I'm going to continue with my PC, and pick up a 3DS. Don't really care about the watered-down PC (aka consoles) anymore. Might get a Wii next gen if it's really cheap then. I do want to play that new Donkey Kong and Rayman game coming out.

I'll have to see the cost of each system, and more importantly the game and features of the console.

I'll be sticking with the 720 for most of next gen, solely due to me finishing up university and liv9ing with my GF. I may pick up the other systems later in the gen though.

i'll just get whatever but i'll probably get sony's console first considering its got a decent price and this gen doesnt just finish abruptly and i can survive off a load of games from this gen to tide me for a year and a bit till i decide to take a plunge.

but probably by then i'll be at uni,in a job, or touring (hopefully if i ever get a band off the ground apart from local gigs nd that), or in the RAF xD then i would have no time for games lol.

As things stand now I'd probably lean towards Sony, but only just (and obviously, things will likely change once we actually, y'know, know something about the PS4/Xbox 3/Wii 2).

Well a lot is going to depend on the prices, but I will probably end up owning all 3 like I did this generation. The only one I am iffy about is the Wii2, if it's not in HD then it's not for me.

Either that or I will just return to PC gaming exclusively.

Well, since I'm an actual passionate gamer and not an internet fanboy, I own all current gen systems and will continue to purchase and support all platforms. Sorry if you're 15 or something and can't afford multiple systems

I always own every console each generation so, that will continue. I may wait a couple years on the next X-box though as I doubt they'll have many exclusives for awhile after launch.

:roll: I love those pointless jibes at folk who don't own all systems. Why even bother to post that sort of thing?

Anyway, it probably depends on the price but I'll pick between Sony and MS, and just stick with the one console. I never saw the point in shelling out several hundred pounds/dollars for an extra console because it has a handful of exclusives that your other console doesn't have.

Maybe I'm just not an "actual passionate gamer" :lol:

Not interested in another console ill stick with the PC. I wasted money on both a 360 and a PS3 and hardly ever played them.

Edit:I will be buying a 3DS for my missis though.

So that makes you, what? Sixteen with a part-time job (or no job and simply had your parents buy you your consoles), no responsibilities and too much free time? Because most people will *never* get their money's worth out of owning multiple consoles (and I say this as someone who does own all three).

I'll stick with Sony and Ninty unless Microsoft does something really spectacular. I just don't see that happening.

Sony are the safest option judging by the course of this gen. I'm 98% likely to get the 720 unless MS completely pull a Nintendo. I think they'll keep a good balance. If I go with Nintendo again it'll probably be the tertiary option just as the Wii is for me currently. Whatever I go for, no ****ing launch models.

Most likely I'm sticking with Sony. Though recently I've been wanting a Wii specially since they have it in black now. But my PS3 has been slowly collecting dust now since I'm always on my PC...

I will likely stick with MS because I expect the pc to fall even farther in the next few years as more pc exclusives are designed around laptops and online play.

If games like Fallout Vegas and the next Deus Ex were built around the pc I would go back but.....they aren't.

the last time i "switched" consoles was from the Genesis to the Playstation, and that was largely because the Saturn cost more and was a disappointment at the time

otherwise i've been a PC gamer since 1992, and i own all 3 consoles this gen (i liked all 3 consoles last gen as well)

so brand loyalty has about as much consequence to me as toothbrush brand loyalty

This generation I prefer the PS3 with the Wii followed behind. Why do I prefer those two consoles over the Xbox 360? simply because I find their library of games most intriguing. Now when next-gen comes around, I guess my main driving force will lead towards the console that looks the most intriguing and has the most interesting lineup of games. If I was a fanboy, I would blatantly say I would go with the PS4 and Wii 2.0 - but I'm not - because I can't decide yet because I know literally nothing about any of the big three's future consoles yet. Anything can happen from now till the day the consoles are released, and it's not something I could possibly decide right now.

The two biggest factors for me are the pricetag and (mainly exclusive) games. All 3 consoles this gen have great exclusives, so it could go either way for me next gen. I would never buy consoles at launch because of the limited selection of games and the introduction of different SKUs this gen with the exception being the Wii.

I will not switch. I will buy whatever system that i support. Ms this generation has changed their ways and became almost arrogant. I just dont like how they treat dev's and consumers. I will continue with Sony and Nintendo until MS goes back to their former self. The original Xbox was great, but thats where the Xbox died.

I am but I won't buy any of them until a year later, I hope.

edit: oops read it wrong. I already have all three, so I can't switch but if they have new competitors, I'll be gladly to accept them next gen.

Sony has around 20 first party studios so, PS4 for sure! No matter what you know that there will be games and my second console? It all depend if Sega makes a comeback or not cus it'll be between Wii2 or Dreamcast 2.

Peole that has PS3 and X360 just like to wastes money cus both consoles are basically the same and I predict that next gen will be the same.

Not at all, they both of fantastic exclusives that make each console a worthy purchase.

Can you not be happy only owning one console? If you're an informed consumer I'm pretty sure you'd be capable of picking out one console that will give you the most bang for your buck, and I'm sure lots of people here do that. If you want more systems that's fine, but there's more than enough games on any one system to satisfy someone.
