Which is your all time favourite console (taking the games for it into consideration)? Mine would have to be the Megadrive. And also which consoles do you/have you own(ed)? Strange 70s plug into TV Pong-thing, Nes, Snes, Megadrive, N64, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance, PSOne, Dreamcast. |

megadrive? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
sega genesis |
||||||||
|

I have owned: NES, SNES, Gameboy, Super NES, Playstation. I would have to say out of all of then, the NES was my fav. but I sold it to my brother so I could get the SNES. That was really stupid I know. Mind you the SNES was good too. |

THE ATARI JAGUAR!! YEAH!! YOU WERE SO COOL WITH THAT THING BOY!! YOU WERE SLICK!! ;-) |
||||||||
|

I learnt after swapping my first genesis for a snes never to get rid of an old console. The nostalgia of getting it out in a few years far exceeds and small "cash back" in part exchange or sale. |
||||||||

Sega Dreamcast is my favourite of all time :) I love it so very much! Own/Owned: Atari 2600, NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, Vectrex, Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Gameboy Advance, Megadrive, Saturn, Dreamcast, Playstation, Playstation2. |

They recently (for only about 2 weeks) had them in all the South Wales games shops. They also had atari lynxes and Game gears (all brand new) for sale. IT was really weird, they must have had a load in a warehouse they'd forgotten about. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The only console I've ever had is the DC. I bought it really cheap (550SEK) last summer. Mainly because of Crazy Taxi and CT2. -P |

im younger then most here (merely 16) so i never got into the atari shit, etc... ive owned an NES, SNES, Playstation, and now a PS2... and out of all of them... games wise, id say SNES or Playstation.. simply because im an rpg addict, and both systems had great rpgs... and yea, like thegroover said: megadrive? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
SNES! |
||||||||

The Megadrive is the European (and australian?) name for the Sega Genesis. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
SNES, the excitement of a new game was much higher than it is now. I must have read the reviews of Starfox and Zelda a million times I have owned: Atari 2600, NES, SNES, Gameboy, PSX and now I use emulators. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i own almost all the systems out ther, ps2 is the best so far |
||||||||
|
|

|

And Japanese too I believe Ceri |
||||||||
|
|

|

"The Megadrive is the European (and australian?) name for the Sega Genesis." Yes it is! And don't forget our New Zealand friends too :) I'd say it was called Megadrive in all PAL territorys |
||||||||

No wait a sec. I thought the mega drive was sega's 8 bit console like nintendo's NES. Did sega make an 8 bit console? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Segas 8-bit, master system |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ceri, what is/was your favourite game on the Dreamcast? When I find out someone has/had a DC I always gotta ask! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I only got one about 6 months ago, I probably play Crazy Taxi 2 most- my girlfriend likes it and always insists on playing it when she comes over. I'm not sure about an absolute favourite, either Soul Calibur (Tekken 4 is rubbish in comparison) or MSR. How about you? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I bought Stunt Race FX, F Zero and "Pop and Twin Bee" for the Snes this weekend. Great retro fun! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sega Genesis was 16-bit ... so Master System was 8-bit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
F zero was great |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've owned all F-Zero games so far. Have you heard about the next one? Sega AND Nintendo are working on it! Sega are totally in control of development of the arcade version. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm not sure about an absolute favourite as well! I just can't pick! It would be out of MSR, Soul Calibur, Shenmue or Jet Set Radio. Most people think I'm crazy but when I first heard news about the new Sega console I felt that this was the console for me. I felt somehow contected to it (Yes, I'm not on drugs!!) lol I'm such a Dreamcast holic, I buy anything with a Dreamcast logo on it, I watch Arsenal games purely to see the logo!! (BTW, Go the Gunners!!) I just love it so much, I'm very passionate about the whole thing and very angry how it all turned out :( Still the ones who missed out have missed a lot of great gaming (IMO). Been playing heaps of Rez lately! Long live Sega!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, all the F-Zero games are excellent. Can't wait to see what Sega do with the arcade version!! And I forgot to include Resident Evil CODE: Veronica in my DC faves. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've got all the games you said as favourites! I really can't think of any Dreamcast games I *HAVE* to get - I've got all the classics... Its a shame that in games as in music so much is due to successful marketing rather than the quality that decides what gets bought... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They're remaking code veronica (along with 5 other Res games) on the gamecube. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
everyone must own a ps or ps2, cause if you dont thatmeans you dont own any wipeouts or rez, and you must own them, because they own all. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yay!!!! im an "old daddy" now! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ha ha, but Nintendo has exclusive rights to all future rez games inc. res 4! I own a PSOne and play PS2 a fair bit, but I've never been a big fan. I prefer Nintendo/sega games. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh and Wipeout came out on N64 and PC and all PSOne versions of res are on the PC :) |
||||||||
|
|

"Its a shame that in games as in music so much is due to successful marketing rather than the quality that decides what gets bought..." I totally agree with you. I forgot to mention Toy Commander. It's rather under-rated. It's so addictive and fun, it's clear it was made and crafted with so much love! It's such a pity that Toy Commander's developers No Cliché went out of business. They were developing this awesome horror title called Argatha. It will probably never be released :( It just make me really mad whtn lots of crap games come out and some really talented people can't get their games released because there system is regarded as uncool or people don't know or don't care about it because it does not have successful marketing. Gamers Republic was like my bible, until it finished because probably of poor sales. It seems as if every 'hardcore' gaming mag has vanished (Next Gen, Game Fan, GR etc). Pity, Gamers Republic was my favourite mag, always supported the Dreamcast. The design was second to none (IMO), they loved gaming and it really showed. And on many occassions in their top 5 most listened to CD's Aphex Twin was there many times!!! =D I'll stop ranting now! I gotta get some sleep! |

isn't there only one rez game? that just came out for ps2 recenetly, the one i just got |
||||||||

I think the DC is the best next gen console out of the PS2, Gamecube, and Xbox. The graphics are better than the PS2 & Gamecube and the games are better than the Xbox (Even though they got the MSR sequel- project gotham :( ). It's also much cheaper and has 4 joypad ports as standard and a modem included. And it make a great noise as it connects to the internet! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think Electronic Gaming Monthly is the only 'hardcore' gaming mag there is now. What magazines do you all like? I like EGM. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe, but as of a few days ago, all future rez game rights have been guaranteed to nintendo systems. They're also remaking ALL the existing ones (except survivour) for the Gamecube. I only have Res 3 on the PSone. It's good, but not really my kind of game. |
||||||||
|

Rez = United Games Artists game that came out on Dreamcast. If Sega never lost so much money and had to abandon the Dreamcast hardware Rez would have been Dreamcast exclusive. Sigh, so many great titles no one knows about. Atleast with the Dreamcast's faliure more people are getting to play their games, like Asche XL! Rez rocks! Res/sometimes Rez = short name for Resident Evil. Nintendo do have the series exclusive! That's what Ceri means when he says of the 4 rez games! Probably!! |

I don't read mags, I just read digitiser (daily teletext videogame magazine) and company newsletters I subscribe to. |
||||||||

| |||||||||
|
|
Sorry, You're talking about "rez" the PS2 shooter. I assumed you meant rez = resident evil, it's an abbreviation I'd seen before :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Rez = wild music-ish shooting game from Sega/UGA. Res/Rez (short names for Resident Evil) = survival horror from Capcom. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh ok yeah, REZ is a game REZ a brand new "shooter" game , set to an awesome score |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like EGM too :) I've heard Digitiser was rather anti-Dreamcast! Just going by UK Dreamcast mags :) |

I like PSM & OPM |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I cant wait for the Resident Evil remake on Gamecube! It's gonna be sweet! Theres some Ken Ishii in REZ! I gotta import the soundtrack, excellent music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Is rez out on the DC then?! I must have it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

"lol we keep posting at the sametime, repeating eachother" lol yeap, it's a wild free-for-all! I've OPM a few times Asche, very good cover art! |

I was playing F-zero today and thinking about rez when I had what is,IMO, a brilliant idea for a game. A very fast futuristic bike game (think extreme-g) where each section of the track has a note. Therefore, the faster you go the quicker the music. When you're stopped it just plays the same note again and again (this could be used like the 3 starting beeps in racing games at the very start of the race. Third note and you're off!), when driving the wrong way, the music would play in reverse. You could even make it so that you could put your own music CD in and it'd generate a tracka round it (like Vib Ribbon.) What do you lot think? |

The PS2 is my favourite console, then in second place my old N64 I used to have! BTW - I'm glad to see that the XBOX is doing so badly!!! He he he ! ! |
