A few points:

1. I see no '2' after the title for this thread, so Ant, stop saying the PS2 has this and that; (128 bit etc)

2. The N64 has at least 300 games, which is more than enougfh.

3. If you put a top 10 list of games from say, N64 mag, and put them up against the top 10 games of Playstation mag, you would see a clear difference in graphics, size (all the games, not just FF7,8,9) and gameplay, with the N64 coming out as a clear winner.

4. Yes N64 mag is a good read. Better than those narrow minded NOM people.

Hey, I ony mentioned it a couple of times, and I was only using it as reference.

At least 300 games??? Well, I've only ever seen about 100.

Also, maybe in graphics, but in gameplay?? No racer compares to GT2, no shoot 'em up in my opinion lives up to the sheer brilliance of MGS and Zelda is the only one that can match up to Final Fantasy.

Also, Crash would give games such as Banjo and even Mario64 a run for their money.

Actually, I think it would be very close.

Ant:

In N64 mag, their index has over 300 games in it.

WDC, Rush 2049, both have a lot of good points, and easily look better than GT2, while have a huge game underneath.

Perfect Dark beats MGS hands down - Graphics, size, weaponry, charecters, multiplayer, length, etc. I liked MGS, it was a great game, but Perfect Dark is better, although a little different.

Crash? Crahs is just 30/35 levels (a lot yes) of running away from, or towards the screen. Mario- 15, fully 3d levels, and he alone has more moves thatn Crash has. DK64 - 8 massive levels - 4,000 bannanas to collect, 201 golden bannanas etc. Crash is no comparison.

I haven't played the latest Crash games, so I would like to know if they are true 3D, like Mario. Or are they still the same as Crash2? It doesn't matter as I think the game is quality. Just intersted, thats all.

MGS has the best plot and storyline EVER though, and I prefer MGS because of that. But remember, PDark did come out on a more powerful console 2 years later.

Okay, if not Crash then...Spyro. Those levels are full 3D, and it takes a long time to complete!!

Is Mario64 a platformer, though?? I always thought a platformer was like Crash, where you just run down one little pathway. I suppose they've evolved since then.

But I still reckon that GT2 is the best racer out there, I mean, over 600 cars, good graphics and some superb gameplay, it deserves to be.

Crash 3 has a lot more room to move, but isn't true 3D.
