Neutral.

All very well in chemistry, but doesn't work in the games world.

Everyone is fed up of arguments over which console is the best. I'm not just referring to these forums here, either - take games mags for example. Have you tried to count the number of times a single format mag has got letters about how they shouldn't slatie other consoles, or has boasted it makes no comparisons so as to remain impartial?

I can't stand it. It's a bad thing, not a good one. Maybe a particular console plays the games you like, and you're happy with that, but by saying that whether it is the best or not "doesn't matter", and ignoring the other consoles with their strengths and weaknesses, you're putting your head in the sand. If your console 'loses' the console wars badly, then it's not going to produce any more of the games you like! Did you ever consider that the other console might also play games you like?

A console is an investment, and so should be purchased with the future in mind. Unless of course, you can afford to buy it just for the current crop of games, which is unlikely to be true in any situation other than the end of the console's lifespan.

It IS a competition out there. The rivalry may be irritating at times, but ignoring it is not the answer. It won't do you any good. You should care whether your console is the best, or how far short of greatness it falls.

I want the console I buy to be the best on the market. Is that so bad?

I try to stay neutral in most matters until I have tried them.

sony is better then nintendo

only because ......( what the hell is the nickname for you sony owners?) anyway, MK is the best 4 player cartoony racer( in my opionion. DKR is the best sinlge player( in my opinion)

Good.

Ortega: The first Ninty ever to let it go.

i'll just say nothing then...

Well, I have played MK, and IN MY OPINION Rollcae is way better.

But that's my opinion. Please don't go saying that Mario Kart is better like is a FACT.

none of them matched Mario kart. Nothing can beat Mario kart. The orginal.

What about WipEout, Rollcage, Micro Machines and Circuit Breakers?

the psx had the best racer in Gran turismo, and the n64 never cam close to matching it with a driving sim. But the N64 was best at the cartoony racers. Not the same as the real thing, but much more fun.

I meant planned racers.

Anyway, the PSone still had far more than the N64 and DC combined.
