Halo, GE was awesome for its day but Halo 1 shits on it's grave.

This is my signature, there are many others like it, but this one is mine.
If you take 110% of what I say seriously then you're gonna have a bad time.

Halo was actually good. Goldeneye was always a terrible game.

Both had a big impact at the time and have aged terribly. I wouldn't touch either of them now.

Halo probably has better combat, while Goldeneye has better scenarios/missions.

Goldeneye solidified the genre, Halo made the gameplay what it is today.

As much as I love goldeneye, halo has a far better campaign (with an awesome story) and multiplayer and still holds up well to this day

Have you tried playing GoldenEye? It's unplayable garbage. Even back then it was terrible.

Goldeneye was a better game for its time than Halo was for its time. Halo has always been tremendously overrated as a FPS. Everything on PC at the time was way, way better than what Halo was at.

I disagree. It had innovative gameplay and an epic story. Oh yeah... and an amazing soundtrack

Also I felt like Goldeneye 007 was trying to be a console FPS, whereas Halo was trying to be a PC FPS on a console. And god, Halo sucked. When you think that Battlefield 1942 came out on PC around the same time, holy shit was Halo inadequate.

Apples and oranges. Halo is a sci fi shooter and battlefield isn't

Halo for both. If it was Halo vs. Perfect Dark, it would be a bit harder of a question. PD has the same control and framerate issues as GE, but the campaign is great, it has really cool weapons, and you can use bots in multiplayer. I never played GE that much when I was younger, so PD has more nostalgia value too. Though at this point, the first Halo is also nostalgic.

Goldeneye was fun to play when I was a kid, but Halo CE is still fun to play today.

For me, there's a lack of weight to Halo controls. It feels like I'm just zipping a cursor around the screen to shoot.

Goldeneye, on the other hand, feels like you're actually moving a character.

For me, that tactile difference alone makes me much prefer Goldeneye.

Halo was arguable more influential.

25+ years of gaming taught me one important life lesson. You normally don't have to push start at the main menu.

Eh, I think the Goldeneye controls work okay because of the stiff N64 joystick, and Halo controls work with the modern joysticks that center well. Each one's style wouldn't have worked well with the other's controller. However, the Halo style is definitely much better overall. I don't really care about "weight", I just want it to be easy to shoot things, and the Halo aiming is so much smoother.

Plus, the controls for halo were pretty much the basis for every modern console fps. That control scheme was an inevitability regardless but at the time it was revolutionary
