It has more hardware revisions than any console ever released and is impossible for real people to figure out.

You sure the Genesis isn't more applicable there? :lol

FRENCH IS THE LANGUAGE OF LOVERS.  

FACT: When it comes to aesthetics of consoles, the MegaDrive/Genesis is BUTT UGLY GOOFY KIDS TOY. Seriously.

I just read all 21 pages. I enjoyed it thoroughly. BT's exaggerated rant at the end left me irked, speechless, then amused.

Honestly I kind of wish I hadn't read this thread. Now I feel I need to get my Duo-R RGB or S-Video modded. After I read Joe Red's post about the PCE's flickering backgrounds (Fantasy Zone) I immediately got up to see for myself. I guess I could live with it. Though I don't want to.

The Mega-CD was pretty popular in Europe, and of course--nobody knew what a Turbo Grafx was.  

Being from the uk it was known as a pc engine in this neck of the woods at lease as far as i was concerned, the turbo was mythical story of intrigue mystery of release dates, pictures in magazines and tele games saying the uk version is here, but never seeing a consoles or games anywhere its only like 20 years later you can buy them on ebay.

It's strange , i went to london in '96 and and accidentally found a gamestore
with a wand full of PCE games and to my surprise, even quite cheap.

Bought about 20 games there.

but going to some UK retro-forums, the PCE is almost inexistent.

Pfffttt you are all complete losers. PC Engine is better than everything!

graphcis:
PC Engine has more colors more sprites mroe backgronds and more awsome visuals. No Super Nitnedo. no TurboGrafx-16 or Geneiss game looks as good as any PC Engine game. Go to hell if you di You maybe think that the SNES has more colros but they are fake colors not real genesis has fake sprites we should laugh at genesis


Tell me that the PCE doesn't look like the best grfix this is the evidence pictures odnt lie

audo sound:
PC engine is once again best with better audio higher qulity and mbetter musics. u may think gensis and snes has more channels and more modern audio but pce is betetr because it can play tru stereo voice vlcps. Don't even bring TurboGrafx-16 into the argument beciause PCE detroyes TG-16 audio. TG-16 sounds like beefed up NES but PCE sounds like areola man. only losers would

CPU:
The central processing unti in the PCE is much better than eithe the SNES, Gensis or TurboGrafx-16. The PCE CPU processes real number in real time to make better games grpahcis and sounds but the other snes turbo and Genesis processors have to process slowly and with darkness and they suck and can't play games aat least not good ones.

controll"
pC Engine has the best controller with the fasteest presponse time and the other feel. snes geensis are like crap and have lsow response time they are suck. TuboGrafx-16 controller sucks because it has backwards numbers they can't even count in the correct direction but PCE has them in order because in Japan they read from right to left. anythibg in japan is betetr ythan everything in th eusa no exception

gamepaly:
The games play much better on PC Engine because of the hyper speed 1-6-bit power it's the only tru 16-bit system of the world. The games are also much more

the Games:
The PC Engine has the best game liebary as well snes and Genesis only have games that are not any fun at all and play like crap athat nobody wants to play but every PC engine game is a winner which has the fun to extreme.

Oh my! It must be fanboy mating season. The amount of "Nerdosterone" in this thread just jumped by 256%!

Actually I would really like to know what the game in the lower right hand corner is. It's making my nipples hard.

Wow, I hope I'm not the only one who hasn't heard about this game. Now I wants it.

[Punch]

I'm going to drop the harsh truth here, it's that the PCE doesn't have AWESOME helicopter games that make your boner have a boner like the GENESIS.

AND I TOLD YOU GUYS ALREADY THERE IS NO KYOUKO TIGER ON THE GENESIS DON'T WHINE LIKE THE OTHER FORUM MOD WHO BANNED ME (moron).

Yes, it could have been better, but it's actually a decent game.  (Of course, I love simultaneous multiplayer action, so I may be partially biased.)
