Trust me though, the best games on Xbox and Gamecube are usually the ones that don't get as much attention.

At least if you've decided to hate everything that's popular.

And yes, SNES was the best console ever.

*NES

Mario Bros > anything :

I totally agree...like Shenmue 1 and 2...you guys ever played that? That left me breathless.

I don't know much about consoles nowdays... but I've been checking some newest games in local markets and I've seen more interesting looking games for PS2. Anyways, games and consoles are so overpriced that I might buy PS2 or Xbox or something after few years if they are cheaper then.

Bah, give me NES or SNES anyday! Those two are good enough for me!

PS. I found this thread amusing.

I have been waiting for so long for a xbox or ps2, i'll buy it in like 2 years. but yeah nes or snes are the best...its just the graphics of some games on the xbox and ps2 that would leave me drooling for it...i could always use the pc, tho'

Emulators aren't the same....

btw: Shenmue 1 ... bloody awesome game!

* [lgm] owns a Dreamcast and Shenmue 1.. It's all he'll ever need.

Also.. I WOULD buy a next-gen console.. But it's worthless when I spend most of my time on the computer.. I can just spend the money to upgrade my system and buy a nifty gamepad. That way, I'd have a kickin computer for games, AND video editing... You can't lose.

I only get on my computer to check my mail, talk to people, and get on the forums here. But when I feel like it I work on a game.

Nintendo is gonna score big on this one! Nintendo president Shigeru Miyamoto has announced that The Legend Of Zelda(working title) is in the making. It is to be released in 2005. It will have the classic Zelda emphasis(i don't know how to spell it).
Adult Link(yes, Adult Link) will be coming back with the boomerang, the bow and arrows, the master sword, and with Epona from Ocarina of Time. So far, it has killer graphics and that old dungeon roaming, boss slashing fun that past games have had(Link to the past,NES Zelda). All you Zelda fans rejoice.

That's OLD news, Rap ^_-

Mr Jake · Tue 24/08/2004 08:04:12

doesnt that Zelda game in the making have releastic type gfx? I dont think it will work ._.

Kinoko · Tue 24/08/2004 14:29:21

It's basically like a more advanced version of Ocarina. I won't judge it much yet, but I had the same reaction of, "Oh... it looks like THAT." I think it'll sell no matter what it looks like - it's a Zelda game. I'm not confident at this stage it'll be a great game. Right now, I'm -much- more excited about the Minish Cap ^_^

R4L · Wed 25/08/2004 00:32:46

Me too. I like how Minish Cap looks!

Sylpher · Wed 25/08/2004 02:02:48

Kinoko.. You are silly. Here is a cookie.

R4L · Wed 25/08/2004 02:32:25

Can I have one?

LGM · Wed 25/08/2004 03:14:27

You are not worthy of Sylpher Brand(tm) Cookies

Kinoko · Wed 25/08/2004 04:40:46

*Kinoko downs it Cookie Monster style!

Yum, yum!

GRAPHICS:

XBox > GCN > PS2

GAMES:

GCN = XBOX >>>> PS2

FUN:

GCN > XBox > PS2

That's all I have to say. Oh, and....

Genesis > all (PWNED)

-DD

What I have:

Graphics:
Xbox: Textures are smoother and prettier and lighting is a tad better.

PS2: More pixely graphics but better than the Gamecube on some games. Textures are less prettier and lighting is just a tad behind the Xbox.

GameCube: The graphics are better than PS2 on some games because of better rendering and bump-mapping of characters and lighting is off by a bit. Textures look the same to me.

Games:

Xbox: Most Xbox games have outstanding control and gameplay.

PS2: Most games have great control and gameplay, but suffer from slowdown or pop-up.

GameCube: Most games have good control and gameplay, some just don't push the gameplay enough. Few games have slowdown or pop-up.

Fun:

Xbox,PS2,GameCube: Depends on the type of game, its controls, its story, its gameplay, and its graphics. A game that blows you away with a great story, awesome graphics, and incredible gameplay immersion makes it worthy.

Sorry, kinda went berserk after replying and I think I typed too much.

With all this talk about which console is better, I wonder if PC gaming really is dead?

What do all you think? Harsh reality or media scare?
