So which was better, Metroid Prime or Halo CE?
which was better, squares or circles?
>>750183217Prime by 1000 miles. Halo 2 is amazing but 1 is just ancient trash
>>750183217I prefer CE.
>>7501832172D Metroid > Halo CE > Metroid Prime
They both hold a special place in my heart.So does Haloid.
>>750183217never understood why people were comparing these completely different games. similarities are superficial at best
>>750184236John Halo and Jane Metroid both wear power armor, obviously their games are identical.
>>750184236have you ever heard of 'first person shooter' ?most people had not until these two games came out to critical acclaimthese games were the 'dark souls' of the entire genre even though games like goldeneye and quake like 'demons souls' came beforeyou are basically pretending to be confused as to why world war i and world war ii are popular topics because they are different and we've had other wars or some shit idk how retarded people think
>>750183217They're completely different games, though prime has aged far better
>>750184439>most people had not until these two games came out to critical acclaimbullshit
troid
>>750184236As I recall it was mostly pushed by journos (back then primarily in magazines)
Metroid is the most astroturfed game of all time. QTE33 is a close second
>>750184439Nailed it.
>>750183310>Halo 2 is amazing but 1 is just ancient trashIt's crazy how much people love 1 to me, it just feels awful to play and the game itself lacks so much of what 2 and 3 have to offer.
>>750184756You can't understate how much of a leap Halo CE -> Halo 2 was. It was incredibly ambitious, and Bungie wanted to push the Xbox to its limits, and had to scrap half of the game. Most of the ideas for Halo 3 and ODST were supposed to be for Halo 2.
>>750183217Halo. Prime games are overrated as fuck by tendies
>>750184960Cut 'em some slack, it's the only real FPS game they have
Halo 2 > Prime >>> CE
>>750184756>It's crazy how much people love 1 to meBetter graphics, better levels, better story, more balanced pve, non-regenerated health bar
Both are pretty mediocre/bad honestly.Like yeah you have Phendrana Drifts and Silent Cartographer, but then you also have the Omega Pirate and the Library, and so much tedious sludge in-between those extremes for both games.I replayed CE's campaign in the past month so it's fresher on my mind, but I think I'd still probably give the win to Prime? Kind of hard to say.
>>750184439Metroid Prime is first person for sure, but not a shooter. If the only point of comparison is the first person camera, then you might as well include Deus Ex and Morrowind in the thread.
>>750185416better multiplayer too
I enjoyed my time playing CE back in the day on Custom Edition, the campaign had a lot of replay value and the sandbox encourages playing around.
