Sixth generation appreciation thread. The last generation to be purely about video games, without trying to be cinematic experiences, for the most part. Without overinflated budgets causing developers to play it safe and make completely average games. Without the casual influx dumbing down games, again, for the most part. Which console if your favorite? What are some of your favorite games for each console? Why are Jet Set Radio Future and Metroid Prime the two greatest games ever?
I'm not underage, my first console was not a sixth generation console. I was born in '85, my first console was an SNES.
The Gamecube was the GOAT The Dreamcast was interesting The Xbox was meh The ps2 was fucking garbage. Fuck that console.
Luke Young
These are also the only games the Dreamcast ever had

Bro, I have never played Billy Hatcher. How is it?
Isaac Brown

It's Sonic Team's take on 3D Mario (when Sonic Team was still good)
Alexander Thompson
PS2 > GBA = GC > DC > XB
>implying that the seventh and current gen are not as good as the sixtht
John Long
So it's better than the Sonic Adventure games?
Lincoln Gutierrez
8th gen is pretty awful, the majority of games are just ports of 7th gen games and interactive movies.
Austin Phillips
Wow, you have a real hate boner for the Xbox dont you?
Tyler Martinez
>nier
Xavier Edwards
i've never played Hatcher and I'm willing to wager on yes
Sonic Team should do original shit more
Ian Campbell
GC > XB > DC > PS2
It's an objective fact that most multiplats are better on the GameCube and Xbox. RE4 and Killer7 are pretty crappy on the PS2 in comparison to their GameCube versions.
I don't like Silent Hill. Never got into it. Not my jam. Tell me, what are some really good PS2 games besides Devil May Cry?

You sound salty because someone doesn't like your console the most. Is there a good PS2 exclusive that's anywhere near the level of JSRF?
Colton Williams

Adam Ortiz
Final Fantasy XII
Adam Lopez
Dual Hearts.
Parker Campbell
Nah, I think it's retarded to hate a console. It just had very few games that interested me besides JSRF, Crazy Taxi, and Ninja Gaiden
Christian Flores
>not even Metroid Prime
Fuckin excuse me?
Angel Russell
Crazy Taxi was on Dreamcast though.
Asher King
He probably means the third one.
Logan Ross
Oh, the shitty one? Well nothing of value is lost really.

>I'm not underage, my first console was not a sixth generation console. You are fucking underage, and your first console was a Gaycube.
Cinematic bullshit started in 5th gen. By the time the DC came out, cutscenes were practically mandatory. 9 out of 10 games during 6th gen were nothing but crude button mashers wrapped in a movie.

Blake Sanchez
I'm not sure if I'm playing it right, because I don't enjoy it at all.
Connor Brooks
mfw TimeSplitters is not on these posts nor on this thread.
>colosseum and mario golf but no Prime What the fuck is wrong with you?
Zachary Harris
>no Metroid Prime but Billy Hatcher, Mario Golf, and Pokemon Colosseum >Ico instead of SOTC, no Silent Hill 2/3, no DMC Pls
Ryan Foster

Is this meant to be bait?
Julian Gonzalez
what's wrong with colosseum?
Isaiah Smith
>tfw modded my fat ps2 with an internal sata hard drive disc read error on me now faggot
Adrian Torres
>this game with 5 hours of cutscenes isn't like modern games because I was 6 when it came out
I don't know why you're pretending to be an oldfag. Most people currently on Sup Forums were born in the 90s.
Dominic Gray
God Hand you utter fucking melt

I can't get my computer to connect to my PS2 for hdl_dump.

>PS2 Shadow of the Colossus Dragon Quest 8 MGS3 >GC Resident Evil 4 Metroid Prime Paper Mario TTYD >DC Played some Power Stone and Jet Set Radio at a friend's house, thought they were both amazing >Xbox Literally never even touched one. Actually i remember when it was unveiled i thought it would fail immediately
Jose Young
Nothing in particular other than how you catch Pokemon, just that you'd have it there other than Prime which is one of the most critically acclaimed games ever made. Shit's my favourite Gamecube game.
Juan Nguyen
Outrun 2006 Coast 2 Coast is a game I downloaded recently
I haven't played a game that was purely about gameplay, and was as instantly enjoyable as it in ages
Leo Miller
Sixth generation was the last generation before Playstation was the only reasonable option for a console.
I mean look at this shit. Imagine this being released now, it just wouldn't be made
Sebastian Murphy
Outrun 2006 is GOAT.
Whatever you're playing it on, it's GOAT.
Nathan Jones
just use winhiip to put the games on my man
Carson James
I don't have anything to read IDE drives.
Jordan Myers
usb adapter for like 5 bucks on ebay alternatively buy a sata conversion kit for the ps2 network adapter for like 25 bucks so you can use a 1tb 40 buck hard drive
Oh boy.Time for another neo-Sup Forums thread where people constantly shit all over the PS2 and Xbox while insisting that the GameCube and Dreamcast were perfect. I don't even need to read the thread before posting to predict that this will be true.
James Long
>I'm going to post in this thread without reading a word of it
Ryder Barnes
This was the shit.
Samuel Scott
I've seen dozens of threads like this in the past year, and all are the same. Surprisingly this one isn't completely like what I expected. Only mostly like what I expected. With that said, I enjoyed all 4 of the systems almost equally. Maybe Xbox and DC a tiny little bit less because DC was so short-lived and I didn't get an Xbox until almost the end of that gen.
Julian Powell
>Billy Hatcher Holy fuck that game was so fucking fun
Levi Robinson
6th gen is best generation for softmods
