Nintendo personally for me

DKCR
NSMB
SMG2

Sony has become my second favorite, but they have produced a lot of bad titles in first party department, namely if you include things like Move games.

Forget all Sony games, in ten years time no one will remember them, but people will still be talking about Nintendo Wii games.

The funny thing is that Sony already has games made 10 years ago that are still talked about today

Easy to Answer, if you are a teenager or kidult it will be Sony.

Many of us are neither and still prefer Sony.

Why does this even  have to be said.....sigh. This question can't be answered in absolutes.

With topics like these, you often find people coming out just to strike down something they don't prefer with hit or miss generalizations. His comment is n different from an irrational poster who posts nonsense like: "you only buy a Wii if you're a grandma/grandpa or 5-8-year-old kid". Such generalizations will usually show up in these types of topics.

Also, people will probably continue answering in absolutes: "Nintendo's quality is untouchable", "Sony's 1st party has no competition".......that type of stuff.

Yes, but there are so many sony fanboys on this site that bash Nintendo that i tend to do generalizations because of them.

One a serious note i wanted to say both of them, just depend of the kind of games you like. sony and Nintendo have made great games this gen.



But we must first concentrate ourselves on the way to entertain people, for video games to live. Else, it's a world where sales representative will win, which has as effect to kill creativity. I want to say to the creators all around the world:"Courage, Dare!". Shigeru Miyamoto.

I don't think cult classics are necessarily on the same level as classics. Also while I don't agree with the user above, I do think Nintendo has more leverage of making classics, compared to Sony.

As in comparing a game that is talked about from niche demographic, compared to a boarder demographic. Sorry if I am not making sense, I am not able to edit some of my work, due to me taking off my glasses.....because I was about to go to sleep. So if my sentences are grammatically incorrect, I am terribly sorry.

No, no your grammar is fine. It's just that I don't see the differentiation between classics and 'cult classics'. Or at least I do, but not in the sense that digitalnasties is suggesting. He stated Sony games don't have the ability to stand the test of time. I offered an example that contradicted his claims. I have not played Ico personally, but considering the industry recognition from gamers, game sites and game developers I think it more than qualifies for obliterating digitalnasties notion.

Do you agree? Or do you disagree and think that Ico is not talked about today and that nobody remembers it? I'm not sure if you're contradicting me or what's the case. I'm just trying to understand...

Oh i already stated, that I do not agree with the original poster, given it was quick edit, so it might have been missed, but I thought you were comparing Ico to something by nintendo, hence my statement.

You're right, Ninty has bigger franchises, mostly attributed to one man, but still.  They've also been around longer.  But still, Crash was pretty big.  Crash, Gran Turismo, Legend of Dragoon, Syphon Filter, Wipeout. God of War. Classics.

Also, would Shadow be a cult classic, seeing as nearly everyone has resigned it to being the best game on PS2 (And therefore, one of the greates games of all time)?

I would say Shadow might not be a cult classic (rather a classic), but ICO for sure is a cult classic.

The other titles, I don't know if I put them necessarily as classics, as some of the titles are not really used to define classics (Syphon Filter, Crash, and Legend of Dragoon). God of War I think is still fresh, so that might still be a wait and see. Gran Tusimo is some type of beast...
