PS 3's Resistance trilogy VS Xbox 360's Perfect Dark (XBLA)/Perfect Dark Zero, which was most solid shooter guys?

While i enjoyed Resistance trilogy very much, but i'm voting for Perfect Dark Zero just for nightclub mission.Very stylish mission design and music :)

Don't make a false equivalence, Resistance released around the time of Gears of War, they were at the launch compared with one another non-stop, much of the time Resistance was being hailed as the PS3's Gears of War. If anything these two game series should be compared and still be compared. That comparison stopped after Uncharted, which then became a Gears vs Uncharted dialog, probably because they were both TPSs that sported that Kill.Switch style cover shooting and were both their consoles' killer apps. Then again I still thought Resistance and Gears were more comparable given their shooter-centric natures and basically about humanity fighting off an alien aggressor.

Well, regardless, Resistance was horrible. As far as TC's topic goes I'd almost choose Perfect Dark by default, "almost" given that I haven't played Perfect Dark so I can't say for sure, but if I were a betting man, my money would be on nothing coming close to being as bad as RFOM was.

I didn't like the second game either. I think it's interesting the mixed reaction people give the third game. I didn't play that. Some people liked it most, some people who liked the previous two games hated the third. Maybe it's the series best game, but I haven't played it yet to know for sure.

One has Resistance 3, one of the best FPS games of the last gen, the other doesn't.

This is like trying to compare F.E.A.R. to Halo, they're completely different games aiming to accomplish completely different things...

This thread lacks a need to exist.

Resistance 1 and 2 suck, but Resistance 3 is a good game. Perfect Dark Zero is lame, but OG Perfect Dark has cool ideas when you get over those archaic ass controls and shooting mechanics.

Would lean towards Resistance 3.

Difficult to compare really an N64 game + a launch game vs a launch game and 2 sequels on the PS3. I would say Perfect Dark franchise overall, but today its hard not to think Resistance 3 is the best of the bunch, just because of advancements in the FPS genre. Playing Perfect Dark N64 re-release is more nostalgia than a great experience.

The worst Resistance game shits all over Perfect Dark Zero on its worst day. Bought a 360 for that game and wasn't too happy afterward. The original Perfect Dark though = masterpiece that no Resistance game can touch, and the Resistance games are pretty solid overall. Personally didn't like the way the remaster of Perfect Dark on XBLA felt at 60 frames though.

Perfect Dark>Resistance3>Resistance2>Resistance>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Perfect Dark Zero.

Resistance 3 is better than any Perfect Dark game so that.

PDZ 81 % Meta

Resistance 1 85%

Resistance 2 87%

Resistance 3 83%

The only great PD game was on N64 the rest were OK and lower rated on xbox 360,Resistance was a great game that WORKED great online unlike Gears which was a good looking with mediocre online play.

Bullet lag,host advantage issues,disconnects and the game was 4 vs 4,Resistance was 40 players 20 vs 20 and smooth as butter with some of the coolest weapons ever to touch a FPS,the second one was even better.

Perfect Dark Zero is honestly one of the worst first person shooters I have ever played. Repetitious, flat gunplay, confusing levels, an awful story, braindead AI. It really felt like an N64 title in every way save for graphics. I owned it at launch and remember hating it. Resistance, on the other hand, is an excellently crafted if slightly uninspired series. I still think the original had one of the best FPS campaigns of the last generation -- the pacing was spot on. Resistance 2 was decent albeit a disappointment, and Resistance 3 really did the original justice. Felt like the sequel 2 should have been. Overall a great series and in no way should it ever be compared to the trash that was PDZ.

I've never played Perfect Dark, but I didn't mind the Resistance games (especially 2).
