I chose PC even though i prefer PS3 because PC has much more future potential also other posters dont feel the way you say either, using Knight Templar as an example:

Knight Templar:
I would save the PS3, I'd rather play the 360 but I couldn't let something like the PS3 just die, even if I don't really like most of its games.

Have some faith people will put some thought into such a drastically life changing decision. Gaming is important to people, if they care people will put some thought into a decision.

I refuse to live in a world without Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Lylat Wars, The Ocarina of time, Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart 64, Mario 64, conker's BFD, F-Zero X, Wave Race 64, Mario Tennis or Rogue Squadron.

Goldeneye was a lie!

Yes, you are correct!

PC period.

why you ask?

Emulators

This is my choice. I also can get my PC to print me out pizza and make me coffee, if this was a survival situation.

Do what I did and make an adventure out of it!

"Sir Compy! The Ravager aliens are attacking the Playstation base! We're out of Wii-jectiles at the Wii base!"

"Fire all Blu-ray discs immediately! Nobody dies on my built-in watch! Send the 360 people to the Wiis, the PS3s can handle themselves, I know it! "

"The 360s have been flanked by the Zombine Ninjas!"

"What?!?!? Who's the commander of the Zombine Ninjas?"

"Knight Dell and Alien Ware-ior sir."

"Damn them....damn them all..."

To be continued...

Nice way to differently word a "What's your favorite console" thread.

SNES surely. Unless we are only talking current gen in which I would have to say 360.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

PS2, since it has most of my favorite games ever.
Xbox 360 from this generation.

Which generation. One that's currently producing games? PS2.
Any generation? I have no idea.

I would save MY PS3, because it's the most backwards compatible with an emotion chip. Sorry folks, but the good times are bearing the Sony brand in my tent.

That would be a very hard decision to make, but I think I would have to go with the SNES. It's the console that I find myself revisiting most often and it has an excellent library of games like Super Mario World, Tetris Attack, Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Chrono Trigger, Star Fox, and so many more.

save the PC then me thinks, since i'm guessing it counts. Surely no one could live without one, and thats before gaming is concerned

If all gaming systems were going to be destroyed and you could only save one, why wouldn't you save computers!?
Imagine a world without them, we'd be screwed!
Plus, we can just re-engineer consoles again from the PC base, like the first time around.

If we counted the computer, then we'd also have to count the mobile phone, the TV, and so on. A console is really a device designed primarily for gaming, something that I highly doubt anyone could say was the computers purpose.

Well.. I could certainly point out some times in my life where the main purpose of my PC was for gaming.

Yours, not all.

I could use my computer to beat a man to death, yet that still wouldn't make it a weapon.

PS2. Enough (great) games to last a lifetime, and I refuse to count the PC as a "console".

Agreed (about the PC not being a console. I still don't think the PS2 is the greatest).
The PC is a console just like Catholics are Christian.

Oh, this is simple. PC obviously =p

PC for the win!

I don't think all the console games since the history of console games combined could outnumber PC games or all the things that come with it.

Well, since PC isn't a console, and many games for old systems can be emulated, and many newer games are for both consoles and PCs, I'd say Wii just so we could have a little variety, even if it isn't exactly GOOD variety.

I mean, think about it... what hit game over the past year wasn't also for PC? Only one that comes to mind would be LBP and that wasn't exactly a BIG hit.

... Yeah I'm expecting to be proven wrong on that, though. Go ahead. =P

First poster... tut tut tut, a ripoff of COD4 by idiots and a WW2 ripoff at that. Shame on you! Personally I would have to save the Sega Mega with the classic Mario just to peeve everybody else off.

I'd save whichever one that could play the civilization series, if pressed.

I would save the SNES and as many titles as possible. SNES is and always will be the best console ever.

Some people are saying PC, but the question was "which console?" So I don't reckon it counts. It's also cheating.

If it did count, I would bring my pc. That's all I play lately since the ps3 is a paperweight and all of the good XBOX 360 titles are released on PC anyway. Also, emulators make the PC into any console you want. That's why it's cheating.
