Every console seems to have something 'extra' to offer. But how many of these bonuses do you really use? Here are 20 console features past and present that no-one values, or maybe tried once then never used again.
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
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.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
Do people even use the PS3 for games? I mean they use it for movies, but how about the games? That seems like a pretty usless feature to me, well... that and sixaxis. MS got rid of it's useless feature the HD DVD, does that mean Sony will give up gaming side of the PS3, since it's pretty well... uh... "useless"?
If you asked a PS3 fan they would all say "I got 1080p" which they don't, because thier playing it on an old "get up and change the channel TV" because they spent all the money on the console.
I have a computer monitor that's displays 1080p. The tech is still to new and the price is still to high. When plasma first came out, very few people could spend $5000 to $15,000 thousand on a TV. I'm going out on a limb, and going to assume it's still like that :)
1080p 40" TV
1080p compatible TV's are kinda cheap now. I just bought my second one, a 60" Panasonic plasma for the bedroom and moved the bigger one in the living so my girl don't bug me. Sadly I can't use the plasma one though...... well, not yet. lol
I should be set when GT5P arrives to the states. Only thing missing now is the G25 wheel. The c0ckpit is already about 3/4 finished. Can't wait!
well I use 1080p got lg 42 inch for 1300 not bad price and pretty good specs. I use the 360 pc connectivity all the time, I show family and friends my photos. I rec my tv show on my computer and play back on my 360, and download some pod cast to play back on my console, as well lesson to my huge music collection, plus have made a few play list while play games like cod4. plus music sounds awesome on my jbl home theater system. a person that doesn't use the feature really should.
