Which gen is this gen, what gen was last gane and and when is the next gen?

This confises me since differenct mags tend to place different systems at different levels...

Are N64, PSX last gen of this gen?

What gen is the Dreamcast? Is it last gen, or was that the saturn, is it this gen did it lose out before this gen arrived? or is it a cross gen?

If the PS2 is a next gen consoles, how come its been avalible since last year?

And, since the PS2 has been avalible since last year, does this mean GC and X-Box are unreleased this gen systems?

Or has the old systems of classing systems into their generational system spec releases been outmoded since diferent manufactures now work more to thier own time frame than those of others...

Have the console wars become extinct, not because of pacifism and global gameplayer respect because systems come out so far apart they dont compete in the same way ( e.g. as the SNES and Megadrive did?)

Are the multinationals now working to the beat of their own drums, and not that of the gaming community?

PS2 sales compete more with those of the PS1 than of any other console?

Since casual gamers define the sales of the console market. Do machines really compete on the business level, in advertising and product placement over system spec and gamer quality?



Which gen is your gen?

Have the console wars been replaced by the marketing wars?
