I think that anyone who really enjoys gaming and isn't a stupid fucking moron, shouldn't care less about the consoles beyond wanting to know what you're really buying, and get them based on what games you want.

Other than that, although you can keep track of which console is selling best how could you measure how much is getting the most enjoyment or which has the best games. Why would you care about the hardware of the console if the games you want are on other consoles? It's all based on opinion, which is why arguments about 'which console is the best' are pointless and futile.


I've got a 360. Not because I'm in love with Microsoft, and not because I dislike Nintendo or Sony.

And hell, in a few months I could buy a Wii or ps3 if I really wanted too.


In conclusion, this topic pops up absolutely everywhere, leads nowhere, and is equally pointless here.

The main reason I prefer the Wii is because Wiis are cheaper. And Zelda.

All the next-gen consoles have let me down personally...

I agree as well. The Playstation 3 was the biggest disappointment to me, with the wii in a close second; and the only reason I prefer the 360 is because it's been out longer so has a few more games. But even with that extra year of boost it had, it's still shit so far.

I'd get a Wii, but there's a shortage. There aren't really any games for core gamers. What real game is there? Everything looks like a demo. Super Paper Mario? Isn't that it? Red Steel maybe? SSBB? I think it's a good concept but Nintendo is promoting it towards casual gamers and non gamers. I want one, but I can't get one. People who don't know what it is are the ones who have it.

Red Steel is decent. Its not nearly as bad as its made out to be by most, but not close to the original hype either. Zelda's great, but still overrated. Its easy, like always, my only real complaint is the game turns into a dungeon run after the third dungeon. Super Paper Mario is really good,albiet short. That and Trauma Center are my two favorite Wii games.

The Wii launchis just like the DS(except with Zelda), a few good games near launch then almost nothing will come out until near the end of the year.

Eh.,Wouldn't call them huge or anything. No more than the other paper mario games. Nothing like Golden Sun or anything.

Yeah, on the commercials... All the PS3 is good for is for being a novelty over-sized coffee table. The graphics for the games I saw were the same as the graphics of most new PS2 games.

As a pure gaming console, 360 is the best - well for me anyway.

It hs the best games available, and up and coming. Gears Of War is the finest game on any of the next-gen consoles atm and looks like it will still be until it is eventually beaten by halo 3.

Nothing of the other 2 consoles compares to the experience of playing Gears Of War on xbox live.
