Wii: Got it cause my girlfriend wanted it

PS3: Got it with my LCD for $300 (60 gig original)

360: Got cause i had an xbox and loved it and then i always wanted to try live and never looked back since

PC: I just wanted to create a super gaming rig and upgrade to see how far max settings looked (i love pc gaming even if i dont have time to game)

To be honest, I bought a 360 soley for its online capabilities, virtually all of my friends have 360's and it's common that we duke it out on all of the quality MP games available on the system, an experience the PS3 couldn't bring me.

When I game alone though I prefer PC gaming tenfold, when I can DL and tweak my own little mods :D

[QUOTE="Sword-Demon"][QUOTE="therealnerdd"]

Because it's an American made game console, Plus - The japanese consumer refusal to buy an 360 really upset me, i'll never buy an japanese product again.

:? doesnt that make you just like them?

When you get bombed and lose a number of your population, you tend to hold some grudges. On topic: Yes you should support American products, but Microsoft, outsources a lot of their jobs overseas ( although not as much now) so it's a two sided coin

DS - Pokemon, Metroid, Final fantasy, Mario, Fire Emblem, Animal Crossing, etc etc etc etc x 10000. Too many games to list. The best handheld of all time period. Wii - Exclusive Nintendo Games, Wiimote(and accessories) novelty, and Virtual Console. PC - Exclusive games(Crysis, Starcraft, Heroes of Might, Dawn of War), Superior and most versatile control schemes(I use KB+M for FPS/RTS and a 360 controller for everything else), and Superior Multiplats.

360 = Gears of War/Dead Rising
PS3 = Metal Gear Solid 4/ Little Big Planet
Wii= SSBB/ No More Heroes

Of course most there is also multiplats and great features that each system has but those are the main reasons I bought them and didn't stick with one console.

Main Reason: Games Others: reliability, free online, controllers...(PC/PS3). That's why I'll be getting a Wii soon, (damn you Capcom for releasing Monster Hunter on it) :P

PS3- More reliable than the 360, games, no add-ons like the 360, and blu-ray.

PC- Had it forever, and I need it lol

Wii- It was a gift

I got my Wii mostly because of SSBB, and I'd say that game alone was worth the purchase, but I've also enjoyed quite a few other first party titles for the Wii.

I knew I wanted to play FFXIII... and found out it was going to be multiplat. I checked the exclusives for both consoles and it was a no brainer, PS3 has a ton of exclusives that appeal to me, while Xbox360 has like... 1

For my PC... well... I'm required to have a top notch PC for my line of work, so that really was more of a cool side-benefit.

Blu Ray and the games that interested me on it. Mgs4,KZ2,GT5 and more are all games that are/will only be on the ps3 so that made my decision alot easier about what system to buy. :) And I love the Dualshock 3 too.

I bought the Wii for the great price, Nintendo exclusives, and the interesting WiiMote.

everyone has a story, so heres mine. My friend got the OG Xbox, around the same time I got my PS2 (I think it was some time in 2000? 2002? the PS2 cost me $200) So when my friend got his 360, though it was (is) fun, after hearing about all the hardware problems MS was having, and the way they abandoned their consumers with the xbox, and my PS2 was still running smooth (still does) I decided to stick with the brand I trusted, and I am quite satisfied with that decision.

The PC was my first gaming epxerience. I got my PS3 because I wanted a media center PC, but couldn't afford one at the time, and I saw the KZ2 CGI (I know it was fake, but the game looks better so my gamble paid off). Seeing as how it had a blu-ray player AND it could have some pretty nice exclusives for it(especially GOW3), I decided to get a PS3. I had a 360 too, but my cousin borrowed it and broke it.
