Perfect Dark is way better, and I like Goldeneye 007 too, it brought me to the FPS genre, but Perfect Dark added more and nearly perfected it(for it's time), can't wait for the updated XBLA version this winter!

Ya its a hard comparison. Both are fun, and both are great. I guess it just came down to personal preference with me.

Perfect Dark is the better game, though both are very similar. Perfect Dark just runs on an updated enegine of the Goldeneye game, but added a lot to the multiplayer and had a pretty good single player.

Around $15, maybe $20, who knows for sure, though $15 is highly likely.

Yes, I think PD's multiplayer was better. The bots were amazingly fun. However, I think that Goldeneye's single player was way better and the game as a whole left a better experience.

Anyone who says Goldeneye is better is misguided and blinded by nostalgia. Perfect Dark was better in almost every single way possible. Except maybe GE had better music, which is arguable. But that's it. Perfect Dark is improved in so many ways, it's impossible to count.

Bingo. But apparently, looking people's votes, her butt isn't enough to nullify nostalgia. :(

That sucks, I hope the XBLA version fixes that, because I know it'll look better.

I enjoyed both, but I preferred the scifi elements in PD over Goldeneye. And yes, the bots were awesome.

I agree, it's a shame many don't have bots, this gen only Perfect Dark Zero, Gears of War 2 and Killzone 2 are shooters with bot support.

I never can understand why game makers don't insert them. Especially earlier Wii games that didn't have online support. (Aka. Red Steel, Call of Duty 3) I remember playing 007 Nightfire (GCN) for years just because of the replay value bots gave.

They're lazy, LOL, did you know the Halo games were going to have bots but Bungie complained about them being too hard to program. Also, Unreal Tournament 3 has bots, forgot about that game, though many don't like it, I find Unreal Tournament 2004 better though.

I'd say that is extreme laziness. Developers 10+ years ago could make great bots with limited resources, it should be a walk in the park now.

Perfect Dark is so much better than Goldeneye it's ridiculous. However, Goldeneye was still a great game back in the day.

I'm voting for Goldeneye. Why? Framerate. All too often, Perfect Dark had a framerate under 20. GoldenEye didn't have as much of a problem with that.

EDIT: Nevermind. I'm calling it a tie.

a tie for me perfect dark improved on goldeneye in a lot of areas .. enemies could do martial arts, more blood, secondary modes on guns, more in-depth multiplayer etc but goldeneye has charm .. i like the real-world setting, and it did such a brilliant job of capturing the movie without losing the fun i simply love both!

Its funny that goldeneye is the best movie tie in game ever, yet the last gen and "current gen" consoles fail SOO hard at them.

Perfect Dark was so much more fun multiplayer. I remember you could create your own character and had more variety of weapons and they had secondary functions

Goldeneye smokes PD, how is it down in votes???

Cicatraz_ESP

In what ways does Goldeneye beat Perfect Dark? Oh wait it doesn't beat it in anything.

Not multiplayer

Not Campaign either with Co-op and Counter-op
