That's a good question. That's why I haven't decided which console to get first yet. I don't want my systems to sit there and gather dust. Plus I have not had the greatest amount of time to play lately cause of college courses. But I'll make time!

I have the Wii60 combo.

I just play one game at a time. That's usually how it is right now. Like Metroid just came out, Halo later this month. There's more than enough time to play both without sacrificing a lot of time.

Now in November when Mario Galaxy comes out, Assassin's Creed etc. It'll be a bit tougher.

A lot of games I have to play, and some I can wait out. Its hard to game all the time, definitely. Just be moderate.

And you shouldn't have sold your Wii, the game lineup this winter is ridiculous. Though the Elite is very nice.. though if you had a premium I don't think it was worth it imo.

I buy at least 2 games per month. Almost all 360 games.

PS3 pretty much just collects dust.

I have the PS3-360 combo... Here's an example of what I normaly do:

At the beggining of august I was playing both Ressistance ps3 and Guitar Hero II for the 360. After I finished Ressistance I picked up Ninja Gaiden Sigma but then 2 days later Bioshock came out, so I started playing Bioshock and stopped with Ninja Gaiden for a while. After I finished Bioshock once, I started my second playthorugh on hard, while I picked up Ninja Gaiden again.

It's a matter of organization... and I tend to always play 2 games at a time, specially the shooter + anything else combo. Also the Ps3 is a useful Blu-ray player and I love movies, and also I think the dvd upscalling is a little bit better on the ps3, because of the VGA vs HDMI between consoles.

I have all three consoles and to be honest I never play the Wii. It's there mainly for my nieces when they come over so they have something to do, even if we haven't planned anything for that day. It mostly just sits around and collects dust. But the PS3 and 360 I play regularly, with the 360 getting more of that time. However, my PS3 is always on running Folding@Home so it's not like it isn't being used.

Well I own the 360 and the ps3(I LOVE BOTH,NO FANBOYISM HERE) so it's simple for me.Whichever system I get a new game for, I focus on that game until I beat it. While waiting for new games to be released I'll go back and play a level or 2 from my favorite games from both systems.:D

i have a lot more 360 games than ps3 games....so i play the 360 more...but i also don't rush through my ps3 games so that i have something to play until ratchet and uncharted come out...when i am in the mood to play a baseball game i play the ps3 becuase i have mlb 07 and mlb2k7 for the ps3...there is no way to "beat" those games so they keep me busy for quite awhile until the great games start coming out.

The Wii has good value when you take into account the virtual console games which are classics. Now that MP3has been releasedthere is a solid gaming experience to be had and mario galaxy as well as smash bros and the next mario kart are all being released in the next 2-6 months. The 360 has its obivous perks with a great lineup in its wake and surefire hits like Halo3 andMass effect as exclusives. PS3 has potential with MGS4 waiting in the wings and heavenly sword seems promising given the recent review although the game is reportedly very short. I guess a blance is there and the next 6 months look to be a very exciting time in gaming. I suppose you would be justififed in owning all three but as far as value is concerned i would say 360/Wii/PS3 in that order.

I had all three, but I sold my Wii because it sucked and I got a lot of money for it. I don't think it actually sucks, the games just don't appeal to me. Managing my time between my 360 and PS3 is difficult, but I manage pretty well.;) Having both is a necessity for me because they both have games I just have to have, and I couldn't get my gaming needs fulfilled with only one or the other.

I luv the way my roommate did our combo. I bought the 360/Wii combo and he supplies all of the ps3 stuff. So basically we have it all and between two people (and when other people come over) it doesnt go to waste. Between college classes, hmwk, studying, working, women,partying, clubing, and gaming. We make time so no worries. If we can do it im sure you can.

I have all three and a two games going for each. I play the Xbox 360 the most, with Wii and PS3 tied for amount of usage. On Xbox 360, I'm playing Bioshock and Two Worlds right now, while on the Wii I'm playing Cooking Mama(cool game) and Far Cry Vengence(I actually like shooters on the Wii) and on my Playstation 3, I'm playing Motorstorm and The Darkness.

I have all three and I have to say that I play my 360 the most. There was a moment where I was playing my PS3 a lot more mainly because I had just bought it and It was new to me. When Heavenly Sword demo came out I was constantly playing my PS3, but then came the SKATE demo and my PS3 started to collect dust again, and since Skate comes out this week, it will continue to collect dust. The Wii on the other hand, is something I play every now and then, mainly when I have a bunch of friends over we'll get drunk and play Wii Sports. Til this day Wii Sports is the game I play the most on my Wii, and that's not really saying much. Later on this year and next year Im sure I will be goingback and forward between360and PS3 all year, once the bigger games for PS3 come out and. Multiplats I will be getting on 360 cz it's usually better and has the better online.

I have them all but pretty much play my 360. I'm keeping the Wii for my 6 year old but ironically I just posted my PS3 on craigslist yesterday. If any good PS3 games come out in the future I suppose I can just buy another console but right now my 360 is the only must own.

I own all three also. I split my time up where PS3 and 360 get most of the time though. the Wii I generally use for multiplayer party games. Which usually ocurs most weekends at my college. I first got the PS3, and mainly bought the 360 for Halo, and for the PC/360 exclusive games, because my government issued PC isn't up to the task of running any games.

haha, good question, TC. i honestly have no clue... do you work or go to school? if not, i wouldnt see why you wouldnt have the time. as for me, i work 8-5, 5 days a week, weekends are with friends and/or family - no time for games, and i have a month old baby... i guess if you've got the money, it doesn't matter, but its perfect when you're just at home with nothin to do. i try and not make it my life to game anymore as my lifestyle has drastically changed within one year. but my passion and addictiveness is still there. when i start, its difficult for my girl to get me off and go about our daily tasks

Well I am en route to getting a 360, first I purchased the PS3, backwards complatiility and I like that games, plus with the blue ray. Recently bought a wii, looking forward to games, 360 mostly because of buddies and wanting to play the crap outta halo 3 haha.

WHeere do I find the time? Well, I like variety and am sometimes sick of renting the same games, so with all three, I can usually hold out until something new comes out for one of them LOL. Personally, I only have the 3 cuz I wanted them all, they all hold games which I like a lot, PS3 FF series, DMC4, Wii MP3, Zelda the controllers rock as well, 360 well of course halo, and a couple of the other exclusives.

I also work in the mining exporation industry and find myself in the bush alot, so $$ comes kinda easily but is replaced by boredom, so being a gamer comes in handy out here.

I have all 3. I'm spending most of my time playing Bioshock, R6V, NBA 2k7, Guitar Hero II, and Madden on X360. I use my PS3 for watching Blue-Ray because there's no game that interest me beside Warhawk which sold old everywhere in my area; I might pick up Heavenly Sword tomorrow because my wife want to play it. My Wii is seriously collecting dust; I try to play Mario Stricker and Mario party on weekend with family

This holiday season going to be crazy and difficult to manage time with all the great games coming for the 360 and PS3.

Right now I am playing MP3 for Wii, COD4 Beta for 360 (finished Bioshock in a week), and Warhawk for PS3. Warhawk and COD4 can be played in spurts, so it is easy to manage the games I have now. Owning all three, you can be more selective on the games you buy. For people that only have one system, they need to have multiple games and there may not be multiple quality games out at any given time. With all three systems, you are virtually assured AAA at any given time. That said, I do play mostly 360. Wii and PS3 probably equally share the remaining time.

I buy at least 2 games per month. Almost all 360 games.

PS3 pretty much just collects dust.

Radiozo

complete opposite, 360 collected dusk, well until bioshock came out then it broke, will be playing it come the end of the month whenever i get it back to catch up with some great games that came out. Both systems offer different experience matters what kind of person you are, and the mood im in for. Most online gaming is on ps3 bc too many a$$es on live (it is supreme over psn though). It's the Wii that collects the most dust!

I own the 360. I used to own the Wii and PS3. I gave them both away to family members b/c I wasn't playing either of them; I wasn't happy with the Wii's lack of graphical power and lack of enjoyable games; I wasn't happy with the PS3's lack of games period; the HD Wars have not ended, and both consoles were cluttering the area around my television. When the PS3 gets better games or when the HD Wars are over, I'll buy another PS3 if BR becomes the dominant format.

I only Have the wii and the 360 but planning to get the PS3 soon. Well if I see something I like from either for the wii or the 360 I buy the game for either one. Mostly I play the 360 more then the wii.
