Title: TurboGrafx makes IGN's top 25
Post by: 2X4 on September 03, 2009, 10:23:17 AM
You've probably already seen this, but they split it up into four videos (http://gear.ign.com/dor/articles/1019954/top-25-videogame-consoles-of-all-time/videos/top25consl_spc_25_083109.html).  Even after all this time, still getting no love from industry media.  But I thought the whole top 25 was pretty f'd up. ](*,)

I wouldn't say there's 'no love' for the Turbo, considering they ranked it smack in the middle at lucky number 13.  Nice to see the TG-16 outranking the NeoGeo, SMS, Saturn, Gamecube, and PS3, but placing the Nintendo 64 in number 9 has to be a frickin' joke (like the N64 itself).

P.S. - They don't have the top five up yet, but it's a safe bet that it'll include the 2600, NES, SNES, Genesis, and PS2.

P.P.S. - I want to lick her from bottom to top and back again.  Meow.

When they got to the Atari 5200, I just laughed and turned off the video. From what I've heard, EVERYONE seemed to hate the 5200. :lol:

the 5200's software was good, it just had a horrible controller.

I found that ironic too,  :mrgreen:

I never liked the 5200 much. My main reasons were because of the controller and lack of compatibility.
