Dude, obviously you never owned an Atari Jaguar. But I digress, I have bought consoles in the past based on sales. As a kid, I decided to go with the Playstation as opossed to the Sega Saturn. I didn't have a bunch of money to spend on gaming back then, so most decisions I made were quite final. I decided to go with Playstation simply because I saw the shift in momentum towards the platform, and I wanted to have the most options when it came to games. And for what it is worth, while I did enjoy a healthy ammount of games on the Playstation, I have always regretted that decision. |
Did you live in a bizarro universe where the Saturn actually got more good games than the Playstation? Seriously, that generation I owned an N64, and I sincerely regretted not having a Playstation. I liked the N64 and all, it just wasn't diverse enough for me (lack of third party support...). Going with the PS2 if only for the backward compatibility was the best gaming decision I ever made.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
