Are you kidding me??? Sega Dreamcast isn't on your list?!?! It's the greatest system ever. I still play it - and I have Xbox and a good PC among others. I can't beleive it's finally over. I bought tons of games, got the broadband adapter, and played online all the time.

AGREED! :rofl:

but why is it gone... :cry:

sonicCD

YAYAYAYAYAy

i love to time travel lol :yes:

I voted for PC because.. well.. i've owned consoles, but I just never bothered with them really. PC always has the games that keeps me coming back for more.

SNES was an awesome console though - remeber getting one when they'd just come out - DAMN that console kicked ass!! :)

well, I am surprised the PC got as far as it did, the PC is TO BIG, and TO MANY CABLES, and doesn't make for as good lan gaming.... lets see

4 Xboxs (16 players) on HALO, 4 TVs one small hub, few wires *VS* 16 computers, 1.2 billion stray cables, and 16 monitors, and many technical problems

i'm gonna go with the ps2 for true console, and game boy (over gamegear and ngage) for handheld. ps2 has so many games and a nice controller and wonderful graphics, and it can play dvd's and ps1 games. gameboy has been around forever and has awesome battery life, and the graphics (for a portable) are amazing. we'll see what happens when the psp comes out though.

    • 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!
