I agree Sony sucks.

I have never owned a single console or handheld from them nor will I ever.

PS1 and PS2 have some amazing games. The PS1 is what got me into JRPG's so it will always have a special place in my heart

Let me explain.

I have disliked Sony ever since their smear campaign against Nintendo in the mid 90's. I had a N64 for that generation and I got real tired of their crap and the crap that the other kids than picked up from Sony.

I also hated the PS 1 controller.  No D-pad what the hell?  No analog stick stranded?

Ever since then I have stayed away from Sony.  I simply have no desire to own or to play anything on a Sony machine.

So, you're a biased nintendo fanboy.

This beats the N64's meth induced controller layout and dodgy stick that breaks after a few Mario Party sessions.

I use one of these for my PS3 and PC. Haven't checked if it works on my PS4. Official Saturn pads for life. Works with every fighter on PS3 I've tried so far, except Chaos Code, I haven't really had time to check to see if it works, let alone play it.

That is pretty awesome.  Do you know if it works on XB360 as well?  Just states PS3 in the link.

I switched to team N64 on launch day after the Genesis/Sega CD. Then after 8 months I realized I had made a huge mistake and picked up a PS1. Honestly my second favorite system-of-the-time behind the Dreamcast.

Yea yea, I said this once too.  Just get a ps1 or 2, after a little while your mind willl change.

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

I'm not butthurt.  what you said just made no sense.

You said the PS1 had no D-pad.  It does.

also, all of my friends back when we were 10 got N64.   I picked Playstation and proceeded to laugh at them holding those N64 controllers like a bunch of gimps while pretending they were enjoying Goldeneye and shit.

I don't think N64 ever got a game this good:



Jet Force Gemini MAYBE.   Kind of.

Not even Ys on the PSP?  We can't be friends.

It doesn't bother me much, but the fake-four-separate-buttons design is a pretty common complaint.

Fanboy alert, fanboy alert!!! :P You're like some chaps at the ASSEMbler forums that claim that the Saturn was the greatest console ever and spit at Sony's products at every opportunity. I suggest you give a try to some good PS1/2 games sometime, it will change your mind.

About the controller, I hate the "divided but together" design of the Sony control pad. I hate when the controller registers Up + Right when I'm only pressing the Up button... this is problematic specially on fighting games. For me it's always like that since the PS1! (not sure about PS4 pad though, never touched one)

I'm sorry the bad Nintendo man touched you when you were little and you are still upset. :P :lol:

In all seriousness though if you enjoy Sony products then play and enjoy Sony products.  I prefer Nintendo, Sega and NEC consoles.  The world isn't going to end if some people don't like the PlayStation nor will it end if people hate the N64. 

At the end of the day play whatever you like and have fun.  That's the name of the game :D
