I own a ps3 and a PC, truth be told I rarely actually play my PS3 anymore but it was worth getting it for Uncharted 2, LBP and wipeout 64 and demos that never hit PC. If anything its made me realise how much more I like PC gaming. I looked at the 360 but considered the PS3 will a)sell better over the long term b)become lead platform c)has more console exclusives (pc sometimes gets 360 games) and d)MS sucks There is no game that I would get on PS3 if there is a PC version coming. I prefer the controls, the graphics and the whole PC setup. I waited on Ass Creed 2 and DiRT 2 on PC and will continue to do so in the future.

My PS3 is indistinguishable from a pile of dust.(LOL)

I used it around 2 months ago and will use it again for RDR.

I own the PS2, dreamcast, sega genesis, and n64. Aside from sometimes playing dreamcast I don't really play them anymore. I'm keeping up with PC gaming though, thanks to my wonderful rig. :) If I had the money I would probably buy a ps3 but I spent it all on my gaming rig.

PC, DS and Xbox... original xbox. Sometimes I wish I had a 360 to play the exclusives or play with my friends and family.

I play PC games all the time but I also have a PS3, Xbox 360 and a Wii. I play on all of those systems, but I'm addicted to Team Fortress 2 and GTA IV (PC) right now so I play more PC.

I have a Gamecube, a Wii, a DS, and a GBA SP. None of which get much play time. My favorite is the Gamecube, my first console.

I am 95%ish a PC gamer, but I do own a PS3 and a Wii. I rarely play the Wii (only those few occasions that a family member wants to play Wii Sports Resort) and the PS3 is only for exclusives such as Heavy Rain, Uncharted 2, etc... and for games that I'm on the fence about. If I cannot find a PC/console demo for a game, then I will rent it from Gamefly and try it out that way before purchasing. I hope this helps, basically, only get a console (really the PS3 is the only good option due to the exclusives that it has) if you must play the exclusives that system offers.

Desktop PC only.

I like to play flight and naval sims as well as grognardy type wargames and a Desktop PC is really the only system out there that make this possible. A laptop would be pointless once I attach my joystick, throttle, pedals, and TrackIR unit to it. Console controllers are just too limited to make the types of games I enjoy playable without an extremely cumbersome onscreen interface.

we all sound like fan boys. I'm a ex console exclusive gamer, till i purchased a really weak pc and discovered half life 2 years ago. I then made it my mission to learn how to put a pc together and piece by piece build a acceptable pc. i upgraded my cpu (i could have purchased a Q6600 for the same price as this cpu i have) to something thats good enough to play most games on high. i rather put my money into pc upgrading than buying a console, though i said ill be going a wii.

I've played with the thought of buying myself a PS3 for nearly a year now, but then I think about it and still come to the conclusion: What for?

Maybe he likes 360 exclusives more? Opinions, man. I'm a PC and DS gamer and I'm thinking about getting a PSP. For a long time I thought PS3 + PC was the best combo but like a lot of other posters have said, the only real purpose of the PS3 is for exclusives and blu-rays and I didn't care for a lot of the exclusives and I don't watch blu rays. I have always stuck with my PC throughout the last two generations that I've been a gamer and it is by far the most appealing main game platform for me.

I also own a pc and want to get a 360 - because of out all of the consoles the 360 has thebestmultiplayer community (unless you live in Japan) and I am also a fan of games such as Halo 3 and RDR when it getsreleased. Havinga solid multiplayer experienceis more important to me than a higher number of exclusives you'll play once then toss in the garbage bin or leave on the shelf collecting dust after you beat them. There are many games you can play on consoles that you can't on the PC - so the 360 is a perfectly valid choice when it comes to supplementing your PC gaming experience (plus I'd much rather use a controller than a mousewhen it comes tomultiplayer shooters).

I have three computers and all my wifes' needs is a better video card to get up to speed. I also have a 360 which is useful for parties and exclusives. Was looking at Alan Wake and Red Dead but we'll see. If I was reading the price right @ the GS review for AW it was $80.00 US. Definite buzz kill.

I currently own and use:

- Playstation 3 with full backwards compatibility (so I can play some PS2 games, and I do)

- Xbox (original because the 360 emulation sucks)

- Xbox 360 elite (most of the AAA titles that come out, I choose this platform for)

- Nintendo DS (to get my occasional RPG fix when there's nothing else out)

- iPhone for gaming (mainly RPGs / roguelikes)

- PC gaming rig connected to my HDTV for those RPGs / rare games I can't play on console

Before the 360 I was primarily a PC gamer. DRM pushed me away from AAA titles towards consoles. I like owning my own game and being able to trade used and consoles are great for this. I enjoy buying used / selling games and save quite a bit of cash in the process. I also prefer to use a wireless controller because it's more confortable on a couch than a keyboard and mouse, although I do game with keyboard/mouse (wireless) on my couch with the use of a sort of laptable dealio.

Yup. PC, Wii, PS3 still have my DS and PSP also but I rarely play either of my handhelds anymore. I had a 360 but then I came to the realization that I didn't need a high grade PC and a Xbox 360.

PC is what I usually play. I have a PS3, but I only play that for exclusives, or games that control better, or have nasty DRM.

Everything except a DS. I'll play Halo 3, soon to be Halo: Reach on Xbox 360 and play with friends. I liked some of the ps3 exclusives and I move around so being able to stuff the ps3 in a duffle bag is convenient. Pretty much anything available on pc I get on pc, with the exception being co-op games like Kane & Lynch.

I sold a lot of my consoles.

Currentely I have the PS3 (but I also have PS2 and PS1 games). Oh and I also own a Wii as well as a Dreamcast. I've had a lot of consoles in the past... PS2, PS1, GameCube, Nintendo 64, some old ass Sega system I can't even remember which one. But yeah that's about all the consoles I've ever owned. I am also planning on rebuying a PS2 in case my PS3 ends up dying or something, so I have a spare for all my PS2 and PS1 games.
