Totally!! You can see that from my playing skills!

The only console I had as a kid was a Sega Mega Drive… But only ever played a few games.. (still playing Sonic on my PSP today!

)

As I never owned a console I decided to go all out with the PS3… we're talking €700 when it was released!!! Sooo worth it

Hey hey, its been a great 15 years!
Wow 15 years... I remember getting my PS1 with Air Combat (the first Ace Combat) and being blown away! I mean what did we have to compare it with then Genisis and SNES I think were the top dogs around that time (or virtual boy!). And even when N64 came out the next year it didnt hold a candle to the PS1 (althought I always wished Goldeneye came to PS1 as that is the game that I feel gave multiplayer the kick in the a$$ it needed).
PS1 was my first console, had played many others before that but none were my own. MGS, Tekken, Gran Turismo, Resident Evil, Crash... It was a great time to be a gamer and Sony hasn't stopped since. Come to think of it, I think the PS1 was my first cd player too!
