I'm sorry, how is that not a handheld...? Maybe you should look up the definition of "handheld"

360: smartly designed with continued well thought out support. PS3: Has the possibility to be the best, but Sony consistently has mismanaged resources and made STUPID moves to the point that it makes one believe that Sony wants it to fail. Wii: genious opening with minimalist design with 0 out look for any form of improvement like the other two.

360 - One of the best consoles in history but unfortunatly very unreliable.

PS3 - A nice console but easly the most overhyped one ever.

Wii - gameplay >>> graphics

I am not talking about the hardware defects, becuase personally I never experineced so I can not comment it onthat.. I am talking about how the entire online system is made, how tight the UI is and how its consistently updated.. How they designed the system around being easier to develope on and what not.. To me as a PS3 owner there are clear things I can still criticize the system about.. There are defects that still exist to this day that Sony hasn't fixed.. I can hardly think of any defects in UI, how the arcade works and what not for XBL..

What the PS3 has in my experience as a owner is they seem to lack execution.

360: Arguably the most consistantly great machine, it just needs more 1st party goodness.

PS3: The 1st party exclusives king, will soon live up to the initial hype but needs PSN+.

Wii: You have Super Mario Galaxy, great success.

PC: You're so good at everything that it's become boring to talk about you.

In order of computational power:

PC: Not as great as it used to be for new games, but as ubiquitous as ever in homes today.

PS3: Slower start than previous gen, but with Sony's powerful game development acumen, is finally looking like the Sony of old.

XBOX 360: Most egregiously failure prone console in the history of gaming with significantly less 1srt party support has had great success, but how long can it hold on?

Wii: Most family oriented and kid friendly console on the market has become the #1 console this generation with Nintendo's vaunted 1st party line up, in spite of being the least powerful console system.

I think he meant in terms of the platform. Not the one being used until it dies :P

360 - Solid multiplats with a great online system.

PS3 - Great exclusives, such as MGS4, KZ2, UC 1 & 2 etc.

Wii - Great exclusives, fantastic selection of downloadable games.

PC - Pretty much awesome.

PS3- Great library along with a number of other sweet bonuses.
360- Doesn't really interest me personally.
Wii- A great collection of first-party games and the occasional third-party gem, resulting in a really fun console.
DS- My all-time favorite handheld.
PSP- Has a few worthwhile titles but it pales to the DS for me.
PC- Not that interesting IMO.

All my opinion, people, just like with everyone else.

  • PC: The best platform to game on, though expensive upfront, the value is unquestionable.
  • Wii: A console offering quality unique and niche titles you won't find elsewhere.
  • PS3: By acting as a Blu-ray player, game machine, and having a few other nice additions like Wifi, this console has a nice value situated with it even if it's more expensive than its competitors.
  • X360: The console with the best available library to choose from, and a high quality online service that its competitors only wished it had.

PS3: Great console with the bonus of Blu-ray movies.

Xbox 360: Great console with the best controller for shooters (for me).

Wii: A good secondary or tertiary console with some fun exclusives.

PC: Crashes spoil the experience for me, I don't like k/m control (plus using a controller with it's console means no hassles) and the exclusives are generally not my cup of tea.

PC-dont play it but heard its the holy grail of gaming(i think its too nerdy IMO)

Wii-the best exclusives this gen and has many games you wont find on the other systems,however a really weak system and its starting to show.

PS3- dissapointment of the generation but i still have a love for sony and it has my 2nd fav exclusives this gen

360-faulty system, has the best multiplats but exclusives need to improve too many shooters.Live and the 360 controller is B/A

Ds-the best thing that came to gaming its unmatched

PSP- not that much of a failure but still is and believes many sells came from the hype of it actually destroying the ds.

PS3, most appealing overall library, the generation is coming into its stride right now and PS3 is king during the apex, so the overall winner.

Xbox360, an early leader, but exclusive releases slowed down. Still worth owning for the exclusives it already has, and for the multiplatform games the console often leads on.

Wii. I refuse to say anything because every time I give my honest opinion about it some sheep reports me and I've been banned twice for nothing all because people can't handle one man's opinion that is contrary to theirs.

PC, always the true king, but lacks a great number of conveniences the others enjoy, like having to upgrade every five minutes to keep up, or having to repair your computer because some definitely not porn file you downloaded mucked up your computer, basically when you buy a game for the others if the console works, you know it will work on your machine, not so with PCs.

360- Past it's prime but still a good system.

Wii- Worth buying for the first party exclusives alone, good as a secondary system.

PC- Entering a new era of digital download, once again a head of the pack. The best system.

PS3- Picked up the pieces and currently in it's prime. The console to own at the moment.

Some of the Wii coments are retarded. It's not only about kids/moms for the Wii if you played it.I'm liking some of the good wii comments by some of the posters. If you want to post actual comments about a system you at least have to try it first.

Here's my console description

PC-Is Crysis the only god like game on this system

Wii- Fun system if you get passed the shovelare and mom/kid stereotype,okay online, Fun first and third party games and too much shovelware.

PS3-Is a pretty good system,but Sony should fix things up a little bit.

360- Red ring of doom and Microsoft/Activision's money making machine(I'm refering to youMW2)

[QUOTE="shakmaster13"][QUOTE="oldkingallant"][QUOTE="shakmaster13"]

PC = Awesome sauce.

360 = God dammit another RROD. Wait. What's that Microsoft? You make **** hardware and expect me to pay to play these overpriced games online? **** you.

PS3 = $600 at launch and no crossgame chat with overpriced games and exclusives that will never be released (GT5) LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

Wii = For teh casuals.

This is why people call PC gamers elitist. Kidding or not, this is why. Also the 360 one is multiple sentences...

In my opinion, the PC is the best platform for gaming in most cases. Cows tout the PS3, lems tout the 360, sheep tout the DS, and everything is fine. But if someone decides to tout the PC he/she is automatically an elitist.

Well, yeah. You named people who tout console games as Cows/lemmings/sheep, how do you not expect to be named when you tout the pc?...
