Give em' the toss man he ain't nothing!

This is legendary.

I find most 5th generation consoles to be meh. There are some definite classics from the generation but there are too many games filled with awkward controls and art styles whose attempts at realism are eye sores. I can appreciate that somewhere developers needed to learn the ropes of 3D gameplay but that doesn't make it any more playable. All things considered the 2D games of the generation were still great.

Kind of a weird way to look at it. To me I felt like the jump from 3D was and will always be the biggest leap in gaming. I don't care how good graphics, physics, and things like that get from here on, the 3D jump was pretty crazy.

3D control for a 3D world, bitches.

That's why I think it was kinda dumb for the PS1 to debut without analog sticks.

I feel fairly confident that if I accidentally dropped one of the earlier consoles than it would be fine, but the Wii just doesn't give me that same vibe. Maybe it's because mines white though. White does have a tendency to give off a delicate vibe when it comes to electronics.

I can confrim, via my own near-retarded clumsiness, that the Wii can take one hell of a battering too.

I bought a n64 3 years back. I have 8 games, zelda OOT & MM, mario64, banjo, kirby, bomberman, doom and tony hawk2. I only enjoyed zelda & kirby. Can't afford conkers, resident evil, paper mario.... I'm dissappointed with the system, I thought it'd get more playtime.
