Namco vs. SEGA

[sggg]

Hrm... I dunno, but I am beginning to think I don't like "versus" threads. My vote goes to Sega but not because I dislike Namco. I happen to like Namco as well. They have made quite a few quality games.

But for me, Sega is quite simply my favourite developer. I'd go so far as to say that if I made a list of every game I've ever loved SEGA probably made over half of them!

Was Ms. Pac-Man not really not a Namco game? Pac-Man was great for its day, but the Ms. totally outdid it.

The first part of this gets a John McEnroe Award:



Space Harrier, Hang-On & Super Hang-On, After Burner, Enduro Racer, and Quartet aren't better than Pac-Man or Galaga? I don't buy that. Pac-Mania and Galaga '88 could hang with these games however.

What racing game did Namco have in the late 80's? Final Lap, which had one track. Four Trax and Winning Run may not have been bad, but there's no Namco 80's racer that can come close to Power Drift.

Sure, I voted for Namco- but I reiterate that this is based on their recent fare. Things can always change.

not one of those games is better then PacMan or Galaga.

and you're brining up what was popular again to compare them. i mean crap, everyone here thinks VF is a better game then Tekken, but Tekken is much more popular here in the states, so does that make it a better game?

Wow, I'm not gonna read this whole thread, but it seems that Sega is SLAUGHTERING Namco.

That's a damn shame. I vote Namco.

Namco is no slouch by any means.

But when push comes to shove, Sega has WAAAAAAAY to many great games that overcome whatever Namco can push out.

Even if we were to give Namco the edge with a direct comparison of games (i.e. Tekken vs VF, Ridge Racer vs Daytona, or even Klonoa vs Sonic) there are just too many other games that Sega has created for me to even consider Namco in the same league, overall.

Namco vs Konami or Capcom is a much more fair fight, in my opinion.

Play on Playaz....

I gotta go SEGA.

I like what I like. The fact that there is a SEGA bias here doesn't change anything. If I said I didn't like SEGA to even the odds, I wouldn't be helping anything. I'd just be going along with the crowd.
