    Completely off topic but my ring tone is the music that played during the rock paper sissors battles.. I still play the game every now and then. Love it

    Pppffftt... that was the Sega Master System II! I grew up knowing kids who played with the Sega Master System... uh... I! I never owned one though, as I was a Nintendo kid. I've had:
    * Game & Watch
    * Famicom
    * NES
    * Super Nintendo
    * Gameboy
    * N64
    * Gameboy Micro

    Heh, my daughter and I love playing Janken with each other. It's the Japanese version of rock paper scissors, only with a few extra rules.

    I could not for the life of me think of the correct name for it.. And as for the gameboy.. I owe my childhood to one of those things

    Pfft, whippersnapper. C64 vet here. I have decided to hold off until I buy a PS4.

    I have one more game on my PS3 to knocj off until I am satisfied I have finsihed my pile of shame for it.
    Then I'll be all over new Batman, Transformers and probably unchartedrerdredrerdredredrd.

    Haha one of my cousins had the C64. Another one had the good old Amiga 500. Good times, good times.

    I kept my PS3, still like to bash away at FOC and WFC sometimes with my son. It is such a versatile machine, still gets used sometimes as a blu ray player.

    Mine was the Atari 2600 too - though it was the black version

    That is one of the few problems I've found with the game on my first run through. I was playing Grimlock and I had to race Motormaster and didn't get an opportunity to change characters so I was mashing the button non-stop to make him run. On my second go through the game I made sure I was playing as one of the vehicular Autobots after the Blitzwing fight.

    I'd say my first console was the Atari 2600 too however my parents bought me the KO version so it doesn't count My favourite game was Beamrider.

    Jeepers I think you take the cake so far! I've never heard of a Coleco Vision. With the name "Vision" it sounds like it was ahead of its time.

    Lol I had a Coleco too. I was thrilled when I saw it at the Gamesmen in Penhurst as a display piece in their 'Museum'. It was actually a newer console than the Atari with better graphics but overall similar games.
