How you gonna make me choose between these two titans in the first round?

[E.H. Ruddock]

I vote trag

[Ello Sailor]

Ruddo has Pokemon, Kirby.

Trag has FINAL FANTASY, Tetris, Portal and Tony Hawk's.

Trag.

[E.H. Ruddock]

This is because of what i said about you and Star Fox isn’t it?

[Ello Sailor]

The fantasy... it's final, Ruddo. You cannot fuck with that.

[Ello Sailor]

Also yeah fuck you.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Also yeah fuck you.

Mario is my favourite Nintendo franchise - another one I have memories of multiple iterations and can get nostalgic for different times of my life.

I played a lot of CoD with mates at university, and prefer it to Halo, but it was more a means to an end than a great experience.

The Guitar Hero guitar is the best peripheral draft, easily.

The rest of the list is a bit Nintendo-heavy, and features games I haven't really got any active experience with.

Oh man, I sunk HOURS in the SNES Final Fantasy games (and Chrono Trigger). FFVI is a stupendous experience.

The NES never came to South Africa, but we did have knock-offs called "Golden China", and boy howdy, it was the best for little ABNorman and his brother. This is my favourite console pick.

I enjoyed the first TLoU, but I feel like it hasn't quite proven itself as a franchise just yet.

Tetris is a solid, if slightly dull pick.

Madden = sports = bleh.

The Portal games are unimpeachable. Tony Hawk was basically all I played on my brother's PlayStation, and I miss the hell out of Guitar Hero.

My wife is a lecturer in human-computer interaction, so the Adaptive Controller got big props in this household.

Never heard of the Super Scope.

Pretty easy vote for TRAG

Just asking.

[Anders]

Think the regular xbox controllers are the best out there.

[tree_]

You must not have tried the PS five Controller

[Anders]

Five? No. Four was much worse.
