The gaming platforms of our lives

[JCG]

Atari 2600
NES
SNES
Genesis
Nintendo 64
Playstation
PC

And Gameboy + GameGear somewhere in the middle (I never really liked the GG though....the screen was too fuzzy).

is that the one where you have to fly out of the hanger and the doors are closing? My brother almost beat it, I never got close.

Don't forget the very successful Nintendo Dolphin.

Yeah, that's the one. It took us a month just to figure out how to consistently get out of the damned hangar.

[Dis]

yeah my brother couldn't figure out how to get out either. I never got that far- I was too young, and I still sucked at most computer games. Of course, I still suck at most action games

I much prefer console games now that adventure games are dead, yet I've never owned one (the C64 is borderline). I need a PC anyway, so I just get that and emulate old consoles for my pleasure. Really wish I had a GBA though.

Ownership history:

Sinclair ZX-81
Sinclair Spectrum
Commodore 64
286
486-66
P-200MMX
Celeron 400

I need an upgrade soon.

Double post.






Weeeee..........

Let's see....

Sears Pong machine thing.
Atari 2600
Tandy 1000 (what a piece of ****e)
C64
and then the PCs:
386
Pentium 60
Pentium 166
AMD 450 (my first home built)
Athlon 1Ghz
and the latest...
AMD Athlon XP 2400

Oh, and I recently bought a PS One to keep the kids off my computer.

And the only one my "rich" white parents bought was Pong. My mom was AWESOME at Space Invaders on the Atari 2600 though. She could beat everyone in the house.

[Vlad Antlerkov]

Consoles:

Game Boy
Genesis
Nintendo 64

PCs:

IBM 486, 33 MHz (four years)
Packard Bell, Pentium, 233 MHz (three years)
Gateway, AMD Athlon, 1.4 GHz (two and a half years, May 2001 to present... and two hard drive replacements, plus the computer fan needing to be replaced. Oucher.)

I use the PC more or less exclusively now. Can't be arsed to get a new console system. Hell, I'm not even sure if the N64 even works anymore.

Nah, if anything I'll buy the Xbox and get a few first person fighters (Halo, etc...) Perfect Dark 2 is supposed to come out on xbox I hear.

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

My sister had a Dragon 32 in 1981 (I think).

I dicked about with a Megadrive, then bought a PC in 1997. That's all. I'm not much of a gamer.

Yeah, all Rare games are only on Xbox since MS bought Rare.

first person games suck on consoles... PC is the only way to go.
