Fantastic article, really enjoyed the read. Man, I remember some of those commercials, they were great! Funny that the fat kid from the Game Gear ad went on to become a moderately successful film/tv star.
Ahh memories. You know I kind of do miss those days, when the companies themselves were engaging in the antics, and it was more than just pointless forum posts calling everyone "fags" if they have a ps3 instead of an xbox. So many people have multiple platforms these days that it really doesn't matter though. The only real differences to tout are console exclusives (Uncharted vs Halo, etc), but it's not the same. Back in the day you were gung ho about whatever ONE system you had. Except for that damn kid down the block who had all of them.
