Just cast your vote and then leave a post as to why you like gaming on that particular platform. Don't make this a flame war, I'm just asking a simple question and I feel like this community is respectable enough to have an intelligent conversation without it blowing up into something its not, a fan boy war.

Personally, I love my PS3, but thats because I just got it about 2 weeks ago so who knows how I'll feel in another month. I think I'll continue to love it and cherish it like my own unborn child though. =P

I don't have a next gen console yet (lolpoor), so I'm still loving my PS2.

But once I get my hands on a 360..

I play mostly on my PC(not WoW :O), though I love me some old school and Wii :D EDIT: And PS2 due to poll edit XD

You could call me a PC Fanboy, though my PC is ancient (takes all it's got to run TF2 on med textures and i think i have it on low models) I have always believed the PC to be the Superior gaming platform over all.

Also, I've played 360 and find it to be a great console, I am in love with achievements (possibly my #1 reason to get a 360? >_>)

Ah, My apologies, let me add on the PS2 instead of Turbo Grafx =P I was just looking at the box I still have of that old system right here and put it down

There ya go. All set.

PC; it has a moouuuse, it has a moouuuuse, nanananaaaah!

p.s. and a keyboard!

p.p.s. and access to a real internet!

that pretty much sums it up.

XD

Cheers, Pandah.

PC is my weapon of choice.

Great controls, great graphics, huge amount of games, and MODS!

You'll realise you were better off with a Ps2.

Why on earth would you switch companies now?

Because nothing on the PS3 interests me? I'm keeping my PS2, which has all the PS games I want at the moment and I'm not going to fork out an extra few $100 for a Blu-Ray player I don't want. I prefer the 360 controllers and the console has titles I want.

Simple, really.

And what did you like on the Ps2 that you can't find continued on the Ps3 (and only the Ps3)?

What, you mean sequels? Nothing yet.

If something -does- come out on PS3 that I want, then tough cookies for me, because I'm not going to have money for it for a while after I get my 360.

The 360 has things I definitely want. The PS3 -could- have things that I want, but there's a low bloody chance of it.

I know my choice.

I'm sensing some fanboyish behavior... lets calm down guys lol stick to what you voted for any why, eh?

PC for me. Always have been, always will be.

Currently I've been gaming on the PC since I realized that not only do I have a computer that can handle it, but all the games that made me want to buy an Xbox360 are on the PC. So why bother gettinng the ring of death prone box of suck when I can just use my PC. And then have better controls with a mouse and keyboard.

My favorite console is the Wii. Yeah I know, the Wii, the console everyone else writes off as being for casual gamers and not having any good titles. Know what?

Fuck you.

On the Wii I have Mario Galaxy, LoZ:TP, Metroid 3 corruption, Okami, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and Super Paper Mario. Also I was able to go back and play the cube games I missed out on. As well as reclaim some old favorites from the N64.

On the Xbox 360 I would have played... Oblivion, and Bioshock. Both of which are on the PC. So fuck the xbox.

On the PS3... erm... Metal gear solid 4? Nothing else really appeals.

So in sheer number of titles I actually enjoy on a console the Wii trumps the other systems hands down. I don't go in for shooters so Gears of War, Resistance and the like hold no appeal for me. I can only shoot so many aliens before it starts to blend together into one giant mass of failure.

So yeah, PC and Wii.

Limos:

So yeah, PC and Wii.

I have to agree just about 100% lol

Though a couple of the shooters do appeal to me for the 360, they're going to be on PC eventually if they aren't already. And not to mention that the 360 title that appealed to me the most, Dead Rising, is coming to Wii! WOO!

I mostly use the Xbox 360. I also use the PC a bit but I'm really not that great with computers. I strongly dislike Playstations, but I don't really have any good reasons for it.

At the moment not the 360. Maria contracted the deadly red rings of fury and is now sitting in a box, waiting to be sent for repairs. I suppose the answer is the PC then.

Pen and paper all the way!
Software is inherently a static medium, as it cannot (yet) respond to anything outside its preprogrammed parameters. With people, though, you're always surprised.

Mostly 360, but I also play the NES and Playstation(PSone) and the Wii, but only when people are over. The Wii is terrible with most single player games in my opinion.

PC ftw. Keyboard, mouse, 1920x1200 resolution, gaming on my couch, multimedia centre. There's nothing it can't do. (Nothing, not even that is beyond it)

i just like the ability to pick up and play a console game. almost like its as easy to pick up a book. no need for a multifaceted control scheme like many pc games i own, plus you dont need to constantly upgrade my computer so that it can barely run crysis... i want to play it so bad but i dont have the money... sadz.....

360 for me. My PC sucks, and I've just don't play that much DS/PSP at the moment.

I usually play my Xbox 360 quite a bit. Though, I've gone back to my PS2 to finish of Prince of Persia, and it's great.

I can jump on my 360 anytime and always enjoy myself but i still miss my Gameboy, old graphics but still better than the psp.

ps3 all the way

PC, for the greater flexibility, capability and customisability.

Oh, and the implied larger-penis-due-to-spending-more-money. Because that's the correlation - the more you spend, the bigger your dick.

Just ask anyone who drives an SUV.

My PS2. I have a 360, but I still prefer my PS2. Besides, there are still some games on it that I haven't played.

360 hands down, not since the ps2 have i put so much time into one games console, the wii, whilst fun, really does wear thin, and the ps3 just seems like and updated ps2 with some psp functions added in, there both good, but i just think, for me, the 360 games appeal to me more, good as mario galaxy is, or nerdy as eye of judgement is, theres jsut...i dunno, consistently less shite on the 360.

army of two withstanding of course.

360 for me at the moment (even if it is in for repairs for the 3 lights of injustice)

Quick question as well; why isn't the Wii in the poll?

Not really. Who on this site would use a Wii as their main?
