N64 definately

Goldeneye was on it. Need I say more?

No, but I will. I sold my 64 when PS2 was about a year old because I thought it was getting too old. I brought a PS2. I hated it. It has to load all the time and makes a noise and it needs a memory card to save. The 64 didnt ever need to load. IMO sony dominate only because the PS used CDs which was a new technology noobs just knew must be "better".

Game consoles were gonna stay on cartridges bro...there was too much needed just to get one cartridge made. Companies woulda eventually gone bankrupt probably.

I'm a Nintendo wh0re (but not a one sided fanboy)...and I've NEVER liked Goldeneye. I'm sorry but FPS need to remain on PC's...well except Metroid Prime.

hhmmmmmmmm

its a fact tho

gamecube games R CHEEZY

Its interesting that the:

Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance

Nintendo Gamecube

got the lowest votes  :laugh:

Erm, it's an opinion, an uneducated one at that. With people running around thinking like you, and the fact that most people that would've voted for those two chose SNES/NES instead, there's no wonder :rolleyes:

My answer might even come as more of a shock than the Commie mentioned above.

To me, it's the Apple II series. Hands down. Some of the most memorable RPGs I've ever played on a computer all came from that system. I still haven't seen an RPG with a combat system with half the depth of the Wizard's Crown/Eternal Dagger series. *sighs*

Super Nintendo.

I still, even TODAY sit and play Super Marioworld and other mario games on it.

It's gone through a few modifications to keep it in working condition, tho.... :wacko:

For some strange reason, it probably wasn't designed for play well into the next mellenium :rolleyes:

"Other" would include what I couldn't add in (and don't even care much for), Sega's stuff and the XBOX. If you prefer some other old or new platform (Turbo Grafx, Atari....) feel free to mention it.

Lazy mofo :angry: Sega Genesis Owns Snes...

My other goes to Sega :cool:

My other goes to Sega :cool:

Excuse me? :crazy: Lazy? :hmmm: I think not. I said more than once all ready that I would've made better choices on the poll if I knew it'd be so popular later. :rolleyes: :p

Thank you to all who voted and anyone else who continues. I guess this is the official debating thread for gaming platforms. :happy:

    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
