I know you guys have seen a ton of these polls around.

But now there should be no doubt what system you like best.

Pick one and tell us why.

retarded poll tbh.

Xbox360 is out and is a console.

Nintendo wii and PS3 arn't even out so how can you say that you like them.

Nintendo and the PSP are no consoles but handhelds.

aka crap poll

ok let me fix it then.

edit: Woops. I cant edit the poll itself. I shouldn't have included the handhelds there, agree.

Also. It doesn't matter if you've tried them or not. Vote the console you would buy if you could choose just one...

till psp, i never had any console. now i got a x360 also. probably will play pc games rarely.
on the other hand, if they didnt have the option of piracy, i wouldnt even consider buying it.

I went for X360.. the reason because it still impresses me, and I cant see that any of the other next gens will do the same.. The WII has a great gimic, but its a gimic, I can't see it lasting forever (however, I know its going to sell .. LOTS..).. The Sony has made some horrible mistakes with the PS3, and with the attitude Sony has with the PSP's development it seems as if the mistakes will just keep coming. I guess we can't say for sure what's best just yet, but we can certainly have some strong opinions..

Yeah, because you've played all of the PS3 games and enjoyed their online service too. Rolling Eyes

This poll is about what consol you prefer.

Owning more than one or not haveing tried all, doesn't matter. Where do you stand today if you could pick JUST ONE.

well, i voted on what i'll be getting next. It's the nintendo wii. The xbox 360 isn't impressive enough for me, and the PS3 is a long way off. Christmas should be good Smile

I remember putting up a similar poll right after E3 2006.

Then the PS3 was the big hitter.

Do you guys think the X360 now leads becaus we know more of the PS3 or because of the DVD firmware hack?

On a board like this hacks are perhaps a small factor in its popularity especially when you see people saying that dual layer DVD media is too expensive (in reference to burning 360 isos) and others saying that they wouldn't purchase a machine if piracy wasn't an option.

I think the sole biggest factor is visibility. The 360 had a headstart on the competitors of a year or so and people have had the chance to try it out and get a feel for what the machines all about. After the tame launch the titles have got better and better with the multi format titles on the 360 putting their PC counterparts to shame (even though the machine only costs £210-290), plus there are still some real heavy hitters to come like GOW.

The 360 is in everyones face whether they like it or not and as its the only next gen console out its the one thats freshest in everyones mind plus the only one on that list that actually has a userbase hence the reflection in the percentages IMO. Smile

I honestly think its through fear of the PS3 and lack of Wii fan boys.. Now I'm not being nasty against Wii lovers by that statement, I just think there is an abundance of X360 fan boys here, and a lack of Wii fan boys, I think the poll would show different results (far more in favour of the Wii) if we didn't have so many warez heads..

As for the PS3, I think the shitty changes in hardware have resulted in a massive drop in hype.. the only buyers left are the annoying kind of Fan Boy who wont take facts as answers to why no one likes sony.. Razz

I agree with both you guys ([sYn] and StarShine)

ONE thing's for sure though. The next gen console war is crazy. It's impossible to predict.

I look at the Wii and it MAY have the same success as the DS. But there is a big chance people saying "well, meh, the controller isn't THAT fun to use. I want better graphics and a normal controller!!"

I look at the PS3 and think it'll probably end up getting the best exclusives this time around as well. And with that keeping theyr role as market leader. But then there's the price, the PSP and the UMD, theyr bad PR and theyr unproven network features, the SIXAXIS with seems like last minute throw in tilt function (and it seems they are almost forceing devs to support it)..

I look at the X360 and I see that they're doing many things right this time around. It feels more solid as a console than the Xbox 1. XBL is great, the hardware is good and so on. But then there's also Japan - hateing it, the Wii and PS3 not out yet and greedy micro transactions...

I'm just confused - and that makes me so interested in it.
