Obviously, real games are better. You can play them whenever you want (meaning away from the computer), as well as many other benefits, such as having the manual and such.On the other hand, ROMs benefit from the features of the emulator and, more importantly, are free. :D

If they're old old games that you probably can't find consoles for anyways, then yes, I prefer ROMS. However, consoles are just so much cooler.

i would have to say i like roms better, because when you play them you can use features like save position, etc, for tricky parts of the game so you can redo the one hard spot without have to turn the system off, and reload everything. also... its free

ROMS win, you get everything for free, and if you have a laptop you can take 'em anywhere.

Real items will give the better gamefeel but ROMS just gives you funs and no more than that. But ROMS gives the convient to us more than the real items.

ROMS BY FAR ARE BEST CUZ TEHY ARE FUN!!! lol (+3h sum 0f c*m 1z 0c+0r0ck)POINTS were deducted for this post by Malin-Please refer to the forum rules to find out why your points were deducted.

Yeah but ROMs kinda hurt the economy. The makers dont get all the cash they need to, so a good game might get low revenue, and it might not pave way to a sequel.

ROMs have no special features whatsoever. The emulator however, does.But I'm going with ROMs. Who doesn't like a free game?

I have to agree on roms b/c if it's free it's for me

well some games are better on the console because you need the controller in order to play properly but most are just as good on roms.however when having a party you generally want the console and not the rom...guitar hero on rom...hmmm:)

Yeah I like ROMs because they're free, but if I could get real games for free, then I would play those instead.

It's kinda weird cause with the real thing you get that real life experience, having to hold the controller in your hand, but on the other hand roms are about the same since you can just use a controller with your pc, so I guess I preffer roms.

Well if its a game you can't get anymore, like and oldie, then obviously roms. Sometimes, though, the expierience is much better with the original version.

I prefer putting ROMs onto a Flash Cart, because you get the feel of the real thing without having to pay for it. ^_^

still the real thing is better i think

Only advantage I've been able to find that ROMs have over real games so far is its a helluva lot easier to use cheats. Real Games still pwn in graphics, and w/ the PS2 and Xbox, speed.

I also prefer the real thing, because I like to use a controller rather than a keyboard. But ROMs are nice to have as backup files or if you don't happen to have the game with you.
