Personally I have a 360, PS3, and I game on PC. However, it seems to me that PS3 is becoming more popular as of late. What do you guys think? My 360 is gathering a little dust as of late :)

Hmmmm, not right now for myself. No exclusives have released that I haven't played, so the bulk of my time is spent playing my 360!

I play on both 360 and PS3 equally though I enjoy my PS3 much more. Wii is collecting dust till SS.

I stopped using my xbox 360 and my wii, for like 2 years. So i sold them. Then i started playing CSS on Pc....and it kept growing....and BOOM! Almost 200 games on steam. I stopped playing ps3 for about a year because of that, and a few weeks ago i sold it. So now, it looks like im going to say PC.

If consoles only then yes PS3 all the way. If include PC then PC over ps3. I grow tired of 30FPS sometimes.

TBH ever since I started research, I haven't gamed at all (and my gaming laptop died), I just been rocking out forums. I might bring my ps3 to my apartment when resistance 3 comes out.

Since I sold my 360 and almost never play my Wii, it is my console of choice, but not my system of choice. I still prefer to game on my PC.

I own a 360, Wii and various other previous generation consoles. There are perhaps three games that I am interested in playing on the PS3. MGS4, TLG and Journey. To me, that doesn't seem like it should be my "console of choice."

the 360 has much bigger library of critically acclaimed games, and that's a fact. :)

if the ps3 is the console of choice, its software sales wouldn't be as pathetic as it is now...

OR

You could get a Xbox 360 and get 360/PC games + PS3/360 games + 360 games.

Not a bad deal, amirite?

For me, it is right now. Then again, it goes in spurts. About half the year, I'm a PS3 guy. Then I want to give my 360 a little love, and I go all in on the 360. For SW, the PS3 seems to be the console of choice, but in the real world, I'm not so sure. I'm literally the only person I physically know who owns one.

Nah, the 360 is still my console of choice. I can't justify a purchase of a ps3 because I only want to play MGS4, God of War 3/Origins, Last Guardian, and ICO/SOTC collection. I can get all most everything on the 360 plus Halo, Gears, and other MS exclusives. Maybe I will buy one when it hits $149 or $99.

I've been going with the PS1, PS2, and now PS3 so the PS3 is definitely my system of choice. However, I am interested in the XBOX 360, PC, and Wii because they have a lot of different games I'd like to play. For me it's all about the games regardless of what system they're on.

If you check my thread you'll see the reason some of my buddies stopped playing their PS3.

not for me it isnt. ps3 is a distant second to the 360 this fall for me. Madden tomorrow, Gears, Forza, Ace Combat, Batman, saints row and MW3 all being bought on 360. Ps3 will only see Uncharted and maybe Battlefield this fall.

I think PS3 has always been the console of choice in here, that's because Sony has in the time they've been around created a large internet following. I don't think that has changed.

Have owned all consoles this gen, currently still have ps3, xbox360 and PC.

PC I play the most out of them no doubt.

As for the consoles, they are about even these days.

Would be interesting to see a true poll though, as MS has focused much less on first party core exclusives as of late.

It is surprising that there are almost as many people here who prefer PS3 as there are people who prefer 360, PC, Wii combined. Sony would love it if they could extrapolate these numbers to real-world metrics.

Yes. It's been picking up the slack of 360 and Wii droughts recently.

For consoles, I like the PS3 the best, but the all time best system ever is the PC.

Thats hardware sales, the funny thing is that software sales are practically identical on each platform so I have no idea what he is talking about.

One of the things I like about Sony is that unlike Nintendo and M$, they dont focus less on there current console as the gen comes closer to a end, God Of war 2 released in 2007 and was a hit.

My Wii has been untouched for a while now... SS will change that.

My 360 has been receently used but not too much.

So yeah, PS3 is my console of choice which I spen equal time on along with my PC.

They're exactly the same.. and both pale in comparison to any decent rig anyway.

PC for everything except exclusives (to answer the thread).

You don't understand what that statement was saying. Even if PS3 was 10x as powerful as 360, with 4x as much RAM, it wouldn't really matter. They set aside x amount for background OS functions, and whatever is left is what they tell Devs is available. Since voice chat was not included at the OS level, but rather included in the games that use it, there was no RAM set aside to use for OS-level chat. They could implement it, and tell devs that furture games had to use less RAM... except then games that were already made and used all the RAM that HAD been allocated to them would be unplayable. Doens't mean one system is more powerful than the other, just means one system had OS-level chat in mind when the designed it, and the other didn't. Still doesn't fully rule out the possibility of it in the future. If they redesigned the OS in a future firmware and manage to get a lower footprint, they could free up RAM for voice chat and still stay under the amount reserved. Whether it would be worth it or not is questionable.
