Which was better?

SNES Vs Sega Genesis. 14 87.50%
 
PS3 Vs Xbox 360. 2 12.50%
 
Total:16

SNES vs Mega Drive no question about it. PS3 vs 360 was nothing in comparison. In school there were constant fist fighting over SNES vs Mega Drive or Mario vs Sonic. There were a lot more feelings involved in the old console war days. PS3 vs 360 was mostly about sales. Numbers this numbers that blah blah.

Or rather, which console war was more interesting....

3.   Genesis vs. SNES....Genesis had the early lead with Sonic, however, SNES came back with a late victory with SF2.

2.   Saturn vs. PS1.... Saturn had the initial buzz, however, Daytona and VF1 weren't enough to overcome RR and a superior version of Tomb Raider that the Playstation, the new contestant, brought to the masses.

1.   360 vs. PS3 vs. Wii ....360 came out 1 year before Wii and PS3 to much success....Gears of War was a system seller and came out just when the other consoles launched...

- Wii beat out both systems for the first few years, the 360 appealed to the hardcore more so than the more expensive Blu-ray equipped PS3..

- 360 also benefited by the much ballyhooed launch of the "You are the controller" Kinect accessory...

- By the end of this LONG 7th generation, PS3 was the late winner, Wii turned out to be a 5 year fad, and Kinect and the 360 were long past their prime..


I remember guys on the forum swearing that the release of the Kinect(then known as Project Natal) was going to be a game-changer and the future of gaming. LOL



The Kinect isn't even game changer yet... My bet is? will never be... they managed to boost interest for the Kinect once again.. but it failed again..  No one saw that coming LOL

PS3 vs 360 was a fight for the silver medal, SNES vs Genesis was a fight for the gold.



PS3 vs 360 definitely got things popping off lol.



PS3 vs. Xbox 360, no strong feelings though.

All I know is the "next-gen" war has turned to sh*t.



wii u vs X1



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Console wars are just stupid.

When I was younger I used to think, "i have an N64, that ps1 of my friends looks cool, I wish I coudl convince my parents to get me one TOO" not that I didn't like the 64, but wanted both. Same with like gameboy vs. gamegear, ect.

Now a days it seems like you have to be loyal and your somehow not a true gamer if you own all systems.
