Browny, why did you have to post screenshots? Now I'll invariably be forced to post shots of Metal Gear Solid 2, Final Fantasy X, Ace Combat 4, Xenosaga, and Outcast 2 to counter your screenshots, and you know that'll make all the little 56K'ers cry... :rolleyes:

EDIT: Here we are, and in 56K-friendly format no less...

Thanks for all the feedback guys!

Well, I created a frenzy and now I'm gunna have to let you all down. We just bought a Playstation........ one.

My wife just wanted "a" console. I was pushing for a "top o' the line, OH-MY-GOSH-LOOK-AT-THE-GRAPHICS" console. Anyways, she's happy with what she got, and I figure if I get hooked on it, we'll probably end up with a new PS2 in a few months (can you say Christmas? :D).

(after seeing Keiichi's post) :
for (i = 0; i < 100 ; i++)
{
"save target as";
}

:D

BTW, Keiichi, i have (again) been a dumbass by telling in another post you were a biased PS2 pimp.... Your first post here was extremely neutral ... I humbly beg your pardon ...

You're right, Spike. It takes a nanosecond to detect all the anime/japanese influence in Outcast 2, Devil May Cry and Ace Combat 4 ... How foolish i was to ignore that :D

heh. i figured as much. Honestly the PS1 has a very strong library that's got a good amount of vareity, and is now very affordable... espically as i mentioned that in my experience women tend to enjoy puzzles, and generally gameplay more than graphics. Go try and pick up "Super Puzzle Fighter" it's probably less than 10 bucks used, and is one of our favoirites espically at parties because just about anyone knows colums/ tetris, and the versus feature is quite addictive.

Gamespot has a nice little seciton called "game collectors" or something like that where they've been listing all the "must have" games that you can usually find in bargin bins, or at your local "FUNCO".

She's into sports games. :tup: She bought some boxing game and I played it until two in the morning. I didn't get enought sleep and my brain isn't working (hence I can't remember the name of the game :p )

And my thumb hurts! :mad:

I think I'll check out Super Puzzle Fighter. I bet she'd like that too. :)

I also mentioned getting a football game and she jumped on that idea. My wife is so cool. :D

ya know we've all forgoten about quite probably the single best console. espically in this situation.

Gameboy. Dont laugh... it's been alive and kicking for alot longer than the PS, N64, Dreamcast, (and it's probably got more after market mods, and parts than an AR15/M4 lol) and i think has the largest collection of games for any system, and they're fairly cheap... and alot of them are fun. Hell, even my mom has a gameboy. And it's portable... If you do alot of commuiting or just like to lay in bed, and game.. you can't beat the little gameboy.

And if i'm not mistaken GameBoy advance, is backwards compatable if your looking to spend some more money.

But anyhow PS1 is also just as good.

on a different topic:
am i the only person who looks at HALO and is dissapointed? That game would've been impressive if it had been released when it was suppoesed to.. but now i just look at it and say.. bah. I feel really bad for bungie.. if they hadn't been forced into a initial X box release they could've clean the PC market with HALO ( i think it was originally planed to be out around the same time as tribes 2 )

I dunno whenever i see pics of HALO i think i'm looking at a game that's a year old.

two words:

Final fantasy.

now that you have a playstation, you can play FF4-9 and IMHO the best one is FFVII. that IS if you are into CRPGs.

It might not look that great anymore, but if the game looks the same and it took this long to make, it's likely that the gameplay has been tweaked as close to perfection as possible, and gameplay matters just as much as graphics, if not more. However, I'm starting to really lean away from the Xbox and look at the PS2. Mostly has to do with the recent release of GTA3, my most anticipated game this year, plus the upcoming release of MGS2. I dunno if I'll be able to wait much longer. :hmm:

MGS2? I dont think anyone on earth wants that game more than me, keiichi and shakken...

and the fact that I was expelled from school, I have nothing better to do than to sit around wishing I had the game... more and more...
