And it said I am not a fanboy... but, the truth is, I sorta am. I love my 360, I like the idea of the Wii, but I really have a nasty taste in my mouth with Sony and the PS3. Well, maybe I'm not a fanboy, just a hater.

THAMMER17142d ago

I wonder if any one else will take this test and tell the truth on all answers.

Sphinx7142d ago (Edited 7142d ago )

...but I feel the need to explain my "haterness" a bit. I will definitely give Sony's PS3 a look, and if it becomes something worth getting, I'll get it. However, the PS2 broke down twice on me... the online sucked... they never delivered on their one million promises (emotion engine? wtf?)... etc. I felt burned by Sony, lied to, and now they are going a step further by taking their customers for granted, "The PS3 doesn't even have to play games and people would still buy it because it is a Playstation"?!? Sony really has a lot of making up to do before I give them another chance. That's all. *sob*

Nintendo - 300

"You aren't a fanboy, since you love both Nintendo and Sony. But you really hate Bill Gates and everything he creates. Or at least you don't care about anything he creates. "
I think not owning an original xbox and planning on using my grad school roomate's 360 instead of buying one myself really hurt me.

I thought it was kinda odd how it said I liked Nintendo more than Sony considering how ps3 will be my main console and wii will be my secondary console. Oh well.

My scores: Nintendo, 125 points; Sony, 285; Microsoft, 170.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle2d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Why the Wii is Such a Nostalgic System in 2026

The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

jznrpg8d ago

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree8d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai8d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde9d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy9d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand1259d ago (Edited 9d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
