Sometimes you guys assume to quickly and judge. I really have no idea where you got the idea that this was ever a Sony praise thread.

Perfect Stu got the idea and raised discussion, as was the point of this thread. I saw other forums saying the Xbox would do better since it released first.

I was clearly saying how PSX and PS2 won the last 2 generations but definitely werent the first to be released. So I wanted to discuss what you guys felt was the speculated market trend of the next-generation.

Sometimes there is TOO MANY ill-directed threads to see through this and actually discuss whats at hand. People keep jumping to conclusions.... I wanted to discuss market trends of release dates for consoles............and if you cannot discuss it, don't reply here undermining my thread, calling it a fanboy post.

Actually, I raised a genuine argument stating that you could consider the PS2 to be the first console released this generation. You cannot automatically put the Dreamcast based on bits because after the PSX and the 64, bits has very little to do with processing power and performance. I think you could very easily qualify the Dreamcast as the last of the previous generation.

nope, because Saturn woulda been segas previous generation console. they had one for every generation at that point, so one cant really consider there to be 2 generation of consoles in one 'generation'. erm or something like that. lol Dreamcast is def. considered to be this generation of consoles. And whos baseing it off bits anyway? i ASSUME dreamcast was 32 bit processor, not sure but thats what i'd think, xbox has a 32 bit processor, i know that for sure.

thats processing power.... but dreamcast had 128-bit graphics engine...

IN any case, I wasn't talking about you Blackmane..... if you incited a meaningful discussion then don't take what I said into account........ the people who replied saying "Just another fanboy thread." is who I'm talking to....

You often do have plausible discussions Blackmane...
