Is RARE and Bungie and Retro Studios the only companys that can make really good console FPS

  • Golden Eye  9.8
  • Pefect Dark  9.9
  • Pefect Dark Zero 9.0
  • Halo 9.7
  • Halo 2 9.4
  • Metroid Prime 9.7
  • Metroid Prime Echos 9.1

The both hold records for the best FPS on consoles the seem to do stuff right only if we could get them together to make a new IP.

Metroid Prime is a FPS adventure game so it counts as a FPS

For one, it was 9.1. And two, you're a fool for calling Metroid Prime an FPS.

No, Resistance's average at GameRankings isn't above 90%, it's just a good FPS, not a great one, so to speak.

i said its not ur traditional fps read the whole thing, just because its different doesnt mean its not. first person perspective and u shoot. first person shooter. with platforming, action, adventure style gameplay sheesh and im sorry i was wrong about the second score but the first one is right and it did do good. no offense but i like other console shooters better than pdz personally. like timesplitters i wan a fourth installment in that one.

Ahh, don't blame him...I believe the score used to be 9.4 before they changed it(deservingly).

Metroid Prime is First Person Adventure, but I have to agree it's superb I loved the first one so much, it's style was so refreshing.

Even though over 26 gaming sites and magazines gave the game AAA status, You still think it's just a 'good' FPS and not a SUPERB game. I feel your logic is very flawed.

Metroid Prime is not in any way a FPS.  The only game in that series that plays even close to an FPS is Hunters. 

The answer to your question is "no."  Timesplitters 2 was the best multiplayer FPS of the last gen.

If you're referring to the abysmal framerate of their games on the 64, that's understandable, but if you're talking about controls and level design and features, then you're definitely wrong.

Rare used to be good, but now, not really. And who knows about Halo 3. Bungie will eventually make something other than Halo first person shooters, and that will determine their worth.

This is gamespot. RFOM got a 8.6 "great", get over it. It flopped with all the hype.

As long as you put "adventure" into the mix when describing MP I won't flame you:wink: but no, others are good as well. Out of the three, Bungie is the only company that is known for their FPS games.

Just because they haven't had a 9.9 in the past few years doesn't mean thay aren't still awesome, most companies never gat a score like that.

You put PD0 on the same page as PD64. That is just plain unforgivable herecy.
