The N64 controller. Yeah, it introduced us to the concept of analog control, but the style was way too goofy and the analog stick needed to be constructed differently (seems like half the time I tried to play an N64 game in stores, the stick was really loose and wouldn' t work - you know what I speak of).

The worst thing to come from the games industry?

Easy the Apple Pip-pin, yep, that Apple.

Back in the early 90' s Apple made their own console, it only sold 4,000 units and cost over $1000, but I think that was apart of it' s charm or crap.

All that comes to mind right now is my new PS2 HDD. I am no longer paying for FFXI(a fantastic game, though) so my HDD is doing nothing but making my PS2 heavy.

You can get the PS@ Loader and copy your games onto the HDD and that will shorten their load time. I have no idea where to get the Loader disc, though.

I' ve been reading up about the HDloader actually, and know where to find links for where to buy it. I just want to know that it works before I do. Has anyone used this with their ps2 HDD yet? If it works my ass is heading to blockbuster to get a gamer' s pass

SoulofXion: My Xbox has had numerous disc-read problems and even system crashes. A friend of mine finally gave up on the Xbox after his third system broke down on him within a month. I just had to replace my PS2, and it was a launch system. It lasted a good 2.5 years, and it could' ve lasted longer, if I had kept better care of it. I can' t see my Xbox lasting that long.

Heheh my release date X-box is still going strong, despite the bumps,falls,and camping adventures. However, loadtimes with some games is a bit longer then with my g/fs x-box.

As for the PS2' s, all my friend' s can no longer play DVD' s on them. Thats the biggest problem I' ve heard is the DVD drive.

My GameCube died after I left Viewtiful Joe on pause for 3 days, LOL..

I think my PS2 took more abuse than any of your consoles will EVER see in their lifetime and it survived a good long while!

My import Dreamcast controller port blew out supposedly after using a third-party control pad (Astro Pad). It was dirt cheap to fix.

The Xbox is WAYYYYYYY too big and heavy to pick up or drop.
