i have a xbox 360, and im not really that impressed with it. I guess thats becasue there are really no good games for it. I want the PS3, from what ive seen there are going to be alot of good games to start. but once it comes out, with in 3 months the PC will be better then it.

Well, i've had a PS1, PS2 and i think most probably i'll be getting a PS3 when they arrive here in the UK soon! I've always liked the Play Stations, mainly for the Gran Turismo's :) Though i couldnt be without my PC too! (I love the Command and Conquer Series)

lol, i've been saving up for it for a while now, so i'm all prepared for when it comes out... I've head its going to be about £329 with a game over here, but not too sure! I'm just waiting for my local games store to start taking pre-orders for it :) I've just been getting into Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter on the PS2, I've always loved Ghost Recon on the PC, so i thought i'd give it a try on the PS2, it's great!

PC all the way. :)


Between DX10, the Crytek 2 Engine, Unreal 3 Engine, and the Doom 3 Engine, consoles won't be able to match PC when it comes to Next Gen gaming.

Have you seen Crytek/EA's Crysis? Screens here/Videos here.

I dont care as much for graphics as I do being able to sit in my lazy boy using a lil controller playing on my BIG screen. I HATE mouse and keyboard for games. I know its "better" but I hate it. Nice looking stuff you got there though.

Ive ALWAYS been a Nintendo person... i think they have ALWAYS had the BEST classics and RPG's... Legend of Zelda, Secret of Mana, Final Fantasy (though the newer ones are for PSX) Metroid games..they are all so much fun.. i feel the Wii is really going to make a come back.. if we can use backwerd compatability controlers for Wii games, that would top it all off... im sure you can because that is one of the great features about it... backwerds compat.. But i have alot of faith in Nintendo and will always bow and wave my hat to em. GO GO GO NINTENDO

Okay, I admit that I have not done any extensive research to fully backup my opinions, but I voted for the PS3. The Playstation consoles never failed me as far as performance and visuals go, the controllers are both ergonomic and down-to-earth, and it has a library of games that I enjoy. I won't be surprised if the PS3 will continue to offer the same things. Now I'm completely aware that the PS3 will be pricey, so that may be the only factor that will cause me to hold off on purchasing it when it comes out. And besides, I'm sure all stocks will be sold out before I get a chance, hehe.

GO PC!!

altho Ps3 does sound good...and most likely will have bugs the first few batches.....and you cant get it anyways unless you camped in front of the store to preorder it.....they're only gettting 400,000 ps3's on the launch date, couldnt make enough blu-ray drives on time..

PC graphics will be just as good as the PS3 when the new DirectX10 cards come out.
