Well we know what he meant.

Out of the consoles listed I would have to say PS3. I spend more time on the PC tho playing MMORPG's atm.

Going to be testing out FFXI on the PS3 soon tho and with the new update comming should be able to chat with whomever I want while I play. Used to play it on the PC and figure I would rather give it a whirl than everquest online adventures.

Already have an account for the PC version gonna try to borrow and load the PS2 software and use my account. No need to buy a 40gb HD and the game when I can't use the HD.

Also planning on getting a 160gb Western Digital Drive for $100 and spending a lil extra for a external USB enclosure for the 60gb HD that is in the PS3 now and load Linux and all that as well and still have the old 60gb drive for storage. 

 The flexibility of the system and the fact I can still play my PS1/PS2 favorites will prolly end up switching me to a console gamer especially if I can find a good MMORPG that won't have to worry with winblows to play with my friends. Several MMORPS I could run under Linux but since they are written for the PC linux they are prolly going to want more memory than the PS3 has to run smoothly.

Can't get the functionality that the PS3 has for anywhere near the same price.

You shouldn't have grouped N64 and Gamecube together. N64 was awesome at the time, but gamecube sucked ass and should have been thrown in the garbage by everyone who owned it. Nintendo should have went backrupt with that system, they ruined their brand with sh**ty 2d games for 2 year olds.

otherwise PS3 owns! (N64 was the most satisfying system at the time though)

I tend to prefer my 360, but mostly because there's not much available for the PS3 that I didn't already get on the 360, and the fact that I dig the 360 controller a lot. Ask me again in January.

I prefer the PS3, but don't hate the others. Game consoles are made for games and they all have great games, that's how it must be. Love for everyone, no hate. Shut the fanboy crap.

I find myself playing the 360 more then the ps3 atm, and have continued to buy multi-plats for it simply because of achievements. Hopefully when Home's HoF comes out, and more games materialize things will change. As for the Wii, I rarely touch it for newer games other then SPM. Unfortunately though, when I have casuals over they insist on playing Wii Sports and go banannas over the thing.

I own a PS3, I think itz great. Blu-ray was a huge deciding factor in my purchase however. I also have a Wii and I consider it my primary and favorite system. I think the innovative controls can take gaming to a new level, and theres alot of potential there. Nintendo games in the pass have usually have appealed to a more younger audience, which is definately changing, but they always make the most fun games, no matter.

As for the 360, I dont think itz that great of a system. If you want to be called a next-gen system, I'd like to think that the system have more updates from the previous system besides graphics.I realize they are trying to give options to the buyer, but both the PS3 and Wii have wireless built in. PS3 and Wii both are making use of the motion controls. The Blu-ray player in the PS3 is also a big bonus. Also microsoft has enough money but they are charging their users for online... I prefer my PSWii combo..

At launch I liked Wii, but with the constant updates and improvements to the PS3 and the almost exponential increase in quality of games for PS3 it's become my favorite. In fact my Wii hasn't even been turned on in over a month.  My favorite console of all time has to be Sega Genesis. I loved that thing. :)

Favorite console for its time:  SNES.  Most memorable games to me.

Favorite new console: PS3. It just has to much potential and all my favorite games are on the way.

Favorite next generation system is XBOX360. I find myself playing it over my PS3 all the time. My brother is an NYPD detective and I'm a banker in indiana yet we're always online with friends and family and staying close using our XBOX360's. Resistance is kool but Gears of war rocks. I love Rainbow Six Vegas too.

Old skool system I am gonna have to go with SNES and Genesis. PS2 kicked ass but I still can't say its old school because I am still playing God of War2 and FF12. My four year old loves his DS and Gamecube. No Wii yet cuzz that controller would winfd up in the TV or window knowing him =).

Can I get a halleluja?!!!!

Oh, and to answer the question, my favorite, er, medium to play games in is my PC. Console wise, it's a dead tie between 360 (Dead Rising, as I'm a sucker for anything with zombies) and PS3 (for Resistance and backwards compatability done right)

I beg to differ. When you customer build a dual core running two Nvidia 8800's and a 24 inch widescreen, you're in it for the games regardless of how you try to delude yourself into thinking it's a mutimedia all purpose powerhouse.

I love my Playstation 3....

I like my XBOX360, and I'm lucky that it hasn't red-ring-of-death'ed on me...

I'm 50/50 about my Wii, it's gathering dust, but Zelda:TP was a great game..

Well im no Sony fanboy but sony always released the best consoles IMO so my current favorite is PS3 but there is no good games out yet other than like 4 :( so thats why 360 (awsome console)is lil better in games but PS3 will get back on top when games like warhawk, heavenly sword, lair, 8 days and so on come out the ps3 will rock this world plus couple of other like MGS4 and FF13 but right now its slacking, well favorite console would be either PS1 or PS2 it had so many good games for its days it was amazing, Just saying i dont know why people found N64 so good tho... i found it quite boring just had some good games like Zelda and MARIO 64!!!!!! IT was ok but NIntendo fell down since Sony came in, but now they are coming back with the wii which is awsome, probably will win for an easy reason becuase it will be everybodies second console, because they will have like a PS3&Wii or like 360&wii so yea i think a wrote a lil to much but w/e.

To be honest I'm so impressed at the maturity of everybody that has posted in this thread (Since this is definately a System Wars Topic) that I'm not going to ask for it be locked :P.  Good on yas.  I don't really have a favourite "system" (had to include PC), I just play what I feel like playing at the time.  I'm glad to have so many options.

I've been a Nintendo fan since I knew how to play video games.  I grew up with the Big N and the SNES is my favorite console, period.  Super Metroid, anyone?  I can't wait until that appears on the Wii's virtual console.  I can't find my copy of my favorite game of all time... :(  Most of Nintendo's big franchises, I'm a big fan of because I grew up with them.  And because they never dissapoint me, and that's why I predict I will continue being a Nintendo fan.

The only game I've played on the 360 is Gears of War and I enjoyed it thoroughly, but that's it.  I never owned the original Xbox and I don't plan on getting a 360 anytime soon, if at all.  Some of the 360 games like Mass Effect and Bioshock interest me, but I don't understand Halo (I've never played it, don't have much interest to) and not many other games on the 360 catch my eye that I won't be able to also play on the PS3.

And, of course, I'd be amiss if I didn't mention my undying love for the PS2.  Oh, Okami, how I shall miss thee...save Okami! Go buy it, go! ... :)
