water cooler :: fav game system



PC.
The first game to which i was addicted was centepede....that roller ball just made sense.  Now the mouse and keyboard are like the descendants of the centepede controls.
say what you want, but I voted XBox because of Star Wars Battlefront and Halo 2.  I know playstation 2 is great as well, and I think Playstation 3 will blow XBox out of the water (but that isn't out yet).  I like the fact the the controller has three motion controls, four buttons, and two triggers.  I aalso like the graphics and the gameplay.
haWHAT!

No NeoGeo!?
My favorite game was "Risky Rescue" that was played on an Atari 400 (modifed with an enhanced keyboard).
The wife and I spent many hours copying code from "Antic" magazine to tape drive and were thrilled when
the game started and was playable.Pong was the dumbest game "console" I owned but what the heck
you have to start somewhere eh!

I can still remember when my dad shelled out nearly $300 for the "LATEST"  :D  game system available.....Intellivision.

I thought that was the greatest game console ever. A few family members got a console and we would get together and have all kinds of tournaments.

I haven't done much gaming since those days. I guess I would be considered "old school"  :)
