Best Game System Ever

And...wouldn't you know it, most of those are available on other consoles, at cheaper prices and with better controllers to play them with.

I will admit that the Dreamcast isn't terrible, but I find it strange that anyone would completely overlook the plain fact that there aren't very many good games for it (and in fact, not very many games at all).

As for its other "amazing" features, the online on it is gone now, and I'd rather use something else to play my CDs, very much.

I'm with you on the fact that its weird to pull the DC card in a debate as this one. But how the F**k could you forget Shemune? That was like the main reason for me not throwing my DC into the trash-can and getting something else.

Thats all i had to say on the subject. Otherwise, well put.

Atari beats everything ever made.

Because in Shenmue, it takes forever for anything to actually happen. Overly realistic environments are cool and all, but it doesn't amount to much when you're simply walking around and talking to people for hours. Not to mention an ending that forces you to buy the second game if you actually want to know how things end.

It's not terrible, but I certainly consider it overrated. I'm not much for the initial boredom. It gets better, yeah, but that doesn't make the bad stuff disappear.

Uh, which Atari? I really hope you're talking about the 2600.

Taste is like the ass, divided. ^_^

But yeah, when you put it that way then the fighting games was what kept DC alive as long as it did. Wow..... why aren't there any good 2d fighting games coming out anymore? Capcom should give us Street fighter in 2d instead of this 3d shit they are coming with.

Yeah, I'd really enjoy another game like Street Fighter III: The Third Strike. Or even a new Marvel vs. Capcom or something. Soul Calibur and Dead or Alive 2 are decent...but the re-release of DOA2 on the PS2 is better, and SC2 is so much better than the first that it's ridiculous.

n64 and the 360 nuff said. but playstation had its shining moments but thats all in the past now.

Atari is #2 in my list...one of the oldest but most entertaining. I remember the control with the one red button and its huge joy-sick. Some fun times I had with that console.
Then SNES comes in third or fourth(debating against XBox)

[wi_sam]

will here in the meddle east PS1 is the #1 system but there is this thing called ATARI or somthing i dont remmbre , that one was sooo popular here too .
And the psp is the AWSOMEST of them all cuz u can play all kinda games on it i play gameboy games , snes AND ps1 games . i tell u its awsome

[quietchat]

I have to say it's a toss up between the N64, Playstation and the Super Nintendo

i could never get into play station there are a few awesome games out there for it. N64 set the standards for 3d gaming back then along with Super Mario 64 which was awesome pretty fun on the DS also. i'm stuck between nintendo wii and x-box 360 i love both of them. Wii for the revolutionized controllers and the 360 for the graphics and the games on it.
