I vote for PC, where is that on there?

technically, you can play all of the above gameing console by PC (power of the emulators!)

well, you probably have to wait awhile for the box's emu and p2x's emu. but you get my drift.

Well seeing PC isnt a console I vote NONE, wheres that button?! Consoles suck! When they make a console upgradable (than they wont be a console anymore) I might consider buying one.... well probably not.

man thats not funny
wheres the orginal nitendo come on that was so cool.
PC is the best. i say this all the time "PC is the best thing in the world. PC can over power any console anytime". check out the AMD 64 that is like the best gaming proccer in the world Twisted Evil . i wish i can buy it $900 (around there).

all the advaces in consles over the last years have just been taking them closer to a small pc that uses a t.v. screen as a monotore. if they keep at it they will just take a cheep no name pc and slap an x-box or w/e logo on it and it will be a consle.

i find it interesting how some take consoles and make computers out of them. More specifially - that time when a load of PS2 concoles were hooked up in a network to form a supercomputer does whatever teraflops

PC = You don't get bored of the game very fast ;D.
Other consoles you finish the game and then you have to buy a new one :S.
Unlike PC there are patches and etc ;D (mods also)

i suppose the reason for PC offering a better gaming experience is still the mouse Laughing I mean come on... WASD pwnz any controler layout in any FPS.

Well it depends on your interpretation of the timeline. Does it mean which systems were still available? Or which systems premiered during those years?

If it's the former, then you should seriously add SNES and Genesis to the group. The fact that they spawned hits like Castelvania (SNES > NES), Sonic, FF, Street Fighter and loads of other games makes them worthy competition. Fuck Windwaker, I'd rather kick back and travel to the End of Time in Chrono Trigger. Besides, the PS1 was still in its first year in 95, and SNES and Genesis were the big competitors up until about 97.

Of course, my heart still goes out to the PS1, which sports better imports than Saturn, better graphics than N64, WAY more selection of games and peripherals. And for a cheapskate like me, nothing beats having 200 games in your collection and only paying a fraction of those sucker Nintendo fanboys.

plus the fact that ps1 could be modded and picked apart in so many ways.........

ps1 is the one thing that made Chinatown oh so popular today. That and dimsums.

Well Mr. Azn I didn't know if you meant when they were made. SNES and SEGA are kickass and PS! is pretty decent as well. No need to be harsh there.

I ENJOYED THE SATURN , i had mine modded when i lived in england but its no use to me over here any more becasue canada dosent produce saturn games and i dont think htey ever did

Post subject: 

saturn had a pretty good import line-up. since it was obvious from the start america would be producing crap the japanese developers stepped up. saturn has pretty good fighting games and shooters. not a bad system if you get it modded, even better if you live in china or japan

Maverick, I hope when you said SEGA you mean SEGA GENESIS. well, the other sega consoles are good too, but genesis just owns.


so... um... shorthair... I read the list three times and still didn't find Sega Genesis up there... what's wrong with you?

Dreamcast, it was the easiest Modding of a console ever. No ModChip required just a boot disc which you can now get from other places

what's not to like about the PS2? best japanese games in town fools.

FFX-2, Capcom vs. SNK 2, Guilty Gear XX, Disgaea, NBA 2K2 (though admittedly XBOX usually beats it out in the quality of a same sports game), whatever.
