I am so glad that there was no internet forums back when I was interested in arguing about video game consoles and superiority so that no one can go back and read my SNES is the best posts and then not offer me the job.

There were, it was called Usenet, and someone went through Google's archives of it and basically found 80's/90's YCS.

Nintendo vs. SEGA genesis (12/3/1989) posted:

On the subject of choosing a video game.....my five cents....

Personally, I think the Nintendo is a piece of right wing garbage akin to the
IBM PC. Slow, out of date, but heavily marketed so that mindless dweenies will
think it's the hottest thing since Zelda had her first period. I have yet TO
SEE A SINGLE GAME ON THE THING SUBSTANTIALLY BETTER THAN STUFF I PLAYED ON MY
OLD ATARI 800 SEVEN YEARS AGO.....Yes, there are some nice games, but they do
not do anything extraordinary and in fact clearly show the glaring limitations
of the thing's inferior pre-VLSI hardware.

On the subject of the Sega Genesis and the Turbografix 16. At least these guys
are using hardware invented after the Apple II, give 'em credit! The graphics
in these games are NICE! I really can't give a decent opinion as to which is
better, they're both fantastic!

But now I get to stand on my soapbox and have some fun. Correct me if I am
wrong, but isn't the Atari 7800 superior hardware wise to the NES? I heard
thing could manipulate 64 BIG sprites at once. It was developed right when
the slump hit the videogame industry, and two fantastic and innovative games
Rescue at fractalus and Ballblazer NEVER got the recognition they deserved.
I have yet to see ANYTHING on the NES half as good as these wondrous
creations from Lucasfilm. All I ever see are variations on the horizontal/
vertical scrolling find the magic trinket and or blow it up while a host of
randomly drawn stick figures get in your way theme. I'd rather pay 25 cents
in an arcade and at least get decent graphics and sound.

A frustrating lack of GIF's, though. Not sure why.

I forget which 'boner it was but the first time one of them in here got all up in arms telling me to get out because it's the general discussion thread, it was so out of the blue that I felt bad for a whole minute or so because I thought I had accidentally wandered into an actual Xbone discussion thread and was actin a fool.

After the minute was up I realized it was just someone being a fun hating sad sack and went back to laughing about #343bola

But now he can't because I said it first.

NO ACTUALLY. The charity they are giving to is in fact Victims of Yakuza Violence, though it's kind of self serving considering Sony loan repayments are due imminently

if this weren't the xbone thread, you all would have been probated several times over by now. if I went out and made the exact same kind of posts in the PS4 thread, I would be probated. it falls to me; as a man of the xbone's watch, to deal out justice in the way of repeatedly calling you faggots because you don't believe anything I say when I talk about my own xbone experience anyways and then VideoGames posts another lame reddit gif and somebody brings up a driveclub gif for no reason other than be cheeky. gently caress you cheeky people.
