For me:

NES (for the family) -> Gameboy (Mine) -> *list of systems brother constantly bought and sold* -> N64 -> PS1

From that point I mostly just bought the systems when they came out or within two years. The entire SNES/Genesis period was me buying games for systems I didn't know I'd have because one day the Master System would be replaced with a SNES, then replaced with a Genesis, then replaced with a Jaguar or something. I've bought most of the older consoles I've had games for since then.

Building powerful PCs is a science. $:-\$

Never built any models of planes or anything? whne I was younger I used to build Gundam models as a hobby and it's pretty much the same thing as building a PC.

Only annoying part is the CPU. I need to upgrade my CPU but I'm too lazy to do that and will hold off until I build a new PC with a larger case. Also, all the wires are annoying. I hate managing wires in general, but when they're all packed into a small box, it's even worse.

C64 -> Amiga -> TG-16 -> Genesis + SNES -> 3DO (lulz) -> PS1 + Saturn ->

DREAMCAST

-> PS2 -> X360

from tg-16 to the end i have owned a gaming pc, which has usually been my primary gaming source

i've owned a wii, a ps3, a gamecube, an xbox, and an n64, but i don't really count them as viable consoles, just as options to fill the rare gaps in content on real platforms

Atari 7800 -> Amiga -> Gameboy -> Genesis/32X -> PC -> Dreamcast -> GBA -> PS2 -> Xbox -> SAT -> NES (my wife's childhood NES) Gamecube -> DS Lite -> PS3 -> PSP

Didn't have a lot of videogames growing up, my dad thought they were a waste. I managed to play all the good NES and SNES games at a friend's house, though. Once I got to college I went fucking crazy and bought a Dreamcast, PS2 and Xbox all on their respective launch days to make up for it. Now that I'm married and have other financial obligations, I'll probably only own one console per generation.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #429 on:** December 29, 2009, 01:15:35 PM »

i didn't have a lot of games, either, for the same reason -- my parents throught that kids/teens should spend all their time outside and playing sports. on the plus side, i learned to handle firearms and how to beat other kids with sticks!

nes (too hard for me at the time)
genesis (sonic and mortal kombat)
n64( I swear I played mario64 for like a year)
gameboy/gbc (pokemons)
playstation ( beginning and end of my relationship with final fantasy, tony hawk was guuuud)

3-4 year hiatus

gamecube (viewtiful joe prompted this, got back into some of the legacy n64 followups like smash melee)
gba ( I think I originally got this for metroid prime connectivity and sonic advance 2)
ps2 (katamari damacy, bunch of fighting games till I realised I was never going to like the genre)
dreamcast ( during that 3-4 hiatus there were alot of dreamcast games I always wanted to play. Hit up a used game store and got things like jet grind radio and crazy taxi)
ds (kirby canvas curse rocked the house)
psp (hot shots golf was actually too hard for me :'( I got a hardon playing burnout for the first time but got fed up with the load times. MegaMan 1 had fucking slowdown, alpha 3 was unplayable, and the loco roco demo sucked)
Wii (only thing I own now)

oh and this crummy laptop which can't run tf2.

Speaking of Tyler Perry I was listening to NPR the other day and some film critics were discussing the year end pictures and awards season etc. When they got to Precious they started talking about the backlash and the controversy and how the perception that the film was exploitative was hurting any chances it had at any big awards and how perception was in turn souring the box office and it wasn't doing as well as hoped. Interesting thing is when they were talking about the controversy the name mentioned more often than any other was Armond White. There was no mention of anything being wrong with White or the fact that he has bizarre views that are often seen as trollish. They talked about him as the Chairman of the New York Film Critics Circle and how he was a prominent African-American film critic and contrasted him against Ebert, the whitey. Found it really fascinating.

Just watching the trailer showed some odd racial things. Like her wanting a "light skinned boyfriend with good hair," then apparently falling in love with a light skinned nurse. Or how the teacher who makes her open up is light skinned, as is the social worker. I didn't think much about it after first seeing the trailer, then I heard about White's comments where he confirms it. All the negative characters in the film are dark, black people, while the positive characters are light skinned.

ok, i would like to come out swinging for Next Day Air, it's really, really, really good

all the promo shit makes it look like Friday Part Whatever, but it's actually a really well done crime film with some humorous elements. yes it has the guy from scrubs and yes, he's smoking a lot of weed, but there is so much more to this movie than just that.

seriously. it's really well done.
