Both the NES and Dreamcast have a naivete about them... "Entertainment System" sounds golly-gee quaint today, and the "Dreamcast" reminds one of fluffy clouds and pastel spirals, horrendous voice-overs, fuzzy polygons, and cheesy pop soundtracks.
Gaming entered middle school with the introduction of the PS2, and became kind of a dick. #nintendo

Hard to really compare the two as they were more than a decade apart. It's not apples and tacos, but it may be apples and oranges.
If I could pick any old system, I wouldn't mind getting in some Star Raiders on the Atari 5200 one more time...as long as the controllers lasted longer than 6 months for a change. #nintendo

Hmmm, I think I'll wrap my Dreamcast and give it to myself for Christmas this year. #nintendo

man a freaking mint condition master system would be dope for a christmas gift. almost all my consoles/hand helds were gifts.
lets see... i got an ipod touch (to specifically play games) last year, a ds in 04, a mint condition turbo grafx 16 in 01, a dreamcast in 99, a saturn in 96, a game gear in 92, and my first video game related christmas gift/console ever. that bad boy in the pic (i asked for an nes, my parents made an awesome mistake). that was in december of 89 and i still have the box and all the inserts. when i mention it or show it off, most ppl are like 'wth is that?"
i got my nes and xbox for my birthdays in 90 and 02 respectively. growin up was fun man.

Garou or Last Blade on Neo Geo and Final Fantasy "III" with Metal Warriors on the SNES? That would be the best damn Christmas since I got my PS2 back in 2001. #nintendo

nowadays 26 year old me has no time to keep playing the same level for 6 hours straight. I'd rather enjoy the more limited amount of time I have for gaming #nintendo

In my last post I forgot to mention that Panzer Dragoon Saga was lent to me by a friend, and it was very enjoyable! And, wow.. amazing graphics for a Saturn. #nintendo

Yes I understand you cannot expect hundreds of unique voices or faces but one can expect much more than they delivered. That and some real feeling personality.
The casting sucked after having one spell. The lack of armor was stupid some of the clothing had very obvious clipping errors like one jacket ended up coming through the waist and hanging over the front. Then there's the dog you cannot make leave you alone and the no fear of ever being killed.
The idea of guns tends to kill out armor but when it was still flintlock guns we still had armor so why don't they?
To top it all off the problem with a lot of games. The black and white good and evil choice with no real depth, It's help people to be good kill them to be bad no intricate choices to be made.
It's and rpg shouldn't it be more in depth than it was? I can understand not over complicating a game for your casual gamer but an rpg should be in depth and not made to cater the casual gamer.
That all said and just scratching the surface how was fable 2 better? #listsoflists
