it was just epic. got me pumped before I even started the game

PS2's was great as well. Nice ambient music andartsy design.

The 360's is 'meh' because I'm scared it would freeze or give me some type of hardware error. Dreamcast had a 'oh crap, this is the future' feel to it. Gamecube's was just embarassing

Pumped is the right word. The PS1 boot up was epic. :P I never really got into the PS2's in the same way.

It was simple, but it did the job. That bass rumble, and that mystical "wooo wooo wooooooo" at the end as it showed the 2nd logo... completely unmatchable.

Why did Sony get rid of it anyway? I actually enjoyed seeing it when starting my games.... Now we just get nothing.

how about no bootup screen? just go directly to the game, or say..directly to a menu.

nes, snes, genesis...ect all had the best bootup screeens/...they didn't have em, you put a game it, turned the power on and the game started none of this waiting crap.

probably going a bit left field here.....but i loved the win98 startup sound http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tajDxBaPBBM i remember hearing it for the first time on speakers that were better than TV speekers at the time. best windows startup tune anyway. the PS1 also had a great boot sound.

Am i the only one here that gets REALLY freaked whenever they see or hear the PS1 boot-up? I think its because of way back playing Resident Evil 1/2 at my friends house and i just linked it with the PS1. Still, its pretty scary.

Even now when i look at it i shudder a bit.

I agree, 2nd place would go to the Dreamcast, and third would go to the Gamecube.

It was a great system but unfortunatly with a very little success! Amiga500, on the other hand had hundreds of great games :D
