The leaders of the three largest Houses form a Triumvirate which is responsible for leading the region. We believe in open elections for all citizens of our region and operate a one of the major defender forces in the game, which protects regions across Nationstates from invasion.

N64: two Zelda games, GoldenEye, Perfect Dark, Donkey Kong 64, Mario Kart

PS2: FF12, four Ratchet & Clank games, the Jak & Daxter trilogy + Jak X: Combat Racing, backwards-compatible with the PS1 classics

Xbox: Halo, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, Gun

Those are the consoles I have extensive experience playing, and the games that make them unique. If I ignore the current-gen systems (which haven't yet come into their own) I'll have to vote PS2. The games make the console, so right now the 360 beats the PS3 but the PS2 pwns both newer systems for price and game library. The 360 and some PS3 models aren't 100% backwards compatible, so they fail. PS3 with PS2 hardware (early models) = total win, though.

All told, I vote PS2.

PS2 was awesome. It pwned the game market for like 7 years, and they last forever(I got one when they first came out and it still runs and ive done some heavy gaming on those)cheap, awesome games, good graphics(not when compared to PS3 360 and wii though but awesome for its time), durable, and introduced the DVD, music, and online game play. And the thin only weighs around a pound(compared to the clunky and heavy Wii, 360, Xbox(that thing was huge)Gamecube, and PS3)so yeah I hope if the PS4 comes out it's like a modernized version of the Ps2 :D

Have to go with the N64 out of the choices avaliable had the best multiplayer games (original smash brothers anyone). Still if the Meag Drive or Master System was up there I would be slightly torn (I loved the way the MS came free with the first sonic).

N64 did have SSB, GoldenEye, Perfect Dark, DK64, and Mario kart. I give you that. And the PS family required a multitap and multitap compatible games for more than 2 players until the PS3 came along

Ok compare this:

Xbox 360: http://hardware.teamxbox.com/articles/xbox...ecifications/p1

the 80 and 160 GB: http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/Systems/Compare

a little one sided, lol you think the definition of hardware is Blu-Ray. Plus I don't see your reasoning. You said when xbox is getting blu-ray and that will make it better. So lets say that the PS3's blu-ray is the only thing that makes it better (which is untrue), but when the xbox gets it, it would be better, which makes no sense even if it where true. The hardware is not better look at the stats. Plus I hope Microsoft knows that Sony makes the Blu-ray. And sony will jack up the price for xbox360. And when they release games in Blu-Ray, You have to put in a new disc drive. It's a shame HD DVD failed.

Live vs PSN
I have played both systems religiously and as of a couple of months ago, I think PSN passed up Live. You can now do anything on PSN that you can do on Xbox live. Plus PSN is FREE the only thing Xbox has the PS3 doesn't is universal invite system, BUT the what the PS3 has that xbox360 doesn't is dedicated game servers, which is a lot less laggy. And what pushes PS3 way over the edge is this:
