Here`s one to add to the Console info Section,i know it`s not old considering the age of some in that section,surely though in todays fast paced world and how short a life span new consoles have it`s worth a mention.

I Know you can`t cover everything but it was worth a shot and you gotta admit there were some great games on it.....Resident Evil....need i say more.

Although deep down I am a Dreamcast fanatic (thx to Grapes of gorf) Laughing

I still love my snes and NES, My personal SNES system has had the RETROBRAD make over which is well worth it.. it runs faster, at fullscreen and plays all games as far as the NES goes playing Gyromite with Rob Robot is something that was way ahead of its time My kids marvel at how you team up with a 'Robot' to get through the game

To be honest the only game i ever really played on playstation was tony hawk pro skater (i guess because i like skateboarding!)

Well, sorry I must say SNES. Well, I never owned one myself, but I had to live by someone for a few months and he had one and I was totally addicted to it.

I do like the PS1 too, for those top arcade games!

Yes, I still have the 50 midway games collection on 4 discs. It's cool!

But I also liked the beat'm ups and the sonic games.

Ah i have my playstation console again,sitting here playing resident evil 2... ah what memories,tell you what my ex girlfriend used to be a assistant manager in a music & video shop well every now and again you`d have a rep come in trying to promote some new game on the ps1 well you would be amazed at the amount of free games i used to get,reps would bring in promo copies of games and i used to get them,the only downside was no instructions or sometimes no covers but they were full games,not to sure but i`d figure that a promo copy of a game would be quite collectable because they were often given out before the official release date.

That sounds like a neat deal! getting games for nothing even before they were released Smile

Okay the PS 1 is a nice console,I do have about 50 games for mine and NEED FOR SPEED is the best one (all 3 of the ones I own), I found the PS1 to be very REAL/LIFELIKE when it came to their Car SIM games.

Ressurecting my PS1 at the moment, I've discovered how to play import games so I'm heading over to ebay to get all those shooters I couldn't get like:

Einhander

Gradius Galaxies

Man I'm going to have some fun
