Now you have to support all systems to have a valid opinion and to be taken seriously. Its all turned to crap. Talking about games just isn't as fun as it used to be. People take so much offense over such a trivial thing as a video game.

Whats now deemed pathetic was once alright and I wish people could stop being so mature about these things and let things pass. I remember squabbling about video games and it was all in good nature, nobody would be offended and nobody would fall out. Now things have changed and I'm forced to be careful about what I say in case it upsets anyone and I end up in an argument.
WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE.

Now that I've been playing the Wii's VC a lot though, I really wonder why the Turbo-grafx16 was the rebel system here. It's so awesome.
