they should be vying for my money by making good games, not by paying publishers to make a game exclusive to their platform. I can forgive 1st party exclusives being a thing since thats their own IP, but paying for exclusivity or timed exclusivity is cancerous and bad for the industry.
>pc gaming destroyed this industry
If you have a gayman PC there is no reason to own a console other than Nintendies and even that is a glorified handheld.
Dreamcast emulation can be done on a toaster, gamecube is also not much more demanding
ps2 you'll need a decent build, xbox is still not good enough to emulate
How much would you be spending on the tablet? Because you might be better off buying a cheapish gaming laptop instead for like around 500-600. Thats what I did last year. Bought a lenovo laptop with a ryzen 5 and a gxt1650 for like 600 and its seems to be able to run every PS2 game I've tried so far but I haven't tried God of War as I dont like those games so I dunno if it would struggle with that.
6th gen was some of the most fun I've ever had with video games. My GCN library is still the largest for any console. 7th gen made me lose hope in video games and I didn't buy another console until the Switch.
the ea sports games released between 2004-2007 on this gen were actually amazing games. they had more content and features than even the new releases do now. nfl 2k5 and mvp baseball 2005 are also both still the best sports games ever made >b-but sports games are for le casuals
just admit you never tried to play them seriously and move on
Dreamcast is like your moronic little cousin that you let into the family photo because you feel bad for him. It does not belong with the other 3, most of it's library was moved to the Gamecube anyway.
>changing the subject to Americans for no reason
The Xbox sold almost 3 times as many consoles as the Dreamcast. Even the Gamecube sold over twice as many.
Probably.

>the era where consolization began
No.
Gaming was best when every platform had neat exclusives and pc gaming was a small niche
Unironically kys homosexual. pc gaming destroyed this industry.
>exclusives are a good thing
>spending $400 on a console to play the one game youre interested in is good for the industry
>all companies vying for your money by creating great games for their platforms
>this is a bad thing
pcBlack folk are anti-gaming.

Current era is better because you can play all those games and more.
Take me back
PS2 > Gamecube > Dreamcast > Xbox
why are some PS2 discs blue
i was going through my collection the other day and noticed it for the first time like some kind of mandela effect
Different sizes. Single layer and dual layer dvds.
I think blue discs were easier to get at the time.
Blue discs = CDs 700MB max
Silver discs = DVDs 4.7GB max (unless dual layer which is 8.5GB max)
>Silver discs = DVDs 4.7GB max (unless dual layer which is 8.5GB max)
What were the biggest PS2 games?
Yakuza 1&2. God of War 2.

It was the last era where consoles weren't just locked down PCs
Nobody gave a shit about the other two
wrong
theres a lot of deranged middle aged sega kids out there who never shut up about the dreamcast
The Dreamcast and the xbox had basically no worthwhile exclusives especially the xbox
XBMC was Xbox exclusive so youre wrong
Based and media player pilled
Plus halo, best version of every PS2 third-party (San andreas) and emulators
Nobody cared about Halo outside America
So? It's still the best 6th Gen console anyway, specially at the time
No
european detected
Whys that? Yes I am from Europe. But we never hated Sega. Sega was always viewed as better than Nintendo here in the Megadrive days.
Nobody gave a shit about gamecube except autistuc nintendies.
Well literally nobody at all cared about the Xbox and the Dreamcast, especially the Xbox.
Bros, what is the best way to emulate gen 6? I do not have a powerful PC, so I'm thinking powerful Tablet like Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 with hdmi cable?
Dreamcast emulation can be done on a toaster, gamecube is also not much more demanding
ps2 you'll need a decent build, xbox is still not good enough to emulate

I can run most games on Dolphin on my nearly 10 year old work laptop.
>era marked by death of 3000 innocent americans
I dont think so
It was the last gen of consoles actually worth owning. Then the 7th gen happened and ruined everything.
>dlc
>casual audience becomes the main target
>identity politics beginning to rear their ugly head
What else?
6th gen was some of the most fun I've ever had with video games. My GCN library is still the largest for any console. 7th gen made me lose hope in video games and I didn't buy another console until the Switch.
The only kids I knew that had Xboxes didn't have shit for games.
>hey bro lets play halo
Okay what's next
>uuuh, sports game
Sports games were at their peak during that Gen though, NBA Street, Def Jam, SSX, Fifa Street...
The more arcade style sports games were fun but the yearly main sports titles were and still are crap for bottom of the barrel casual players.
the ea sports games released between 2004-2007 on this gen were actually amazing games. they had more content and features than even the new releases do now. nfl 2k5 and mvp baseball 2005 are also both still the best sports games ever made
>b-but sports games are for le casuals
just admit you never tried to play them seriously and move on
Sports games are just as boring as the sports they're based on.
>Woah the guy caught/did not catch the ball!
Dreamcast is like your moronic little cousin that you let into the family photo because you feel bad for him. It does not belong with the other 3, most of it's library was moved to the Gamecube anyway.
Dreamcast was more relevant than Xbox. Its PS2 > Gamecube > Dreamcast > Xbox
Dreamcast was already dead when the 6th gen was just getting started.
Nobody except Americans cared about the xbox
>changing the subject to Americans for no reason
The Xbox sold almost 3 times as many consoles as the Dreamcast. Even the Gamecube sold over twice as many.
the only xbox exclusive was halo which was a very American focused series
Sad cope from a delusional Sega fan. Dreamcast was not a competitor for the Xbox, Gamecube and PS2.
I never said dreamcast was as good as PS2 and Gamecube. I'm just saying Xbox was completely irrelevant and nobody had one outside America.
>greatest era in human history
WRONG
fpbp
KYS.
Back to your containment board.
ugh...
umm no sweaty
Half of those consoles suck ass, though.
europoors absolutely seething itt
PS2 is still my favorite console
dreamcast was in the n64 ps1 generation
No, Sega Saturn was.
Dreamcast was it's own thing in between 5th and 6th.
