What consoles do you currently own, which is your favorite/least favorite? Why?

Just this gen I have

360

PS3

PSP go (originally had a PSP, but it died :( )

Gaming PC

I had a Wii, but I sold it. So dissapointed with Nintendo this gen. PS3 and 360 are pretty much tied this gen. These past 2-3 years I've had more fun with the PS3 by far, but before that I had more fun with the 360 by far. I've also been pretty dissapointed with PC this gen. The only two great exclusives that have come to the PC this gen to me are Napoleon total war and Company of heroes. I could really care less about better multiplats since I'm not going to pay the $ to max out games anyway.

Maybe you could try to make a worthwhile contribution to this thread.

I know, it's just that his stupidity which has gone uncontrolled for years here can sometimes grate on the nerves. :P

I have a wii, ps3, 360, 3ds, psp, and ds. I don't have a favorite now but the psp is definitely my least favorite for some years now. And that is stopping my from getting a vita. That and the high price of it and its memory cards.

I own a wii, DS, 3DS, and PS3.

Overall, this generation, the Wii was my favorite. It had great games without some of the unnecessary hassles of an HD twin or gaming PC. I played a ton of wii games and one of my favorite games from this gen is Super Mario Galaxy. However, the wii was constantly shafted in terms of multiplats, so there was always this sort of unnecessary reliance on exclusives to not be terrible. Also the online system was beyond ancient, and the wii controls for certain genres like FPS were slightly uncomfortable.

The DS was nice, although I rarely found good games to play on it. I think my most played game on the DS is either Brain Age. I know I'm a terrible sheep, but to be honest, I absolutely hated that thing. It was mildly uncomfortable to use, and it was hard to switch between touch and button controls because one hand always had to hold the stylus.

The 3DS isn't necessarily bad, it just causes me debilitating migraines if I see the 3D effect for longer than half an hour. Also, being the constantly moving person that I am, the 3D effect kept going in and out of focus. I also bought the thing at launch, so I essentially bought a $250 migraine machine.

The PS3 has recently become one of my favorite systems. It has a great online system, and a fairly comfortable controller. The dualshock is a natural controller for me because I've used one since the PS2 days. I also find myself in the rare position of actually enjoying many multiplats as well. The added bonus of it also being a blu-ray player was nice, as the PS3 makes a decent multimedia device as well. However, I dislike the mandatory installs and software updates of the PS3. I think it's because I'm used to the wii's style of boot up the system, put in a new disc and play the game almost immediately.

However, I don't really have a "favorite" console or handheld. They all have their pros and cons.

I own a

-PS3 60GB(YLOD)

-PS3 Slim 160GB

-360 S with a 60GB HDD

-PS2

-GameCube

-DS

-Smartphone

Don't own but I have access to a

-Wii

-PSP

After last years E3, I didn't have much reason to play my PS3 other than Star Ocean 4 and Red Alert 3. Now my Slim PS3 is drifting around the apartment somewhere gathering dust with my DS. I have plenty of games that I want to play on my PS2 and GC but the only SDTV we have is the one in the living room and that one is always being used. So my main console right now is the 360 and that's mostly due to BF3( I really dodged a bullet by not picking up the messed up PS3 version this time around :lol: ) and my close friends.

Got both a PS3 and a 360. Currently alternate between which one I bring back with me to college. Currently have my 360. Had my PS3 last semester. I honestly prefer the PS3 since 360 is currently a Multiplat and Kinect Machine.

It's a pretty close split overall though.

PS3 and wii

Like the wii more. I have really come to dislike dual analog controls and games that try to be epic action movies. I miss the good old plug and play days of gaming and the wii feels more like the spiritual nes. You just find the neatest games on the wii that are physically impossible on any other console.

I do love my PS3 too, just I get a lot more play time out of the wii.

I have a Wii, and a laptop which basically only runs TF2 in terms of games.

I have a PS3, a Vita and a gaming PC. I like my PS3 and PC the same. Vita has failed me with it's awful wi-fi but everything else about it is ok.

ps3, 360, wii, psp.

although I play the 360 most because of multiplats like MassEffect, etc, I could totally live without it. (Although it has the best interface)

The only reason I keep it around is because a part of me feels like I'd be missing out if I didn't play the exclusives on it, which is wierd because I don't even really enjoy them. (I don't know why this same mentality hasn't caused me to buy a gaming PC, 3ds, VITA)

So I like the ps3 more, then the wii, then 360.

I own:

PS3

PS2

PSone

Wii

Gamecube

N64

SNES

NES

3DS

DSlite

DSphat

GB Micro

GB Color

360

Xbox

Dreamcast

Favorite of them all is probably PS3 or DS lite.

Least favorite of them all is GB Color or original Xbox.

Why? Because I have the most/least amount of games on those systems that I like.

I have all of the Big 3 and a DS with an okay gaming PC (it was top of the line 4 years ago or so). I perfer the 360 because of the achievements, the controller (biggest reason) and because I bought it on launch day so I supported it from the start with the biggest library. My PS3 is used for movies and exlusives, while the Wii is maybe played a couple times a year. The PC gets love around Steam sale times.

The 360 and PS3 I got rid of the Wii. 360 gets played the most because it's where my friends are, but my consoles are glorified rental and netflix boxes. I do all my game buying on my PC. jg4xchamp
