Forums - Gaming - WTF: Gamedaily's 10 greatest systems of all time...

no system should ever make a top 10 list until it is dying. u cant really tell how good a system felt until after its time has passed. i would hesitate to put either ds or psp on a list, but absolutely no 360, ps3, or wii.



my pillars of gaming: kh, naughty dog, insomniac, ssb, gow, ff

i officially boycott boycotts.  crap.

Game Boy should have been #1.
NES should have been #2.

Nothing from the 7th gen should have been on the list yet, except MAYBE the DS, since it was the first 7th gen system, and it's from 2004, at like #9 or #10, 'cuz while I'm madly in love with it and so's most of the world, that's just not enough history yet. #3 through #10 would've included PS2, PS1, GameCube, SNES, Atari 2600, Genesis, and some other stuff.

We haven't even touched the controllers yet. The old NES had a controller that was nothing less then a torture device, the 64 controller was gender confused, and the wii mote is an accident waiting to happen. I have never seen a controller injure so many people. Thats ignoring the real crime with that controller battery only. You can't even get a corded version.

...

Give it a break guys consoles have been notoriously shoddy. You make that your dominant criteria and a whole lot of consoles have to get out of the pool. The only console I consider to have had no technical flaws was my old 64, and that console was fool proof, and damn near indestructible. The thing literally had armor.

 


The actual system might have been tough, but the N64 controller analog stick got worn out pretty easily. I remember playing Goldeneye with my friends and there was always a race to get the non-jacked up N64 controllers, which we dubbed the "bitch controller" as whoever had it was everyone's bitch during the game because it was so hard to play with the jacked up analog stick.

 OT: SNES is no.1 in my book.

Number one should be Atari Jaguar. I'm going to Hell for that comment. Really though, any current generation console should not be on the list because they are not finished yet. To be completely impartial one and two should be Atari 2600 and the NES in either order. Those systems were revolutionary. XBox 360 might wind up being the 3rd best of this generation. Number one ever is laughable. This is not a knock on Halo but the dude that wrote this article needs to keep playing it.

OMFG are you f'n kidding me? That's the stupidest list. Seriously. Worst on the internet.

 

I could not make a top 10 console list more stupid if my goal were to set down and create the most retarded version of a top 10 console list that I could, and got paid 10,000 dollars for it, I couldn't do a better job, honestly. 



I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
