My snes still works. It's been 15 years and probably a jar of peanut butter (I borrowed it to my friend at some point) and it still works perfectly. I visit goodwill on occasion to search for snes games.

Recently I found Final Fight 3. Boom.
 
Now I have facebook friends that are switching to MW3 cause of the crashes on BF3 PC if you would have gotten on steam or gotten it on Console it wouldnt be crashing. Give me a break MW3 is total shit it would have been better if they updated the engine. But no they just fuck up COD needs to die along with Halo. Suddenly Black Ops dont look so bad. What troubles me is that MW3 already has hackers. Yet Black Ops has none to little and its old now. I mean what the fucking hell these games are pissing me off.
 
wii u is scheduled for 2012 though

If we put that next to previous generation cycles, that still gives the current gen a couple more years for a new MS / PS console. Wii u isn't surpassing the current gen on the graphical front, and the new console is, again, built around a gimmick.

yeah ;P

i never understood the fascination of the old mario games... i mean the music's good, but the gameplay is just okay-ish imo. mario didn't start getting fun until N64 i think.

...Wii U..... Nintendo has officially jumped off the sanity wagon. Gamecube, now that was a good name

wii jew. hehe.

yeah, too bad they have zelda :D it's like the only reason to get a nintendo, as it has always been
 
Just played 2 races in NFS:TR and as expected isn't all that great. Sort of like NFS undercover after NFS:HP2... quite underwhelming.
 
I just had this conversation with Phlegethon like two nights ago on the phone: The wii has some awesome games (including Zelda) and they're reviving some in original side scroller format. The new mario bros was bitchin. The new donkey kong country was awesome...now I've heard they brought back kirby's dreamland? gtfo I'd love to have one.

I still wish they would just license out though, as their consoles aren't worth much to me outside of their classic IP lineup.
 
haha yeah i alway wait until theyre like 10-20$ and then buy the new call of duty. and i usually put in like 15-20 hours into it so its worth it imo.


BF3 ive put close to 50 hours in. there are random crashes, mostly limited to joining a shitty server and it disconnecting you immediately :lol:


old mario was......well i suppose if you didnt grow up with it you might miss the magic of it. the first 3 or so levels were a breeze, but usually worlds 5-8 were a pain to get through. i suppose it's like ocarina of time versus a link to the past. both perfect games. but ive heard kiddies on game forums say windwaker is the best......which....is impossible :lol:
 
^Agreed. I didn't finish it, but nothing it could do could ever make it better than Ocarina Of Time. (Or Majora's Mask, which is a close second to me).
 
yeah i honestly cant choose between a link to the past and ocarina of time. both are as near to perfect as it gets, beat both like 8 times each with my dad


majoras mask was great but not quite as good. windwaker was colourful but not very fun (take an hour to sail anywhere). twilight princess was alright, beat it once and had quite a bit of fun. the nes zeldas are the only games ive ever played that were too hard to finish :lol:. zelda 2 was impossible haha, i eventually got to the 5th boss, who was like......a wizard who teleported making him impossible to hit. years later i found out if you happened to go way out of your way you could find a spell that would reflect his fireballs. never went back
