I never bought Sega stuff new, because I knew it would fail in a few years and I could get the shit for dirt cheap. I still have three NIB Sega CDX's that I paid $19.99 apiece for. 32X's I paid $9.99 for, Sega CD's I paid $19.99 for, shit got discounted like crazy.

It's 2001, so I pick the PS2 hands down. You know why? Grand Theft Auto III. October 2001, I remember buying it new, cost me $49.99 and it was better than the first time I got pussy. It wouldn't come out for PC until 2002 and I think Xbox 2003. So yea, GTA wins the day.

>>384324009
The Xbox was literally just a dumbed down pc, almost all of their major "exclusives" were just pc ports.
It is hard to say which of the other 3 is the best though, I would probably have to go with ps2 because of lifespan and the massive game library that actually had good titles.

>>384323954
PS2

I grew up with a GCN and after playing some of the games I missed out on the PS2 I would have much rather had that. GCN was only good for multiplats and everyone else around me had that day one anyway by the time I got mine.

>>384323954
2001 me would have said Gamecube for droning reasons. Current me would say Gamecube for Melee. PS2 is probably the definitive pick though for variety's sake. Dreamcast is also good for arcade titles.

Xbox - Literally who gives a shit when it came out
Gamecube - Had that Animal Game, a Diehard game, and some Resident Evil game on a train.
Dreamcast - That Japanese life simulator and some good sports games that would later end up on PS2
PS2 - GOAT game library out of any console outside the Sega Genesis and PC.

>>384325682
What I hated about gamecube, and all nintendo consoles since, was their games literally NEVER made it to the bargain bin, so I never got to get the good ones back in the day because my parents only bought me used/on sale games, and nintendo never dropped below 40, and even that was rare. If it weren't for that and that alone I might actually have preferred the gamecube to the ps2 or at least saw them as even in my mind.

>>384325962
Yeah that's my biggest beef with nintendo man, they utterly refuse to let their games drop in price. They still have console exclusivity, I will give them that, but I hate not being able to buy their games for 20 dollars after they've been out 4 years.

i might as well ask here, is there a way to play ps2 games that doesnt look like shit? idk what sony did to the console but no matter what cable i use it always looks like shit on crt and hdtv. gamecube and xbox look amazing on component. hell, hook up the dreamcast via vga and it looks gorgeous. why does the ps2 have this problem?

>>384326095
I have no idea what you're talking about, have you tried getting a different ps2?

>>384325507
>The Xbox was literally just a dumbed down pc
So what? Isn't that the whole point of a console? To not have to spend as much to play games?

>almost all of their major "exclusives" were just pc ports.
Yeah, which the other consoles don't have. So if I had to play a console, this would be the absolute closest I could get to actually playing a PC, and the only way to experience games like Halo, Doom 3, and Half-Life 2.

>>384325528
Was mechassault 2 the game where you picked a team in multiplayer then helped them take over planets very slowly? I fucking LOVED that shit

>>384326095

I never had that problem, but I spent a shitload of money (more than what this one sold for) to get one of these badboys when they were new:

I had all 3 back then and I can say PS2 was overall the best system but multiplats were sometimes better on Xbox if they were tailored for it like Splinter Cell.

>>384326292

PS2 because in 2002 SOCOM comes out, and in 2003 SOCOM 2 comes out. If I had 1 wish, it'd be to relive 2003~2004 forever so I could keep playing SOCOM 2 and SocomBattles for the rest of eternity.

dreamcast because it retained more value and I could brag about it later

>>384326364
I didn't get the dreamcast cause it died in like one year

>>384326549
my condolences

>>384326364

No one took the Dreamcast seriously senpai. That's what Sega got for abandoning the Saturn. Do you know how excited I was about the Saturn? I was a Sega fanboy my entire life. Worked a summer job at circuit city making $5 something an hour IIRC. Bought a Saturn, then a few years later it's like "lol fuck y'all buy this dreamcast instead"

So as far as I'm concerned, the "big four" was the fucking Saturn, not the shitcast.

Dreamcast and snatch up 100s of cheap games to resell 16 years later and buy a small mansion in the bay area

PS2.

>>384326501

Summer of 2003 I went 45 hours without sleep, ~40 of those playing SOCOM, usually in 12-15 hour marathons. Pissed in a bottle, drunk a combination of coffee and sodas, I was a fucking mess. Slept for 12 hours afterwards. A weaker man would have died.

GCN multiplats were generally better than their PS2 counterparts though, provided the Gamecube ever got them to begin with.

>a console that came out later that started development later has slightly better graphics, especially on a port of a game that came out two years prior

Also, even my old shitfest Pentium 3 could blow out the graphics on both consoles, so not like that matters. Convenience of having a console back then was that you could play games on the road. Laptops were not equipped for that shit back in the day.

Gamecube because nothing can compete with Melee and Kirby Air Ride. Dreamcast a close second. PS2 third. Xbox 4th.

I already had a ps2 and I picked the gamecube.

I don't regret it because I didn't know about the dreamcast, but if I knew about the dreamcast, I would have bought it.

Saddam was also buying thousands of PS2's.

Back then vidya rental at the local Hollywood or block just video was still a thing. You could drop a bigger HDD into the Xbox and mod it easily. You then had a great media center PC (for the time) and could rent a game and put it ok n the Xbox for like $5. Those were fun machines.

>>384323954
I'm going to pick gamecube.

Xbox does more damage, but I can't lift it, gamecube is more concealable and has a carryhandle for ease of bludgeoning, easier to assassinate someone like that.

I had all of them except the Dreamcast (because it was extremely niche where I lived).
I lived in Europe and when I moved back to America, since it was NTSC instead of PAL, my mother thought I wouldn't be able to play the games and she just gave my 3 consoles with ALL my games (over 30 games in total) to some South American immigrant shelter.
I wasn't that upset except from my golden Gamecube with Zelda's collectors edition.

Back in America, I luckily found a cheap ass Zelda collector's edition (the one with OoT and MM) and then 1 year later my maid stole every fucking videogame and console I had

Playstation wasn't a huge financial success it was PS2 that made Sony huge piles of dirty money.

They since blew it all with PS3 and Playstation division is still struggling to fix that, and it's been two generations since.

This is merely about Sony, but you're making it about Nintendo and Microsoft, two companies that have never made a trillion dollar fuckup like Sony did with PS3.

So how have you been keeping up with videogames?

Which was your first console ever and what consoles, in order, have you had?

For me it was:
>Xbox and gamecube at the same time
>Ds lite
>Wii
>Psp i found laying on a mcdonald's bathroom
>3ds
And thats it, had a 360 for like 2 days and last gen was pretty boring, most games were on pc so it was pretty pointless to buy a ps4, probably going to order a switch, maybe an Xbox One X

>>384323954
You get a metal gear solid and resident evil remake on the gamecube.

>>384324708
and so can you on the gamecube

>>384331241
not online tho

>>384331162
My first system was a SNES and since then I have owned an N64, a Ps1, a Gameboy, a GBA, a Dreamcast, Ps2, GC, Xbox, DS, PsP, Xbox 360, Wii, Wii-U, Ps4, Xbox One, and a mediocre PC.

Might be forgetting a console or two in there on the side.

Gamecube.

Try to actually go to Melee tournies back in 06 when I was in highschool fuck.

I picked Gamecube. It was the cheapest, but, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess man.

>>384323954
With internet? Gamecube (PSO)
Without? PS2

>>384331162
N64

Then Xbox and Gamecube
Then 360, a Wii in 2008 and DS in 2007
Now Xbox One and a 3DS in 2015

I bought a bunch of consoles for collecting purposes but I have always pretty much been an Xbox player with some Nintendo on the side.

Now I'm at odds with the current gen, but I might settle for a Piss4 since the Switch was a total disappointment with NO monster hunter.

I've asked this question 3 times and only some kind soul from /co/ has answered me. Very interesting.

2001? Definitely PS2. If it was 2000 I picked, well they're all equally bad

>>384330667
don't bother playing them now if you already haven't. you kind of had to be there.

>>384325528
You could make a picture of PS2 exclusives with twice the games and still not have to stoop low enough for obscure shit like Voodoo Vince. Seriously what the fuck is Voodoo Vince?

>>384330667
You can play the remixes, you don't lose anything.

>>384332167
You might wait since the switch has already been hacked. It's just a matter of time until a translation patch for switch.

Ps2 for dat dark cloud and GTA

>>384333327
.....what?

You gotta be fucking kidding me m8, I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to ask you to spoonfeed me on this one please.

>>384323954
If this were any other gen, I'd probably go with either the MS or Nintendo product.. but PS2 was a pretty great console.

Can barely remember but when I was at the shop I saw a Crash and Spyro and wanted the PS2, wasn't appealed by the Mario games at the time. Kind of regret making that decision but oh well, I'm sure either Gamecube, Dreamcast or PS2 would have all been a fun childhood anyway

>>384324902
I had all three, but this is the combo I'd go with if I could only choose two. Gamecube for my number one pick.

ps2

>>384328652
>RPGs playstation 2 exclusives
>Dragon Quest V
But that's not true, the game it's also on Super Nintendo and DS.

>>384323954
Dreamcast
Everything else was for plebs

fuck yeah, Crimson Skies.

Dreamcast final answer.

The Dreamcast didn't fail us. We failed the Dreamcast.

>>384326829
You seem to be pretty weak if you couldn't curb that addiction there.

>>384334152
Sega failed us all for being incompetent in the console market.

>>384334228
and yet they made the dreamcast

>>384326223
Yep, with a neat little hub where you could walk around and talk with other pc's

Shit was tight, i wish every game lobby was like a meeting room or a training room or firing range or something

>>384323954
If I have a PC then PS2, but if not then Xbox. I loved the dreamcast, but it was already dead by 2001 so there isn't a point then.

Even as a nintenbro I say ps2, though GC does have supperior multiplayer so there's that.

>>384323954
>Onimusha Warlords
>Zone of the Enders
>The Muhfuggin' Bouncer
>Jak and Daxter
>Silent Hill 2
>Devil May Cry
>Metal Gear Solid 2
>Final Fantasy X
>Grand Theft Auto 3

Is there even a question? I like Rogue Squadron and Halo CE, but come the fuck on.

>>384327813
I think he is excluding xbox games that had a PC port during the consoles lifespan, hence why no Kotor 1 & 2. Halo 2 got a PC port but it was Vista exclusive and was total ass so it doesn't count. Stranger's Wrath got ported to PC, but I'm pretty sure that was only after the 360 launched.

>>384323954
Gamecube

>>384334737
Half of the games you listed are on Xbox; some of which are the better versions respectably (Genma Onimusha)

However, I suppose it does say 2001

>>384325173
Fuck off, early 2000s were the late golden age of PC gaming.

>>384334737
comments like these are pretty dumb

>>384334149
Total cringe

>>384325649

The top 20 GameCube games are better than the top 20 PS2 games. It makes sense to pick either depending on how many games you want to play and how good those games should be.

>>384323954
Anyone using the Gamecube HDMI mod? Is it easy/affordable to perform?

I kinda regret selling my Gamecube, but I have a modded Wii with component cables.

I've also toyed with the idea of buying a Panasonic Q - don't they have digital out?

PS2 so I can get cheap PSX games as well as current gen stuff.

>>384335429
there isnt even 20 good gamecube eclusives

>>384335429
>The top 20 GameCube games are better than the top 20 PS2 games
No it isn't nintengaf.

>>384323954
I miss how every console used to look so much different from one another. Same with the controllers.

>>384335427
the truth can hurt, but you must embrace it

>>384323954
Tough call
>All those crazy Xbox games
>The plethora of PS2 JRPGs
I don't have much interest in the GameCube library and the Dreamcast was on its deathbed. I guess PS2 so I can live in the short time when anime was cool

Different UIs too, and games were vastly different across platforms visually, perforce, and control wise, even if they were ports.

>>384336272
where the FUCK is Tales of Symphonia?

>>384336428
>games were vastly different across platforms visually, perforce, and control wise, even if they were ports
ok relax, i wouldnt go that far. maybe this was true with 5th gen though

>>384336639
On steam.

>>384323954
GameCube, I'm getting in on the melee scene early

>>384336690
The Steam version is even inferior to the Gamecube version.

PS2

>>384325528
>Quantum Redshift
>Crimson Skies
>Phantom Crash
>Outrun
>Dead or Alive
I could have these games alone and I'd be satisfied for eternity. Throw in Red Dead Revolver, Halo 2, GTA: SA, PGR, Unreal and you'd be set.
Why the fuck was the Xbox so good?

>>384326197
>So what? Isn't that the whole point of a console?

No.

XBOX HUEG

>>384329664
fucking weeb

>>384323954
Xbox because online and LAN.

>>384323954
I think I'd rather change everything completely if I could go back to 2001

>>384330262
I'm not all that into GTA, I just don't see the appeal.

>>384325528
>no Rallisport Challenge 2

>>384325474
this is correct

>>384326893
>denying the fact that the Xbox stick layout is more comfortable and logical by calling it a "lopsided titty controller"

>>384323954
Gamecube and Xbox are the best choices

I would go with Gamecube though because my favorite game on the Xbox was on the gamecube as well.

>>384323954
ps2

most variety

>>384336639
Not exclusive.

>tfw was lucky enough to own an Xbox, Dreamcast and Gamecube by 2001, even had three gameboy advances.

Mum was kind to my brothers and I.

Not sure why I never got a PS2 though. I guess my mum could never find one or something? Not a big loss though, just missed out on exclusives I can emulate today.

ps2>xbox>dc>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>gc

>>384323954
How the hell did the Dreamcast manage to be so much weaker than all the other consoles, even the PS2? It makes the Dreamcast look more like a 5th gen refresh than a genuine 6th gen console. I know Sega was half a billion in bankruptcy, but surely they could have afforded something with more power?

>>384329586
>stunning visuals for its time

But the Gamecube was more powerful than the Ps2, second only to Xbox. Ps2 might've had fun games, but the GC and Xbox were superior all around, both in games and tech.

>>384325507
>JSRF
>Otogi
>Blinx
>Unreal Championship
>NGB
>Panzer Dragoon Orta

the amount of exclusives on the Hueg is the biggest reason I want an emulator for it

>>384336272
Yeah, I would choose PS2/Dreamcast, then Xbox. The GameCube really doesn't offer alot

Yo xbros, was voodoo vince really that good? Ive been visiting its store page every day since it came out wanting to buy it but unsure of how it exactly is. Is it a straight up platformer like crash was? Or is more of a collecting game like banjo? Maybe like sonic or mario? Or something else?

>>384323954
Dreamcast, easy. And PS2 slim doesn't exist yet so I don't know what that funny looking slip of a console could be.

>>384336312
Xbox got SMB Deluxe. Has all of SMB1 and 2s levels plus a bunch of new ones. But all the pre-wii monkey ball games are great, cant go wrong with any of them

>>384323954
I already had all of them so I want to travel the world instead
