    That Crash model looks so uncanny yet accurate to the game, I have no idea who modeled it or had it rigged to look so good. But you gents have done something crazy and I'm curious to see the war between Gamecube, Sega Dreamcast, PS2, and Xbox's beginnings. Not sure what year that'd be though since Dreamcast came out in... 1999. I guess just the big 3 and PC looming further in the back.

      For some reason a part of me feels like the fight between the n64 and ps1 would be that the n64 would put up a good fight between the ps1 and be more powerful then the ps1 but not be able to keep fighting to win against the ps1 because despite having more power they are not able to store enough power to unleash to defeat the ps1 and the ps1 would take a good amount of damage but still win and the n64 would die in the fight and then a certain verison 2 of the playstation would come out to destroy everything...

      @@OAlexisSamaO bruh... Honestly, do you really think, companies like Ubisoft, EA, Sega(to name very, very few) want to sell Cheaper? They are in this industry to make money. They kept the 60$ price even though they went completely digital. No more extra spending on CDs, plastic, manufacturing and distributing them. Now it's all digital and still kept the price. When scrutiny was brought around 2008-2012 to not increase prices, DLCs and loot boxes became a thing to make money. With THAT...i donno if it's better to pay 300$ total for a game over 3 years when all it's DLC is out or what would the market have been, had the original 60$ price had a flat increase BUT, that's why you have 3rd party sites where you can buy keys these days for way cheaper and sales on Distribution services like Steam.
      And let's put it another way. IF Steam was the problem, why Ubisoft, Rockstar created their own service? why did Activision buy Blizzard and move all their games on blizzard's service(besides the servers) ? yet, they still sell on steam. why? There are other platforms like GOG, or epic store, where you can buy from and dont need a steam account to activate your key and play.

PS1 had a few gems and was the future in gaming tech and as a result had a slight edge on N64...plus they better catered to FPS and more mature games. And then...PS2 came out - Game cube tried to put up a fight but was beaten outright, while it had flagship titles that were great it failed in other aspects including poor functionality compared to PS2 and a poor roster - it was at that stage PS2 was completely on top and it's only real competitor was X-box I believe.

      Nintendo backstabbed??? True it could be looked at that way but you're missing a key important part. Sony contract stated Nintendo ips and properties soley belongs to them if they went ahead with the contract.
      Hence lead Nintendo to back out of the deal because it was not legally fair to them at the time. If Nintendo had stayed with the deal they would be Sony's first party studio now with less creative freedom.
      So in short thank god Nintendo "backstabbed" them.

      I'm happy that PlayStation as a brand exists and that it's still going strong, but at the same time, it makes you wonder what gaming would be like, nowadays if certain things or certain decisions worked out in some company's favor.

      I didn't have a Dreamcast but a friend of mine did. That console was ahead of its time. PS1 and PS2 had far worse hardware than the N64 or GameCube/Xbox. It wasn't until PS3 that Sony actually had some good hardware. I think PS1 and PS2 basically survived on the ignorance of parents who didn't know any better. That and this weird thought process that Nintendo didn't have enough non-kiddy games, which was absolute BS.
