Everytime I'mon the PS3 forum, I see more and more people posting questions about the PS3 because they say they plan on buying one some time soon.

I'm satisfied with just having a PS3 (I paid 600 for the 60gb), but do any of you plan onor want to get one of the 'other' the systems sometime down the line? You know, like the 'other' console owners wanting a PS3 now.

I have a PS3 as my main console. I then bought a Wii on a splurge. The PS3 gets played all the time, Wii not as much. I'll play the Wii a lot next month though with super mario galaxy coming out. I like the games that the 360 has but the thing about it for me is that the big games that I want to play there I can buy on PC at a later date such as Halo 3, Gears of War, or Bioshock. Plus I don't want to pay money for a seemingly unreliable system. If you can afford more than one, go for it! Otherwise you'll be missing out.

I bought a Wii early on but I'm 90% sure I'm going to sell it. I won't buy a console-that-must-not-be-named until they stop charging for online play. Until then I'm satisfied with the free (and easily-arguably better) PSN.

PS3 keeps me entertained.

Oh, okay. Just wondering. Something told me getting a PS3 would be better off in the long run.

Yea i there is no reason for me to get anything other than a ps3 because the major multiplatform games are going to come out for it and it personally like the exclusives better so far. Xbox only seems to have FPS exclusives.

I will not buy another console unless it's really really cheap or I get it for free. It's hard enough handling games for one system when I don't have a job and it'd be harder with two systems. I chose the Ps3 due to it having the games I want to play the most and I've been a Sony fan since I was young.

Nope, I get what I want.

Gran Turismo 5, Final Fantasy 13, Final Fantasy Versus 13, and a bunch of multiplats.

Oh, and the ability to import games without having to mod my system, already imported one. This time if they release an Initial D game to the playstation system, I'll be able to play it no problem.

I bought a PS3 and a Wii at launch.

My ps3 gets played daily, yet my Wii is just a $250 bowling machine.

I wont consider getting the other console since I cannot justify spending money on unreliable hardware. If I feel the need to play the MS exclusives, I will just wait until they come to PC like they always do.

I can understand not having the money that makes since but if you can afford and you love video games why would you not want to own every system. I mean why stop yourself from playing great games. It's just silly.

My close friend has a Wii and unless you get really into the games and motions, its not fun. Like the other person said, I can just go out and play real football or bowling and have much more fun.

As for the 360, I'd really only want a couple of games like Halo and Gears. On the other hand, there are plenty of games on the PS3 that I just can't wait for like Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted, the sequel to Kingdom Hearts, and the sequel to God of War. I'm also excited for Unreal Tournament 3, Killzone 2, Haze, Army of Two, and Crysis on the PS3 even though they may be on both consoles.

I bought a 360 at launch, but wanted the ps3 more than any of them. I went through two 360's in 3 months and didn't replace it until just recently. I bought a ps3 on New Years Eve and have loved it. I have 14 games or so for it now. I had a wii, but sold it. Wii bowling is a great party/family game, but it got boring really fast. I plan on picking another one up for my kids though (13 and 11). I just picked up a 360 elite about 3 weeks ago again to get some games like Gears and Bioshock.

I bought a wii @ launch as well as a ps3 at launch, and i've been much happier with my ps3 as my main console. I sold my wii after trading it for a 360 so i could play gears :D i got like 300 bucks for it and got to play zelda TP the only game I wanted to play for the wii. I've played bioshock on the pc and gears and h3. While i want a 360 to have readier access to some games down the line, and maybe some new old games. I cannot bring myself to buy it until i absolutely know that it isnt going to fail on me! which is why i have a ps3.........

after mass effect the 360 has no games im even slighly interested in that arnt on the ps3 or pc as well, so it's just not enough to get a 360, I play my ps3 a lot and think the game libary is very good now, resistance, motorstorm, folklore, ratchet and clank, eye of judgement, heavenly sword and warhawk are all great exclusives

there is only about 2 or 3 games on the for other systems that i would really want to play besides that i could just use my pc or live without it. but the games to come exclusive to ps3 are must haves for me so i have to have the ps3. and i think i would think of getting another system if the ps3 was back on top but becuase its havinga bumby start i really just gotta be loyal cuz the numbers count right now. if you own both but favor ps3, ps numbers wont advance cuz you have both so things are even. thats why im holding off on anything else

I have all 3 + a gaming PC. Bought the PS3 first, then the wii, then the PC and then the 360. A simple reason is that all platforms have games I want, so i bought all of them. I don't want to bring SW here but of all 3 consoles I, without a doubt, think my PS3 is the most well conceived.

I prefer the Playsation better, but once the 360 comes down in price in a few years I'll probably get one to play the exclusives. I know that might not make sense since the PS3 is more expensive, but I'd rather have paid more to start with to get the console I want, and wait until the 360 is a bit cheaper. I only bought an Xbox last gen when it went down to around 100 pounds (I was living in England back then). I imagine the same will happen this gen. Not interested in the Wii, I like to see good graphics rather than a new controller set up sort of thing.

I know I'm going to get bashed for this, and I apologize ahead of time as I do not want to get anyone all bent out of shape. First off, I own a PS3 and am looking very much forward to a number of games. Loved my PS2, and loving my PS3, but I also *gasp* own a 360. Yes, I know. I can hear the boos and hisses from my computer already, but before you nail me for "trolling", please hear me out. I usually don't post in forums like this (usually just do passing ones in response to articles), but seeing the post by nosedive gave me the idea. I couldn't agree any more with the "fanboys must die" sentiment, as I am first and foremost a gamer and game lover before I am a system loyalist. I will not elaborate for fear of starting a big argument, but I would point out the falsehoods I see based on fanboyism. Im not even concerned with defending the 360, as I am not too happy with being on my 3rd system, while not having a single problem with my PS3, but I will mention that those saying that the only exclusives the 360 has are 1st person shooters are sadly biased and mistaken. As I said before, I am not looking for a fight or anything lame like that, so I will not take advantage of this time to point out all the 360 exclusives that are not 1st person shooters (just know there are plenty). If you really want to know what I'm talking about, feel free to ask. Im just out to kill fanboyism people. I am not "system-ist", and am color blind (Don't see XBox green or PS blue. I just see games). Anyone else at least see where Im coming from?

Before I had the PS3, I buyed a 360 just to try something different for once. Whaddyaknow, I ended up right back with Sony. 360 has too many defects to be taken seriously.. now I'm sticking with what I got and I'm glad I came back too..

Okay I own both a PS3 and a 360. And i got my ps3 on day one. and I have been a sony fan since the launch of the ps1. the reason i have both systems is cause they have games that i like to play. I play my ps3 more now cuz of warhawk. But to be blunt both systems have awesome games coming out. Ps3- uncharted,killzone2, and haze and the 360 has some good games too like im lookin forward to Mass Effect (which is an action/rpg). But i love my ps3 more. :P

Skipped 360 and waited for PS3 but have often considered a 360 for their couple exclusive games and because my buddies have them. I will always prefer to play games on PS3 since I prefer the controller, but it would be nice to actually play a few games with my buddies when we're all not home and off at school.

@ Blindsided82: I seeexactly were ur comin from. I miss the good ol' 16-bit days when, instead of swapping insults, friends swapped systems.

As for the topic... I'll eventually get a Wii, then a 360. But right now I'm extremely happy w/ my PS3 and the games that I have (and will soon get).

I have no interest in the wii. As for the 360, maybe someday I might get one, but for now getting it really isn't worth my money. The only games actually worth getting are halo3 and gears, but then paying 500 dollars and another 12 every month just doesn't justify it. If I want multiplatforms, it'll eventually end up like the ps2 era: the PS3 will have the most sales for those, as well as having the highest quality among the other versionsthis time around.

Never. Wii:I can just go outside.:roll: 360:I like a little variety in my games other than 92% FPS games.:D So no I'm not going to get one of the other systems.:DVyse_Legends

Yup exactly.

FPS is my least favourite genre and the ps3 provides good enough games to keep me happy.
