Which system do you prefer?

[zorbels]

My co workers and I are having a debate at work about which gaming console is better. What do you think? Just post your vote and I will add it to the tally in this post. See I may not have making poll rights on the forums offically but it can be done. I work with six people between three stores and these were there votes incase you are wondering why there are so many with no posts yet.

Xbox 360 [|||]

Awesome. I really want the Wii because I have every generation of nintendo but the Wii. Unfortantly they are rare to find at the moment here in Canada. The only way to get one is to try ebay. *pouts*

PS3 -
The Xbox 360 overheats and is just a mediocre gaming platform.  Also, Live is fail.

The Wii on the other hand is awesome, if you are more of a casual gamer.

PS3 has the ability to play DVDs and Bluray (on the 80 gig), along with some PS2 games.  Has beautiful wireless controllers which you can charge while playing.  Much more potential than the Xbox 360 and isn't microsoft!

W00t.

And Drey has a 360 which makes it fail

........... along with some PS2 games. 

Beware though. The new systems soon to be flooding the market are not backwards compatible. They will not play PS2 games.

I like the wii, but I have been unable to get a hold of one, and I'm not spending $500 on ebay for one. The XBOX overheats, and the PS3 is very expensive. Also I don't mind about graphics that much. The Wii's are fine.

bah, give me retro consoles any day, Sega Mega Drive \o/

This thread is so depressing, I don't have the money to get a ps3 so I'm still playing my ps2. Don't think I'll ever get rid of it 

I really can't decide, each system is so different. I'd most likely go with ps3 though just because I'm a playstation old timer. I'll give you my opinions though 

Wii- Fun for groups, for play on boring days, for people not obessed with console games. No good if your the type of person who likes to play console games nonstop as there aren't as many strategy, rpg, and other games that fall under those genres. It'll get really boring to keep on playing the same old mario games 

360- All and all a good system. However I hate its controller, its just stupid. Unless your willing to get xbox live I wouldn't bother though. I personally get too bored of 360 games unless you get the challenge of playing agaisnt other players (which sometimes isn't very challenging because other players are horrible  )

PS3- The playstation console was always just created for every game. Casual players and those who play nonstop can be happy here. Why do you think the 360 and nintendo reserve games for their console only? Because if they were on the PS3 there would be no point to buying the others. The only problem I have with the PS3 is the outrageous price it came out for. If it wasn't for that I'm sure I'd have one right now

No worries Duraza. By the time you can afford a PS3 they will have come out with more games for the system so you won't have the issue of not having enough games to play like alot of owners who have the system right now. If you ask me the PS3 isn't worth the investment. They charge way to much for a system that has no selection of games.

When it comes to games I'm never worried though. I'm into the games that have been around forever like Tekken, Mortal Combat, virtual fighter, etc. I love a lot of other games too but those classic arcade games are my favorites. The console always ends up putting one of those on there eventually so all I have to do is wait. Besides those I usually just rent games and if I like them enough I'll actually buy them. Most of the time I buy a game just to beat it and never play it again so I figured renting is better for me unless its really good. All I need is at least one of the games listed above (and I know for a fact there is tekken 6 for ps3) and a racing game and I'm set

I had to vote PS3, but not because of the games right now. The PS3 has an amazing cpu and I'm thinking about getting one just to program on (which is my main reason for voting for it).
I would buy a Wii for games if I had to get one right now, but I think the PS3 has the most long-term potential.

Wiiiiiiiii \o/  I camped for mine on launch day.

Don't get a piiessthree, dust will void your warranty.
