I like Nintendo because of their dedication to providing quality first party titles every year.

This year I got Punch-Out!!, Wii Sports Resort, and will get New Super Mario Bros.

Next year I get Metroid: Other M, Super Mario Galaxy 2, and who knows what else!

The DS because it has a lot of games I like, is small, has a great screen, built-in screen protector (clamshell design), and fits easily into my pocket, and is easy to relax with after a long, treacherous work day.

I like my systems because they offer the largest variety of games, are near 100% backwards compatible, and they have the most AAAe of any of the systems currently available.

I own all 3. I prefer 360 simply to support the home team. I'm an American. I like the PS3 I have because I saved enough cash up to get a BC one. A lot of PS2 games to enjoy still, and great PS3 titles. I like the Wii because there is something to be said about Nintendo's first party games. The only word I can think of is magical.

Halo__Reach
Well the only next-gen console I own is the 360, and I like it purely for its online capabilities, and playing games with all my friends with 360's while enjoying the best multiplayer games available on consoles, something the PS3 lacks severely, in my opinion, and circumstances. However, when it comes down to actual alone-time gaming, I prefer the PC for the total gaming experience. Could have sworn there was a similar thread like this today :lol:

I used to have a 360 and I USED to think it was the best thing to ever happen until it broke and then I got a PS3 because I knew it probably wouldnt break, it was starting to get some decent games and the most important reason why i got was because it was SHINY:shock:

No hassle. I can toss in a game and play, kick back on my couch with a gamepad that's guaranteed to work with every single game, easily chat or play as a group with friends, have local multiplayer with just a few extra gamepads, etc.. Rock Band and Guitar Hero are a nice added bonus.

I prefer the 360 because its software is very well thought out. Everything from its interface to the achievements to its connectivity with Xbox.com and the functionality baked into Xbox Live.... it's all focused on community. It IS a social network in ways that people just don't get yet.

Taking from the console side of things, the hardware is predominantly standard, as are its features. Yet it has western sensibilities reminiscent of PC gaming.

Wii: -Nintendo's franchises -Good Sonic games (yes, I'm one of "those people") -Price -Pointer and IR controls add a lot when done right -Free online -Fully backwards compatible DS: -Best library this generation. Period. -Cheapest platform this generation. -Touch screen and mic are underrated innovations this generation. -Free online. -Backwards compatible. PSP: -Good library. -Cheaper than home consoles. -Multimedia features.

I personally prefer the PS3 as I do not count PCs or Macs as a console since they have almost too many uses. I also have a Wii and Xbox 360 so I can quickly explain my likes and dislikes of each console. I enjoy the Playstation 3 due to the fact that the controller fits my hands nicely since the 360's controller has everything all over the place like the analog sticks and battery pack in my opinion adds unnecessary bulk to the controller and causes my hands to cramp up as a result. The 360's online features also leave something to be desired as I rarely ever go online and I end up having to pay for something I don't even use 1/5 of the time, and with the PS3 all I have to pay for is internet from Comcast and a ****** router. Better yet is that I can watch both DVDs and Blu-Ray Discs for the price of one console. Besides these simple things and fairly minor details the PS3 and 360 are sort of like cousins in terms of graphics and games as they both offer absolutely amazing gameplay opposed to the Wii which I consider to be a huge flop as it can talk the walk but can't walk the talk.

I wouldn't go as far as to say it's the only fun system in the last decade, but overall every system before this gen has been pretty superior to this gen imo, so it's pretty easy to find more enjoyment in older systems than new ones.

I like my PS3 because my personal favorite devs work on it exclusively. Insomniac, Naughty Dog, and Sucker Punch all have their extraordinary exclusives. If Ratchet and Uncharted were on the Wii that would be my favorite. Free online and a web browser (I'm using it now) are also HUGE pluses. It also has a nice variety in games Killzone 2, inFamous, Heavenly Sword, Ratchet, and LBP all have a different idea and feel that makes them unique (well KZ and Halo, oh and inFamous and Crackdown... whatever). Thats why I like my PS3.

Ps2: +++++

Probably the most reliable console ever made, I know tons of people that have original ps2 that still work to this date, that being without any maintenance.

The dual shock 1, was the best controller ever it had what modern ps controllers lack. VIBRATION! and a little weight!

Biggest game library to date, pc aside.

Silent.

Cool.

Ps1: ++++

A good console, badly outdated though.

Ps3: +++

Have gotten 4 controls for this consol and all of them are broken. They just break and break and break. I'm no more violent with my ps3 controls than I am with my 360 or ps2 controls yet they seem to be able to take the punishment unlike these... minus for that.

Loud. -

Overheats easily. -

Expensive. -

Free online gaming. +++

Xbox360: +++

Has alot of hardware issues, my xbox 360 has recently broken, minus for that, I don't know anyone who's had a 360 for more than two years without some sort of malfunction so. So I guess it's a very unreliable console. Huge minus for that.

Loud.

Has enormous performance, I'd even dare say the 360 performs better than the ps3, at least up to date. I made a test as I had a copy of fightnight 3 for the 360, I went and bought one for the ps3 as well.

The game performed far better on the 360, loading times were more than twise as fast, the visuals were sharper and there were some features on the 360 that seemed to be left out on the ps3 version, as for blood being static on the ps3version it actually runs and trickles on the 360 version.

I did the same thing with GTA and I'd say that games both looks and performs slightly better on the 360 as well. Odd I'd considering the ps3 is supposed to be the more advanced of the two.

Live has nice features but is too expensive. +-

Console is pricey, but not that very expensive. +

Overheats easily. -

+ for shaking controls, - for size, they could have been made slightly more compact for better comfort.

Pc: +++++

Very expensive ---

Are as reliable as you are. +++

Can be costumized to be however you want it to be.

And the winner is: THE PC!

FANBOY OI!

I like the PS3 because it's three systems in one.PS library + PS2 library + PS3 library + (BLu Ray and Free online)=Entertainment Overload.
