I honestly feel like im schizophrenic sometimes im like:

'yeah Halo Reach I just seen the new footage OMG its gonna be hard for the PS3 to cope after this game!'

'wow Alan Wake looks amazing so atmospheric with an awesome premise!'

then im like :


'Xbox 360 just doesnt have unique games like The Last Guardian everything all guns and blowing things up!'

'wow GOW3 looks sick! how is the Xbox ever going to survive its final years!'

which half of my brain is gonna win? im going mad here!

I agree! Like, last night for instance

I'm obsessed w/ Mass Effect 2 and can't wait for Alan Wake!

Yet, at the same time, I downloaded the Heavy Rain demo and fell in love w/ it. The best of both worlds :)

Owning all the systems is great. I can play any game i want and not just a small preset list of games.

Agreed. I beat Mass Effect 2 yesterday and it was so amazing.

And then I get to see the trailer for God of War III and know that I'm getting that game.

AND THEN today I watch the Halo: Reach vidoc and I know that I'm getting that game.

Now I just need to get that Wii and gaming PC so I can say that about their titles. :P

Add a PS3 to that and you'd be completely right. ESPECIALLY if you are into movies and have a HD set. I love having a really good gaming righ and the 2 HD consoles. Hell I'd add the Wii if I wasn't so disappointed with it. But I wouldn't argue if someone added it. It's a great feeling to have the ability to play ANYTHING that comes out.

On paper that sounds great but tbh I can't keep up with the latest games on 2 systems, so adding 2 more systems would just be a waste of money imo.

I don't see the point in owning multiple systems.

Sure it gives you access to a broader range of games; but who has the time to play so many? One system provides enough games to cover your free time, if not then you have far more free time than most people.

Just depends on how you manage your time. If you do things right you should be able to squeeze in an hour or two a day for games. If not well. Theres always the weekends :p

this. the good thing about owning all the systems is that in no longer have to chose from just the 360 section. i can now just play what ever i feel like playing (well i still need the buy the games so its not quite like that but sill :P)

High end PC + 360 is the best combo :)

anshul89
Not really....the 360 will come up with the short stick every time and will get very lonely until the few worthy exclusives show up. High End PC and a PS3 will get you much better choice of games.

But the 360 has more high rated exclusives? Not saying anything bad but. Im just trying to understand that point.

Infact there was a thread a while ago that proved that the 360+ pc combo yields more exclusives/games I Im not trying to be a fanboy here but im just saying.

I must say, I am interested in Alan Wake now. However, that's about the only thing I'm missing from 360. Eventually I'll pick one up, probably for Fable 3 and Alan Wake, but right now, I just can't justify it :( Still, it is nice to know I can play the majority of this gens top titles! [PC,PS3,Wii]

Having the ability to play anything and deciding to play everything are two completely different animals. That where some research, a bit of common sense and good time management come into play.Also, it's not like to have to try and play everything at once.

Priorities are important.

Feh. I'd rather have a standalone player any day of the week and a dedicated player that also plays PS3 games is golden. Digital audio Hardware/software is a mixed bag on the PC.I also have a PC hooked up to my Bravia. I'm no slouch when it comes to PC's and screwing around with digital audio for my 7.1 system has been a pure headache.

I'm not trying to play everything at once. I still have to complete dragon age and king's bounty (haven't even started Mass Effect 2 and Call of Pripyat). I spend more time playing multiplayer games so good time management doesn't come into play because I just play whatever I'm in the mood for (TF2, FIFA10, MW2)
