System of the Year

[Johnny Nighttrain]

You're missing the gimmicky coolness of it Besides, it's a better alternative to carrying around consoles to say, relatives houses for a day.

i see the gimmick. i even considered buying one until i saw that that piece of shit has no Galaga. seriously, that's just fuckin digusting. that's a joke. that's just inexcusable.

seriously, as a gigantic Namco fan, i am seriously fuckin offended. how the hell do you make a product like (very cool gimmick), and not put Galaga on there? it's fuckin Galaga!!! i let Pole Position slide for obvious reasons, but no Galaga...seriously...offended. that shit doesn't fly man. not cool Namco.

It's a nice companion to the GBA in situations like that.

that's a much better companion to the GBA for situations like that. not to mention that it has a better game selection, and is also $5 cheaper in price.

anyways, it really just is common sense to get yourself any of the museums. Namco Museum contains Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Galaxian, Galaga, Dig Dug, Pole Position, and Pole Position II. The game also features arranged versions of Galaga, Dig-Dug, and Pac-Man which are really good (especially the Galaga ones).

you can't go wrong with any of them, but i recommend getting it on xbox or GameCube, since Mass Media bothered to take advantage of those shoulder buttons and put in anolog steering, gas, and brakes for Pole Position.

so yeah, get it on xbox or GameCube. the GBA version is also a must buy for anyone who owns the system. they're perfect portable games, it's cheap, and it's easily the best compilation on the system.

as for that other piece of shit Galaga-less mother fucker...guys, don't support. seriously, it's just not right making something like that and not putting Galaga on it. i mean, im probably the biggest Namco fan here, and no way in hell would i buy that.

Didn't you used to hate the Xbox, Slip?

The first year was awful. Down right awful. In my opinion, it was the biggest turn around I had ever seen. I compare it to say the NGage churning out GBA quality games. I think it was omfgninjas in the recent article who had to admit that he was wrong about the XBOX sucking as well. So yes, I was wrong on this account..the GC though is in a league beyond where I thought the XBOX was though.

Lucas said a lot of stuff

DUDE..GIMMICKY...COOL.. =D

Oh, and oddly enough I just played the Namco Museums for GBA on Christmas Day. My aunt had it so I tried it out. Curse the man who invented scrolling Ms. Pac Man. Then I put it on full screen and I had to squint my way to victory. Bah..

I stink like someone who bought a Gamecube and realized it was the worst thing I bought since the Sega CD, which I hold in higher esteem since Ground Zero Texas to this day is still a great comedy.

Dude, that's offensive. I played my Sega CD a hell of a lot more than my GC. It's got Lunar 1/2 (which make it a better system for RPGs), Shining Force, Snatcher, Sonic CD and ummm...Sewer Shark AND MANY MORE! Don't forget all of the CD+G and karaoke titles you could play.

Yea, Gamecube is pretty awesome.

It's surprising to come into this thread and see so many supporting our favorite little system.

That's neat that some people etch little love messages into their favorite consoles too.

Viva la Gamecube!

I give an edge to PS2 for having slightly more original content, but in general there have been too many remakes, rereleases, and sequels on all systems this year. As for GCN, all I can say is... my N64 collection is complete once again!

[Mzo]

Ah, GBA and Xbox are tied at #1.

Sounds about right for the year... though the Xbox really came through near the end. What an upset.

[kabuki]
