The Original Playstation Is The Greatest Console Of All Time.

the 32 bit era was the greatest in videogame history.

i'm replaying old classics like xenogears, snatcher (forgotten kojima masterpiece!), FFVll, metal gear solid, chrono cross, vagrant story, etc. and i'm realizing this was the first era where videogames began to transcend their medium. It wasn't just about picking up and playing a game for five minutes and throwing it in your closet when you're done...no, this was the first era where videogames could be actually considered art. The jump from 2d to 3d was massive...I don't think any other era could compare. Too many classics released during this time.

tell me i'm wrong?

N64 is atleast 3 times better

Oot

Paper Mario

Mario 64

Banjoo kazooie

GOlden Eye

MAjoras Mask

Conkers Bad Fur day

Banjoo Tooie

etc

N64 and SNES.

Good luck next time.

I'm not sure I would call it the best. Though I do think the original playstation puts the current one to shame (at least for now).

Lies and Slander. It is all about the Super Nintendo with Super Metroid and Super Final Fantasy VI and other Super games :P

But seriously SNES ftw :|
Nex_Rex

Same here. 6>7, in this case. And I've played both from beginning to end, with a few sidequests in both.

The PS2 has been out for eight years :|, and it's first two years were absymal compared to the later years in its cycle.

Read: At least for now. No one knows how the PS3 will turn out... though I would be rather hesitant to make any comparisons with the PS2 either (the high install base gave developers a major reason to support it later in its life).

Hell, you were the first console (Atari is, by my standards, a home arcade) and defined console gaming, but the SNES is better.

NES is awesome, but SNES beats it imo.

Oh god the horrible memories of long loading times.

Have you played Croc? That was a great game.

Anyway to answer your question, I think you're wrong. The SNES is the greatest console of all time. Its mode 7 technology along with the super FX chip provided the transition from 2D to 3D. Plus, it has tons of great 2D games.

I'm going to give you the reason why it isn't. Not that it wasn't a great console. Simply a reason why it isn't anymore.

AGING. The games for the PS1 has aged...horribly. Almost every single game for the system, especially if you take the first PS controller into account. It has some gems for sure such as Castlevania which still holds up. But we are talking about the greatest here. And we all know that the overall greatest has the word Super in it's name.

pseudo-3d maybe...

The original playstation got me hook on tomb raider series and resident evil serieskyacat

Which is funny, because I didn't like the playstation (despite being hyped for it before it's release) and I played both of those on my Sega Saturn. Tomb Raider was even pictured on the Saturn box. I think it came out first as well (by a very short amount of time).

Sadly, the game did look better on my friends Playstation. We both played it at the same time on our respective systems.

Hey, cry me a river. I'll help with some ambiance. You didn't have FF6. DON'T TRY AND CONFUSE ME WITH YOUR FINAL FANTASY III!!! It was a great game, but it was Japan only. There are some things you could do that the little bro couldn't (like DuckTales), but SNES was better. You were a transition machine, but the SNES was a Renaissance console. Leonardo daTendo.

I played N64 more at the time, Playstation was more mature and I was young, I didnt get into those kinda games until PS2 came out.

But I did own one and played MGS, Resident Evil, Jet Moto, the first Smackdown, and the Crash Bandicoot series.

that game was just fun to play, the multi player was killer for its time

So true, team against the one with the goldengun FTW!

Boogie_J

Nah, fully 3D, but insanely simple.

Anyway, the N64 owns all.

Yeah :lol:

3 seems a little low

Nintendo 64 is 64 times better than the Ps1

I still play my N64 and copies of Star Fox, Star Wars Rouge Squadron. I lost my Goldeneye and traded my Super Mario 64 :(

I would like to take a crack at finishing Super Contra and playing SM3 but my NES stopped working

Never owned the SNES,but when i did play it, the feeling was almost magical. I dunno why but i felt so happy playing them.

Playstation 1 I was like

"Meh"

Playstation 2

"WOW but meh"
