Yea I gotta agree with Rustywire here, nothing is beating the SNES as best console.

if you prefer SNES games then cool, but IMO playing SNES ports on other consoles is often no worse than playing SNES itself. good games, average console.

gamecube -> far better console, games which many would not call as good because they aren't shrouded in nostalgia and historical importance

I'm playing Fire Emblem: Birthright right now, and the game is awesome, but it really pissed me off last night...
So I'm playing Casual mode, meaning no permanent death, your characters come back after battle. I always do a casual run before a Classic run,where when a character dies, they're gone for good.
So in chapter 15, one of my main units dies after battle, in a cut scenes. Apparently, this is only avoidable if the unit, Kaze, has an A level support with your avatar. But the game gives no warning or hints that you need the relationship with him to prevent losing him.
Gah. So pissed. He was nearly S level (married) to Azura, and was the only ninja I had invested a serious amount of time in.

Hear hear!!
GC was okay. Overhyper post-mortem IMO. SM Sunshine, RE remake (ported), Super Monkey Ball, F-Zero GX, Pikmin 1&2, Melee, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess (both with better ports). That's about it. Dreamcast, now that's a good console to hype post-mortem.

When I was playing Mass Effect 2, I didn't think upgrading the ship mattered at all since there was never any playable ship battles. That did not end well.

Nuclear Throne. 30+ hours in and I'm still absolutely awful at this game, but it's so good.

Mankind Divided New Game+ is so much fun. Suppressed Pistols, Cloaking and Hacking is all I want in videogames. Also, being able to play through with a decent 50-60 fps on Very High beats whatever I was doing before.

Yeah I gotta get onto one of these Deus Ex games.
I've been meaning to check them out for ages.

It's the right balance between being campy as fuck while also having a pretty smart and deep storyline. It's just a less weird Metal Gear Solid, but on PC.
Also has the 'kind of shit, but brilliantly deadpan' sort of acting that I love.

Got the complete edition of Witcher 3 last night. Good thing I didn't have anything to do because I played that shit until 1 am.

The Witcher 3 was pretty tight. Just finished it a couple of weeks ago, lots of fun.

Forza Horizon is free on Xbox this month. Stoked to finally play it. Seems like the closest there'll ever be to another Need For Speed Underground.
