If you want straight console, go with the gamecube.

But, if you want an all in one arcade box + console, get an xbox. I got an xbox with a mod chip and I put all sorts of emulators on it. I can play all arcade games, nes, snes, amiga, commodore, n64, and turbor grafx16 games on it. I'm playing all the classics I loved all on 1 console which is awsome.

I have a PS2 and a gamecube, so for me those are the best. I have yet to try an X-box so can't say if I like it or not. I am not into the one is better than the other argument, I believe it's the games that make the system. The system could have the best hardware and crapy games will drag it down (nintendo64). But that is just me.

I just bought a xbox last week so i will say xbox is better but my one is not modded yet.

A question for modded xbox owners is modding a xbox hard. cz I can open the console( already did) but never tried to install one modchip. My previous modding experience was PSX-CHANGE boot cd for PS1 that would allow me to play burnt games. :no:

i thought it was gonna be hard too, but it wasnt. i soldered the xenium chip and the only hard part was the D0 point which was reaaaallly small. but it wasnt too difficult. shouldnt take more then 30-40 min on a first try

what is ur most favourite gaming console?

i added computer in because some people prefer to play games on their computer even though i know its not really a "console".

my favourite is the PS2 cos it has the best games. :D

Agreed with you. The best games are in PS2.

For console, XBOX. However, PC and XBOX should be counted as the same thing. All an XBOX really is is a P3-733MHz, 128MB Ram, DVD-ROM, and a 10GB Harddrive. In addition, the XBOX "OS" is just Windows 2000 Professional with the XBOX shell file (replace explorer.exe with somthing like "xbxshell.exe"). Other than that, and the controllers ports, it is really just a PC. However, PC's you can have more power, more functionality, better graphics (remember, XBOX connects to a TV, wich uses NTSC format video and audio, which is very poor compared to an LCD Monitor). Just a few thoughts...

Pc is the best, then XBOX, then PS2, then gamecube (if you can even call that a next-gen system -- it has NO functionality compared to the PS2 or XBOX).

    • I used to use Google assistant, not on the phone i have now, but about 7 years ago, then I decided it did not really do anything for me. Because i had Echo units over the house I added Alexa to the phone to control stuff and that is how it is now. Not the new Alexa+, as that is not really available in the U.K yet apart from on new units and to be honest, not interested in it. I went though the stage years ago of using voice to do text and call people, quicker to do it using my hands. I had a muck about with Siri on my Mac when I first got it, but not having a microphone permanently plugged in makes it a pain. I know it can be used by text. Siri like Apple AI is disabled on my Mac and will stay disabled.
    • I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.
    • 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.
