[QUOTE="CuteCakes"][QUOTE="millerlight89"] You must have just started gaming.

I have owned: Master System NES Mega Drive SNES Saturn PS1 Dreamcast DS PS3 Xbox 360 PS3 is the weakest link.

Out of that list you provided, the Xbox360 is easily the weakest link.

Not easily. And it's called opinion have you ever heard of it?

i've never owned a system that could be considered the worst of something. that said, my N64 collection was rather poor, but that's because i was a kid and my parents wouldn't just drop home with new games, so it only got 5 games plus random rentals.

Well even though I own a virtual boy im going to say sega master system.. Because when people come over the virtual boy is such a fun thing to break out and show new friends etc. Laughs are a plenty with it. But the sega master system ugh.. I got like 20 games on ebay and they all suck.. even the good ones. Phantasy Star, Wonderboy II and III were awesome.. But the genesis games in those series are so much better they are practically unplayable.

I wouldn't be gaming right now if it wasn't for the XBox 360, so no. Its a terrific console that is mercilessly bashed by Cows for no particular reason other than it isn't made by Sony.

I don't know how my parents did it, but my N64 collection was awesome.

I bought Rogue Squadron, and Goldeneye myself, but then my parents bought me DK64, Super Mario 64, Mario Kart, Diddy Kong Racing, Banjo Kazooie 1 & 2, Zelda: OoT, and a few others that were lost in time.

Same goes for my SNES. Based on games my parents bought most people would say my SNES collection is amazing :P

That sentence applies to you perfectly by switching PS3 bashing and isnt made by Microsoft. "The PS3 is a terrific console, but I bash it constantly because it isn't made by Microsoft"

Btw you and WilliamRLBaker really need to hang out. I am sure the two of you would quickly become the best of friends with all your conversations devoted towards bashing the PS3

my SNES was basically 3 or 4 games i bought with the system (DKC 3, mario world, a pirated and awful sonic game (don't judge me, i was 4), and one of those awesome mickey games from the SNES era) plus a bunch of games my friend gave me when his SNES fried. my N64 collection was mario 64, pokemon stadium, megaman legends/64 (which i begged my parents to get me :P), paper mario and tony hawk 2 (because my parents decided to sell games for a while, and when they stopped, we had tons of copies of mario 64 and THPS2, so we just unboxed one). i used to hate OoT... i rented it and i'd get lost in the kokiri village, and the boko babas scared me >.>

I've owned:

Amiga 500
NES
Sega Master System
Sega Master System II
Sega Megadrive (Genesis in the States I think)
SNES
Playstation
Playstation 2
Playstation 3
XBOX 360

Owned by my brother was an N64 and an original XBOX and I played them plenty, so I suppose you could say if it lived in the same house as me, I owned them.

Either way, for me the consoles I played the least would be the XBOX and 360. My 360 RROD'd twice, and my brother didn't get many games I was interested in for the XBOX. The 360 has some great games, but the well has been running really really dry the last few years.

Just the one you liked the least, got the leas amount of enjoyment out of. It's opinion, no real science or structure here. :)



Oh. PS3.

You don't own a PS3. And I'm actually going to say DS. I just haven't got games for it. Hopefully I will find some money to remedy that with GS: Dark Dawn and DQ9, but so far I only own Pokemon Pearl and Nintendogs lmao.

The worst system i've ever owned is the PC IMO. I have a mediocre laptop and i have never been able to play all the great games that are available for the PC which really bugs me.

The Wii. I bought one for Monster Hunter Tri, & after clocking 80 hours I lost interest & realised there was nothing else I wanted to buy that didn't use motion controls.

Wow the system I had the most fun with ever was the Gamecube, that was were it was at. Playing PSO and Kirby Air Ride with 4 people was the best ever. Playing Melee, and all those 4 player games. Especially since PS2 didn't have 4 player, Gamecube was better for me.

I would say PSP, I have like 4 good games, I'm still waiting for the good games...

Hard question. I've liked all of my consoles at one point, even the ones I've sold. I was really hyped for the Wii-mote in 2006, the potential was huge. Later on I was a bit disappointed when I noticed how much the hardware limited that said potential. The lack of power also limited the 3rd party support. It looked like some devs didn't even want to try *coughUbisoftcoughActivisioncough* and some of the ports were just horrendous ( bad framerate ****** up the controls, friggin' PSP ports :( etc.) I liked the motion controls but damn...

Wii was the first console I've ever sold. Looking forward to PSMove and what it can offer in the future. I Still want to play the 1st party titles so I'm just going to borrow my brothers unit for them + plus I'm pretty excited for the 3DS. Great 3rd and 1st party support!

I'd say the GBA, but I never the less I feel that I didn't give it a chance, and I'm looking forward to downloading some of the games on the 3DS.

Oh. PS3.

The question is "What's the Worst System You've Ever OWNED?" not what's the one you hate for no apparent reason the most. Anyway... not quite sure. If handhelds count maybe the Game Boy Micro, it wasn't bad but it was just unnecessary.

For me, it's gotta be the Gamecube. Not that there was anything that I could remember being fundimentally wrong with it. There just weren't any games I liked for it. By the time the last console generation ended, I only had like seven games for it. :P

My Wii isn't looking much better, though. I gotta stop buying Nintendo. They just don't get my kind of games on their consoles anymore.

this excpet replace GC with PS2 and replace seven with 2.

For my family, it was the PS3. They just weren't happy that Sony took out Backwards compatibility with newer models. and the fact that they play PS2 games more than PS3 (their favorite games on the PS2 are the two Champions of Norrath and Guitar Hero/Rock Band games). They also have a hard time finding the older models that play PS2 games.

For me alone, however. I really don't know. The Wii may be the lowest Nintendo console in my opinion, but I still love it because it gets games like Call of Duty 4, Tatsunoko vs Capcom, and I can play my Gamecube collection. So that's why I can't answer for myself.

Haha I actually agree with the PS2 being the worst console. But that was my fault. I'm only 15, so I've only had 3 generations (N64, PS2, PS3) and the PS2 was the worst. With the N64 my parents owned a video rental store so they new which games were popular and good, so I had THPS2, Golden Eye, Ocarina of Time, Pokemon Stadium (YEAH WHAT!). With the PS2 I chose the games, my only good ones were Jak and Daxter, NFS:HP2, FFX and FFXII. With the PS3 I know what I like.

Proud owner of a CD-i. Family got it for free back in 1993. Unfortunately I never got around to playing such classics as Hotel Mario or Link: The Faces of Evil.

As bad as it was, I actually liked playing Battleship on it. [Youtube link]
