At least someone has a valid arguement. I agree with Ant, there are some very good games on the PSX and I'm glad I've owned one.

Plus, I must point out that Sega have nothing to do with the Bleem project at all, in fact they have not authorised any use of it on the Dreamcast and exactly how is it pirating? It's a program that emulates hardware, not software. You still need the games to run on it.

Does it really matter if Sony don't make their own games??

Also, I'm not a casual gamer.

Also, I bought a PS2 because of the great games coming onto it, not just cos it will have lots of games.

Also, no offence mate, but I'm afraid I'll have to dismiss your comment about the majority of games being crap on PSX as bulls**t.

Yes, there are quite a few poor games, but they're are lots of good games as well, along with a few classics.

Actually sony have really just given permission to anyone to release any old trash on their systems.
The majority of PS games are crap with the exception of a few companies that actually think about what they're releasing.
But despite the large number of smelly lemon games, its the large number that attracted the casual gamers.
And thats the problem with a lot of casual gamers, they buy the console with the most games on the shelf and never wanna even try consoles such as the DC cause they think that a larger number of titles (despite the quality)is the console thats best.

And lets face it, what good games have SONY released ? Not Konami, or Capcom, or Namco, but SONY. Not many.
At least Sega and Nintendo come up with new ideas and great games. Its a lot easier to sit back and advertise while everyone else makes your games for you.

I think you'll find that the "magnificent sony" got most of it's ideas from Nintendo! the final version of the SNES CD-rom was shown to the world just before the break-up between Sony and Nintendo and most of the ideas stayed (including the shpe of the controllers)

SO don't go accusing the great games producer and console creator Sega of stealing ideas!

Once again we have a VERY bias person!

And yes I do know that I'm also very bias!
