i became a ps1 fan after the end of the amiga, and was looking for an alternative hence my move to ps1,it was new and not a rival of the old amiga, iam sure the ps1 got a kick along especialy in the pal region by large amounts of amiga gamers looking for a new format and because of that and all the great games i have owned on sonys machines over 1,000 at last count i count myself a fan how about you.

Other game's on other console's didn't appeal to me as much as playstation's did.

I feared MS could grab another monopoly.
But I'm not a real fan, it's much more likely I'll buy a Wii (but not at the current price).

My parents bought me a PS1 with Crash Bandicoot 3 so I just went along with it I guess... playing all the amazing games the console offered made me one. Besides I didn't know any better (as if there was any better back then =P ).

GT series.

I wanted a Gamecube for Christmas one year, and my dad wanted an XBOX, but my parents got me a PS2 instead. I was like "uhhhh...what is this!?" and I left the thing sitting in the box for a few days and didn't even think about it. Then we got snowed in and I was super bored so I decided to try it out and I have loved it ever since :)

For the PS1 and PS2 it was the very large amount of really good games (and FFVII initially drew me in). It seemed they decided to go an opposite route with the PS3 so I did too.

my brother !....bought one and it took me about 2 months to try it (i was a playstation hater).....loved the n64 at the time but didnt own one.......but when i tried the PS1 it changed everything...i was hooked up to this day !
and it is now SONY 4 EVER !!!

the first gaming machine i had is the snes and i loved it...
Then one day my father bought some weird looking grey box then a few weeks later i turned on the power and saw the beginning of something i will never forget in my life......the intro of Final Fantasy 7. i only played final fantasy games on my ps1 and diablo1

then ps2 came out... a year later i had enough money well.. i thought.... i saved for 1 year and still not enough i whas soo dissapointed... see i went to scool and when i came out of scool in the entrance of my house i saw a blue box... with the mighty word "playstation2" i had noo games till 2 weeks later and i played the demo 24/7 thats the beginning of my love for the sony playstation family..
i played almost every good ps2 exx game and when the ps3 came out i new i would one and i did and also i almost have all the ps3 exx games..
it does not matter what mic or nintendo have to offer, it does not matter if they take tekken and final fantasy, i wil always support sony.

There wasn't really much of a choice these past two generations...
