Definately the best gen....as for 16 bit being "Golden Age" the linked article can quite frankly shove it up its Arse !

16 bit was not Golden in any way.... in many respects the games industry was on its knees after the Great Crash !

Terrible gameplay with graphics and sound that merely served to paper over the cracks ruled the 16 bit era.

There were of course the odd shining gems but the 16 bit era is best seen as a transition phase rather than any hue of precious metal.


CLEARLY you didn't live through those games your oldest console is probably a ps2 or an xbox anybody who has played the games from the 16-bit era knows these are some of the best games every created judgeing them by graphics and sound is something only a person from the last or current generation would do.

Super mario world,sonic the hedgehog,chrono trigger,final fantasy 6,donkey kong country,super metroid,castlevania IV, and those are only some of the popular games.You really need to own a super nintendo genesis or a turbografx 16 to really experience all the great games.

I love FF6. I don't like donkey kong or chrono trigger though. I like Metroid. And I love Castlevania but that's not the point.

 

I think partly graphics. And Sound Should be considered. Because, take FFVI for example. The soundtrack is good. But let's say they did orchestrated it like they could have. It might look a bit odd, having those to mixed. But Surely the sound would make it a better game.

 

Unless you consider nostalgia a factor and surely not having snes would take away some of the nostalgia.


Not critiquing, Just Pondering. I don't really have a favorite Generation Just A Bunch of Games I love.... and it's happened every gen including this one.
