The N64. It was the bomb shizz.

N64 was the best!

From what I hear (and even played, in some instances), the N64 had some great games. However, I've been a PS fan since the first. There are a few things that I didn't like about N64

PC beats both. It's a no contest

proof:

computer system is so much cooler looking than a console: http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa82 ... 010240.jpg

better looking graphics are available on PC with direct X11. (consoles use Direct X9): http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa82 ... -16-57.jpg

Keyboard and mouse can be used as well as a controller (consoles can only use controllers without modification or additional hardware)

computers can use resolutions well beyond high definition (the limit of consoles)

computers can use large screens like with my setup: http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa82 ... G_7873.jpg

I don't get what you mean by crash, because my computer never crashes during games. Although my friends are always getting the RROD.

Space is a non issue with having to install games with large hard disks. PCs perform much better in games because loading data from the hard drive is many times faster than constantly accessing the disk. This results in levels taking 10-20 seconds to load at the most contrary to the console which make take a couple minutes. Also most PC games don't even require the disk to be in the machine to play.

Also online play is always free. There is also no lag ever because of dedicated servers.

There are good quality games for PC. exclusives?: Crysis, Crysis Warhead, Starcraft 2 to name a few

If it wasn't for PC consoles would not have games like Call of Duty, Portal, Team Fortress 2, Just Cause 2 etc.

I keep both cause i can't choose.

The PS3 has gotten alot better. more games and better games.

Actually Xbox 360 has more games and the games are the same on both systems they both have great graphics.

i never said it had more games than 360....i was saying it has more games now than it did when this thread was made. and when this thread was made ps3 didn't have alot of games and quite a few of said games were mediocre at best. Now ps3 has alot of great games including quite a few ps3 only games. Games like Infamous and Infamous 2, God of War 3, Battlefield Valkyria, Resistance 2, Rachet and Clank, Uncharted 2 Among Thieves, and MAG.

In terms of gaming platforms, they are mirrors. Halo and Gears are reflected by Killzone and Resistance, Forza by Gran Turismo, and everything else is multiplatform. Really, you have to look at what back-ups and extras they have. For instance, if your a movie buff, PS3 is superior to Xbox, but, Xbox will be getting Natal, so it broadens further to casual gamers.
Xbox also suffers from a huge reliabiliy issues, not so much with the PS3, but I prefer the ergonomics of the 360. Given the choice, I'd sooner have a PC. It plays virtually everything, and it also broadens the gaming spectrum by allowing people to write their own mods and patches. While it does suffer a lack of exclusive titles due to the availibility of consoles, it is more than enhanced by the friendliest community. The biggest put-off is the cost to keep it top of the range to play new releases.

I happen to have a 360, ps3 and a pc that can play any game on the market on max details without issue. And I like all 3
