Most agree that #2 + is the best one. I only ever owned the 1st one, and was exceptionally good at it. I have tried the others, but did not care for the manual stuff.

Hi /vr/

What year do you think was the best in video game history?

I'm partial to 1998.

Age of Empires: Rise of Rome
Baldur's Gate
Blood 2: The Chosen
Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines
Delta Force
Grim Fandango
Half Life
Heretic II
Lula: The Sexy Empire
Rage of Mages
Railroad Tycoon 2
Rainbow Six
Shogo: Mobile Armor Division
SiN
Spyro the Dragon
Wargasm

Just so much good stuff.

Let me hear your favourites and why.

I honestly don't understand the hate for this console. Every single common criticism I hear of the N64 is retarded as fuck.
>the controller sucks!
No, you suck at using the controller. It's very comfortable and has enough buttons for any kind of game. It looks odd, but it performs perfectly.
>it has no RPGs!
Yeah, no autistic turn-based JRPG turds, what a fucking loss.
>b-but blur!
Only in the 5th gen is anti-aliasing considered a bad thing. Many games didn't even use the it, like Quake 64 or F-Zero X, and it could be implemented to varying degrees as per the developer's preference. Smoother textures is not a bad thing; jaggies and warping are fucking cancer.

The N64 was a great console, just like the PS1 and Saturn were great consoles. Anyone who says stupid shit like "N64 has no games" is easily identifiable as a complete retard and should be promptly ignored. It was a perfect multiplayer system, had great graphics, a cheap price point, and some of the most influential and groundbreaking games ever made.

Apparently you don't have one brain either. If you did, you'd realize you don't need to have 3 hands to use it. Playing a 3D game? Use the analog stick. Playing a 2D game? Use the dpad. Is that too much for your little brain to handle?

are there any non-fanboy arguments as to why this was the better console?

I had both snes and genesis when I was a kid, I enjoyed them both. I've been playing genesis recently after many years away and I'm quite enjoying it, i started to because I was playing gradius 3 and the entire fucking game was slowdown, so I went to truxton instead.

Better shooters and arcade style games and a greater slection of games with mature/violent themes.

The best console was owning both, the Mega Drive and the SNES.
If you only owned one of them, you missed out on half the good shit in the best era of video games.
>>
>>4228076
Avoid Thunder Force IV (Play it on Saturn) and Grind Stormer. They are Gradius 3: Genesis version.

Upper left is Sengoku Turb (pic related), this really great Dreamcast action RPG where you play a girl leading an army of cats to wage war against sheep people. It's a remake/sequel of a PC98 game, and the only thing related to Bio 100% to get a little bit more exposure. The art style and sense of humor alone make it worth playing, but the gameplay is really fun too once you get into that groove of upgrading all your troops and adapting to the weird action.

Bottom right is Germs: Nerawareta Machi, a very interesting open-world survival horror game on the PS1. The artwork doesn't have the name, sorry. First-person, rather unique controls, and a really cool surrealist body horror theme. Some people relate it to Deadly Premonition.

Depends on what your preferences are. If you need a strong, story-driven or mission based narrative, you're out of luck (although the novella that came with the game is a nice touch). Most versions do have a couple of missions which are interesting, but they are very few and non-repeatable.

If you enjoy free-roaming and exploring, it's for you, as long as you don't mind everything looking the same (some versions will at least have some minor variation, like different coloured planets).

In my last playthrough, I aimed to achieve --- ELITE --- status and make 1 million credits. By the time I completed those two goals, I had pretty much seen all the game has to offer and was completely satiated by it. I'm not gonna lie, it does get very repetitive, but combat is still fun even later on, especially once you can afford a full set of military lasers and venture into anarchic systems.

Another optional goal would be to visit each of the 8 galaxies once, but it's only a matter of money and rather laughable if you've already earned 1 mill cr, so I never bothered.

Isn't Oolite just a graphical "upgrade" of Elite?

Pretty much. Elite: The new Kind is also a good way to play the game on modern hardware.

Is it just me, or is Hexen kind of 'meh'? It's extremely easy, none of the enemies are particularly memorable, and there's no "umph" to it. By "umph", I mean that addicting satisfaction you get from slaughtering enemies in Doom. Hexen has more of a "pew" than and "umph"
