So, I know who you all side with, Ant...Playstation, Sniper...Nintendo, but which is the better, Nintendo...according to the system specs anyway, the machine on the whole is much more advanced, although the Playstaion does have CD's and it looks as though Nintendo will NEVER have a CD format game!!!The Playstation was released earlier and has a much higher list of games...but then again more of Nintendo's Games are raved about and Nintendo do have Rare, a VERY good asset in my book, valuable as well!
I think that the best console would be the N64 but overall the Playstation, despite the inferior capabilities has shown a better performance, but if we ask the question Nintendo or Sony, I think Nintendo win that the Gamecube is set to be ace and the PS2 has already been deemed a failure by a majority of Nintendo fans!
The Game...I am sooooooooooooo bored.....:o(

Nintendo is for kiddies.
PSX is for REAL gamers.
:-)
Racer:
PS: GT2
N64: Ridge Racer64
Winner: PS but only just as 4 players is great on 64.
Shooters:
The n64 destroys the PS in this category and there really is no point denying it.
RPG's:
PS: The final fantasy's
N64: 2 Zeldas
Winner: the 64 because Zelda 1 is the onlt game to recieve 40/40 in Famitsu as an true RPG!
3D Adventure:
errrr...
All of the PS's 3d adventure games are beaten by Mario and Banjo.
Games that need a mention:
Jet Force Gemini, MGS, PD, Goldeneye, RE2 (64's is better, believe me!)....the list goes on.
Right now with the price you can pick up a 2nd hand 64 for (£35) and then the 2nd hand games are cheap the console is such a non-loading experience that I would choose it over the PS with only about 5 classic games tht will stick in my mind with the likes of Zelda and Goldeneye.

Well if you bought one it wouldn't be FM.
Anyway Jet Force is really good.
Enough said.
I'm happy, you're happy, everybody's happy!
(you choose the right console!)
Mario64
Zelda64
Goldeneye
Perfect Dark
DonkeyKong64
DiddyKongRacing
WWF NoMercy
or the PS1 with
Driver
ISS Pro Evolution
MetalGearSolid
GranTurismo
Resident Evil
PointBlank and TimeCrisis (Great Lightgun Games)
MicroMachinesV3
I've got both systems and theyre both Brilliant!
I'm sure that the PSX must have good games, else so many people wouldn't have bought it, would they?
9?
The reason why the PSX is more popular than the N64 is simply because it has recieved many more high quality games and much more support from the 3rd party developers.
As has been said many times before; it's not the hardware that makes a console great, it's the games that you can play on them which decide whether that console lives or dies - Microsoft take note!!
