Favourite console
« on: October 21, 2008, 07:55:22 AM »
What is everyone's favourite console?

To me, the absolute best console is still the Playstation 2. From everything from the graphics to the controller, it just feels perfect. Sure it has a lot of shitty games, but it also has a lot of awesome games out there. A gigantic list of games, actually. It is also the console that ranks #1 with my quantity of games just because I love it so much.

I love wahtever console that brings me the best games.
Graphics is "Whatever" as long as they surpass the earlier generations. But I'm not a graphic whote who goes "OMG FF5 has so bad graphics. I'll go play my Devil may cry!" No really, I'm not.

There've been a lot of greaaaaaaaaaat games with "meh" graphics. But that's what I like. I totally prefer gameplay and/or story over high detailed graphics. Nintendo showed us that it was possible to make cool effects and graphics with sprites on GBA with Fire emblem.

So yeah....

NES(Just because it got some kick-*** retro games, they were before my time though so I don't own one).
SNES(A lot of revolutionary games like Star Fox and some complete classics like Clocktower, Earthbound, Chrono Trigger ect.)
Nintendo 64(My childhood friend, Super smash, mario kart, super mario 64, goldeneye, star fox again, kirby, banjo kazoiee. Awesome games for an awesome time.)
PS2(Amazing step up from the PS1, loads of good games- LOADS. And it allowed me to finally play FF7-9.)
Wii (Original concept, confortable controlls for us slackers, graphics went up, new generations of classic games. There's nothing bad with this. Sure, a lot of "kid's game" but hey- we all need something to lighten up the day after we've had 4 hours of math and physics.)

DS or PSP???
DS, totally. Graphics are kinda like N64/PS1 but I don't care. A lot of good games. Remakes of classic games and some sequels. Just amazing. PSP only got FF7CC, FF Dissidia and Kingdom hearts on me will probably get one when they are released.

Why do you choose N64 over PS1?
Simply because there wasn't that many games I wanted for PS1, and PS2 was already under production back then. When my father told me that I could only get one - I choosed the console with the games that could entertain me AND my friends.

Why do you choose Wii and not the awesome powers of PS3?
Because PS3 screwed up- They spent too much money on a machine with the best at everything that the price rose too high. With high costs - sales decreased. With bad sales - Gamemakers tried to find and option to sell their games. The solution was 360. Now, nothing wrong with a PS3 - It's just that there aren't that many good games out here yet, once we got Metal gear, devil may cry, resident evil and/or final fantasy xiii I will definatly get one. But for now- It would only be a decoration - an expensive decoration.

So... If the good games will be released for 360 and PS3, why didn't you get a 360?
Good question. And the answer is that most games are graphics there as well. Nothing wrong with that, but all the xbox fandboys goes on my nerves with their Halo talk. If you got a 360- You better get Halo as well or you're a noob apperantly. And I rather stick to FPS with a real crossahair and not a controller stick. That's why I prefer Wii and a computer for FPS. And if I did get a 360, My brother would rape it every day he's home. He would get all those FIFA, NHL, Grand turismo and stuff and I wouldn't see the controller in my hand for the entire week.

Those are jsut my thougths though.

 PS2, and then Wii, and then Sega Genesis, and then PS1.

Does Windows 95 count? XD  If not, a tie between PS1 and PS2.

I can't pick. It's impossible. I love them all so much!

But because it's a cheap answer, I'll go with "PC".

PS2 then... N64. I'm young-ish, so the 64 was my first actual gaming experience. My siblings had the SNES, followed by the Genesis, but they were sold/broken before I really remember any of it. I do remember Vectorman on Genesis though, kinda.

But yeah, PS2 rapes. Pretty much word for word what Drace said, for me.

I wish I had memories of that variety, but I never really had a PS2. I would have gone and got one by now, but the damn things are still $120! That's just too damn much for something that old!

It's still worth it in my opinion. There are some great games for it.
