Ye Ol' Console Wars!!!!
Ahhh the age old war of old'

Forget the 360's vs the PS3's! were talking old school.

Amiga Vs the ST
Megadrive(Genesis) vs SNES.
etc vs etc

and what random bollocks reason did you give for why you owned the one you did and what arguements ensued!?

Mine was because the Amiga could have 2 Floppy drives!! made syndicate more fun oh and kick ass graphics!

Grrrrrr clunk clunk clunk.

my excuse was that the sound chip in the ST
sounded like a squashed banana. this may have turned into me saying it was a squashed banana.

one thing the Amiga did really well was sound

Somewhat proving Halfy's case there.

Versus?
Ha, I have both an ST and an Amiga.

My brother still has both a Megadrive and a SNES.

I realise this makes us sound somewhat greedy... so I should add that we didn't have them all back in the day. The ST arrived first, then the Sega, and the others were aquired when our sense of maturity should have known better...

But hey - what's the point in being all grown up and having jobs and earning money if you can't spend it on the things you yearned for when you were a poor teenager with no social life other than two player Sonic?

even older school...
Spectrum vs Commodore 64? I would have included the Amstrad but it was clearly in a crap league of its own.

The Atari 8-bit computers
were better than the C64 and Spectrum. 256 colours - 'nuff said.
