My vote is for PS3, since I only play games for RPGs, the Final Fantasy series is all it needs to sell it to me.

I`ve been thinking of getting a new console for a while now.

Nintendo , definetly not. I loathe nintendo stuff with a passion. I got a DS basically on listening to a friend who is a nintendo junkie who assured me it would be worth it. It was a crock of sh*t , nothing but those horrible cutesy kids games that pollute everything nintendo do.In the end I sold it to my sister & bought a psp.Nintendo are gonna have to do a hell of a lot to impress me for me to buy a wii. And then theres that stupid name too.

I`m tempted to get a Playstation 3 but what worries me is that they seem to be rushing to get it out.Sony are losing loads of exclusive contracts to xbox because it`s not out yet and while it`s not out Sony are losing money.I just get the feeling that it`ll be rushed out & there will be sh*tloads of problems with it.

As for the xbox 360 everybody who I know has bought one has had problems with it.To be honest I wasn`t all that impressed with the original xbox. There didn`t seem to me to be a very good selection of games.All the games seemed to be either sports sims , movie tie ins or role play.Hardly any originality at all.

What i`m going to do is wait & see what the Playstation 3 is like , if it`s any good i`ll get that.Sony consoles seem to have a good selection of games & I always found the playstation much more usable than I ever found my Xbox.
If it`s no good i`ll get a discounted 360 , they`re bound to drop the price when the ps3 comes out.

Well, it does seem that Sony is rushing to get their PS3 out, but it is understandable.
XBOX 360 was released quite a while ago, and a lot of people are just impatient. They want a next-gen console right now, and may end up purchasing and XBOX 360 if Sony doesn't hurry.
Aside from that, I think the PS3 will be miles better than the other two systems, their graphics processor has 2x the capabilities that XBOX's has, and, Playstation has consistantly better games than xbox, namely the Final Fantasy series ;) as well as any other game that Square puts out, whom I have rarely been let down by.
The Wii, in my opinion, is ridiculous. I don't want to get up and perform Eddie Gordo combos at 3 in the morning, or have a tennis match in my living room. I want to half-heartadly press buttons with one eye open, not act out the actions I want to perform in the video game.

Wii

hands down.

The PS3 photo confuses me, I cant work out what the hell it really looks like. But the PS series has always been top of the food chain for me.

I'm with Urban on the Nintendo thing, in that I've never liked Nintendo.

XBOX is a double edged sword, I think they've definitely improved the range and quality of games over the few years they've been around, but if they've still got that queer controller I don't want to know about it.

PS3, i have loyalty credit @the store....

plus all i have are PS2 games

don't like nintendo all i think about is mario, zelda, and pokemon when it come to them

Xbox, has problems because of its early release, at the rate i play some games i'll fry it out in a week

Theres a problem with the PS3, when it comes out in novmber(i believe), it is supposed to cost any where from $500 for a 20GB model, or $600 for the 60GB model, from what i seen its going to be worth it, you will be able to play PS1,PS2 disks on it, dvds, hold pictures, and the controller set up is pretty much the same, and there is supposed to be away to play with up to seven controllers on one system, i think its with the wireless.

ask for nintendo, the NES and Super Nes were good but the other kinda sucked, xbox has halo and fable, those are th main reason i like the xbox

The XBOX has come a long way in my opinion but SOny has always been good for making great gaming consoles. But the PS3 will probably cost anyone a small fortune which won't be too much of a setback since people loves vid games and will find some way to own one.
As for the Wii, I don't know. I suspect it'll do nicely and any avid gamer will probably buy one just so they can have it. That sorta thing.

And I really wanna vote for the PS3 but I can see it having some probs if it has the same overheating problems as any of its previous consoles. But this too can probably be avoided if you have a solution for it. (I know several people that made their own make shifts console coolers)

And since I'll probably never completely get over my distrust of the XBOX. . . well then it's settled. I'm voting PS3. :)

I doubt I'll get one, though my brother might, but if I had to pick I'd probably go for the PS3 even though I hear they're cutting back on features to try to release it, and of course, it's going to cost a small fortune. Personally, I'd rather just upgrade my PC. The PS3 will support next-gen media storage though, which is nice, since I understand blu-ray players will cost upwards of 1000 dollars.

Wii's meant to be absolutely awesome

Amen bro'

I'll dust down my gameboy and play Tetris. S'all good.

The Wii is such a stupid idea honestly.
People are going to look like the biggest fools playing it.

I had an xbox, was alright but past Live there was nothing.
What the **** is the Wii? Whose going to buy that?!
And everybody will probably buy the PS3. End of.

Ps3

I know which I'm buying.

if i was to buy one, it'll be the xbox 360, i like the controller better than the playstation one.

at least wii players won't get as fat as xbox or ps3 players

looking stupid but having a lot of fun. I think when it comes down to it, I really don't give a ****. Fun trumps all so fuk X [] and ps3 is wayyyy too spensive. wii all the way!!

This is a BAD thing?

Right now I hardly play my 360, so it's currently sitting in my dad's office at work. Right now the library of games for it is pretty shallow, which is the only real problem I had with the first Xbox. The few good console exclusives that the 360 has can be found on PC, which I prefer. As for the Wii, I'm told by friends who've played it that the controller is very easy to use and you don't look "ridiculous" when you do it. Despite it's lack of third-party support (like all Nintendo consoles), Nintendo consoles continue to be some of the best around. It may not sell as much as the 360 or the PS3, but in the long run the sheer quality and quantity of it's good games are worth it alone. I'll definitely be getting a PS3. It's pretty much guaranteed a great game library, graphics, support, etc. It's going to be easily worth the price and the wait for it.

Nintendo games are for 5 year olds.

Why do you hate fun? :confused:

But, Nintendo is fun.

Nintendo ftw!

I want a wii so everyone will want to come to my house and play with my wii then me and my friends can have wii parties and play with eachother's peni....i mean wii's.


But really the wii is cheaper, different, and I'd love to have a SNES and NES downloaded to it :D

Because Nintendo sucks, and endlessy produces the same crappy game, that I couldn't give two ****s about, If there going to make a game with a puzzle they should at least make the puzzzle harder than a maze featured on the back of a mcdonalds barf bag.

Oi TDOC stfu:( Nintendo produced one of the best games I have ever played and that is Conker's Bad Fur Day... That was one friggin awesome game

Nintendo made Zelda, therefore they have my utmost respect. If i sound like a 5 year old, **** it.

Nintendo ALSO made super smash bros any of you guys bag that game... BURN IN HELL

SUPER SMASH BROS!!!!

Hands down, best game ever.

Nintendo do produce more than just Mario and Pokemon ... Not to mention that there are cross console games, and a few good shooters.

F@ck super smash brothers

I have no intention of getting any of those anytime soon, because I lack the funding. But i've always loved nintendo games and their great repetitiveness so if i get one it will be the wii just so I can play mario party 58.

Since I'm about equal to a God at RPG's LOL (cocky), I'm going to go with RabidSeaTurtles and say PS3.

I wish they would make another Final Fantasy like 7.

The Wii's shooters > everyone else's

You can actually point and shoot. No silly analog sticks for that. And it just..owns and is cheaper. I would love to get a PS3 as well but if it's a tie between the two I'd take a Wii with extra controllers and some games over a basic PS3

Old Capcom shooters> any damn game.

Yeah! PS3! Check out the graphics on that ... rhino ...

Obviously the games that come out along with the release of PS3 are not going to be the best that PS3 can offer.
Isn't that a trend? Look at a game like Summoner, and then compare that with the graphics from FFX.
