which FPS had a bigger effect on console FPS's

What did goldeneye actually do other than split screen multiplayer?BodyElite

It was one of the first successful FPSs on a console. Other than Perfect Dark (which was developed by the same people who developed GoldenEye) it was the biggest FPS of its day probably.

Why does there always have to be one.skrat_01

This. Both games were essential for the development of the genre on consoles. You can't exclude either for the sake of some popularity contest which Halo will undoubtedly win.

I would say Halo CE (for consoles). With it's introduction of dual analog support, 2 weapon carry system, regenerative health, dedicated melee/grenade button, and it's MP i would say more modern day shooters (consoles again) imitate this scheme more than any other console FPS of the past.

Dual analog - Timesplitters

2 weapons - Team Fortress, Counter-Strike, some other less-known mods

Dedicated melee button - Duke Nukem 3D

Dedicated grenade button - Team Fortress

Regenerative health in the modern sense - Call of Duty (Halo 1 had regenerative shield)

And tell me what is special about it's MP? XBL online play first appeared in Halo 2

goldeneye ,

fpses exploded after goldeneye, -those saying halo better look through n64s library first and before hand

goldeneye was the first ever first person shooter to get 2 game of the year awards and become a million seller on consoles,

before it doom tried on snes, but failed to do so , ,

and goldeneye has such strong cult following that not only did we have goldeneye

we had perfect dark , timesplitters 1 2 and 3 pdxbla and the remake on the wii , all have similarities to the original goldeneye ,

then theres even a mod for halflife 2 so ya , pretty much goldeneye set a standard,

halo didnt do much to different it self from that formula, all they added was rechargable health ,

and online for consoles, thats the only areas id say halo helped in ,

other then that , goldeneye was the one that had the biggest affect on not just console fps but movie to game tie ins

wrong

2 weapons-goldeneye without cheats the following weapons could be dual weilded -pp7 pp7 silence dd44 klobb zmg 9mm throwing knives and in the jungle you can also hold a grenade launcher and rcp90 together , plus with the all guns cheat every gun nearly was dual weilded , and theres a trick to do exactly what you could do with that rcp90 and grenade l to other weapons

set buttons-dukenukem 3d

dual analog -timesplitters

map maker-timesplitters-akin to halo 3s forge

online halo 2 -i think

multiplayer -goldeneye

multiplayer with ai-duke nukem 64

coop -hexen 64 /dukenukem 64

legendary mode -goldeneye- had 007 mode which is the equivielent but you can change the settings so ya,

co op mission mode-perfect dark duke nukem 64 isnt mission based so i cant say that one was the first

counter op-i think perfect dark was the first may be the only where one player can be the bad guy and one player is the good guy

[QUOTE="Mrmccormo"]None of the above? Half Life, Deus Ex, Battlefield, Counterstrike, and Tribes had more of an effect on console FPSs than Halo or Goleneye. Or was the question "which CONSOLE Fps had a bigger effect on console FPSs?"?Fusiondonut

You made it look like Halo introduced these things. And how the hell did you play those games before I did? Did you have a time machine in the early 90's? :roll:

Goldeneye was influenced by Quake and Doom, and its influence was only to show console gamers that FPSs are a fun genre to play.Mrmccormo

i think halo

Timesplitters, bringing that dual analog control. SAGE_OF_FIRE

This. I don't get why so many belive Halo did anything special, Time Splitters, Goldeneye and Half Life did much more for console FPSes than Halo :S Halo was just another good IP. Oh and FPSes didn't boom after Halo because Halo was so revolutionary but because consoles got online compatibilities. FPSes were present on PCs several years before there was any XBox :S

Dual analog - Timesplitters

Always wondered about this one. Oni was developed by Bungie West exclusively for the PS2. Development started in 1999. Oni was released only a few months after Timeplitters. is it possible that both companies just had the same idea? If thats the case, then Bungie deserves at least some credit I think.

Exclusively? It was developed for the PC first, and then was ported to PS2 by Rockstar Toronto. Great game btw.

Goldeneye because it showed FPS's can work and be popular on consoles, Halo did the same thing but years later so 1st in gets the recognition imo
