I don't think you needed all those extra > there but I do agree with your ranking.

Anyone who says the Dreamcast is even comparable to the other 3 is just being a huge contrarian for the sake of being a contrarian. The DC can't even hold up against the N64 and in all honesty can barely hold up against it's predecessor, the Saturn.
If you like it it's because you had one when you were a kid. It's not a good console.

>>719962645
The fact that anything worth playing on DreamCast either got ported to other consoles or received better sequels on Xbox proves the console itself is not necessary or worth checking out

I like all of them, but recently I've come to love the Xbox the most. It has good console exclusives besides Halo, and nearly every PS2 multiplat runs better on it as well.

So you can pick it up and take to the other room or over a friend's house for a sleepover.

It's a neat concept, but in practice you'd just put it in a backpack or something, because you'd still have to carry the cords, controllers and games so what's the point?

Exactly my point. The N64 had shit online games. Compare the list of online N64 titles in the year 2000 to the Dreamcast's online titles in the year 2000. One clearly had the better online games.

Randnet had internet access for uploading content for a whopping two games (Mario Artist and some golf game) but not online multiplayer. The only N64 game that offered that is this japanese-only, barebones as fuck mahjong game that literally nobody on /vr/ seems to know about because nobody cares about it. You're a fucking idiot who can't actually give a correct answer and that other guy remains a filthy fucking AI botposter.

>>719966090
>Retard gets his information from wikipedia
If you read my previous post you'd know that it didn't have online multiplayer, the most you could do is upload your score for timed events on the internet.

>>719965041
The Snes had more and better online titles than the N64. Xband and Satellaview were way better. Hell, Xband wasn't even directly involved with Nintendo for most of its online programming. I think Weaponlord was the only one with Nintendo involvement.

As much as I hate to say it, the GC actually wins this. It's surprising, but the PS2 was hard carried by backwards compatibility with the PS1, but it's actually embarrassingly lacking in standout solid games, with Tekken 5, Dragon Quest VIII being the actual best examples of their respective genres on the system (which are actually good themselves, but few are far between and also not especially unique).

The GC has Melee, F-Zero GX, Wind Waker (a decidedly weaker Zelda to be sure, but still actually surprisingly more meritful than Okami, SotC, Dark Cloud etc.) Mario Sunshine (Jak and Rachet barely try to be platformers), the best version of Resident Evil 4 etc. It feels like it should hardly be better than the others, but it more or less achieves victory by technical knock out given how hard the others falter.

The best games of that gen were often multiplats like Timsplitters 2 and Beyond Good and Evil, so the GC's peaks just push it ahead enough that it wins by default.

>>719967284
Wait why are we even arguing this. This just makes the N64 online titles look worse. If you go all the way back I said "online games". I never said real time online multiplayer, though in the year 2000 Dreamcast already had more than a handful of real time online multiplayer games. Though the N64 golf game still somewhat counts as you do "compete against other players" in "tournaments" for the highest score in an "online setting" with scores actively updated in "real time"

I will commend the Xbox for being a really advanced console in terms of hardware and specs, and it's functiona were really impressive. But bottom of the line is: outside of Halo, Gunvalkyrie, Lynx and Ninja Gaiden Black, it really has no games.
The gamecube isn't THAT much better, but it has a bit more.
Pisscast a shit

dc is the most over hyped piece of shit. at least xbox had superior ports.

>>719969928
With the right screen graphics were miles better than the rest

>>719969503
Honestly it actually is. It's a seriously great FPS that pretty much took interesting parts of Jet Force Gemini, Half-Life and Perfect Dark and polished them up into something really cool while having levels with the scope of an RTS. I actually find it bizarre it's as popular to hate on and dismiss as it is. The kind of person who shits on it is typically the "Quake fan who doesn't play Quake" type.

>>719962203
This. But I still prefer the dreamcast overall.

The Gamecube was probably my first arcade game emulator powerhouse and it isn't even hacked. The Namco and Midway collections alone make it worth the price. Then the Zelda collection is another reason, then there's the superb Star Wars games on it with one that includes all three original arcade games.
Yeah, the Gamecube is more than good for that alone.

>>719975642
don't bother, this guy must have never played those console (Xbox/DC), most people that put those 2 consoles at the bottom of their list never owned those.
I did owned all the consoles of that era (including the handled), and clearly, Xbox/DC were the only consoles pushing the industry forward, both in term of creativity, technology, art, gameplay and feature.

The Dreamcast wasn't afraid of experimenting a lot with various style of games and feature and the Xbox was "finalizing/polishing" what the Dreamcast started.

On the other side you did have the PS2 that was just pumping out sequels after sequels, with some good original game from time to time, yes, but all of them was for the most part "realistic" grounded, and far far far less original and risky than what the DC/Xbox were doing. The simple comparison of Halo vs Killzone, Xbox Live vs PSN is enough to make you understand who was really trying to push things forward here.

>>719976428
back in the day i only used my xbox for playing music CD's. it barely had interesting games

1. XBOX
2. PS2
3. NGC
4. DC

But all four are great to be honest. What a time to be alive. Back when videogames were fun.

>>719976598
You didn't owned this console.
You can't say that it didn't interesting games when you have games like PGR, Blinx, Phantom Crash, DOA3&X, JSRF, Mechassault, Midtown Madness 3, MotoGP (the best ones), Ninja Gaiden, Unreal Championshi, Halo, Rainbow Six (the best ones), Ghost Recon (the best ones), Otogi, Steel Battalion etc...

In top of that, almost all the games were better on the Xbox (even sometimes better than the PC version) with also a way better and more robust online system (with more people to play with too).

>>719962203
Why is there always some anon in these threads that feels the need to fervently shit on the gamecube? Is it the weakest console of the gen, kinda, but not enough for me to console war over it 20+ years later.

Hardware wise
Xbox > PS2 > Gamecube > Dreamcast

Dreamcast is only last because it was so early (1998). Gamecube is actually not that great when you learn about its bottlenecks and the fact third party ports were actually pretty bad on it. The PS2 had weaknesses as well but its advantages like the insane fill rate for effects gave it an advantage, and third parties often made the system their priority.

Library
PS2 > Xbox > Dreamcast > Gamecube

PS2 wins hands down for variety alone. The "le shovelware machine" is a cope often spouted by tendies who can't understand economics, i.e. the most popular system will have third rate devs cashing in on it for a quick buck. If you were past the first grade and could read game sites and magazines, you knew what games to buy and what third party shovelware to avoid.

>>719969503
It was actually pretty okay minus the later half of the game. I think Timesplitters 2 was a little bit better but if CE had other singleplayer modes outside of campaign and bot matches it easily would've replaced Timesplitters and Quake for me. It was the only Halo to have a rock-paper-scissors dynamic with its weapons that later got shelved when it went full babby mode.

>>719977312
>The PS2 had weaknesses as well but its advantages like the insane fill rate for effects gave it an advantage
He said that while forgetting how great the DC hardware was in some aspect (like the OIT transparency, which caused many issues with later ports because of this lack of hardware feature on other consoles). It was a console ahead of its time, that was still capable of keeping up with the PS2 (as seen with the latest games on it, like PSO, MSR, Shenmue 2 etc...)

>PS2 wins hands down for variety alone
No, maybe by "quantity" yes, but not variety, that would be for DC, hell, even Xbox in some way, since at least there, online games and FPS were triumphant and totally nonexistent on PS2.

>>719976428
>all of them was for the most part "realistic" grounded, and far far far less original and risky
No, that's not correct at all. The only ones playing it safe that generation were Nintendo.

>>719977528
All Timesplitters games are excellent but they don't bring anything new to the table. Halo was pioneering vehicle integration better than anyone before it, and the enemy AI system was unparalleled for the entire generation combined with the variety of enemy types. The average Halo encounter is more elaborate and complex than any engagement in the Time Splitters games.

>>719962137 (OP)
PS2 > GCN > Dreamcast >= Xbox

It hurts my autism to rank these. All great consoles

>>719977312
Ehh I'd put the dreamcast above the xbox when it comes to library but honestly they're pretty close. Dreamcast games feel really comfy, like playing vidya on a Saturday morning as a kid.

>>719977868
>The only ones playing it safe that generation were Nintendo
Not at all, even though I like to shit on tendies all day, the GC was still trying things up (like Wind Waker using the cell shading, that caused a lot of drama back then) at the beginning.
Remember that the PS2 was selling like hot cakes only because of: DVD + FF + GT + MGS + Tekken etc.... it was mostly "you liked those games on the PSX? welll, buy the PS2 to play the next installment".
What happened after (aka, new games and more creative/original IP) was after the console was dominating the charts and many studio trying to create something new to overcome the saturation of copy-cat clone for each genre. But even so, most of those games weren't as creative than what the DC/Xbox combo were doing.

Good luck finding stuff like Bloodwake, Whacked, Blinx and more on the PS2...

>>719977827
The Dreamcast was cutting edge for 1998, but anon, really, by midway through the gen, the other three systems had games that would've struggled on DC. If Sega didn't bow out of the race in 2001, they would've likely been scrambling to give the DC a mid generation upgrade by like 2003 or 2004.
>but not variety
Anon yes it did have most diverse library. Of course that didn't mean that it excelled at all of them, like FPS games you mentioned. Xbox definitely did better on that front.
>FPS were triumphant and totally nonexistent on PS2.
Anon, that is bullshit and you know it. Its FPS games were just not as good (Killzone was ambitious but ultimately ran like ass)
>>719978270
>the GC was still trying things up (like Wind Waker using the cell shading
Sega already beat them to the punch on that with Jet Set Radio. By the time Wind Waker came out, cel shading wasn't really that groundbreaking, it just used the style really well.

everyone knows this is due to amount of games and amount of good games. the only thing that matters. The gamecube I think is easily the most divisive console to ever exist. Its extremely polarizing

>>719975642
I simply don't see it. If you consider multiplats and how xbox usually had the best version, sure but I value exclusives more and in this case GC wins for me.

>>719976428
You don't know what the fuck you're talking about, ps2 pumped out experimental games like a factory machine. I had a ps2/DC btw and borrowed my neighbor's xbox at the time, I didnt play a gamecube game outside of Melee until 2008

>>719977868
Oh for sure, Halo was popular for a good reason. I just couldn't find anything else to do with it after I finished the campaign. I was the only one that had an xbox so system link wasn't an option and most of my friends didn't find CE fun to play. TS2 and 3 were games I spent a bit more time playing because I liked the single-player features they added (Arcade League, hundreds of unlockable characters, tons of weapon variety). Timesplitters 3 had vehicles but I'll agree it was no-where near as good as Halo CE and especially 2.

The only one I don't have is a ps2 but I think anyone is missing out if you're not on board with the other three. I'm probably missing out big time on ps2. There are just so many fucking video games to play in this world and so little time

Of course, I'm not saying otherwise. What I point out was that console was doing way better than what it was supposed to do, the hardware was really good in regard to the time it was released and it was super easy to work with (compared to the PS2). Overall, hardware wise, the DC was a fabulous machine as much as the Xbox was at the time of their release, the PS2 on the other hand was already behind technologically compared to its competitor.
>Of course that didn't mean that it excelled at all of them, like FPS games you mentioned. Xbox definitely did better on that front
I don't think you do understand how much the online experience was back then, this is truly what I call "variety". You can have X millions of super creative solo only games, yes, but the variety of a capture the flag in an Unreal Championship match or a coop mission of Rainbow Six 3 or a lobby on Phantasy Star Online or an entire afternoon of Cat and Mouse games on Project Gotham Racing 2 or an online session of Steel Battalion are just unmatched.
>By the time Wind Waker came out, cel shading wasn't really that groundbreaking, it just used the style really well
I'm not talking about the technology, I'm talking about putting that technology for a franchise like Zelda. You can't say that it wasn't risky or creative when you see how big the backlash was from the fan when it was released.

>you liked those games on the PSX? welll, buy the PS2 to play the next installment
Yeah games like GTA3 playing it safe creating entire new genres, Katamari Damacy possibly the most unique game of the generation, Devil May Cry also creating an entirely new genre. MGS famously played it safe with the first PS2 installment by ripping you out of the series' protagonist to famously zero back lash. SCE internally funding games like Densen which ended up influencing tons of people, everything with Fumito Ueda. SCE securing rights to games like Stretch Panic and making comedy RPGs like Okage, following up sequels with games like Vib-Ripple and encouraging all kinds of unique games like the 4-players with 2 controllers split screen platformer Cookie & Cream and rolling the carpet out for peripheral games like Taiko and the dozens of light gun games.

SCE clearly played it extremely safe with all of this.

Then don't start your paragraph with "You don't know what the fuck you're talking about".
I owned those consoles, I played them, didn't borrowed them or watching a friend play them, I OWNED THEM.

And I will say again, DC/Xbox were way more creative, but again, you don't know those games because you didn't owned those consoles. NUDE? you don't know what it is. SEAMAN? you don't know what it is.THOUSAND LAND? you don't know what it is.

>trying to pass the gc off as some quirky experimental system
I never said nor did that, and it's not me that will defend the nintendo eco system lol.
Accepting that the PS2 was selling because of already established IP doesn't mean that I think the GC is "creative". In fact, I put the GC far below all those other consoles at the time (including the GBA lol).
What I was saying is that, at the BEGINNING, the GC was indeed trying to be more creative than the PS2 and XBOX, which in the end, turned out to be just super lazy and safe when the sales weren't doing great at all.

>>719979376

Wrong opinion vro

The Dreamcast and Xbox were selling their consoles mostly with new IP/new genre type of games, they weren't doing "creative" stuff on the backyard while the frontyard was full of FF, MGS, GT and more. It was risky for them, Halo, Blinx, Otogi, Mechassault, Toy Commander, Soul Calibur, Shenmue etc.... were all "BIG" tittles, not just some "weird shit" we can do because we sell shit tons of games with FFX, MGS2 and GT3.

>>719962137 (OP)
the PS2 can also play all the best PS1 games, isn't not even a contest, the rest are sort of irrelevant, sure you can play Crazy Taxi on the Dreamcast and Halo on the Xbox and Animal Crossing on the Gamecube, if that matters, it's up to you but the answer is going to be the PS2.

He doesn't understand what "BIG" with quotes mean. Microsoft was heavily invested in the marketing of this game in Japan (trying to seduce the japanese market), so much that the game was sold with fucking Britney Spears CD lol.
Again, those where "BIG" titles, aka, games that was considered as main titles for the consoles and not some random shovelware.

And that's just ONE GAME.

The Dreamcast seems more like a 5.5 gen console kind of how the Saturn was a 4.5 gen console.


There's a reason why the Xbox is considered to be a successor to the Dreamcast. I wouldn't be surprised if Sega returns and replaces Xbox.

>>719968670
>uhhhh I didn’t fuck up because… uhhhh SEMANTICS! Yeah that’s right!
By that retard goalpost shifting logic, an EVSE is an online game.

>>719982081
>kind of how the Saturn was a 4.5 gen console.
Saturn was strictly a gen 5 console, it came out the same year as PS1. Sega retooled it specifically to compete with PS1.

3DO and Jaguar were gen 4.5 consoles.

>>719982081
>The Dreamcast seems more like a 5.5 gen console kind
fuck no.
Performance wise, it was really a new gen console, only hold back by the lack of new physical disc format, that's it. While yes, it was inferior to console released later (no shit), it was truly a new gen console (128 bits yo! kek), online connectivity, tamagotchi style of same memory unit etc... it was really a "modern" console that was still capable of keeping up with modern console (but not for too long, yes).

People seems to forget how much the PS2 hardware and the GC mini-disc did hold back that console era back then. There is a reason why exclusive tittle on the Xbox was far far far more incredible in term of visual/technology and sometimes gameplay too.

Xbox was superior to all of them, and it was the most technically impressive

PS2 is for poverty stricken brown people, no surprise it's popular on this board in 2025.

Pic extremely unrelated since Dino Crisis 3 looks and plays like absolute garbage.

Walmart doesn't even do business in your shithole, think about that for a minute.

>>719984186
That was later years when it was tanking, near release it was more expensive

>>719984234
Walmart exclusively does business in shitholes

>>719984252
It was always the cheap poorfag choice

It's from 2007 to be exact, the silver Gamecube was originally a limited edition from 2002, but was brought back after the Wii at a steep discount.

Not really, jsr is a decent little platform game.

>>719983957
not at all.
first it look incredible visually, if not one of the most impressive games of the platform.
secondly the gameplay is good, what shit the bed though is the camera placement, yes.
It's still a powerhouse of a game in term of graphics.
>>719984537
>decent little platform game
kek, nice troll

>>719984252
how much did the brownprovertycube cost at launch again

>>719984952
Dino Crisis 3 is one of the worst looking and playing games ever made. You would have to try in order to make a more boring looking environment and making a worse camera is just impossible even with effort.

>>719985049
keep baiting.
Even more funny knowing that this artstyle was also used for PN03

>>719985431
PN03 is a masterpiece compared to DC3.

>>719985021
200 american dollarydoos. adjusted for inflation that's about 400 smackers today.

>>719984952
It's alright but within a year PS2 had several better platform games like Klonoa 2 and Maximo. JSR is fun to go for good times in optimizing for speed but it's just alright.

I'm thinking browns with sour grapes, they didn't sell it in many countries I think

Playstation > Xbox > Gamecube > Dream

Playstation 2 for us we had:
>Airblade
>Ratchet and Clank
>Devil May Cry
>Gitaroo Man
>Final Fantasy X
>God of War
>Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
>Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance
>NHL Hitz 2003
>The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

Xbox we owned:
>Halo: Combat Evolved
>Fusion Frenzy (Party game)
>Kung Fu Chaos
>Unreal Tournament 3
Others but i honestly don't remember, 360 had more memorable stuff like Dead Rising/Gears of War

Only some of our childhood buddies owned Nintendo, it was practically worthless aside from Smash Bros. Nobody owned a Dreamcast.
These were all mogged once we got Warcraft 3 & the internet, endless nights taking turn on the computer for X: Hero siege, Run kitty run, Green TD, Pyramid Escape etc.
I'm just peeved we spent years amassing these games as Christmas / Birthday gifts only to trade them in for like $30 store credit with Electronic Boutique

>>719965665
Reminder the DD was supposed to be the N64's Famicom Disk System or BS Satellaview.

>>719987121

kek you didn't own shit

The best experience I had with Xbox was through the Xbox Magazine Demo Discs, full of soul and care with cheat codes in the menu for secret demos and concept art

Personally I was slighted by gamecube fanboys around 2012. I warned them if they're wrong about the games they recommended to me I'd shit up their threads until I die. I'm only making good on a promise agreed upon. Being more humble about your games is the most courageous thing, but being stubborn and hating everyone else even when they're better shows a lack of potential and ability to grow. So I'm forced to save them from their terminal shit taste and present their inferiority for all to see.

I didn't sign the binding pact, I'm simply delivering on my promise. They simply could have been honest at the time.

>>719968890
GC intro is the perfect intro

>>719987406
I feel the same about n64, all the games they hyped were so mediocre

>>719987368
I think the wojak in your pic would love the faggy purple lunchbox and that papper mario game with the tranny ghost

>>719987475
Another platform made the target of a binding pact. It didn't have to be this way. They chose their fate. If I wasn't lied to and attempted to be manipulated they wouldn't have such a miserable reputation.

>>719962137 (OP)
They all have their own merits
I can tell you I easily think they're the best each company has offered

TRVKE. it's hilarious how cubies have to cope with "b-but brown ppl b-but poorfags" when that applies to their dogshit console more than any other since it flopped world wide
>cubie zoomers hype up shitshine for years pretending its not actually le bad and only 64boomers hate it because muh nostalgia
>nintendo releases a compilation of old mario games for its anniversary
>everyone starts with shitshine because they never played it probably due to how unlikable the gc and its low quality games are
>everyone is immediately faced with cringe voice acting, cringe cutscenes, poor controls, no long jump, irrelevant fludd upgrades, 30fps in a platformer, boring beach environments copy and pasted, shit minigames, blue coins, pachinko, etc
>nintendo has to pull the digital version from the storefront due to the backlash from sunshine's terribleness
many such cases. it's funny every other nintendo console's legacy software has been available a la carte through virtual console, but cubie games are only allowed through a subscription service so you can't refund them after you realized how not good they are lol

N64 was a downwgrade from SNES. GC was an unpgrade from N64.

>>719962471
I would put XBOX last, but yeah, ican see that ranking as optimum.

>>719988706
How brown do you have to be to think the PS2 had the best graphics or sound? Genuinely delusional.

>>719988706

Sega saturn is interesting because it did almost all the things that were "first" on dreamcast before the dreamcast was even released.

They're all winners and without a doubt the best generation, but the insane library of the PS2 + DVD player functionality made it the best choice of the time.

I enjoyed some games on the ps2 and I enjoyed some games on the gamecube. Everytime, every sngle time, I checked recommended games to emulate on xbox or dreamcast the result is the same. I start reading a list, reach the end of the list and the response is always: "wait, that's it?".

>>719962137 (OP)
Graphics of DreamCast + GameCube with the online of the Xbox, on the PS2 system would have been the greatest console ever.

>>719998125
What do you mean "that's it?" PGR2 alone (bonus if played online, which is possible with insignia) totally kill GT3/4.

Otogi clear any beatem all on the PS2, Rallisport Challenge 2 is the best rally game on that era etc...

GameCube was genuinely garbage. I remember playing one of those X-Men games on a cousins PS2 then late playing the same game on a friend's GameCube, it looked like absolute ass. Joke console.

never owned any console so i'll rank them based on how cool they look
1- xbox
2- gamecube
3- dreamcast (the name sound even cooler)
4- ps2

cant really go wrong with any though

>>719962893
Despite being discontinued early, the Dreamcast recieved more games than both the gamecube and n64

>>719962203
Replace Xbox with Dreamcast
