Is playing old consoles like Sega Gen, N64 acceptable?

NES and Genesis were the last bro consoles.

Then PS1 came and everyone jumped onto the shitty "let's make our arcades in 3D making them not fun" bandwagon.
dreamcast was the last bro console, especially after sega said "fuck this shit", released segagaga and then withdrew from the market.

Saturn had it even worse, it was supported for like 1,5 years... And it had good 2D support I hear, so it could have had a different style of library than the PS. Damn it.

Though whatever, still has more games than the PS3 and it didn't cost half as much even with the games - some which are collector-priced - so I'm not complaining about that one.

10 YEARS FROM NOW IT WILL BE PS1 AS THE LAST BRO CONSOLE

THE RULE IS THAT THE LAST COOL CONSOLE IS THE LAST ONE YOU PLAYED BEFORE YOU BECAME AN EDUCATED ELITE PC GAMER

PS1 had some really good games. Alundra was one of the BEST Zelda rip-off's (2d ones). But Activision really screwed the sequel.

Herc's Adventures was p. cool.

And Disney's Hercules is my favorite cartoon/movie based game. It really felt like something out of SNES era.
Also, the streamlined platformers were pretty fun (Spyro, Crash Bandicoot), and I even had more blast playing those that SuperMario64.

I wonder if it ever occured to Blobert that people may have played on PC and NES at the same time due to both platforms offering different kind of games not messed up by a multiplatform incest yet?

Consoles were fine back when they were a separate entity. Indeed, consoles were never a problem, cross platforming is.

Cross platforming never been the problem , you could find ultima games ported on every media possible, c64 nintendo snes amiga,etc, the problem is mainstreaming and catering to the dumbest casual player. Its possible to do wonderful stuff on consoles, but since the xbox360 you hardly get any sophisticated games.

Those NES/SNES Ultima games were really, really terrible. What you'd expect when you try to port down. Today's multiplatform games are the equivalent of making a game for the NES or SNES then releasing that same game for the PC and if you're lucky maybe you'll get some decent controls but don't count on it.

In Carrier Command you have a base ship.
You have units which you command in real time and can take over them in first person.

It's as much RTS as Herzog Zwei.

YOU ARE ONE OF THE CLOSET CONSOLETARDS WHO HAVE HELPED RUIN PC GAMING

You are a retard. I always said I've played a lot of console games, even my first post in this thread says that I played on NES and Genesis a lot and then some on PS1.

I bash console shit because it polluted the non-console genres while console genres like arcades also got ruined first by stupid 3D and then by shitty indie devs from PC. Not because it's console-related something.

Fuck you are retarded beyond belief

So care to provide at least something where I hold KotOR as a standard of RPG games?

Just because I said that KotOR is more of RPG than NV (which is Oblivion with guns) and TW2 (which is a primitive 2-button console slasher), as in games that are not RPGs at all doesn't mean I hold it as a standard of RPG genre, my dear retard. In fact quite the contrary - even KotOR is better than those two pieces of shit.

This is called shades of grey, a concept obviously alien to you.
