    Its crazy that the original Xbox was only 8GB but back then it felt like the hard drive was bottomless.

      8GB really felt like an endless amount of storage at the time lol

    The sixth and seventh generation is peak gaming. It will never get any better than that.

    6th Gen was an incredible man. Every console brought something new to the table and laid the foundation that we take for granted today.
    Great video btw bro!!

      Completely agree man, it felt like each console wasn’t afraid to take risks this generation either which allowed us to get some great experimental titles.
      Thanks bro! Hopefully we can play some ps3 online together at some point

      ​@FranchisePlayyer Absolutely man! If you ever get the chance, the dreamcast online community is really neat. Still plenty of people there

    A time where you could buy a game and get the full game on disc. No system updates bugging you. Everything just worked.
    Each console had a unique dashboard which gave them more personality. Now consoles use a corporate sanitized home menu with ads.

    The 6th generation was amazing! I miss the days where games were made with passion (generally) and didn't have micro transactions and the need for DLC to complete a game. My favourite games this generation are Star Wars Battlefront 2, DBZ Budokai Tenkaich 3, Time Splitters 3, Super Mario Strikers, Power Stone, Crazy Taxi and Smash Melee

      I loved the DBZ Budokai games on ps2! This pre update/DLC generation was awesome

      So like the majority of consoles before the 6th gen as well, then?

    I was so obsessed with the PS2, still kind of am. But on GameCube I really loved Wind Waker and Metroid Prime. X-Box was the Dreamcast 2 for a lot of us Sega Heads. I was never a Halo guy so Xbox really never did much to excite me being an avid pc player at the time, Nintendo and Sony had so many good and important to gaming exclusive. So many great games on PS2, Person 3/4, Ff12, Jack and Daxter, Gran Turismo ect… literally Dozens of exclusives that are critical to the modern gaming industry got their start on PS2. But yeah Crazy Taxi 3 goes hard on OG Xbox.

      The ps2 library was incredible, there’s a game for literally anyone on that console

    This is the last generation where each console felt unique, where each console had its own identity.

    • @FranchisePlayyer

      You don’t think that about the 7th gen?

    • @residentevilclone
      @residentevilclone 3 місяці тому +2

      7th gen was weird.
      360 v PS3, with Wii doing its own thing. I guess that was kind of the beginning of Sony finding their stride with more exclusive IPs. Meanwhile the 360 kinda functioned as the superior multi-platform machine. Definitely fell off more with 8th gen, you’re right.

    I grew up with the PS2 it was amazing playing games with my brothers. My favorite childhood game for the PS2 is King Arthur.
    I now got a Dreamcast and the Gamecube.

    the 6 gen library is ram pack with good games no other gen did this they broke the barriers. These new gen could never do that. it takes too long to create a game on these new gen that's why they remastering and remake from gen 5 and 6

    • @FranchisePlayyer
      @FranchisePlayyer  3 місяці тому +2

      During the 6th gen it always seemed like there were multiple new games to be excited for. Unfortunately can’t say the same about current gen.

    • @OrbitGametv
      @OrbitGametv 3 місяці тому +2

      @@FranchisePlayyer they current gen failed to have enough games to the public because the new consoles are more into realistic graphics and this took way more time to create. nice to meet you by the way.

    Ah yes, fun edgy times. Times, when something really good was being overlooked for the sake of having something ultimate; competition was at insane level. Music, movies, videogames. But that's good, because for every good thing from back in the day we didn't pay much attention, now we have a plenty of time to get acquaintaned to that and share some thoughts. Come to think of it, that's why we may have so many remasters, reboots and remakes? So many videos of hidden gems for these consoles? Huh.

    The PS2 is my second favorite console of all time right behind the PS3. No micros-transactions and games were released complete. So much nostalgia haha.

    • @FranchisePlayyer
      @FranchisePlayyer  3 місяці тому

      Yeah man the ps2 is definitely up there in my all time console list as well. Having a complete game at launch nowadays would be a miracle lol

    The dreamcast more belongs in the ps1 and n64 era, these youtubers are such wishful thinkers

    • @CalebMichaelRiley
      @CalebMichaelRiley 3 місяці тому +6

      You must be thinking of the Sega Saturn. Which was Sega’s offering for the 5th generation along side Playststion 1 and n64. Dreamcast would have been making games well into the life of PS2 if not for DVD being included with PS2 and Bernie Stohler being a complete idiot and destroying Sega of America with a series of bad decisions that are all well documented and talked to death about on UA-cam.

    • @FranchisePlayyer

      Dreamcast is definitely 6th gen, wish it would’ve been supported longer.
