IGN mentions how awesome the Saturn is.

Well it looks like IGN is getting into Saturnalia as well.

Check out #6 in the Wednesday 10: Smug Hardcore Gamer Quotes.

""I suppose I can see why you believe the PlayStation is a better machine than the Saturn, just as I can see why some people prefer 'Annie Hall' over 'Manhattan.' They've been told to. But the Saturn outpaces the PlayStation's 2D capabilities, which allowed developers not intoxicated by Sony's marketing to craft real games for, well, real gamers. Have you experienced the Japan-only Vampire Savior that required the RAM cartridge? All the evidence you need is in the animation for Morrigan's Darkness Illusion Flattener. Actually, I would go so far as to say hardcore gaming died with the Saturn." Levi Buchanan IGN

Of course this quote can be taken in the context that IGN is poking a little fun at us hardcore Sega Saturn fans...

...but come on the Saturn's 2D performance is so excellent that can't possibly be the case! Any gamer worth his or her salt knows that. This obviously a direct nod to how wonderful the Sega Saturn is hidden in an article making fun of other people's pretentious gaming views.

I mean come on, real gamers know how cool the Saturn is right?

The month of Saturn marches on!
