TrekMD | 1,498 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 (edited) This is an article on The Guardian that looks at 25 consoles from the past decades up until today. I thought it was an interesting read. The brief intro says: On the threshold of a new console generation with the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, here are the industry’s most influential and impactful machines over 50 years of gaming The 25 greatest video game consoles – ranked!

Tulpa | 3,677 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Interesting ranking when you see it from the British perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH | 5,194 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 The fact that half of those games rated above the Sega Saturn proves that they don't know what they are talking about. Real time, it was a bit TL;DR, so if they are basing it off of sales in the UK, then that's different. But if it's basing it off of any form of fandom, that's a big list of WTF?!

Pretty sure that's the case. Saturn was trounced even harder by the Playstation over there than it was here. Some other consoles did a bit better over there than here, and vice versa.

I thought the Sega Saturn, the Atari 2600 and the NES were too low, but these lists usually do stuff like that to get people to share them.

Californication | 1,491 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 (edited) Xbox 360 and Xbox one are to high, OG Xbox too low. It's very hard to find a reason to purchase an XBox One. Edited July 18, 2020 by Californication Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD | 1,498 Posted July 18, 2020 Author Share Posted July 18, 2020 Well, if nothing else, sharing these lists generates discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammerfestus | 4,097 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I feel like if you have the 3DO on your top system list then your top system list is too long. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
