Turbo Graphix 16 is on that list? Oh my god, did anyone actually like that? I think "Splatterhouse" was the ONLY thing that they had going for them.

I like that Gamecube alot. It's graphix are better than PS2, and it has some fun games.

X-Box. Screw the classics. In X-Box you get graphics, and an awesome controller.

Well, there was "Castlevania: Rondeau of Blood" as well (for the Turbo Duo add on), but that was a Japan-only release. The SNES port ("Castlevania: Dracula X") really didn't measure up to the original.

While I had more games for the NES, I had more games on the SNES that I liked and considered classics, so give my nod to that.

There is only one system embued with Blast Processing. It was the home of the blue blur. Oh yeah, Sega Genesis.

If you want good gaming out of a console, you've got to go with something pre-crash. After the crash, all the good games went to computers. There were one or two decent games for some of the post-crash consoles, but overall it's been about 99.9% crap. Computer games are only about 95% crap.

He's talking about the 1980's Atari glut.

Because that was the only Crash persay in the gaming industry.

SNES was the best system, but the Cube has the best controller.
