Sorry, gotta disagree here.  We've got both set up in the store I work
at, and the PSX blows the Saturn away.  Toh Shin Den makes Virtua
Fighters look like paper cut outs.  The video for Street Fighter-Movie
is also smoother and clearer than the Saturn.  It could be bad code,
but everyone that comes in is noticing the difference between the
systems.  We've already had two people trade in their Saturns on PSX
pre-sells.  

Arcade games?  Check out NBA Jam TE, Ridge Racer, Tekken...
