3 was a good movie even though I had very little interest in the subject. ESPN does that kind of stuff really well.

Sorry guys, but I had to...

Whats the best Nascar movie then? Talladega Nights isnt even close. Very funny, but the story has nothing at all on Days of Thunder.

I believe it. I believe it in my heart...

1. Risky Business - Also my favorite movie 2. Days of Thunder 3. Top Gun

Theres nothing Nascar around here. Its just a super iconic movie that everyone loves.

My tastes are different alot of the time, and vary quite a bit. I basically have to try everything for myself to see if I will like it or not. Examples against RT: Low Down Dirty Shame and Wagons East are ok movies. Id give them each a 3-5/10. Days of Thunder gets a 38%. WTF! That is one of the most quoted, and most beloved movies for almost everyone! Metacritic is great for game reviews. I trust the sources that the reviews come from, so when a game scores somewhere around 92% and above, I automatically buy it so that I can experience it for myself at some point.

I always had a thing for Elizabeth Shue...

One of my all time favorites, and an amazing soundtrack! Shuuuuush!

As far as movies, I never pay attention to Rotten Tomatoes because I have seen many, many movies that they rate somewhere below like 40%, so their opinions are useless to me.

Im not too big into Sim games, but the 5th generation is where gaming meant more to me than any other generation because my PS1 got me thru the worst times of my life, and without it, I probably wouldnt be here. Obviously PC dominated this genre at this point in history, but we are debating consoles here. I remember trying Command and Conquer on the PS1 and just didnt understand or enjoy it, and that was the biggest chunk of my experience with the genre at the time. Looking back now, as a collector, a much more skilled player, and a wiser person in general, I would back the PS1 in this category due to the amount of sim games over the other consoles of the period, as far as I can think of off of the top of my head, and the controller was better suited for the gameplay of a sim, as they had more buttons typically, and were better laid out. Also, the graphical style of the genre, and its most popular games, would be displayed the best thru the PS1, as I think of how terrible a SimCity game would have looked on the N64, even though they did release one for the DD.

Lets limit this list to "Construction and Management Sims," and "Life Simulation," as reading through Wikipedia's definition of a sim game, I dont agree that racing games classify as simulations like SimCity. 5th Generation Consoles: 3DO Atari Jaguar incl. Jag CD Sony Playstation Sega Saturn Nintendo 64 Apple Pippin Sega 32X Definition of a Simulation Video Game: Simulation video games is a diverse super-category of games, generally designed to closely simulate aspects of a real or fictional reality. - Wikipedia

Tecmo Super Bowl. Any time I can squeeze in a game is good.

I was thinking of Dark Forces. I always mix up the two. My bad!

The 3DO. One of the few systems from my childhood that I havent re-bought in the last 12 or so years of collecting. I consider myself extremely lucky to have had one when I was younger, because somehow my mom bought one for the xmas of 1994 i believe, so by that time, it had to have tanked in price. I had Madden and Doom for it that xmas, and never got another game for it. I longed for Foes of Ali, Demolition Man, Gex, and Samurai Showdown, but still never ended up with any other games for it, and got rid of it around 2001. I honestly dont think that I ever saw a system or a game on store shelves in the 90's. I remember playing Doom and loving it, and playing Madden a bit, and being amazed by the graphics for a football game of that time. Id say within 6 months or so, I never touched it again. These days I have about 10 games, none of which I am excited to play, but I hunt for the 3DO and Jaguar on Ebay daily as they are kinda my white whale consoles, but the price is just too high on them.

Did you play more of the PC version or the PS1 version? My cousin had the PS1 version when it came out and it was mind blowing, but impossible to play these days.

On our way home from my daughters school, we were jammin to some Marc Anthony on Sirius XM.

Id like to see a combo of all of the Gran Turismo games in one game to bring back some of the cars from the first 4 games. The Sega Sports games from the Genesis era were amazing and I wish they were part of the Genesis Classics compilations that have come out, but they probably cant license the players and put them in the game.

Is it possible to schedule a post so that I can make sure that my new series of threads come out at a specific time weekly?

Welcome!

SMS has a small place in my heart because its my dads all time favorite system. He still plays Great Baseball all the time to this day, but I found it very late, and actually after its life cycle. I had never heard of the Master System before around 1995 when my friends dad, now my foster dad, had one hooked up in his bedroom. I was 10 at the time, and wanted to play it badly. My favorite games on the system were Rocky, Rambo, and Choplifter. I have never found much in the wild as far as collecting so it seems pretty scarce around here, and at this point I only have 19 NTSC games for it. I dont feel I have much reason to go back and play it these days, but I just downloaded the Wonderboy remake on PS4 since so many of you talked highly of it in this thread.

Ill have to give it a shot sometime...

Really?

Here is one of my ideas.

@Amermoeis an RPG beast! Lets talk about PS1 and SNES on another day tho bud.
