and State 3 NEGATIVE things about the console that you like the MOST. (Cons in other words)

Least: PS3- Free online, fantastic menu layout (XMB), undeniably great exclusives.

Most: Wii- Terrible online service, terrible multiplats, shovelware plagued...

I can't do what you ask of me TC. I don't have all the consoles to obtain an opinion for all of them. Instead, i'll give pros for the 360 (which I don't have)and cons for the PS3 and Wii(which I do have).

Pros for the X360:
- From what I hear from others, Xbox LIVE appears to be awesome
- The Avatar system. I think it is so much better than the Avatars on PS HOME
- Halo, despite what many others say, seems really fun to me

Cons for the Wii:
- Sometimes, the motion controls annoy the crap out of me
- Trying to use the online features sometimes annoy me also.

Cons for the PS3:
- HOME. Biggest disappointment evar imo
- When im playing a shooter, I hate having to use L2 to aim and R2 to shoot. Im too lazy to change controller settings
- The web browser

Least - Wii: Some really good games, sleek design, great for family gaming

Most - PlayStation 3: Not enough people online that talk, online communities die out fast, very few top notch racing games

I know your a sheep so you feel inclined to defend the Wii full force but this topic wont take off if you intend to bombard everyone who mentions the Wii with questions.

So please...

So please...

1. Just wanted to clarify, can we include the PC and handhelds?

2. Would you mind giving your own on input things your most favorite and least favorite consoles do or maybe, do not do so well?

[QUOTE="Shirokishi_"]

[QUOTE="LastRambo341"] Hmmm * How is online service terrible? Can you elaborate? If you mean FCs and accessability to the menu and your friends, then I agree. But in terms of VC, Wiiware etc., you're wrong. * Multiplats.....games like Tiger Woods 10 say otherwise * How is shovelware a con? You don't have to buy themLastRambo341

Im not attacking, sorry if it came off that way.

Id like to leave my opinion at that.

Least liked is 360: 1. Halo is a great multiplayer game, 2. Online service is very well organized, 3. Wish some XBLA games were on steam or PSN

Favorite console PS3- 1. Sony is still playing catch up with PSN, leaving out some desired features. And honestly i cant muster up 2 more things i dont like, i was going to mention how its hard to program for but that doesnt effect me as a consumer.

I'd probably say the Wii is my least liked so positives for the Wii are

1. Its the most reliable console this gen
2. Its got awesome backwards compatibility with Gamecube games
3. Its gets 1st party nintendo games

I like my 360 the most so

1. Least reliable console this gen
2. Microsoft has the weakest 1st party support of the 3
3. Cant really think of a third. It has a matt finish rather than a glossy finish like PS3/Wii? :P

Least: 360 - Great controller design, strong online support, and it usually receives superior multiplats to the PS3.

Most: PC - Expensive if you want to play the latest games on the highest settings, not very accessible to those who do not have (or are not willing to gain) the technical knowledge required to create a gaming rig, and most importantly, Diablo III has not been released yet. :P

Being a true gamer has nothing to do with this... it's more of a fanboy thing.

Only fanboys let their bias blind them so they don't see every console has something good/bad to offer.

[QUOTE="Sandvichman"][QUOTE="LastRambo341"] True gamers endorse all consoles and give credit to where its due. That is all I have to say.GreenGoblin2099

Wii: EXCELLENT Virtual Console downloads, a few good exclusives, easy to use interface

Xbox 360: RROD, Ridiculously priced wireless adapter, payment for Xbox Live required.

Ok here's mine:

Least: Wii -... ... ... this is hard... ... Ok, it has SMG, which looks good... ... ... ... getting harder... ... ... Mmmm, it... ... has sold a lot of units... ... ... Muramasa!!! Muramasa looks beautiful!!!

Most: PS3 - Too many updates, L2&R2 buttons are not as good as they sused to be, lack of Mass Efect makes me sad.

I have Wii and 360, but what if I like and hate the 360 the most? :P

Then you're contradiction breaks the universe and ends us all.

Least fav: 360. Great controller, well organized online, friendly to indy devs.

Most fav: Wii. sub-par hardware, not enough action games, isn't using WM+ anywhere as much as it should.

Least (360): Solid controller design (except for the D-pad), lots of quality options on XBLA, custom soundtracks always available.

Most (Wii): Online multiplayer isn't worth considering when I buy games, HD multiplats never come to the Wii (in any quality form), VC is overpriced by about half.

Least: PC-Has more AAAEs, AAEs and AEs than consoles. Multiplats are better on it. Graphics and mods help.

Most: 360-RROD sucks! Needs more variety in it's AAAEs. Odd community in the games I play.

ps3 has VC, some of the old ones have BC, and sony's first party is a little better then it was last generation

the wii has poor third party support, more games should use motion+, and nintendo can only make so many great games at a time.

pc's need to be upgraded, a lot of its games are being watered down because of this gen's consoles, and console ports like borderlands often get little to no developer support

Least favorite: PS3

1. Online is free

2. don't have to buy anything extra to chrage the controller

3. it's sleeck looking.
