What would attract you more? The PS3 or the XBOX 360? Move or Kinect? Blu-Ray or HD? 3D or 2D? If you didn't have either console and were looking to buy one right now at the current stage of the cosole generation, which one would you go for?

I voted Wii. But I also would want a PS3.

I like Nintendo's IPs and I can't go a whole gen without playing new Nintendo games.

I also would be interested in a PS3.

So, at a general glance, PS3 is more attractive and while they are almost at the same prices how is even if by a little bit, the XBOX out selling the PS3 (except for the past few months). Are the consumers misguided or what is it?

Considering I don't own any consoles I would choose the system with better RPGs. So the PS3 if it wasn't so expensive.

I do not own any of the current consoles, but none of them offer enough for me to want to purchase another one. I will stick with my PC, more than likely until I die.

If it's just for the games, then the DS. But if it has to be from that list, then the PC since it has games plus everything else.

PS3, because if I didn't have a console I'd need a Blu-ray player. That, and now that I'm no longer paying for Live, I really don't miss it. The rest of the stuff on the list doesn't interest me, though. Not interested in Move/Kinect/Wii, the exclusives are equally good on 360/PS3/PC, and I'm not about to buy a new TV for 3D.

360. Cheaper to own and better looking multiplats. Hopefully I would have tested each controller out on a kiosk, and came to the conclusion that the 360 controller was better.

PS3, i always check the specifications and features fully, so the better media-centre and blu-ray kicks it off to lead. Now i'd go search the internet and see what's happening on both sides of the field and wouldn't be long until i came across the RROD and massively high failure rate of the xbox. So PS3 takes the vote and now i'm on my way to the shops to pick up up my new console. Oh and got two free games with my lovely new PS3 that I just bought... Uncharted 2 and Killzone! What a deal!

I love how you say "Either console" like the Wii doesn't exist, then put "..." after Wii as if it has nothing. Yeah the Wii doesn't have just as many AAAE and more AAE than the other consoles and have a AAAAE only a few months ago. :roll:

Don't feel bad my platform is on the bottom and it didn't get the neat features listed to the side either. I guess its because that those 2 platforms are the only two worth a damn in my book.

If I didn't have a console by now then this would be my first gen gaming. If it was my first gen gaming I wouldn't have my love for Zelda, Metrid, and Mario. So it more than likely would be a PS3 because I've always loved superheros. (inFamous 1/2.)

PS3. I like the exclusives more. I like the ds3 more then the other controllers. Its free online. The multiplat difference isint as night and day as some would like you to think. Though there are some clear examples of night and day ala bayonetta.

A PC is the superior choice to any human with a brain. You don't just get to play games on a PC, it can do everything else as well. PC also has a bunch of free games and if you decide to buy a game its normally $10-20 cheaper then any console game, also the add-ons are free unlike the $15 map packs on the ps3 and xbox 360 for most games. You can't forget the dedicated servers FOR FREE as well, normally a group will buy a server and then just ask for donations or get advertisers so we don't have to pay monthly for dedicated servers like xbox or get some stupid laggy host **** like ps3 (this is only some games, but most games have dedicated servers). Another thing with PC is that games have a far better community than the 10 year old dickheads on ps3 and xbox 360 who run around **** everything that moves. A PC can watch real 1080p not some upscaled bull**** like on xbox. Well, anyways my second choice is the xbox package because PS3 doesn't have **** on the upcoming xbox games and kinect. PS3 move is just some wii rip off while kinect is like the eye-toy perfected and upgraded, which is a good thing. Halo:Reach and Gears of War 3 are enough reason to own an xbox.

I chose to purchase a PS3 over three years ago when it basically had nothing going for it. I don't see my self making a different decision now that the PS3 seems to have everything going its way.

How's it cheaper to own than the ps3?

I have a question. You buy games on the XBOX360 just to look at how much better the game looks than the PS3 version. How much different is it really? or to actually enjoy them. TBH if someone was playing, say, CoD, and I couldn't see the console or the controller, there's no way I could tell the difference between the two unless the buttons on-screen show up.

PS3 most likely. The current and future game lineup interests me more, and it's a Bluray player.

So this is a "picture the last 4 years didn't happen" thread? I would still take the Xbox first because of its back catalogue of games which are now cheaper, all those years of being more consistent count for something in the real world.

I don't know why you added PC though because if I owned nothing at all at this point in time I would get a decent PC asap, PC > consoles.

Ps3.

Electronics company known for good quality.

Features of the consoles compared to the other 2, bluray,web-browser, no AA's needed.

Bigger variety of games than the competitors.
