I do not own any "current" generation consoles although I plan to buy a Wii at some point. I also do not own any Microsoft products because Bill Gates is clearly a loser. Down with Micro-penis-soft!
[QUOTE=Vyse of Arcadia][QUOTE=spiggysparks]N64 (Seriously undervalued by you guys, IMO the best system of the generation)This isn't a popular sentiment with most gamers... but I really really do not like RPG's. I keep trying them out, thinking I'm just picking some overrated ones, but I just find them incredibly boring. Mostly these are the PS2 Final Fantasies, but I hated the Pokemon franchise as well. I prefer a Zelda style game (I wanna swing the sword dammit!)Except for its lack of RPGs. Yeah, it had Paper Mario and Ogre Battle 64...but that's it, pretty much. They system had a total of maybe 5 games that enjoyed, one of which (Mario Kart 64) has become increasingly meh with each new release in the series.
I agree with the Dreamcast bit, but I wouldn't write the PS2 off as a bad system. I really wouldn't say that for any of the last generation. They all had their moments, the last-gen consoles.
Why? I betcha there are a ton of awesome GBA games you haven't played yet.
(As a side note, is Beyond Oasis any good? I've heard it plays somewhat similar to a Zelda game. If that's not true ignore please.)
For platformers and FPS, my favorite genres of videogames, the N64 was the king of that generation. My friends and I still play Mario Kart 64, Smash Bros, Mario Party, WWF No Mercy and Goldeneye. For those of you without the ability to gather 4 people together in order to enjoy these games, I can absolutely see why only a few games seem interesting.
The problem IMO with PS2 is it wasn't designed for multiplayer. The addition of the Network Adapter a few years later was nice, but online play cannot compare to sitting around with 3 other buddies while putting down a dollar a race in Mario Kart. X-Box sucked because it had only one worthwhile game (Halo 1), and that was only fun if you had two X-Boxes, two TVs and hooked 'em up for some 4 v 4 with seven of your friends (once again, online just doesn't replicate friends very well).
I am not a hardcore gamer by any means, and my tastes reflect that. The Wii is a refreshing alternative to the 360 and PS3, not so much because of the motion sensing controls (although they are cool), but because it is marketed to people who just want to sit down and have fun for 30 min.
Ms. Pac Man = Awesome
Final Fantasy X = I though FMV games died with the Sega CD
You've obviously never played a PC-FX.Originally Posted by spiggysparks

Well, I understand your stance on the last generation in view of multiplayer. The PS2 and XBox really did suck multiplayerwise. But what about the GC? Super Smash Bros. Melee alone was a helluva lot of fun, let alone Kirby's Air Ride, Mario Kart Double Dash, Starfox Armada...Originally Posted by spiggysparks
As for the 30 minutes of gaming thing, that's precisely why you should keep a GBA around. Do yourself a favor: before you sell it, try out Wario Ware, Drill Dozer, any of the Sonic Advance games, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong.

The "30 minutes of gaming thing" is precisely why I am more of a classic gamer, precisely why I have always been a fan of Sega, and precisely why I prefer Wii to 360 or PS3.
