Favorite next-gen console
« on: August 07, 2006, 01:27:38 pm »
I don't know if this topic has been done before, but i'm doing it anyways. ;D

The PS3 looks nice, but it is way out of my price range.

The XBox 360 looks and plays really good, but again out of my price range.

Nintendo's Wii is very inventive. How you use the controller probaly takes time to get use to. I can't wait for games like Red Steel or Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

So I guess my vote goes toward the Wii.

If i really had to get a console it would probably be the wii, not because the wii is good, its because im too cheap for the ps3 and i dont want to buy a system where the only game i would play would be halo.

I have a PC.  And that's it.

I don't really care for home consoles.  All my favorite games are on my PC.

I'll problably buy PS3 with GTA4 when it comes out. By then PS3's price has dropped so it's affordable.

the wii. Because it will be awesome and I have always loved nintendo.
I would get the 360 but I have an extremely good computer which can run vista, and microsoft sometimes makes a windows version of xbox games, like halo.
Halo2 is coming out for vista in 2007.

Actually, they said SSBB would be controlled normally, not with any of the controllers' sense functions.

And yea, Wii FTW.

Wii wins, no sense in arguing; although ps3 can play all those old-timey games..... Although I might just not buy any of them and be really nice to my granparents before christmas.

Sixhundred for a game console is simply way too much. I doubt I will buy any of the consoles, at least not before I'll get some real payment (I'm going to be a sub-titler, yay [Well, hopefully, that is]).

600 is how much I would spend on a pc.

I voted Wii becuase it's cheaper then the rest, and that it's pretty innovative. 360 sucks coq, except that it has Halo 3, which will come out for PC because budha said so. PS3 is the most powerful, and I would get it if I had alot of money, but meh......I would just play Killzone.

I saw my pal's Xbox360, it was pretty impressive. But for that much i'll never get one.

Kudos goes to the Wii for being innovative, but the name sounds stupid and wapanese.

And sony, i've never cared for....
