Agreed, I feel the same way about the Dreamcast and Gamecube, but I enjoy the N64 more since it's cartridge based. :)Quote:

Yeah, 90% of the arcade ports were horrible, but then you had games like Night Driver, Omega Race, Jungle Hunt, Breakout and Indy 500, that were pretty close to the arcade game. Phoenix and Ms. Pac-Man weren't too shabby either.Quote:

Don't get me wrong. I have every system on that poll, save TG-16 and NG, and they all have some excellent titles, but if I were limited to only one and wanted the maximum game selection, Playstation is unreal. My jaw drops at the number of titles, something like 7000 games for that system. I can never play them all in my lifetime.
Genesis. It's my favorite game console, so not a tough choice. Honorable mentions go to Saturn, TG16, Dreamcast and N64, all systems I enjoyed quite a bit. For me, though, the Genesis has a better library than these systems, and I typically prefer 2d games to 3d (especially for classic systems).
I would have said PS2, but it's not on the list, failing that it is a tough call between the PSX and the Mega Drive.
Also, when did Sega-16 become filled with Saturn fanboys? The Saturn is tosh.
Sorry mate, but you just lost my vote.Quote:

Seems to me that trying to appeal to Saturn fans is meaningless then.
Also, I agree. The Saturn was what put me off of console gaming back in the day, so it IS tosh. Every console has its "many great games". Doesn't mean I have to like it, though ;)
Maybe it should be called Sega-32?;)Quote:

Fanboys hate anything that which rivals, challenges or threatens their interest. Not hating something isn't a sign of fanboyism. Most people seem to hate the Saturn out of fanboyism though. Being neutral or not caring about something is entirely different.Quote:
