Gaming What do you consider to be the best generation of consoles?

>inb4 some smart-ass says PC

I’d pick the sixth generation for having a massive library with some of the greatest games ever made. And it was before the fps trend got kicked into full gear so we had plenty of variety.

Fourth generation is a close second for the SNES alone.

I barely play games, but I'd say the seventh generation. I liked the Xbox 360 and the Wii.
I remember playing Super Mario World on the SNES in third grade, that was fun.

For me, I’d argue the sixth generation stands out as the strongest overall. It was when developers had enough power to create expansive and polished games, but without the bloat or over-reliance on monetization we see today. The PS2 alone had a library so massive and diverse that it feels impossible to exhaust.

I do, however, have a soft spot for the seventh generation for taking a big leap forward in online multiplayer.

I hate this gaming breakthrough, what multiplayer games have done to the gaming industry and gaming as a whole has been terrible. I fear we may never recover from it's consequences.

This. Albeit I did enjoy when you could trash talk players without getting banned. I made a lot of friends that way.

3rd because that's the first one I remember. I don't care if the ps3 was overpriced it was the best one because it just was!

Yeah, I feel like back then nobody gave a shit about what you said lobbies or what not. At least not in "We have to ban these users because they are ruining my gaming experience!" type of way.
Now you have twitch fags bitching about "oh, someone told me they were going to rape me!" like nigga who cares bro, just take off your headphones and they don't exist anymore.

Everything from the sixth generation and on I own or did own, except Xbox. Because who seriously uses that excuse for a plate warmer?

7th gen. Halo 3, Gears of War, and Forza Motorsport, all solid titles. PS3 was a desert in comparison.
