Title: Consoles vs. Emualtor
Post by: logical123 on October 17, 2007, 08:12:35 pm
Just to see what people around here play on. I personally prefer the console, but like emulators because you can do everything right on your computer.

Well I use both Emulators and Consoles.

At home, I like to use the actual systems, when applicable and convenient, for that genuine feel. On the road, I use quite a few emulators on my custom firmware PSP, since using the actual systems is unwise or out of the question, with exception to NDS and GBA.

When it comes down to it, I really just want the best experience I can get playing the games. Whether the actual system or the emulator provides this, and whichever is readily available, makes my final decision on the matter.

Putting it simply, I have no preference, and frequently use both choices. I use whichever works better or is more practical for the situation.

I use consoles for consoles that I have, and Ems for consoles that I don't have/have no chance of getting (like Sega Genesis).

Big, fat "CONSOLE" here. I suck on emulators, and playing on a real console just feels better. TV screen instead of tiny Window, original pad nstead of keyboard...

I use both, though generally I only use emulators for Sonic games/hacks and games that I would otherwise probably never be able to play (hi Bahamut Lagoon<3)
