Perfect Dark or Goldeneye?

[evil_mumm_ra]

i've played both of these games, and i've seen goldeneye hailed as the better n64 game. i'm forced to disagree with that though. for me the point where perfect dark was better was the multiplayer. i have not seen another multiplayer game with bots as good as the ones in perfect dark. my friend and i spent hours playing maps on perfect dark with various bots, most notably the kamikaze bots. perfect dark zero for the 360 failed at reproducing the fun we had on his n64 with the original perfect dark. while goldeneye was fun, i'm still leaning towards perfect dark on this one. so which would you choose as the better game, perfect dark, or goldeneye?

I've never played Perfect Dark so i don't have much of an opinion on this, although i loved to play Goldeneye around my friends house when i was younger :lol:

This a weird coincidence, my friends and I pulled out one of their 64's for the first time in probably 6 years and the first thing we played was PD. We all sucked at it too. But I yeah, PD is better, at least multiplayer wise.

Dude, I remember the days when I used to literally camp at my friend's house just to play Goldeneye.

 

 

 

What can I say? That game was the [cabbage].

Perfect Dark, I just thought that it was more fun

 

 

 

although I remember that with both games, everyone would always just go for the short characters so it was harder to kill them

Perfect Dark purely because you could actually jump/fall of ledges, which couldn't happen in GoldenEye. Without that I'd rank them equal, or damn close to equal. The full customization of weapons in MP would probably put Perfect Dark in front tho.

Definitely Perfect Dark for me, I loved that game :thumbsup:

goldeneye was a masterpiece (even got my dad to play it) but perfect dark kind of recreated it. i played goldeneye when i was around 7, and i DID manage to beat the game without unlocking the secret missions.

They were both insanely fun. Deployable laptop guns and bots puts PD a bit higher up in my eyes though.

Wow both of these are great games but yeah I think Perfect Dark is better =P~

Haha, I used to play it at my friends house all the time. Good times.

I haven't played either game all that much, but I do remember perfect dark as being tons of fun :)

[henman888]

Perfect Dark is better in my opinion.

[megakiller32]

They're both must have essentials for the N64, but I liked the Perfect Dark Multiplayer better for the same reason :D

 

It's like James Bond Nightfire's multiplayer, could be the best PS2 multiplayer FPS there is :shock:

[PhaperPlane]

Perfect Dark always, it was an amazing game back in its day.

 

 

 

Yesterday I completed Perfect Dark Zero for the 360, fun game. :

I've played both and Goldeneye makes it into my top 5 video games of all time. Perfect dark isn't even in my top 25...

[Th3_Crusader]

I'll have to play Perfect Dark, but I LOVED Goldeneye. That game kicked [wagon]

I've always enjoyed Goldeneye more then Perfect Dark. I never played Perfect Dark enough to give a solid opinion of which one I think is overall better though. I disliked the 360's Perfect Dark..

so did i, although i didn't play it too much. i've been contemplating renting it to try it again.

[munkis]

perfect dark

 

 

 

although perfect dark was based on goldeneye like most modern FPS is ao goldeneye ftw

 

multiplayer goldeneye was better though but like playing 2 players the single player thingy on PD

[tehpwnage]

Perfect Dark hands down, golden eye was fun but multiplayer had limited weapon combinations and had less cool weapons in general. Perfect dark had voice acting and some of the funnest weapons ever. (If you've ever hide and farsight your friends like crazy with a labtop gun protecting them you'll know what i mean....)

[deathdrow]

perfect dark was waaaay better.

 

Goldeneye was good, but perfect dark was better in so many ways.

[OldJoe]

I like both, but i have to say Perfect Dark... Really fun to play when you are a few!

[BlueLancer]

I've also played both games in my youth with friends... I *always* found Goldeneye 007 to be the better game.

 

 

 

Not only does it have a good 4-player multiplayer mode, it has very interesting missions, details, music, etc. in single player as well. The ratings are deserved... For a pre-2000 game, in it's own genre it's as amazing as Ocarina of Time is in the adventure genre.
