SynisterGamer

No again.

It's a fact that the console had sold alot more than the competition and had a good / decent libary and SOMETIMES made amazing games I.E MGS 2 and ICO.

But clearly the Xbox / Gamecube defined the generation and set the standard future generations I.E Halo / Halo 2, Ninja Gaiden / Ninja Gaiden Black, Resident Evil Remake and Resident Evil 4, Forza, Super Smash Bros Melee, Zelda: Wind Waker, Stars Wars Knights of the old Republic upon many others.

PS2 was clear winner in console sales, that can't be debated.

Clear winner in making quality games?

No, not at all.

Squaresoft will always remain as my favourite developer. Square-Enix are just far too hit-and-miss these days, relying too much on remakes and ports.

I disagree, the PS2 had loads of fantastic games. TimeSplitters, GTA, Kingdom Hearts, Shadow Hearts, Jak & Daxter, Silent Hill, MGS2 and Devil May Cry to name a few that're on my shelf at the moment. The PS2 was one of the best consoles ever made because it had decent backwards compatibility.

no it wasnt. the snes and genesis era was the best era in gaming. ps1 and n64 era was second. then again the nes era was great too.

Even though this is more of an opinion why which one is better when you look at the number of hit games and new games that are still around today they came out during the PS1 and N64 era.

:roll:

Devil may Cry was released proir to any console / competition and was the first of the "Over-The-Top" action-adventure title of the generation.

Devil May Cry 2 scored a 68 and was considered one of the "Worst Sequels Ever Made" and won "The Most Dissappointing Game of 2003" right here on spot.

Devil May 3 was released two years later and scored 84, which is a flop considering the former first title, and later released a Special Edition which scored a 87 Good Job DMC3, two tries and still couldn't hit the mark.

Ninja Gaiden was released a YEAR BEFORE DMC3 and won "Best Action Adventure Game" and "Game of the Year" among various Websites, Magizines, Critiics ETC including Gamespot which says "one of the best most challenging action adventure games ever made" and IGNs "sets a new standard for third-person action games in terms of length, depth, speed, and gore" and enter Gamespots "Hall Of Fame"

You intentionnaly ignored Ninja Gaiden Black which scored 94 on Metacritics which is 10 points better than the latest DMC 3 and 1 point off from the original DMC.

Also, I'll take Team Ninja at their word when if they ever admit that DMC inspired Ninja Gaiden.

So I refute "GOLD STANDARD SET" Silent Hill 2 was better than all of the Silent Hills and says right here on gamespot BEST ON XBOX.

I can care less about Timesplitters, you not understanding what a "STANDARD" means.

Synthetic_NinJI

If I recall correctly, I stated that the original Devil May Cry was a good game. I never mentioned the other two.

Ninja Gaiden was released a YEAR BEFORE DMC3 and won "Best Action Adventure Game" and "Game of the Year" among various Websites, Magizines, Critiics ETC including Gamespot which says "one of the best most challenging action adventure games ever made" and IGNs "sets a new standard for third-person action games in terms of length, depth, speed, and gore" and enter Gamespots "Hall Of Fame"

Also, I'll take Team Ninja at their word when if they ever admit that DMC inspired Ninja Gaiden.

Synthetic_NinJI

I ignored Gaiden Black as...well it's a remake. Either way, DMC still scored that oh-so-important one percentage on Metacritics.

So I refute "GOLD STANDARD SET" Silent Hill 2 was better than all of the Silent Hills and says right here on gamespot BEST ON XBOX.

I can care less about Timesplitters, you not understanding what a "STANDARD" means.

Synthetic_NinJI

Okay, so now we're reduced to personal attacks. A little premature but, oh well, time is money. This "Gold Standard" you've been parading is a very loose disguise for "in my opinion, this is a good game". Throwing numbers and titles at me is about as effective in swaying my opinion as shouting in leet, I stopped reading reviews and GOTY titles round about the time Final Fantasy X won RPG of the Year. I base how good a game is off my own opinions regardless of what others have said (for example Tokobot Plus) and I rarely see any game being touted as this "Gold Standard".

Oh, and it's "couldn't care less". If you "can" care less, that means you do care, even a little.

Don't kid yourself, gaming will always be moving forward. The best era of gaming is yet to come. What happened is that you are now older, and you look at things more critically.

too bad for the ps3, huh? Rahnyc4
If you mean backwards compatibility, I managed to get a preowned 60GB PS3, so I'm fine. If you mean games on my shelf, I actually think I've managed to acquire more games than when I had my 360, without resorting to just replacing them all with the PS3 version. :P

If I recall correctly, I stated that the original Devil May Cry was a good game. I never mentioned the other two.

You didn't have to :| DMC 3 is better than DMC 1 in the regard that it has new features, new techiques, new weapons, better graphics, better enemy A.I, more depth in combat thus it pushes the "STANDARD" As time passes and news games come along new standards are set. Ninja Gaiden is better across the board it beat and made standards that were already set.

I ignored Gaiden Black as...well it's a remake. Either way, DMC still scored that oh-so-important one percentage on Metacritics.

You also ignored the meaning and concept of a "STANDARD" . :| You can compare Crysis to Doom and say Doom for SNES is better, that doesn't since their is a concept called "STANDARD".

Okay, so now we're reduced to personal attacks.

I didn't one personal attack in the post I made.

This "Gold Standard" you've been parading is a very loose disguise for "in my opinion, this is a good game".

No, I'm not insulting your intelligence but you don't understand what a standard is.

"I rarely see any game being touted as this "Gold Standard"

I gave you clear examples.

Oh, and it's "couldn't care less". If you "can" care less, that means you do care, even a little.

Yes, I care to make my point.

I loved my PS1 and all the Final Fantasy games. I couldn't get enough of those. FF VII-IX was only one of the few games that I finished multiple times.

Stroke your ego all you want, but this is a futile discussion. Your definition of "Standard" is far different from mine. Delving into that discussion would be deemed as "off topic" so I won't even touch it. But yeah, go ahead and think your opinion trumps mine. ;)

[QUOTE="heretrix"]16 bit Genesis vs SNES >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>AllnVidiaGaMer

PS1 and N64 is the best ever.

.....I agree. But yeah, PS1 era was Square's renaissance. Sorta like Disney in the 90's.
