| | I was just thinking back in the good old days lwhen the ps1 first came out. It was like $600. Would people still pay that much today? Then ps2, $700. I think that these gaming consoles are a little bit overated when they first are released.

what do you mean by overrated? If you mean, ps1 was $600 when first launched and ps2 was $700 when first come, it doesn't have to be overrated. It can be when ps1 launched the technology was expensive by that time, thankfully ps2 born in more advance tech, so the price is a bit pressed.

From the original NES, to Sega, Super Nintendo, N64, and finally GameCube, I have had my share of consoles and games. I used to love playing console games, but since I got a computer I realized that games are much better on a proper machine. I don't see why one should buy a console when there are plenty of good games available on computers that can offer a lot more than consoles. But it is true that since consoles are designed specifically for games, there are a lot more to choose from when going with a console.

What Would Life Be Like Without Game Consoles/handhelds?

We always ask what life would be like without computers, but did we ever stop to think what our life

practically thousands of things that our life might feel empty without, so maybe we should start

Semi Classic Gaming
- NES SNES N64 (5)
I remeber the good old days with NES and SNES and N64. last summer I got my hands on a NES and a
SNES but i was only able to find games at one store in a town I was visiting 6 hours away from where
i live. needless to say, i bought the good games i could afford, but it leaves my normal longing
for some 8 bit fun unsatisfied. then last weekend i walked into a replay ( a store that sells old
movies and games) and they had N64 games and games for SNES and NES. it was awesome. I still am
looking for a N64 for myself, and I almost picked up 007 goldeneye for the 64. I ...

games, I was 7 years old at the time, and had a blast. But alas, times have changed and now i'm

games i like to some f the consoles for example Halo is a xbox only game, metal gear solid is a
playstation only game and i think not sure about this one but i think super smash brothers is a

Consoles Vs Pc
- (69)
i prefer to play the games in my pc than in a console ... 1. the load faster 2. the look better
(graphics) 3. you can customize some of them (gta) 4. in general the performance is better i think
that the best versions of the games are for the pc ... for example hitman 2 and all the gta games,
for the 3 to the san andreas ... some consoles offer you to play dvd movies and mp3 files ... but
pc also do that ... and a laptop can be moved ever where ... i think a gaming console is good when
it has exclusive games for it that you cant play them anywhere but in that console...
Old School Consoles
- (22)
I don't know if it's just me, but even though I keep up to date with the newest consoles,
there's always an 8 or 32 bit space left in my heart for the NES or Super Famicon/SNES. Sure,
they're a little less advanced, but they're still fun to play every now and then, even
though I've beaten most of them at least 10 times. Super Mario World's an example. That
game was fun to even walk around in. Besides that, it was easy to learn, but took time to master the
controls of things like the cape's hovering to dodge the jumping fireballs in the la...

Ive Been Revolutionized About Gaming

I was just surfing until I accidentaly happened to see some more nintendo revolution and I decided
to investigate about it. I was totally impressed, I read a lot of the details (controller, backwards
compatability, wifi, etc.) and I bet that there is still some more to come. Seriously, I thought I
had matured and that I wouldnt like games anymore after the xbox got a bit boring about a year ago.
I wasnt even excited about the xbox 360 release, I was really careless about the new consoles and
video games, and now that I read about the revolution, its like if the inner gam...
A Buyer's Guide To Portable Gaming

The balance of power in the handheld game market experienced a significant upset two years ago when
Sony used their press conference at E3 2003 to announce the development of the Playstation Portable.
At the time, Nintendo held utter dominance of the portable game market with over 90% market share
thanks to the Gameboy, and now, the Nintendo DS. Just by the very announcement, though, Sony kicked
the gaming media into overdrive. In the hallway outside of Sony’s studios, where the press
conference was held, you could hear comments like, “It’s going to be great,” and, “Way...

Favorite Gaming Console
- (8)
My favorite console is Xbox. Most people say that their favorite system is the system(s) they have.
That is because they don't want the person they are talking to to make fun of them. Well, I am
one of those people. I have played both GC and PS2. I like PS2 better than GC partially because of
the games and graphics. GC has more "kid" games. PS2 has more violent and racing games. I like the
Xbox games better than PS2 and GC games. That's why I like Xbox the most. After you vote in the
poll, please make a post saying what you voted for and why you voted for it....
