Vic 20

girv · 08 September 2007, 15:42

Amstrad CPC, but I'd like to have voted for VIC-20 as well !

Graham Humphrey · 08 September 2007, 15:43

I went for the PlayStation in the end.

P-J · 08 September 2007, 16:17

I know it's tough to vote for one machine

Steve · 08 September 2007, 16:22

Has to be the Commodore 64. Happy days spent playing Dizzy.

Retroplay · 08 September 2007, 20:09

I probably should have voted C64, but I went for SNES.
I just love everything about Nintendo's kickass console.

Skylight · 08 September 2007, 21:21

Sorry ... but nothing beats a Dreamcast in playing games ... not even the good old C64 or the beloved AMIGA

PSX and PS2 were more successful and had much more game titles therefore but they can't beat DC ... never ever ...

too bad ... no DC2 will ever see the daylight ...

will go now to play Soul Calibur on DC!

... and/or Shenmue ...

PaulyQ · 09 September 2007, 00:37

Well... as Skylight says... nothing beats my Dreamcast.... except er... the Wii... love this little machine!! But back on topic... I chose the Spectrum, reasons... pure nostalgia for me... owned a 16k, then a 48 and then a 128 +2 - loved that machine and still have a boatload of stuff I still play about with via emulator.

P-J · 09 September 2007, 01:34

Looks like it's a head to head between the C64 and PSX.

But you never know, the games poll changed loads over the course of it's life!

I just had to vote pc, that is what I used for games back then...

Dizzy · 09 September 2007, 10:41

Well I don't think I'll have to tell what I voted

as long as my name is Dreamcast Dizzy, but I could have voted on pc too, as I play many adventure games on my pc...
But no machine is more beautiful than the DC

and a picture of a naked dreamcast here (not worksafe

)

i had to vote sony playstation,
because thats what we bought our son for exmas years ago,
NOW i have it

at the moment, playing abes odd world, its efin hard .

Should've divided it into the two different decades. I feel dirty for choosing the Playstation over the C64 - their age differences is too big to be comparable. The C64 got me into gaming. The Playstation introduced me to consoles. I wasn't a console fan until I bought one of these, out of curiosity.

That's a fair comment about the decades

BinoX · 10 September 2007, 21:11

Had to vote Dreamcast... I would have voted Sega Saturn (or atari Jaguar perhaps) but those options weren't there.

Dizzy · 10 September 2007, 21:22

BinoX

(also for the vote on Lucas in the other thread

)
