To those who know anything about consoles, the Mega Drive is an under appreciated system with many games that cane the socks off many modern games.

ANYBODY who rates a game on graphics and sound alone is a stupid retard who knows nothing about games.

The Master System, SNES and Mega Drive have some of the best games that I have ever played. Why? Because the games were playable, had a story and were lots of fun. The RPGs lasted a while too.

But IMO, console gaming is a pimple on the Earth's bumb compared to PC gaming.

PC Gaming gave classics such as Dune II (also on Mega Drive, but PC is superior), Star Control II (also on 3DO and ported to the PC, but I prefer the original), Police Quest I-III, Space Quest series, Quest for Glory series, Leisure Suit Larry series, Kings Quest series, Monkey Island series, DOTT, Sam and Max, GTA series (console versions SUCK!), The Elder Scroll series...

I could go on for a bit.

But yeah...pc gaming is THE ONLY way to game.

Yeap. Always been into Playstation. Right now PS3 to far to expensive to warrant buying one considering the lack of games. Cant stand Nintendos, well anything after the SNES.. and Im not a fan of the Xbox, the first or the current 360.. because for every 10 Xbox360s sold, 7/10 of those owners will go to war to defend its honour, that its better than Playstation in every possible way. So buy supporting Sony, I'm keeping these kids angry for my enjoyment.

These days I hardly touch the thing. Every few weeks, a series of beatings will be handed out in SmackdownvRaw or Fight Night 3, but thats about it.. I'll throw in ESPN NHL once in a while, thats about it. Iv got a habit of buying new games, I and never really playing them.. eg. the latest Transformers game.

I'm proud to say it still works almost as well as it did when i first bought it, as long as its upside down and in summer gets a steady stream of cool air from a small fan sitting on top of it :

Never had a recall...not bad for a 10 year old console

I got a PS1. Bought some games in Thailand about 7 years ago, never had a console. So I bought one. STill got it and it works, but graphics are terrible. I will wait for a the PS3 price to come down. Might buy one then.

BUT PC is the way to go....

SEGA MEGA DRIVE = FTW!

MY GOD!!! GT5 FINALLY HAS FERRARI'S!!! wonder if there is lambo's too..

if GT5 has treadmarks, options for damage, engine swaps and everything else that forza has it will be the best driving sim in the world ever and for ever.


FF12 was mad, i finished it.. the end was kinda dissapointing though as it didnt take long, didnt need to be a strong level or have heaps good equipment and was easy as pi.. the monsters in the normal world were harder then the main boss!
