Quote:Yes, absolutely. You just can't compare PSX-N64 to GBA-PSP. Its insane... the situation in each case is so dramatically different that it makes no logical sense whatsover, yet you seem to be doing that, OB1...
The similarities are so striking that I can't believe that you don't see them.
1. Nintendo was king of the market before the PlayStation started to become successful. Now they are way, way behind in third place. Right now Nintendo is king of the handheld gaming market, but they have no competition.
2. When it was starting to look like the PSX could become more popular than Nintendo's system, every fanboy in the world scoffed at that. Then Sony dominated the entire industry. Right now Sony is planning on releasing a powerful handheld to compete with the Gameboy, and every fanboy in the world is scoffing at it.
3. Third-parties flocked to the PSX because Sony offered cheaper software costs and cheaper licensing fees than Nintendo. Right now Nintendo charges third-parties a lot of money for making GBA games, and it's a safe bet that Sony will be the cheaper alternative.
Quote:Okay... yeah, I was assuming too much about what you remembered. And as I said, I left that arguement because I just wasn't sure enough about the facts to really continue...

Quote:But I did mention it eventually, and aftterwards you kept on acting like I hadn't said it (until much later that day I said so in chat too)... so it DOES say something about you reading my posts.
No, I kept on bringing up the fact that you failed to mention the that you barely played BK.
Quote:You have played them more but I have played them far more than enough to comment intelligently on the ones I have played. Its really annoying that you won't admit that.
Oh, and Croc is extremely, extremely simplistic platform jumping, sure, but I found it fun... simple, platform-hopping fun.
You've played them, but you haven't played them enough to notice the major differences between them, it seems.
