There. Now there's no reason to have this thread.

6th gen graphics were pretty damn bad though. Yes, I know we had shenmue on DC and Mario sunshine water, but a lot of games looked like ass

Halo 2 for the Xbox had dlc though. Unless you're saying that map packs don't count as dlc. I'm being played aren't I?

>>387337101
Wrong. GameCube games still look great in 1080p.

The Playstation 2 was by far the best Sony console.
It has more games than the PS3 and 4 combined.

>>387337251

>>387336981
It's not like the suits wouldn't do it if it was feasible.
Only Xbox had the HDD out of the box, PS2 could get one with a NIC but that was a pretty niche thing for FFXI fags mostly.
Also internet was nowhere near that fast and ubiquitous.

>>387337568
>>387337624
Wow, is this the underage meetup thread?

probably the most overrated gen on /v/ right now. 6th gen nostalgia is almost at an all time high now.

>>387336981
the 6th generation was the generation that ushered in absolute cancer.
However, it was good up until 2008. That's when everything went bad.
I have to say that most of the console games weren't all that good though. Not that there wasn't some pretty good ones like SSBM.

>>387337067
All became free after like 6 months.

>>387336981
xbox and iirc a few dreamcast games had all of these things in a limited degree, but you're still correct

sixth gen was the perfect storm of tech advancement and general culture in game development. you had AAA games that seriously pushed the envelope compared to any gen before, but development costs weren't high enough that small B tier or indie tier studios couldn't make neat stuff too.

This is also the last gen when there were legitimate merits to each console as well as PC, instead of gens after where PC/sony/microsoft all got the exact same games with the only difference being how well it ran, and then off on the sides there's the nintendo gimmick machine which gets a handful of first party titles that look like last gen games and some shovelware or crappy ports

>>387336981
wow, 4 controllers and not a single good d pad

>>387337331
Not really. It has to do with the quality of the assets being used that helps. Silent Hill 2 and 3 for example look LOVELY running at higher resolutions because of their supreme texture work. Okami looks nice in HD because it has an everlasting art style carrying it. Something like Call of Duty 1 looks positively 6th gen, even at 4K.

>>387337815
>However, it was good up until 2008.
Sixth gen wasn't a thing in 2008, the ps2 got a handful of games still but sixth gen started in 2006/2007

>>387336981
Looking back at the ps2 controller, what was the point of that analog button in the middle. Why would you ever turn your sticks off. I never used it

>>387337101
>but a lot of games looked like ass
Compared to anything that came before even muddy ass second tier ps2 graphics looked fantastic if you were to compare them to equivilent 5th gen or earlier games.

Every gen afterwards has just been sixth gen but a bit sharper or with more details in terms of visuals because of diminishing returns

>>387336981
Every game was casual af basically, so no.
Games might hold your hand more now and be even more casual on average, but it least there are games that will occasionally pound your asshole nowadays, unlike PS2/Bawks/GC/DC where every game is piss baby ez.

>>387338176

>best SMT games

absolutely

>>387338176
When sony was making the system back in 1999 or whatever they weren't sure if sticks would take over dpads, so they had a toggle.

Also it probably helps if you're playing a game dpad only game and have fat hands

The 3DS has the same button layout as the Dreamcast except for start and select

>>387336981
Yep. Gen 7 was worst gen. Current gen is bouncing back and restoring my faith a lot, but the magical RE4/Soul Calibur 2/Mario Sunshine days are gone.

>>387338176
Some PS1 games didn't have an in-game toggle for analog controls or d-pad, so hitting the button spoofs plugging in a non-analog PS1 pad.

>>387338418
360 is one of the best consoles of all time though

>>387338392

plus a better Dpad, a better stick, a start button that isnt way the fuck down at the bottom center, and isnt painful to hold

>>387338392
The original 3ds XL actually placed the start button on the center bottom under the touch screen, so it's pretty close.

Yeah no fuck you. Gamecube and Ps2 are infinitely better than Wii and 360 sure, but DS shat all over the GBA.

>>387338469
Until 2009 when it had fuck all for exclusives and most devs had figured out how to develop for the PS3 better.

>>387338661

>>387338638
Your words were "No DLC. You're the one who just twisted my words, toddler.

>>387338469
How? I mean presumably there's one of your favorite games on there, but when it was relevant every 360 game I picked up I could expect the following:
>no bosses
>45 minute single player
>intense focus on boring out of place multiplayer
>Cinematic Experience™
>Either AssCreed or CoD combat
The same was true for PS3 of course. Nothing good was coming out back then.

>>387338418
>Current gen is bouncing back and restoring my faith a lot
I think the 8th is the worst by far

>>387338690
DC in that time had itself a more timeless and varied library of exclusives than the 360 ever did. I don't think the DC is the greatest console ever though.

>>387338818
Depends on what you play. JRPG/Action fans love 8th gen, Platformer/Arcade fans hate it.

Can you name 3 games?
Actually devs payed more attention because if they shipped half done buggy messes like they do now they'd lose a lot of cash.

4th gen is the best retro gen, 6th gen was the best modern gen

SNES/Genesis/Lynx all revolutionized tons of arcade classics for home market and defined 32 bit gaming as a whole.
>Super Mario world
>Link to the past
>Contra III
>Sonic 3K
>Gunstar heroes
>Metal Slug

Gamecube/DC/PS2/Xbox each defined and fine tuned specific elements of each genre as well as revolutionizing the shooter genre.

Examples:
>Halo
>Timesplitters
>Deus Ex
>Ratchet and Clank
>Super Mario Sunshine
>Phantasy Star

etc.

>>387337067
Technically not DLC because it wasn't "downloadable" content.

>>387337078

So, third generation was the best? That sounds about right

>>387338947
Except that all memory cards were notorious for becoming corrupted, but yeah you can go ahead and keep on the projection.

Retard. Also, DLC is often (for good reason) associated with low effort content that has been skimmed off what should have been the full game you paid for that is now 90% of a game. Expansion packs are fine.

>>387339923
Sony popularized it and made them mandatory. Lots of games on N64 that were multiplats with PS1 had mandatory memory cards.

Jesus christ console warriors fuck off.

Gamecube was good for Nintendo first party.
PS2 was good for Sony first party and multiplats
Dreamcast was good for Sega IPs and Fighters
Xbox was good for FPS and Sega games held hostage by Microsoft

Each one had its merits now fuck off.

>>387339939

No one is going to list 500 worthwhile games because no library possessed that many. Unlesd you have absolute garbage taste and will list virtually anything.

Why didn't Nintendo ever release a disc-drive add-on for the GameCube? It would have allowed games which required multiple discs to just keep playing, and it would have allowed larger games (like Grand Theft Auto) to actually be ported to the system, either on multiple discs or on higher capacity discs.

>>387339863

You're an idiot.

If you're going to equate expansion packs to DLC, then generation 6 had them as well. Hell, generation 6 had games cut up into multiple pieces and forcing you to buy those multiple pieces to get the complete game by way of Xenosaga and .Hack.

third pary exclusives and multiplats are not the same thing.

I seriously doubt that. With the notable exception of a smattering of DC/PS2 games that never left those consoles, most multiplats hit the big 3 consoles.

Can't we just learn to love? I literally see no point in fighting over exclusives/consoles. Just get games for the systems you love and play them.

>>387340374

Yes, the Wii plays GCN games natively. I just meant that all the consoles are great. If you don't want a GCN because you have a Wii, that's fine. The Wii is a much cheaper way to get 480p goodness with GCN games.

>>387340374
Yes, although ironically it was discovered that the architecture of the Wii is similar enough to the GameCube that it could have just run the games without it if it had been programmed to. If you own a Wii U, there is no reason to own either Wii or GameCube since homebrew allows you to play any game from all three systems for free.

If you really think this, then fine. Just know that this isn't the commonly accepted definition of multiplat and you will keep having these misunderstandings.

>>387341717

What the fuck are you even saying?

If a game is on one platform, it is exclusive.
If it is on more than one platform, it is multiplatform.

I am not responding to your inane, broken English anymore.

Stop right there because that nonsense has nothing to do with the 7th generation itself. It has to do with the political climate and the times moving forward, and Videogames ultimately getting sucked into it as a mass media craze.

Imagine if we were a decade further and we made videogames prominent in the 90's. Lets say Sunshine, Sly cooper, Melee, Halo, all of that comes out in 2009-2016 instead. Would this change anything? The games are still good, but that doesnt mean people wouldn't trry to influence them and make political statements in them. Same thing applies to now. The games themselves are fine, its the mentality behind their creation that needs to die.

multi platform means it's on more than one system what you mean to say is third party

>>387342571
What do you think a platform means in the context of video games?

>>387342695
oblivion was on 360 not the original xbox

>>387339863
But being able to take your save data to your friend's house was cool as shit.

>>387342571
No one refers to game companies and developers as "platforms", idiot. That is a term used for the hardware or service used to play the games. Therefore, a "multi-platform" game is one that is available across multiple consoles and/or PC.

Fuck off OP The DS was literally the best handheld to come out to date. Not only did it play all the amazing DS games for its era, but it was completely compatible with GBA, GBC and GB carts, which made it a super system.

>>387342724
third party means they are on all three consoles.
>>387342736
platformers are the people that put up the mpnney for games and print them

>>387340181
I recall a lot of Xbox ports having weird glitches, particularly SH games. I recall playing SH4 and the edges of the models didn't quite align properly, creating very large seams in the character's faces.

>I've traded so many games and consoles to gamestop just to get the newest and "greatest"

I'm getting older and I'm just starting to think that I should give up playing videogames, not out of maturity or some nonsense like that, but because it's a very expensive hobby and I've hardly ever been able to keep up

>>387338469

What was even more cool was that you could plug in your Dreamcast memory card into your friends memory card and trade save data or battle each other with Chao mini-games.

60 dollars for a single game is pretty expensive when you spend 1200 a month on bills and rent.

>>387343527
If you're struggling with living expenses you shouldn't have a hobby period retard. Save it for when you're financilly stable.

>>387343812
The cost of living in my country is substantially higher and my bills are lower, you should move somewhere that isn't beyond your means i guess.
Working for nothing but subsistence each week doesn't sound like a good idea to me.

>>387344031
Depends on how compatible you are with the person. My GF and I split rent even, $500 each, leaving us $1300 each for our own leisure and spending. My rule is as long as rent+utilities are paid off first, we can spend the rest as we please. The only bill I pay is internet and insurance, since I opted out of landlines and cable since we barely ever use em.

Point being, if you make $1200 a month, you'll be making $2400 a month at base with 2 people, and the only extra expenses are minimal.

>>387337078
Nope.

>>387336981
It would be a hard call to claim it as best, but I will argue it was a good generation.

>>387344230
Only good games on GBA were SNES ports

>>387339863
It was an easy and relatively cheap solution.

>>387344230
GBA was awful though. ITs library consisted mostly of SNES ports and licensed titles. There were like 10 good games and even most of those got ported to later systems.

>>387344230
GBA was pretty bad outside games like WL4 and such

>>387344031
Ideally you'd share bills. You only have effectively half the utilities, and it's possible that a mobile phone carrier would have a multi-line plan.

>>387344265
I like that logic, but I don't see myself finding a significant other just for the sake of easier living.

>>387344240

>>387344448

Well no, don't. My point is if you do find someone it'll make life easier for both of you. If you dont have anyone now it'd take a while to be comfortable with someone at this point. at least a year or two before they'd consider to move in with you or vice versa

Nah. Megaman got better with X, Mario got better with Super, Metroid got a far superior remake on GBA, and Castlevania got better since Symphony.

There is literally no point ever playing anything earlier than fourth gen. NES titles are all compiled in every collection ever and made better by things like Ultimate NES remix.
