Do not, please, do not, start a flame war.

Intelligent criticism welcome, but please do not start bashing.

I see no value in this poll because I do not see my choice here. Please correct this.

It's only ps3, 360, and pc...lol

Why is the Wii not even on here?

PC. It's almost as good as PS3 and 360 if you have a good one. Plus 360 doesn't do your homework

PC. All the pros play there, all the mods, all the dedicated servers, all the custom maps.... Also, a good PC with a good graphics card can blow the PS3 or the Xbox 360 out of the water easily. I'm talking FPS games here by the way, FIFA type games (sports in general) are much better in consoles. But for "serious" gaming, PC is the way to go.

Not Modern Warfare 2 though

I prefer PS3. I know PC is great and all, but I enjoy local multiplayer, and I like the fact that you don't have to upgrade consoles much.

Wii isn't here because to be honest it really can't compete with the other options in this forums age group.

Because it sucks.

Oh I don't know, graphics-wise it's definitely inferior in almost all cases, but in terms of debuting a new method of interaction with the console and making the console more accessible to people that aren't normally gamers, it's done well.

Anyway I vote PC; seeing as I own neither of the other options I can't really comment on them

I know. That's why I might not buy it... I'll wait till it comes out, then we'll see.

The Wii little more then a toy designed to appeal to the masses with novelty.

PC. Console gaming is full of crazy hateful racist nazi 10 year olds.

Prefer all of the above. I like playing multiple games at once.

I know of a funny video with that going on in it...I just can't post it.

But yeah. That is the one thing about PC gaming online as opposed to consoles. Little kids think keyboards are too difficult, so they stick to consoles.

Easily? To get a PC on par with a PS3 (which is currently, performance wise, the best console) you are easily looking at a price tag of over 2000$, probably more to the 2500$ range. Even then you're not looking at graphics that completely blow the PS3 out of the water graphics wise, or the xbox 360 for that matter.

Compared to the PS3's 300-400$ or so current price range ... well ... yeah.

Games wise I prefer the PS3, then again I'm not really into online shooters like Call of Duty and the like. But really, it's up to personal preference.

That is for the individual voter to decide, not the one creating the poll or the people hating the Wii.

$2000? Hah, right. I can build a Crysis rig for sub $1000, and console games have yet to beat Crysis, a two year old game.

"It can't compete"? What is that supposed to mean?

Like Mohorak said, that's for the individual voter to decide.


I'd choose the Wii for the same reason I play RuneScape. Graphics don't matter much to me, and I like simpler, more laid-back games.

Definitely PC...although I'm biased because I've barely used an Xbox and I never played on a PS3. :\

The ps3 is the best console I've played on

I don't like the Xbox 360, I played it a lot round my friends house and we were going to get one, but played a ps3 and were like 'omgz this instead'

And I'm glad we made that decision. PC is good for gaming but I just use it for my casual gaming really (Sims, although I can't play it at the moment, Age of Empires occasionally, and Runescape which is my hardcore obsession )

Edit: @Mohorak

The Wii would be situated in 'Other'

Went for other; the Nintendo Gameboy is unquestionably legendary

The Wii is a different gaming style and I don't really feel it's that comparable to more serious gaming consoles like the PS3.

Exactly as magical said. It's got too few followers and is more of a casual "fun time system" rather than a gaming console.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but you wrote the poll as which do you prefer which doesn't depend on the amount of followers or how "casual" it is.

Everything on the 360 is an FPS or a Rock Band style game.
PS3 can both nothing but good graphics, all the games are crap.
PC is godly.

EDIT: Considering the only thing that makes the 360 decent is Live, and you have to pay like £10 an hour for it, comparing it with the cost of the Internet...

So The following are Crap?

• Uncharted
• Uncharted 2
• Killzone 2
• Metal Gear Solid 4
• Little Big Planet
• Gran Turismo 5
• God Of war 3?(!)

PC gaming beats console gaming.

• Uncharted - Don't Know.
• Uncharted 2 - Don't Know.
• Killzone 2 - Yes.
• Metal Gear Solid 4 - No.
• Little Big Planet - No.
• Gran Turismo 5 - No.
• God Of war 3?(!) - ?(!)

All the games aren't crap actually, you have the Call of Duty's which are widely considered good, even if also on other consoles, but if you look at, for example, Motorstorm, LBP, and Resistance FOM & 2, they're a few exclusives that I have that are very good. You have to be blind to say that, Poke.

XBL is like £20 a month from what my friend says, and he plays more than 2 hours a month

X-Box 360 is the place to go for western RPGs like Fable. X-Box 360 is the place to go for Japanese RPGs now as well like Blue Ocean. X-Box 360 is the place to go for thought provoking games like Bioshock. X-Box 360 is the place to go for FPS like and how.

PS3 is the place to go for Aerial combat games, hack and slash and Vanilla games.

As for PC, its not what you want when you are on a budget, otherwise it is the bees knees.

To clarify the xbox live "issue".

It's monthly, not hourly.

I enjoy the 360, but prefer PS3's controller and exclusives. Playing online I don't look much further than being able to play against others, so the superficial extras that come with XBL don't do much for me. It's good, but inferior in my eyes.

I dislike PC gaming. I have never enjoyed it much, doubt I ever will.

As for the Wii and Gameboy: Nintendo is a much more casual gaming orientated company. They don't fit into the PS3/360 (and PC, I guess) discussion because these are consoles/devices (PC is NOT a console >:( ) aimed at the intense gamer more than the casual.

Oh, and Wind; Bioshock isn't exclusive anymore. It hasn't been for a while now. Your bias displayed indicates that you haven't even played a PS3 before.

Since it is one of the three major consoles (defining the PC as not a console), the Wii should be explicitly stated as an option. It's not that hard to change it.

Again; the Wii is the casual console. It doesn't fit in the non-casual polls.

It's just a poll on preference, I don't see the harm in adding the Wii if people prefer it over the others.

Added, however i don't think it will make a huge difference.

It will skew the results.

It's like saying what's your favourite sandwich spread and adding ham to the poll because people seem to like ham as well.

No it's like adding Nutella to the list. Most people may not technically view it as a sandwich spread, but it is a spread that you use on bread.

No, nutella is a spread. It's like saying egg and mayo is a spread.

But most people don't use Nutella for a sandwich. The Wii's one of the major 3 consoles, so it should be up there. And now that it is, there's no point arguing about it.

I picked other. PS2 fan myself. I just like the choices. So many games, so little time.

Oh and no, I don't like the Wii or the GameCube. I think they're both potentially good ideas gone to shizzle.

I would get a PS3 for GT5...maybe...though...or if AC7 is any good.

The 360 and PS3 are NOTHING compared to modern computers. Which is why the new Call of Duty games have such low req's and why Crysis is not available for the Xbox. The 360 would not cope with it, neither would the PS3.

Hey I like Nutella sandwiches.

Xbox/PS3 also have outdated hardware. I have no idea why they're both thinking to extend their lifespan.

Ditto.
You WILL spend 2000$ if you're a crappy buyer. If you know how to do stuff, you could spend veeeery little.
Plus, PC can do muuuuch more than a PS3, seriously, I can get Xbox 360 graphics on Call of Duty on my 4 year old PC. The only thing I can give to consoles is HD... oh wait, there ARE video cards with HD capability (like mine).

If you want hardcore gaming, and being able to get into stronger communities, with modding capabilities, the capacity to upgrade your PC instead of having to buy a new one every few years (like consoles), the fact that the PC gets most of the time PS3 and Xbox games as well, and sometimes with a cheaper tag and with free updates, instead of the 60$ payed updates and maps console games, and the fact that all the good leagues, clans and pro gamers play there... Plus, with the PC you get Xfire, which is similar or better than Xbox Live, and you can use Ventrilo as well... Or teamspeak, or pretty much anything you want.
Also, the PC has a broader range of games... Unless you play MMORPGs on consoles? Or RTS on consoles? Nah

PC FTW!

P.S: CoD was born... in the PC!

PS #2: anything you CAN spread is, well, a spread.

Consoles games are generally not even displayed in true 1080p, but just 720p upscaled.

If you're really pro, you'd get your computer and hook it up to your big TV then play.

Lol then vote for the Wii like me!
