What do you think was the most competitive Generation of gaming?

non-online 4th gen ( early-mid 90s), online is probably going to be this generation

In addition, 80s-90s arcade stuff has always been very competitive if you look up score histories, but unfortunately Twin Galaxies only capitalized on the early 80s ones (and are now a huge joke of a website) , so most of the more interesting competition was left for Japanese scoreplayers. There a lot of wr strats for games of that period that are still completely unknown to the west and left up to the user to find for themselves.

Probably last generation, the 7th. Though the current 8th is surpassing that I feel.

Thank you tripredacus, if you guys haven't you need to watch A Fistfull of Kong and The Video Game Years.  Don't forget that video games were, I think, bigger before the crash of the early 80s.  I would also add that if you've never had to lug one hundred pounds of PC equipment over to a friends house for a Quake LAN party with grappling hook mods then....then...go buy a hundred pound PC.  And watch beastmaster too.  Just cause.
