I honestly really enjoy these types of videos, would love to see more gaming based videos on the channel.
Thank you!
No no, MGK and Corey Taylor videos only
@@kylestahlman8013 correction, corey taylor opinion videos**
I agree!
Definitely would love to see more gaming content.
Another thing about the PS2 was that it was the first DVD player for a LOT of people.
Sony killed DVD/Blu-ray players lmfao
Hell yeah
love these type of videos :)
Same even tho he's wrong about Xbox I had so much pirated music on there and it was great because some of the Xbox games had terrible music
Porn accessibility rating 😂
"There wasn't a single PS3 exclusive I needed to have" The Uncharted Series, God of War, The Last of Us, Infamous, Beyond Two Souls, Metal Gear Solid, this console imo had the best exclusives in that generation of consoles
MGS5 was amazing. Forgot about that
Gotta love the diverse experiences Sony first party action adventure cinematic linear GOTY-bait games offer.
MGSIV was cool.
The Gamecube was actually more powerful than the PS2 despite the console only using mini discs, and not having a DVD player without the add on.
That and the lack of third party support was its downfall. The specs were definitely better than ps2 and could punch up to Xbox at times.
No, it wasn't lol it was more easier to make games for and the graphics looked like shit ps2 has better specs
@@juvedoo99 ok fanboy. Lol
@@nevermindgaming6848 The Gamecube was more powerful than the PS2 in terms of specs. The PS2 was only slightly more powerful than the Dreamcast and a lot of early games like Rayman 2 and Unreal Tournament were better on DC than PS2.
@@juvedoo99the GameCube is my favorite Nintendo console and the controller is in my top 5 controllers of all time and i say this as a playstation fan ,Metroid prime for me was something else
You're actually wrong about the Gamecube dude. Though it was a common misconception, if you look up the specs, the Gamecube was actually more powerful than the Ps2 in every metric. Its big downfall was the proprietary discs, small and could not hold more a couple gigs of data, meaning a lot of games had to be scaled down. General speaking when games had multi platform releases, they often performed the worst on ps2, gamecubes graphics are better, though even at the time I believed otherwise lol. Xbox was more or less twice as powerful as the Gamecube, Microsoft sold them at a huge loss purposely to build a follower base (and honest they can afford to lose millions of dollars lmao) ~ Done with my nerd rant, Gamecube stan forever lmao
Plus the GameCube was stronger than a brick. I swear you could have thrown it off a two story building and it would still work
@@PhoenixRiseinFlame Such a good point the only games left during the apocalypse will be GameCube.
Yeah the tiny discs didn't do it any favors, but the quality control for those things was next-level
Gamecube should be S tier. 🙌🏻 My favorite games to this day are on Gamecube. I feel like other consoles are mostly shooters which I have zero interest in. Yes, Finn, I would rather ONLY play Gamecube than any other console forever! I also just love Gamecube controllers.
May be my rose tinted glasses but I think RE4 and four player Naruto equals S tier for that alone.
Now this is the Serious Professional Videogame Journalism that RUclips was meant for!!!
Finn throwing down the PC master race grenade at the last moment and I'm here for it.
I come for Finn’s takes on music but stay for Finn’s knowledge of RPGs.
I find we agree a lot more when it comes to gaming than music… I actually love these gaming videos a lot!! Would love to see more :)
"GameCube's graphics were outdated on release"? Whoever that guy was in chat has no idea what they're talking about. GameCube was kind of a little monster when it came out. Not quite to the level of the Xbox, but certainly more powerful than the PS2, and it held it's own for a long time. I actually think for the first year or so if it's life, it was pumping out better looking games than the Xbox. It wasn't really until Splinter Cell when the Xbox REALLY started showing it's power and taking the graphical lead among the three consoles of that generation. Regardless though, I think the GameCube is one of the most underappreciated consoles of all time. It's full of classics. And it was Nintendo's last "traditional" console tbh.
You got a lot of power for the money. It was priced at $100 dollars after a couple years. It didn't get a lot of 3rd party games because Nintendo made the same mistake they made with the 64 and went with mini discs instead of DVDs
Bro he's right lol some of those games looked better on ps and Xbox lol
Also wasn't Luigi's Mansion loved by almost everybody? Isn't it a classic now that has to sequel? I don't think a game has to be as epic as Halo to have a big following like Luigi's Mansion did.
@@nevermindgaming6848 some of that might boil down to how hard Nintendo makes it to develop for any of their platforms or that the memory on the GC discs were smaller hence why they got double discs like with 007 Rogue Agent. The GameCube hands down had better graphics than the ps2 though.
@@jordansims7838 no it didn't lol sorry man
The thing about OG xbox was it was kinda stuck in between generations, but for a lot of the games released on multiple platforms, the Xbox version had better graphics and framerates.
How? The console came out in 2001, a few days before the GameCube in US.
Xbox has better games and you can save music to the Xbox and the load times were faster
@@nevermindgaming6848 Playing GTA3 & racing games with your own music was awesome at the time.
Xbox was dope. Being able to play KOTOR as a kid was a mind blowing experience. It also made me reflexively dismiss anything with memory cards.
Dream cast was so ahead of its time. It laid the groundwork for what online console gaming is today
Thank you lol
Imagine how much better console gaming would be without the internet.
@@martyfromnebraska1045it would just be like the switch lol.
I was born in 84, the NES was my first system. That said, you really gave the GameCube a raw deal. Maybe not a ton of games were on it, but there were a ton of great games for the size of the library. Animal Crossing, WindWaker, Paper Mario Thousand Year Door. I played it as an adult and actually traded in my PS2 for it. I guess opinion does depend on what type of game you like though. It's one of my favorite Nintendo systems and my least favorite is actually the N64. The best are probably Super Nintendo and Switch.
Imagine the GameCube's power if Resident Evil 4 had actually remained exclusive to it
@@emilionavarrete5169 the primary flaw with the GameCube was the proprietary disc size they used to prevent piracy. It was just too small for a lot of games. A pretty dumb decision imo.
@@xenos_n. Agreed, like Finn said, Nintendo tends to make their consoles too hard to port onto.
@@emilionavarrete5169 it's not even on purpose, they just use really old and cheap tech so it can barely play any new games, but in this age of indie games the great thing is that didn't stop the Switch from being an indie powerhouse which is one of the reasons I love it. Now that I'm getting a SteamDeck though that will probably take the place of my Switch Lite for almost everything except a few Nintendo exclusives.
SNES or SWITCH?!?! 😂😂😂 OK Boomer.
It's:
1.) PS2
2.) Xbox360
3.) N64
4.) PS1
5.) Nintendo DS
HM.) Game Boy Advanced
As someone who’s been asking you retro video games questions for a minute. I am stoked for this one Finn!
Mad respect for the PS1 love. I only really caught the tail end of the SNES/Genesis era, but I got a PS1 in July 1997 and played the ever loving heck out of it. I rented so many games over many weekends, and since the PS2 was backwards compatible I was playing PS1 games well into the mid to late 2000s. For sure my favorite console of all time.
Yeah but the loading was unbearable for me. I liked the video clips and audio quality for the ps1 though which was advanced at the time . the Saturn was capable of similar things but developers were scared of the dual processor and it just flopped big time commercially here in the US
Ahh Finn, a true man of culture making a console tier list. S tier vid.
Finally a fellow PSP defender! I had one for around 13 years and there were some insane games on that little thing, Invizimals was one of my favorites.
I probably sunk 100 hours into Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep alone.
I loved my PSP. Definitely the best handheld console pre switch.
@@jacobvelasquez562 Same here! I specifically got a psp just for birth by sleep and then I dove into peace walker, crisis core, dissidia, and used it as a music player for years. Good times
The red ring of death boosted the sales a lot because it was still cheaper to rebuy xbox instead of getting a PS3 and all new games.
The red ring was Xbox and it cost them so much money so many people jumped ship to PlayStation which is cheaper than the Xbox you didn't have to pay to play online and the Cds takes more damage to ruin rather than the Xbox where the game stops after leaving it in
@@nevermindgaming6848
Xbox live was also infinitely better than PSN and no one was buying a PS3 because it was cheaper. PS3 was collecting dust until they dropped the price with the slim IIRC.
Loving the non-music-related content! We have a lot of other interests in common I'm finding and its super cool hearing you talk about other topics
You had me worried talking about the Gamecube but my man, mad props for talking about the greatness that is Duck Tales for the NES. The Moon theme is a certified banger too.
And hard agree on the SNES. It's my greatest console of all time.
Best thing about dreamcast was perfect arcade ports of Marvel Vs Capcom 1 and 2. Shenmue was pretty cool. The 90s were fun..
SNK ports on the Dreamcast were really good too.
Please more video game vids! This was so much fun! Well done Finn!
Awesome video. Hope one day there will be a part 2 to this!
Castlevania on the DS! My man! It's sad that they've seemingly been completely forgotten about. They just released a GBA Castlevania collection on the Switch, I'm really hoping they do the same for the DS games. With how popular 2D Metroidvanias have become, more people should get to experience them.
Yess i been saying I'm happy about advance collection and hope there's a DS collection but Konami lazy and they'd have to do work bc of the dual screens to 1 screen so don't know. Really wish they would tho
The guy behind these games created his own Franchise named Bloodstained.
Ao they never disappeared they just changed names.
I'm 6 months late, but thanks to you, I now have this on Steam.
Holy shit finally someone else that knows how awesome Jeanne D’Arc is that game deserved so much more attention
Great video Finn, I'm same age as you so I remember all these, but you did miss out the Commodore 64 with the cassette cartridges LOL!!!
Gonna pick up an Edgy Font shirt bro
Loved the c64!
GameCube was Nintendo's last real console, and it had a bottomless pit of AMAZING 1st party and 2nd party games. And the controller was a masterpiece! Even to this day, I still play it regularly. I grew up in the Genesis/SNES era and had a GameCube in my teens when hardly anyone else them since they were the uncool console of the generation.
But the games though!! Super smash Bros Melee, Resident Evil Remake, Metroid Prime, Eternal Darkness, The Wind Waker, Pikmin, Resident Evil 4, Mario Party 4, F-Zero GX, Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, Timesplitters 2, 007 Nightfire, Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes, Super Monkey Ball. They were all amazing and I played the hell out of them.
Uncharted 1-3 was on the PS3. That wasn’t everyone’s jam, but was definitely a good game & really popular. MLB the Show was a PS exclusive too, which was really popular & easily the best baseball game across all consoles.
These games have aged poorly people don't care for them anymore.
Scripted games generally were a fad.
Super Mario Bros. 3 was the first game that I remember highly anticipating to be released. I only owned one for a couple of years before the SNES was released though.
Bought SNES on day of release, and finished Super Mario World the same day!
When PS1 was released I had a dream that I got one and was really happy, but then I woke up, and was devastated that I didn't have one!
Same here. 84 baby, got an NES when I was like 5-6? long after it launched, and the SNES was the first system I was PSYCHED to get (which I got for Christmas when I was 8). I'll never forget the first commercial I saw and seeing the big boo in Mario World, I distinctly remember FREAKING THE FUCK OUT, lol.
Yep, saw The Wizard in the movie theater on opening weekend. The release of SM3 absolutely blew me away
i love these sorts of vids finn! my first console was an xbox 360 and i used to love playing minecraft on it!
FINN long time sub, I remember chatting with you on instagram before you had 2k subs.. crazy. Ima buy a shirt cuz your videos are great although I’ve disagreed a few times. Keep it up bro
Thanks for all the support!
I was one of the few kids with a 3DO. My dad worked for Sony and won it at work. It was such a wild experience that my first game system was a 3DO and then point and click quest for glory style games on pc lol
Literally the single soonest day it could have been shipped upon release, the tenant before me ordered the highest tier package bundle for the PS5 to my apartment. I got in contact with the guy who bought it to give it back(because it was obviously expensive), but he was just like “haha, its okay dude. That was my own mistake. Just keep it. I already have another on the way. Consider it a housewarming gift”. He was a real one lemme tell you
Holy shit lol
I don't care if you're gay, bi, or flat out straight, you should marry that man..
I JUST Subscribed this week . showed my wife. she did too. you were quickly becoming my fav youtuber. a couple of reasons. Number one, I really feel your stories about being a huge screw up when you were younger and seeing the evidence of all the growing and improving you have made is my story to a T.
Number 2 Seeing your mature take on music. I was born in 85 and remember kids would have lost their lives if they admitted to liking certain bands, BSB, GREEN DAY, Creed etc. I remember all the stupid gatekeeper shit us "Real fans" all the bands we had to pretend to be super into and all the bad bands we had to either vocally hate or sneak a listen to on the dl while simultaneously disssing them. I used to be that guy and after growing I hate that guy.
Number 3 you have been more influential than almost all of my homies as you were able to get us to give new bands a try. I moved my wife and kids to Shenzhen China back in 2013 and brought two 500 disc cases of 80s and 90s cartoons, only show them 80s music movies usually etc. was also massive into hip hop all that blah blah. I just had given up on new music almost 100 percent. after 2 weeks of your videos got into Ronnie Rad (who didnt even know who he was.) Jxdn, Young bludd, etc all dope. Its good to hearr ya be real BUT.....................
Where you put the Dreamcast on this list is unforgivable! Unsubbed. hahahha. I am joking but the Dreamcast Changed my life. I was locked up in a place called the Utah Boys Ranch as a teenager nick named the Mormon Gulag and actually the DC was instrumental in keeping me a live , now that I think about it . the 1st video I ever made when I didn't know how to produce vids on this channel While living in Shenzhen was my Dreamcast story if ya wanna hear it.
any way take back what you said about my best friend and I will let it slide.
apologies for voice to text typos. Keep it up Finn I think you are friends with my famous RUclipsr buddy from China Laowai86. Tell him Kodak Says hi. I have some vids roasting him and Serpentza back in the day . lol
Thanks man! Yes I know him, I used to go to shenzhen a lot
Love your channel!!
Thank you!
I never had a console in my life and I hate videogames. Why am I even watching this? 😂 At this point I'm gonna watch anything that Finn puts out 😁
I'm so sorry 😟
How can you hate video games? That’s like saying “I hate fun”.
I wanted a dreamcast so bad back in the day, but my dad couldn't find any. We ended up getting a ps1 instead (we were a bit behind) but that was where I started my love for sony.
Too bad Sony became the anticosumer juggernaut we have today...
@@adlerdefender8067 How so?
@@joshkuchmy8801 they didn't want cross play, they charge for the upgrade, no backwards capable etc
@@adlerdefender8067 Sure not wanting cross play is a weird decision. Charging for upgrades, didn't they kind of go back on that? Even still, there is still work done on those upgrades, so I don't see an issue with that in certain circumstances. At least now when you buy a game you get the ps4 and ps5 version together.
And backwards compatibility is not as easy as it may seem. Yes microsoft did it, but they have tons and tons and tons more money than sony has.
@@joshkuchmy8801 ??? More money? Sony has been in the game since late 90's at one point the Ps2 was the most sell console so money shouldn't be an issue. Sony is just anti consumer, they just take advantage of their fanbase just like Apple does..
You're such a baby - the Dreamcast Dpad cut up thumb! Man up bro 😂
THIS is gonna be treat, thnx finn have nice weekend and stay safe!!!!
Gamecube was more powerful than the PS2 and almost as powerful as the Xbox. Also, thanks for mentioning Canon Spike. I loved that game.
That's hilarious dude it's not tho sorry Nintendo was always behind with technology
Shout out to myself for still having my orange 9/9/99 Dreamcast t-shirt that I got for free on launch night! 🤘
Here's a throwback I remember. The PS3 playing Spiderman 3 in a display case in Blockbuster. What a staple in time.
The GameCube was actually pretty powerful compared to the other consoles on the market at the time. It was more powerful than the PS2 and quiet a bit more powerful than Dreamcast.
The graphics in soul calibur II were mind-blowing
I think I agree with just about everything except for the PS3 ranking. The "Uncharted" series and "God of War 3" are a few of my favorite games; at the time, the only appeal of the Xbox 360 was that it had "Bioshock", but once they made that for PS3, it was pretty much a perfect console for me.
Im just waiting for Finn to turn into a swap meet going, shelf collecting gamer. Then to evolve into a balding overweight, neck beard who does nothing gaming related and turned into an anti SJW drama channel.
LOL. I was one of those collectors about 20 years ago, thank god I grew out of that
Anti SJWs are safe but sjws need to go away
Really enjoyed this
Awesome tier video Finn!!! Really enjoyed this 👌🏻
PS3 is S Tier for me. The free online, Blu-ray player and rechargeable controller made up for lack of exclusives.
OG Xbox is A Tier. Exclusives weren’t good. But the Controller S is still one of the best controllers ever. And every game that was cross-platform looked and played better than on PS2. And a lot of games had the ability to listen to your own music while you played. Shooting my way through streets of Verblensk in BLACK while the theme to “Pokémon: The First Movie” plays in the background will always be a fond memory.
OG Xbox had a core of extremely strong exclusives, imo. Star Wars:Knights of the Old Republic is one of the best rpg's of all time, and Bioware' s other offerings like KotOR 2 and Jade Empire were also good. Of course, Halo 1+2. Forza Motorsport. Online shooters like Mechwarrior and Crimson Skies were a lot of fun. To put it below GameCube doesn't make a lot of sense to me based on 3rd party support.
@@mattb.2740every generation always has and always will lose to a PS. PS3 is definitely the best system overall of the 21 century. I like my 4 and 2 was really good, I’ll get around to the 5 but everything Microsoft sucks.
Haven't watched this yet, but since Finn talks about 90's JRPGs and Super Metroid, I'm assuming SNES is S tier. Also, he uses the MGS codec sound effect and talks about FF7, so I'm thinking PS1 is A or S.
Your musical takes are very spicy. I think you have the right personality for a very entertaining gaming channel.
I love Finn’s twitch clip tier list videos for sure. As I am close to Finn’s age, I can say that we have similar memories with gaming consoles. I’d have to say my top consoles throughout my childhood to now would be: SEGA Genesis, SUPER Nintendo, N64, PS2, PS4 & OCULUS. This is my opinion of course lol
Skipped to the end, glad I didn't watch.
It's over, Xbox bros.
Keep up the tier lists bro!
Love when you talk about games!
This made for an awesome video, thank you
Love the gaming content man! Really switches things up on this channel. I grew up on the Nintendo DS due to Pokémon, Metroid, etc. And Xbox because Halo was my favorite shooter franchise, I really enjoyed Gears of War on the 360 as well, and even though I game a lot on my PC nowadays, my fave console this Gen is definitely the PS4, they really stepped it up since the PS3 imo
Love this video. Hope to see more. Most of my favorite games that I have ever played were played on the Xbox 360 and the OG Playstation, so those have to be S-tier for me. I would love to see you add some more of the handheld stuff in a later video. For me, GBC is S-tier despite its only difference being a simple gimmick. I played the Dragon Warrior and Pokemon games until the cartridges failed.
Great vid - would have loved to see your ranking of the 3DS. IMO the ultimate moddable handheld, since there are no worries about bans (and no injecting payloads) and it's got a really good library of games
UNBELIEVABLE :O A Finn video where the opinions aren't total trash?! I never thought I'd see the day....
Loving these variety videos! NES is still my favorite
That cartoon monster shirt is pretty rad. Might have to snag one. Keep up the grind Finn!
Hope he does a part 2 this was fun.a rewatch today
You name dropping “Tomba” makes me so happy!! What a great series
Never thought about the dreamcast being an arcade port machine. That's why I loved playing it with my friends but not often alone.
100% agree with your take on Super Mario World. I go back and play through most of it every couple years. Saw one of friends from college posting on FB about introducing his son to it, because it was his favorite game growing up, too.
Unfortunately i wanted to know what tier you give the genesis/mega drive. Please share!!
Dude, I can’t believe you had a PSP signed by project 86. That’s so cool, I loved that band around the time, truthless hero’s was suck a sick album. Anyway, I’d have fought you for that PSP.
YES MY SONNN!! You are truly tapping into your personal channel. I hope your Missus can find her way too soon
I watched Old Boy and The Butterfly Effect for the first time on PSP UMD. Definitely the best way to watch a movie.
Wooow you just opened up a hidden memory from my childhood with bonks adventure lol
This is great. Looking forward to a Corvette tier list
im all in for Finn gaming content
Yo AirZonk on the Turbografx still hold up today! Super fun and the soundtrack was banging.
The edit at 34:50 had me dyin 😆 great job
Great video
Thanks!
I wouldn’t mind some more in depth thoughts about gaming from you from time to time.
I remember the OG PSP came with a demo disc with a Coheed and Cambria video in it.
I really enjoyed your opinions on games consoles even if I disagree with quite a few points you made. I like these style uploads though Finn good work.
Was not expecting this but I’m totally here for it! It’s refreshing to not have music content from time to time!
I'm probably a similar age (I'm 35)... and your list is pretty spot on! Playstation and SNES are my favorites of all time. And I agree with your "controversial" takes as well, like XBox and GameCube and stuff.
But the PS3 was KNOWN for their exclusives! Uncharted, Heavy Rain, Killzone, God of War, Resistance, Motorstorm, The Last of Us, Ratchet, Demon Souls, Infamous, Little Big Planet, Gran Turismo and Metal Gear Solid 4 to name a few. I'd say only the snes or ps1 comes close to the quality and amount of exclusive games. Respect for shouting out mg acid on psp though, a very interesting and fun take on the series not enough people talk about.
In my opinion the PSP and PS3 are the greatest game consoles of all time, ENORMOUS libraries of amazing exclusives and a beautiful ui with the XMB that made them far more than consoles, they were full blown media centres.
This kind of topics are really interesting to discuss. Not everything has to be music related.
PS3 Later in it's life had both GTA V and TLOU as exclusives, mega hits.
Really enjoyed this video. Any time you upload content about video games I will click fast. More like this please.
19:27 "Look at this monstrosity"
Yeah, AVGN also said it looks like the damn console is on life support.
The later iterations of the Xbox 360 after launch were much better quality wise. I own a black Xbox 360 was fucking great. My brother bricked it but It lasted me years
That boxing game on Dreamcast was legit.
Maniac Mansion was my favorite NES game and the gold cartridge Link game.
Oh the day's of "pfffffffffft" in the slot and cartridge lol
My ps3 ran for like 20 years straight. They built a tank. It's still going today
PS3 is the goat console.
Nothing beats the sound of a 360 fan going super saiyan while ripping through horde mode in gears of war
I saw project 86 open for POD at new earth coffee house in KC in 1999 and the opener was an unsigned chevelle.
Game cube was my best system. Middle school highschool gaming. Them the days. Still have my cube down in the basement ready.
I bought gamecube because of RE4 exclusive at the time and Twin Snakes. Plus it had Zelda, Metroid and REmake. I was really gone for a year into those games and it was my first non-pirated console. And it had probably best controller in the industry.
Tier list videos by Finn is S tier
Dude old console and even game night releases were the absolute best. I remember chillin hard in front of game stop for game releases.
Still have my Nintendo I got on Christmas like 88, my Sega,, Dreamcast, Saturn, and Super Nintendo. Still play them all to this day. Loved my PsP, Gameboy as well. Got so many headaches from the red blaring light of my virtualboy as well.
I believe there was a news segment years ago when the PSP came out where they referred to it as the “PlayStation Pornable”
This is cool to see as I had no idea you are so into games. It's sad you really missed out on the Xbox 360 though.
Where you got the Sega Genesis?
I kind of miss the the older videos from the main channel but this content is god tier
I still make the same type of videos on the main channel all the time!
