PS2 - It wasn't the first system that I ever bought with my own money (That was the N64), but it was the first console I was able to actually buy games for as I pleased. It had more refined 3D graphics than the PS1 and N64, which unlike the PS1 and N64, have held up really great today. The PS2 was the main system of choice for me for that generation and it's easily noticeable in my collection, the GameCube and the Xbox are at 19 games, where the PS2 towers above them with 116. The PS2's Dual Shock 2 was a vast improvement over the PS1's controller too. I feel the DS2 is also much better built controller than even the Dual Shock 3, which feels cheap and lightly made. Where the Xbox's controller seemed huge and unwieldy and the GameCube's button layout seemed strange. I can honestly say that during the PS2 era I was solidly in the PS2 fanboy camp, but, thanks to my friends buying 360s and needing one for multiplayer that all changed the following generation. Still the PS2 is my favorite console ever and still gets regular play in the game room. Sadly I don't have time to put in 20 exclusives. But I'll edit this later. |

Just more colors to choose from. |

Im going to have to go with the PS4. I had some play time with my PS3 when Ni no Kuni and Diablo III came out but nothing has brought me back into gamer mode the way my PS4 has. Ive already finished Mordor, about 65 hours into Inquisition and feeling the anticipation for Bloodborne, MKX, Shiness (a game I kickstarter backed and is supposed to release this year) and some other titles. Plus with ESO and Everquest Next going to be on the 4, there is nothing that is going to stop this landslide for me. I know that the Playstation controller has been mentioned already but I actually enjoy the feel of the DS4 the most also. Btw, not enough exclusives ... yet! |

Which is the reason I still gravitate toward D-Pad controls on driving games to this day. |
