Its not necessarily about telling the difference. Some people just try to sound knowledgable. I'm sure we have all done it.

I mean lets face it, you could put a Dreamcast under your TV and some people would call it a playstation. So is it really surprising you could be playing Gradius and someone saying "is that R-type?"

yeah, dude but when Gradius catches on as a given name we'll talk again (i.e. when i have children

).

just kidding, i'll totally go for Victor "Viper" Harriger. ^_^

That's not bad IMO, I was playing Progear and people said PlayStation.

Well, I guess that got somthing to do with how I hook up my CPS2 Progear...
