List all the consoles (and PC's) you've owned since you first started playing games and say which was your favourite (and why).
Mine:
1994- Sega Mega Drive
1997- Pentium 200 heap of junk with a hilarious 32mb Ram
1998- Sony Playstation
2001- Sony Playstation 2
2001- N64
2002- Dreamcast
2002- Gamecube
2002- 2Ghz Intel Celeron (or whatever) with 256mb Ram
2004- X-box
2005- Sega Mega Drive (again)
My favourite console? Gotta be the original Playstation. Gave us classics such as Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy VII, Tekken 2/3, Resident Evil 1/2/3, Silent Hill, Crash Bandicoot, Final Fantasy VIII/IX, Gran Turismo and all the rest.

Top list there Jim :)
1. Atari 2600 - Moon Patrol is probably the highlight. The console comes with a very naff joystick.
2. ZX Spectrum 128k - Treasure Island Dizzy is incredible. The console is a bit of a joke due to 5 minute loading times, and the tapes were totally unreliable. Priceless fun though :p
3. Nes - Absolutely top notch. Super Mario Bros. 3 and Faxanadu (an rpg, wahey!) are two of my favourite games ever - the Nes is an absolute must to anybody, even now.
4. Snes - Wicked console. Super Mario World and Starfox were just magnificent, but I only had very few games for it. Others were Eek the Cat (oh god, no) and Mortal Kombat 2 (pretty good, a bit scary though), but the console I mostly played on in the same era was...
5. Mega Drive II - Streets Of Rage, Golden Axe, Sonic 2, Soleil, Talmit's Adventure, Flashback, Puggsy...need I say more?
6. N64 - My favourite ever console. Zelda: Ocarina Of Time is the best game ever, ever made. Perfect Dark, Mario 64, Paper Mario, DK64, Diddy Kong Racing, WWF No Mercy, Goldeneye, Turok 2 - my god, so good.
7. Dreamcast - Very underappreciated but is still remarkably brilliant. Soul Calibur and Shenmue 2 are both absolutely exceptional, and there are all the party games - Samba De Amigo, Power Stone, Chu Chu Rocket. Man.
8. Gamecube - I've now sold my Xbxo, and I have this little baby left. The highlight of the console is certainly Metroid Prime, but there is Resi Evil 4, Zelda WW, F-Zero, Tales Of Symphonia, Baten Kaitos, Mario Kart DD - it's the biz.
9. DS - I'm loving this baby to bits now, despite it's disappointing UK releases so far. Meteos? Kirby? Advance Wars? Nintendogs? Can't go wrong.
How I love my collection :D

n64 is the best, can't beat childhood zelda games. :D
Yeah I did complete it in four days.
I'm surprised he can play them now, even.
The fact that he managed to complete Area 51 in something silly like 4 days (or so he reckons) is what's keeping me from buying it, as someone of a relatively normal intelligence must therefore be able to play through it in a matter of minutes.

I nearly completed Sonic 2 at the age of 4 ;)
Although I see your point with Crossbob.
