The console wars

This poll is not for fanboy/girl arguing simply vote and give a reason please.

NES/SNES is the best.. but i like my xbox360 over the PS3... nothing great about ps3... ps and ps 2 yeah.

I loved my NES as a kid saturday morning id plug it in and play Mario for hours

What, no N64 or PC options?

To be honest I wanted to try and keep it a new console pole but i loved my gameboy so much i threw it in there

I like my Xbox 360, you can hack it really easy and games just worth 1 dollar, so it's good to save money and try all the awesome games it has to offer. If you don't mind not playing on Xbox live.

I never been into Playstation games, I was more into Nintendo back at the day but I don't like how the Wii works :S I rather play with the old school consoles.

I rather play games online with my pc. Maybe when I start to work I'll buy an original Xbox 360 console and invest in games, now I really can't afford it :S

The Gameboy Color is a handheld, not a console. And anyways it's all about the NES!!!

In what way is this a Serious Discussion thread? Anyway, merged with the existing Video Games thread.

Thanks Tegumi but didnt this thread die last year?

From the ashes, He is risen. All praise.

Well i have both xbox360 and PS3 but i play mainly on ps3 because i was always a playstation guy and i love all those sony exlusives but i dont hate microsoft i like there games but now the only game on xbox i am looking for is forza 4 i wish they annouce some new games

as for the Wii and nintendo never been interested in Mario, Zelda and Metroid or any nintendo games

I'm a 360 man all the way. And all of my friends that owned a PS3's sold it or just chucked it for a 360. for one the 360 has one of the best online gaming communities around. Shure you have to pay for it unlike the PS3 but at least you know you gonna find a lot people to play. As for the wii... ehh there really isn't any community thanks to those retarded fucking friend codes and lets face it, most of the games bite hard. The only two decent games they ever put out was Mario kart and madworld. The motion controls aren't anything be happy about either because of how unresponsive they are. As of now until the new wii comes out or they make some kind of extreme hardware modification the wii will only be a an expensive paperweight to me. So if I'm gonna use a Nintendo product i think ill stick their classics like my NES.

I am a PS man and always will be! I got all three PS console and love every minutes I played on it and still do! The games that you could buy were better for PS and there were not many games I wanted to play that was for the Xbox.
The earlier final fantasy games (7 and 8 mainly) was only for the PS.
Wii was never something I wanted.
Edit: I noticed that I was talking about the older console but my reason still stand!

I have the feeling that this topic is never going to die. I wouldn't be surprised if this outlives Fakku itself.

360 because Playstation 1,2 and 3 controllers are poorly made and I have gone through so many of them due to the buttons being worn down.

Maybe you just don't take care of your stuff. My ps2 controller is still working fine after 7 years,same thing with my PSone and SNES after 15 years.

Never heard of anyone else having that problem.

Probably, either he bought "fakes" or defectives. Or he just plainly brakes it cause of misuse or overuse.

All of my PS controllers are still working till now. Except that one time, when it was accidentally thrown to the wall. It didn't brake, but the insides are broken.

My reasons for PS3[u]

1) FREE online, seriously im not gonna hassle with paying 5 dollars seems like a waste, my parents (and me) pay enough for internet.
2) anyone ever heard of the inFamous.... well InFamous 2???
there's also the very highly anticipated Final fantasy versus 13 for PS3 only. the guy who made it, produced Kingdom hearts so Kingdom Hearts fans CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkZvdT3QS4k it has gameplay so don't worry. :)
Dark Souls (Demon Souls SEQUEL, YES A SEQUEL!!!) and finally 2009's game of the year's next in line... UNCHARTED MUTHA**** 3: Drake's Deception!!!! YEAH!
3) PS3's community is very nice, very few fights will happen unless you start complaining. then your just asking for it. it will usually end up with everyone getting a cookie. or end with you agreeing on staying silent. now this fact was done by Game Stop so don't blame me..... i quote "Xbox's community is very mean. it's community is full of racists, Christens that despise transsexual and Gays. they will make fun of any woman and say any demeaning comment about them such as a WHERES MY SANDWICH!? there also full of 9 year olds that have a Mic that will scream in your face. fighting is very common in any COD game or Halo game online. let alone i pay $5 for this! if you've heard a COD fight on Xbox 360 you know what im talking about"
but don't get it now. PS3's network is under maintenance. now before you start saying.. NOW YOU SAY IT!!??
Xbox has them more frequently so don't consider it a negative. Get one in a week or so

PC, because we get mods and dedicated servers (most of the time)!
