Its gotta be the PS2 man. Its the most unanimous answer anytime one of these polls come upSPYDER0416
I don't understand that at all, because I got a PS2 and I hated it. It's because of the PS2 that I vowed never to buy a console ever again. I was just so burnt on that thing. The color was horrendous and made it unplayable. Even 3D Saturn games were more colorful. The reds looked like browns and the blues looked greyish. I tried for the life of me to get the color right, but it was not my TV or monitor. It was the PS2. All my other systems color was fine. I even tried hooking it up through my vidcap card and it still looked like crap, but all my other systems and DVD player were fine. I asked on several forums and I was not the only one to have this problem.
Hands down: Commodore 64 Nothing teaches you patience better than having to wait 20 minutes to load up your game. If you mean consoles, NES. That system really solidified the gaming industry after the infamous crash of '83. IMO, the C64 and NES held the basis or set the standard for what the gaming industry would develop into. Although, gaming before then was pure in a way that hasn't been properly replicated since. It was all about score and skill, and nothing about fancy graphics, storyline or beating it in 1 night or 5 minutes or whatever.
And pc-gamer (and console gamer), thank nintendo on both your knees and kiss their feet because the wii-u will trigger the next gen. If it was for sony and microsoft we would be stuck with this kind of game technology till 2020evildead6789
I see what you're saying here, but there is more to it than that. I mean, PC gaming has hit a rough spot because games like Crysis didn't sell very well for a myriad of reasons. Mainly I think because of piracy and people whining that their systems couldn't handle the game. Plus, there are legions of uber-nerds who will relentlessly bash a reasonably well done game because it does not live up their lofty untenable expectations. This is why PC gaming is in a slump that it will probably never recover from. Had Crysis been as successful as some of the top console games, like GTA (just for example) then we would see PC technology being pushed to the limit. Pre-Crysis PC gaming had a future, but now we can only hope that some dev studio comes up and gives us a gem every now and again and then goes bankrupt because there's just not enough money to fund projects like Crysis with the monetary returns your average PC game gets.

The sticks being at the top kinda makes the grips useless doesn't it? What a horrible controller design... Hm.. That's the opposite complaint about my PS3 controller. The sticks are too close together and my thumbs sometimes bump into each other.
Sony with PSVita? MS with the next Xbox? Electronic Arts with ...uh ... something? Square Enix with the next Tomb Raider? Activision with Diablo 3? Ok, there's too many companies and games to name, I'm just curious what company you think is going to make the most noise? I really think it's going to be Microsoft with the next Xbox and maybe some new IP for it.
I got that one free at MacWorld way, waaaay back then.
