"THE FINAL ARGUEMENT"

Well this is it, the one that we've all been waiting for.

Well, the one some... two, well, just one probably, have been anticipating for literally DAYS!


The Final Arguement

This of course, is the FINAL ARGUEMENT. These are the rules.



There we are, that's all the rules done and dusted with, now on to the argueing.

The best console ever. We are not here to give just statements, we are in this topic shout and scream, and generally not back down until we have won.

So, the best console.

The N64. That's me. The beautiful console, which has many EPIC games, and some superb mulitplayer games. Beats even the PS2 at this point, with it's feeble array of "games", it manages to sell, WOW, 17 COPIES OF SMUGGLERS RUN!

You should all be proud.

The Playstation? Utter sh**e. Overhyped, and dying faster than a shark in the desert. The "innvotive" sequel is equally overhyped, and most of the people that own one only wanted one because "everybody else is getting one"...

IF EVERYBODY ELSE IS GETTING ONE, WHY NOT PLAY ON THEIR MACHINE?

Of course, you probably won't get the chance, as they'll all be brought back in a few days, once their senses return.

And the games? As useless as a packet of six to the lone survivor after judgement day.


(By the way, this is all in fun, but this needs to be a rather large arguement, so take it seriously.)

Where are you Grix?

Playstation is for people who play games.
Nintendo is for people who love games.

Look at Chu Chu Rocket! That's one of the most popular mulitplayer games going!

And what's the best multiplayer game on the PS2?...

Err... Time... no... err...

I don't think it there is a decent one out yet, is there?

Graphics do not matter, quality of games does.

Dreamcast rules for now - it has the best games, and next-gen graphics which are comparable to PS2's.

N64 and PSX are okay but it's difficult to enjoy playing on them anymore because the graphics are soooo old. I actually prefer the PSX's jagged graphics to the N64's fuzzy, low polygon count, low-quality texture approach. But I have a PSX, so no surprise there, I guess.

PS2 has no games which deserve more than 8/10. It probably won't get a truly great game until MGS2 comes out, which is coincidentally when the GameCube and X-Box will be released, both of which should offer at least two or three killer launch games, better graphics than present consoles, and easier programmability.

We therefore should all embrace Dreamcast for as long as we can, and forget about the PSX, N64 and PS2 (for now at least).

DREAMCAST RULES (no bias or anything)

You're half right, but I keep saying this, THERE ARE SOME BRILLIANT GAMES FOR PSX!!!!
Also, I wouldn't call it copying. I'd call it using the technology that's available to them. Does that make Sega a copy too???

Nintendo are better, in fact, much better. The playstation has never had any analoge controllers, for example, The Nintendo 64 was the first console to use a 3-D stick.
Soon after, Sony made controllers with two 3-D sticks. And Sony complain about other companies copying them! Well if they are copying Nintendo and other companies, what do they expect? Sony also copied the Rumble feature from Nintendo and improved it by making it built in.
My friend had the choice wether to get a Playstation or a Nintendo 64. He chose Playstation because he thought he would get confused with the controles on the controller. When you play games though, you never get confused.
As for Sonys controller, aiming like in goldeneye would be very difficult, only using a D-pad.

All this suggests that Sony only did well , not because of the so-called brilliant games but the Controllers.

Errrrrrrrrrr.......no.
I'm getting a PS2 for the top class games like MGS2 (which will be loads better than the boring and repetitive Zelda and Metroid or whatever) and GT3. The DVD and the facts that it plays PSX games and that it looks better is an added bonus for me.
So while you wait for a year (or knowing Nintendo, 2-3 years), I will be playing classique games like TimeSplitters, GT3 and MGS2, which hasn't been delayed ONCE yet.

PS- This argument will get repetitive as I'm saying the same stuff as I said last time. Get some DC and X-BOX fans in here.

I saw the words soon to come in the midsts of your babbling, and I would like to point out a few little things.


When the Gamecube comes out, next Christmas, it will have Zelda, Mario, Metriod, and loads of REALLY good games, far superior to MSG2, which is the only decent game actually coming to the console.

So while I wait one year for my console, as well as some truly EPIC games, you get lumbered with the furred place.

(Heh heh heh heh...)

And the only reasons why people are buying a crappy PS2 are:

Plays DVD's.
Play's all their old PS games as well.


NO OTHER REASONS!

The fact it plays PS2 games, is an "extra" to them! It's unbelievable!

So while I'll be happy learning about the many games I'll be playing in a year, you'll be depressed learning more about the game, that's been delayed seven times already, that you'll be playing in two years.

It was Grix who started it.

Oh you mean these: ******************???????
