Wow... I wasn't expecting my selections to fall exactly in line with the majority.

Either way, I (we) am (are) right. PC is the best platform of the current and next generation consoles. SNES was the best of the old generations, probably because of nostalgia, but also because of system power (it was good, not great), and especially library (huge) and quality of games.

I've gone for 360/PC/SNES

Was torn between 360 and wii for next gen. While the 360 hasn't really brought anything new it has really polished everything, a great all-round experience. I've preordered a wii but i can't say much until i've tried it. I couldn't go PS3 as for gaming it looks like it won't bring anything that it couldn't have done a year ago. I gave up on the PC gaming after all the ridiculous copy protections, bugs, driver issues, etc. It just became too much of a pain to even get started with a game.

For prev gen I have to say snes, gaming was so much fun and it's the best 2D gaming ever got.

As everything went to 3D I have to say PC, the graphics were superior and the sheer variety of games available. I've so many great memories of PC games, so many classics.

    • Microsoft Teams is getting a controversial location tracking feature that users may hate

      By Circaflex · Posted

      I noticed this was already happening within my organization; my teams location will change between remote and on-site without me having to do anything. Is it possible this is live already for select customers?

      I wonder what it will show when I'm plugged in with my ethernet cable at home and not using WiFi.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By TsarNikky · Posted

      While LibreOffice is not pleased to see a new competitor, they are absolutely correct in stating that Euro-Office using a MS file standard as a default is not being truly "European." Using a MS standard just means Euro-Office is just a "bastardized MS Office Suite." (Wasn't a major purpose of Euro-Office was to get away from being captive and enslaved to MS's Office Suite??)
    • Microsoft Teams is getting a controversial location tracking feature that users may hate

      By TsarNikky · Posted

      Microsoft continues its long-term policy of spying on their users--despite vehement denials. That feature will be disabled (or removed) either "elegantly" with MS providing a true way to disable it, or "quick and dirty" via a third-party who WILL come up with a way to disable it. Your choice MS...
