    But Twilight Princess is also on the Gamecube, and that one's cheaper.

    I'm not going to buy a next gen console in the next year. Maybe a PS3 when it's 300 euro's cheaper, but I'll see.

    the one number two had in "the village" (a kind of series that was a kind of sequil to the third man/secret agent man).

    ok jk i know, not a GAME console, i just have a fetish for built in desk type control panals, especialy of unusual configuration. makes it easier to immagine you were world dictator or something.

    that "village" btw, would make a GREAT video game, and i can't say as i've seen anything quite like it. not that i would know. and probably something like it has been done.

    the setting is a secure retirement facility for retired espianage agents (from every immaginable real and fictitious spook shop all over the planet). secure, that is, against any attempt to escape. and of course the object of the game is to do so. cooperation with those who would have been your enimies, opposite numbers in your former life outside is an important element, although backstabbing and 'snitching' is also a part of the game. after all number 2 (who was for all practical purposes the warden, although the supposedly nonexistent number one was most likely the computer itself, which actualy in the series, at least once, held an election, for number 2's replacement, which i seem to remember number 6 one, but somehow didn't get to keep. perhapse because he kept continuing to try to escape, which appearantly his election had been engineered to try and discourage. number 6 being of course, the 'viewpoint' charicter') MIGHT reward you. or not.

    oh, and its not like hard time or anything either, more like the ultimate in humane country club prisons, like i say, designed not to look like a prison at all. with everyone assigned their own little personal challey cottage. all completely impersonal and identical of course, and of course perminently built in bugged every which way, for their own protection of course, but 'their own' at any rate. and plenty of social amusements available. even a park where old guys would sit for hours playing chess (as a way of commuicating with each other without being heard or obviously seen to do so by the ubiguotous bugging devices).

    of course EVERYONE was ALWAYS trying to escape from there, and of course trying to be unobvious about their attempts to do so (the did have their proffessional pride after all). and there wasn't any obvious walls or fences to keep them from just leaving. except what there was, there was this big red balloon called rover, appearantly a mobile or one of a fleet of them, run by the central computer that appearantly (along with number 2 and a staff of annonimous tecnicians) ran the place (and observed what ever the rover/rovers 'saw').

    One thing about Nintendo is that, while many of their games may be geared more for kids, their consoles are strictly for playing video games, not watching movies or playing music as well. That's probably the reason Nintendo's consoles are more dependable and don't break down as frequently as Sony or Microsoft consoles seem to be so prone to doing. Luckily, my Sony PS2 has not let me down in that department and my GameCube works perfectly also. I don't have X-box, X-box-360, PS3 or Wii, but I may get a Wii, if I can find one. They're hard to find!

    I still like playing my Super Nintendo, has to be my favorite. I have a Wii, I love playing Manhunt 2 and Medal of Honor, it takes a while to get use to the controls for Wii when playing games like that. But Mario Galaxy for Wii is fun as hell to play.
    I still also enjoy my playstation 2... But that's it really, and I haven't played any video games for a while, but reading this thread made me want to play some.

    I had to drive an hour away to get mine, and yes, that is sad but that's also dedication.

    The new consoles are shit. Waste of fucking money. Best console was Nintendo 64. Conker's Bad Fur Day, Mario 64, Goldeneye, Banjo Kazooie, Ocarina of Time.

    Keep your Gears of War and your Halo 3 and your Bioshock and your Assassin's Creed and whatever the fuck else, they'll never be as good as the older generation games. :)

    ^ well considering your only 18 i could say the same about N64 and claim the SNES was the best system of all time

    I own a PS3 currently and a Wii and am fairly happy with both

    I voted ps3 coz of the specs and less failure rate and blue ray player. I only own a 360 tho. Was cheaper at the time and is basically as good.

    as of right now? id say Wii. mario galaxy, Twilight Princess, im sure the next star fox will be great, metroid prime 3, in 2 weeks Super Smash Bros Brawl,Resident Evil 4
    id say within 2 years, PS3 will be my favorite. once FF13, and the Last Remnant come out. eventually with kingdom hearts 3 and God Of War 3. Resistance Fall of Man is great.
    360 doesnt really attract me. im not into sports games and not that much into shooters. and thats where Xbox shines. the only system exclusive i like on it is halo. cant stand gears of war

    with last gen it was hands down ps2. taht was the shit. i love RPGs and it had the great ones. FFX and the kingdom hearts were absolutly amazing. Devil May Cry series was exclusive back then and those games are sick. God of War, prince of persia, Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, Soul Calibur 3. for me, xbox just couldnt compare. Gamecube had all the classic nintendo games so it was a must have.

    the way i see it, if you like video games, you gotta have a nintendo console for the classic series. and then it falls down to if your an RPG person, or sports/shooter.

    which is the best console, or which console has best exclusivities?

    however imo ps3 is answer to both< followed closely by 360 with the games, last with the hardware.

    33% failure rate is a failure, and basically sale fraud.

    but meh, i guess all consoles have theyre ups and downs, its just prefferance.

    ^ how can u suck PS3's dick so hard when it has NO exclusive titles?

    every single good game i've seen on TV ad's is a 360 exlusive, and walking into bestbuy i swear there have not been more then 4 new PS3 games in the past 6 months

    the only reason i like the PS3 so much is because it's a good media player, as a gaming system it falls WAYYY short of the 360

    I love FPS and I can't lose the mouse/keys (old school i guess) so i never bought a console yet ...but it would be nice to own one because i get sick of upgrading the pc.

    well, the ps3 has more exclusive titles i want than the 360.

    resistance series
    killzone
    mgs

    and i mean fair enough 360 has some tight games, but the best console is ps3, since 360 is just shit hardare that fails constantly
