I try to stay as unbiased as possible. I do believe that -> the N64 will be the best system, but I have to give the Playstation -> it's due. It's a great system that has gained startling popularity. -> That surprises me cuz even the Saturn has better technical specs. -> However, the deciding factor of whether a system succeeds or fails -> is if it has quality games. The Playstation does, the N64 looks like -> it will, and the Saturn might as well just die. Hop the systems of -> the future will use DVD-ROM (or super CD) rumored to gigs of data -> (!!!!!!) instead of the CD. Then maybe sound quality actually reach -> "CD-quality" (an overused phrase) because today's s short. JN> -> -> Jeremy JN> JN> I don't know if I agree if the saturn is going to die. Man they got Nights, JN> this could be the next sonic. Also considering it was made by the same guy. JN> Panzer Dragoon Zwei, Bug Too! (gay name), Virtua Cop II. Etc. Basicaly the only way a new system like the Saturn were to die, if no one buys any of it's profits here, and Japan. The name " Sega Saturn " by itself, should state a pretty impressive piece of work, nothing they make turns out unpopular. Not only that, but if a product does pretty bad here, if could do excellent in Japan, or vice versa. Believe it or not, the Saturn has excellent games, just because a roomful of people may disagree, doesn't mean the system should be doubted altogether. Im my opioion (my opioion will hardly make any difference in the world) the Playstation started out strong, but now is lacking in the new game epartment. In fact it's turning out to be like the last of the SNES years, where it only depended on a certain game to make money where about 70% failed to; I.E. Killer Instinct, Donkey Kong Country 1&2, and Mario RPG. In fact the last game of quality was " Resident Evil," it made it's money like it was xspected too. Honestly the Playstation isn't going to fail, but in time it will. I predict that it will probley lose favor when the N64 comes out, or at least about 6 months later. You see, time repeats itself: First came Genesis, then came the SNES, they fought it out and both did well. Next came the 3DO, it came in right when the 16bit systems were losing steam. Time goes by, and then the Playstation, and Saturn came out. They knocked both the 3DO, and Jaguar out of play. Next should be the N64, it's role will be to come in and take everyone by storm. It should slowly rise, nd then knock the Playstation out of play, or at least the public's intrests. Then finally both these titans, Sega, and Nintendo, will battle once again until time repeats again. YOu see everyone has a opioion about certain things about everything, but until it happens we will have to waiit and see... --- GEcho+Intermail+OS/2 * Origin: SHOCK Therapy BBS, (407)731-4378, PPI 28.8k V.FC (1:3609/64) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 169 ARCADE Ref: DBY00150 Date: 07/27/96 From: RAIDEN PHUNBABA Time: 12:36pm \/To: JEFF NELSON (Read 2 times) Subj: MK Trilogy JN> -> Dost thou wish to die now or later?
