Systems You Own

[bamthedoc]

I just wanted to figure out what a lot of forumers own. This can include games, and I'd like to see reasons. DO NOT BASH SYSTEMS IN THIS THREAD, PERIOD!! You can also include consoles systems you are thinking about adding to your home entertainment system.

And example would be:

I own the NES, SNES, N64, and GameCube. I also own the GameBoy, GameBoy Color, and GameBoy Advance. I'm thinking of getting the PS2 sometime, but don't know if I will before the end of it's lifespan. I may end up getting the PS3 (or is it officially X?) around (slightly after) the time I get the 256-bit Nintendo console. The same thing goes for the X-Box, but I'd prefer waiting for a major price drop. I also own a PC, duh

The reasons I got the GC were simple. I prefered the future game release list, as I'm a bigger fan of Zelda. I like playing my larger library of exclusive titles, and I don't care about "backwards compadibilty" since I don't tend to sell my older consoles and games (unless they really stink). Needless to say, I'm glad to have MMNT, SoA: L, LoZ: WW, LK, EW, SSBM, and all the titles I have. FYI: Mario Party is just fun

GBA is somewhat obvious. It has the largest library of all (500 titles). I enjoy playing GS I and II on the system, and I like FFTA. Then there is the KH exclusive (occurs between KH I and II) coming. I like playing a few SNES remakes that I somehow missed out on (BoF I and II). And I even play LoZ: LttP (even though I have the SNES) for it's addition.

I want to get the PS3 (or next gen) because it has FFVII - FFX (and XI soon, possibly exclusive XII -- but that remains to be seen). It also has FFT, and I enjoyed that -- though I never did beat it. KH looks good, and KH II is coming though it has a chance, slim, of being GC/PS2 upon release. There are others, but I haven't completely decided yet. Also, backward compadibility keeps me from needing to by the PS , but that's besides the point.

As per the X-Box, it has some titles that I hope don't move to the PC. There may be some RPGs exclusive the the X-Box coming soon, but it remains to be seen if they will stay on the system or not. The biggest problem with me and the X-Box is the price. I really could care less about the DVD player because I have one (and could easily buy two seperate systems -- using GC and a regular DVD player as an example -- for less). I'll have to check out the "smaller" controller to see it the grip (controller and buttons) is better.
FYI: I'm taking some suggestions. NO FANBOY SUGGESTIONS TAKEN!!

I basically have a PC, primarily, for work and processing , but I do play some games. The PC has the widest range of games, and some of my favorite DnD titles. It also has some of the only "free" multi-player online games. I doubt I will pay for many, if any, games like that



In any case, that's actually my answer. Don't give any fanboyish answers, as that will get you nowhere in this thread. I didn't make this a poll because of the sear number of options that could be put into this. I just want an honest discussion (and that means no bashing). If you don't know what "bashing" is, I'll give the most common examples.

GC: It's kiddie.
PS2: Graphics are no good.
X-Box: I hate Bill Gates.

^Those are only examples. There are more.^

i have a xbox. i got it cuz of halo. I usta have ps2 then it got ****ed up cuz i took the sbox out of it.... i might go out and buy a Gamecube cu theyre only $100 now.

[Korittke]

I own S-NES. Why you ask? Because it kicked ass when I got it and I'm too lazy to sell it. I also own PS2. Why you ask? Cause I want a DVD player combined with a gaming system and the X-BOX controllers arent no good besides PS2 has wayy better games. I also own GameBoy and that second GameBoy which has no color screen but is smaller. For an explanation look at S-NES. I don't own that many PS2 games, kinda like Tekken4, Tekken Tag, NFS6, burnout2, splinter cell and that other racing game, forgot its name.

[Moof-Ader]

I own Xbox, PS2 and a lot of games.

and that other racing game, forgot its name.

Is it Gran Turismo 3?

[Wing Zero]

NES SNES and N64

[Moof-Ader]

That's all you got Wing Zero?

[bamthedoc]

All he's told me on AIM is that he doesn't have any recent systems. Poor guy. He's going to miss out on that Gundam game for the GC/PS2 (don't recall title).

[Sicloan]

nintendo products - nes, snes, n64, gamecube, gameboy pocket
microsoft products - xbox
sony products: ps1
computer? : YES I HAVE ONE

future consols: im definately going to buy the new microsoft one when its released, i will also purchase ps3 or psx or whatever is going to be called. as for the next nintendo, it all depends on the games.

i just bought the gamecube on ebay for $75 with 1 game, also purchased 2 more games and 2 controllers, total was under $150 AWSOME!

[bamthedoc]

That's a good deal. Has anyone, besides me, seen the DVD capable GC? I think it's about $150 now, since the regular GC went down to $99.

my dream entertainment system. in my room (where my new pc will be) a PS2 just for kicks, a godly pc, probably a custom built ABS or Alienware, err........ a 50" plasma tv, some pimp speakers, xbox, and a top of the line laptop and stuff and also full blast air con

[bamthedoc]

My dream Entertainment System is the "Yoshi Box"

What is it? It's a combination system. A guy named Yoshi (works for TechTV) built this ultimate system by using computer connection technology. It the NES, SNES, N64, GC, PS2, and X-Box built into it and all connected to the TV screen at the same time. It also connects the GC, PS2, and X-Box to the internet at the same time (using routers basically). This allows him to switch between any machine at any given time (turning the power off to one then switching to the next and turning it on).

That's what I want! (can't imagine the price though...) It ran him about $150 beyond the cost of the consoles; I believe. So we're talking about, rough estimate, $6-800 in total costs.

FYI: I said no bashing, PERIOD!! You'll want to edit that out before I report your post to a mod. Friendly warning, and the last.

[IDefy]

[Korittke]

yep, gran turismo 3

[bamthedoc]

I'm curious as to if I'm the only person who doesn't like Grand Theft Auto and Grand Turismo, though I like GT more than GTA. (and I mean here)

[IDefy]

One of the reasons I bought PS2 was because of GTA but now its coming out for xbox. # 3 that is.
