better than the first Resistance in terms of graphics lol.

Something about projectile vomiting. I think you would've liked it.
