Well, that doesn't matter, since mgs has sold a lot more than shenmue, and I know that the thread is about the best, but now I'm talking about the most successful, and it's deffinitely not the dreamcast.

That doesn't make sense. Final Fantasy is the origin of RPG's,metal gear is the origin of stealth gaming, and they both some of the few games that strongly concentrate on the storyline as well as gameplay. They were both released on the nes for the first time before we even heard of a company called sega, and their legacy continued from nintendo to sony, and now they both share it with crystal chronicles and twin snakes for the cube and the main series of both games on ps2, where was sega in between the 80's, the 90's and now ? Offcourse you'd say sega had better games, but who cares? It wasn't as successful as Sony or Nintendo.

No, Final Fantasy was more popualr and it sold more copies, and that's the whole point: success, it doesn't matter which is better, Final Fantasy sold a lot more than any other dreamcast game series.

So MGS was on playstation its wasnt something you couldent live without Shenmue you just could not live without and Skies Of Arcadia kicked the funk out of ff8 and 9 7 no but still if you took the time to actually PLAY the games you would agree that it would outweigh the games on playstation.
