I currently own a PSOne and a GameCube, and will get a PS2 when I can afford it (hopefully within the next six months).

I play the GameCube a lot more than the PSOne, but that's due to the fact that I have a more varied library of games on the GCN (racing, sports, extreme sports, sim, adventure...) while my PSX games are pretty much all RPGs or retro compilations, with the exception of Tony Hawk 2. I love RPGs, but I often feel more like a quick game rather than let myself get immersed in the Final Fantasy world, or in Tactics Ogre, or in Lunar 1.

I have PS1, Dreamcast, GameCube and XBox. Don't play PS1 at all. Dreamcast sometimes, XBox for Live and GameCube for good ol' Mario.

I had them all & then sold my PS1 because is wasn't needed anymore (PS2).

In the last month, I probably played the Xbox 60% of the time (Xbox Live baby!), N64 15%, GameCube 15% PS2 10%, and the Dreamcast 0%.

I'm going back and digging up "old relics" for my N64 like Conker. Love that game! I also just got Knockout Kings 2000 and am really enjoying it. I guess I use the N64 to give me a break from all the real-life competition Xbox Live offers.

PlayStation, Dreamcast, Nintendo 64, PS2, and a GameCube.

Most of the time I play my PS2 but last summer I played alot of Psone in my downtime. N64, bah, there's not really left to that system.
Gamecube, nothing. YET. Metriod Prime comes out very soon though.

I have a PS1 and a Dreamcast. But I play them so much that I haven't had the chance to get a newer system. If I get one this Xmas it will probably be the Gamecube for the Mario/Kirby games or the PS2 for some Sega Sports games and DDR Max.

On the PS1 I only really play 2 games right now, Gran Turismo 2 and Dance Dance Revolution. But its the Dreamcast that has kept me busy, I have over 200 games for it and I'm constantly trying out new emulators for it. The Atari 800/5200 emu and the NES emu are my current favorites.

Got them all, technically...I don't get the XBox until Christmas...

Right now I play the N64 the least because I don't have a whole lot of good games for it...and it's in the basement, where my Atari 2600 and Colecovision are...

PS1 for me. I have three PS1s actually - an old larger model, a PSone with the LCD screen, and a Japanese PSone. Don't have anything more recent than that - and I really haven't seen anything that's compelling enough to make me want any of the more recent consoles.

I have a Dreamcast and a Nintendo64, and I'll be the VERY proud owner of a GameCube (FINALLY!) at the end of this month.. I've owned the DC a lot longer than the N64, AND have a heck of a lot more games for it, so it makes sense that it's gotten more play. But I also prefer the DC. I think it's gonna be my favorite for a long time... I like the games, I like the controller, and it's constantly hooked up to my tv, ready to play at a moment's notice.

I have a ps1, ps2, Dreamcast and a Nintendo 64... I probably play the ps2 the most (GTA 3 and Vice City .. I'd like to pick up a gamecube one of these days when I have the extra money sitting around. I refuse to get a XBOX. The only way I'm picking one of them up is if I see it for under $100 at a garage sale. :-)

I play the N64 the least... I only have about 6 games for it and I'll play the first Zelda when I'm in the mood. (yes -- I do play the ps1, Hot Shots Golf 1 and 2 help me relax and get to sleep at night)

I own a PS1. It's anyone's guess whether or not I'll get any of the others for Christmas or not, but everyone here knows how much I collect videogames & systems. I got a few things of that sort last year.

Got em all. But the only ones I'm able to play right now is DC, PS2, GCN, and Xbox cause that's what I've got at school with me. But because of PSO & Animal Crossing, the GCN is seeing more action.

I have a PSX, PS2, DC, N64, and a GC. I don't have an XBox yet cause bills got in the way :roll:

As for what I play most? Probably my PS2 and my GC (lately). I've been playing old PSX games on my PS2 (Wild Arms 2 lately), and Animal Crossing on my GC. I'm also about to get Metroid Prime and plan to play the crap out of it :lol:

Everything but an XBox, which I wasn't ever planning on buying until stupid Nintendo sold off Rare to Microsoft... :bad-words:

PS-DC-GC

I play my gamecube mostly(need for speed).

I had a ps2 but sold it so i could get the cube, I don't regret it. :wink:

I have an N64, DC and GC.

They all get roughly about the same gameplay time. My N64 always gets used when friends come round for PD, Goldeneye and F-Zero X. My DC gets used a lot for all of the fighting games I have for it (more than any of my other consoles put together) and my Gamecube has had Super Monkey Ball in it for the last 2 months. I will beat expert mode if it kills me.

If it kills me.

PS2

I never play on the Nintendo. I don't have much games for it and just don't like the system. of The three I do play on the PS2 gets the most action since I just bought GTA Vice city. Before that the psx got the most.

I can pretty much guarantee I won't be getting any of the other 3 until the next generation of consoles comes along.

I never use my N64. DC and PSX get about equal playtime, though still not as much as my older consoles. That may change next time I get some free playtime.

Personally, I completely own a PS1. An N64 (which resides at my place), a Dreamcast, and now an XBox I co-own with my brother/sister-in-law. I play the PS1 and N64 about 50/50. The XBox, whenever I'm over at the bro-in-laws.

One PS1 - played fairly often

2 Dreamcast systems - one for emu, one for officially produced DC games

Nintendo 64 - almost never played

PS2 - Played prolly the most out of all of them right now and quickly gathering games.

GameCube - was hoping for one, but alas... so don't have one

Xbox - don't have one and have no plans to get one any time soon

PS, N64, GC. All but the GC purchased cheap. Need to get a PS2 for sure. Hope to get an Xbox eventually. I'm a cheap bastard. :twisted:

I've gopt the Dreamcast that some friends got me last year for Christmas. I guess that they were getting sick of my "newest system" being an SNES. I really like novelty games like "Samba De Amigo", "Seaman", and of course "Jet Grind Radio".

I'll likely be getting one or more of the new consoles since I write reviews for an online magazine, but if I were picking one to buy it would be tough. Xbox has the specs but few good games (from what I hear) and the whole MicroSoft tendency to stick its nose into everything you're doing. The GameCube has a lot of imaginative games a la the DC, but has no other use than games (can't play DVD's etc.). I know the least about the PS2, but not having a PS1 this would be a good way to have access to all those hundreds of titles that are out there.

All but the Xbox.

That could change if I could find a good deal with an XBox and Steel Battalion. I'm a sucker for weird and wonderful controllers...

I'm lucky enough that I've got 'em all.

I love everything in my collection but I definitely play the newer stuff *way* more. Right now the machine I play the most is Xbox: I've got it hooked up to a projector and I'm close to finishing Halo (level 9). There's *nothing* cooler than playing Halo on a wall. Well, if I could get my surround setup in the same room as the projector that would be cooler.

My favourite would be Gamecube though. I think I will always be a Nintendo junkie...

I own all of them and then some.

PS2 is still the most used system in my house, followed by the Gamecube.

The ps2 gets the greatest workout thanks to kingdom hearts and vice city.
The xbox will when nhl 2k3 come out next week.
My dreamcast gets played about once a week
Have not touched the other systems in over a month.

I got Microsoft's first video game console...

...the MSX.

Ah, I have access to an XBOX (it's in "the family") but I'm not terribly fond of it. Someday they will be really cool, exotic mantel pieces.

Let see I have a N64, Dreamcast, and a PS2. I had a PSX but sold it when I got the 2. Dreamcast and PS2 get about equal time, but I only really play PS1 games on the latter. Currently playing Shenmue II, Hydro Thunder, and Silent Hill. The N64 hasn't been hooked up since I got around to finishing Majora's Mask.

There are a number of game I would like to get on PS2 (Suikoden 3, Kingdom Hearts, Silent Hill 2), but haven't felt like shelling out big bucks on them or haven't finished the PSX originals yet.

Currently saving up for a Gamecube Mario bundle.

Cheers,

I just picked up an Xbox this week and it's sweet. I've been playing Robotech all night. I'm also working my way thru a whole season on Baseball 2K1 on my DC.

got 'em all. just need more time to enjoy the too damn many good games coming out. my n64 hasn't been touched in a few months, although i've bought about 8 more games for it, lol.

i use the xbox least right now- morrowind was the last game i spent major time on (still haven't finished it!). i played the splinter cell demo to death O.o, and i got a reviewable racing game final from empire to write up recently...

just recently, i've been getting better acquainted with my dreamcast, thanks to some cheap e-beg buys on import games- a load of stuff was going for about 10 bucks a pop, and i grabbed a few more. i only have a paltry 70 dc games total, so i'll need to add a few more at some point...

PlayStation- Own it and it now sits in its original box in retirement.

Dreamcast- Own it and it is hooked up to my TV but not used much right now.

Nintendo 64- Own it and it was only used once (Star Wars version with the racing game).

PS2- Own it and is hooked up to the TV and I probably play this the most.

GameCube- NO NO NO NO NO until they drop the price to $49.99! LOL

Xbox- Own it but not hooked up right now. Waiting for Steel Battalion.
