Really number one is the only innovation. Net Yaroze was just a development kit that was released to the public. DVD games had already been released before Playstation2 and it is just an incremental jump from CD for more storage on a media disc. Blu-Ray is just more storage capacity - not really an innovation either. VR is a technology that has been used before Sony looked in to it for their system. The rest of the is just accomplishments not really innovation for the industry. Innovations in my mind are things that changed how we played videogames: 1. Nintendo = D-Pad 2. Microsoft = achievements 3. Sega = Haptic Feedback 4. GameLine = online gaming although in a primitive format 5. Sony = dual analogue controller 6. Nyko Hip Clip for the Game Boy = helped us to know which gamers to avoid if they wore one of these. --- Quote from: gf78 on January 25, 2016, 02:02:22 pm ---1. First console to use dual-analog controls. 2. First console with an end-user programmable system & tools (Net Yaroze) 3. First console to utilize the storage capacity of DVD. 4. First console to utilize the storage capacity of Blu-Ray discs. 5. First home console to utilize VR (coming this year!) 6. Ushered in the era of 3D polygon graphics (Saturn sucked and was built around 2D sprites) 7. Moved gaming from being considered "a kid's toy" to being an acceptable pastime for adults. 8. First console to sell over 100 million units. 9. PS2 is best selling console of all time with over 150 million units sold. 10. Exclusive home to some of the most important games in history (Final Fantasy VII, Castlevania Symphony of the Night, Metal Gear Solid) 11. Knocked Nintendo down a peg or two, relegating them to second place. 12. Damaged Sega so badly, they went software-only. Honestly, you can say that all game makers copied and iterated on what other did before them. It's the nature of the beast. --- End quote --- |

IMO, Genny model one kind of looks like a waffle maker, CD model two kind of looks like a trash can, and 32x is a deformed mushroom or cyclops. But Genny model two by itself, looks cooler than SNES model 1 or 2. |

Those pants can do what Jeansdon't. Makes me think there could be more Sega add ons hiding in them. P.S. I'm not sure this thread feels safe anymore for me. |
