Sure I had fun. But not nearly as much fun as felt it would take to justify the cost. To give an idea of games I like, UT2004 is probably my favorite FPS of all time (even though I have UT3) and I do enjoy most other types of games including RPG, fighting, racing, etc. (though most of my favorites come from Nintendo and my favorite platform games are SM64 and Crash Bandicoot).

Re: Best Current Gen. Console?
best is a sub-optimal word to use here
in terms of hardware, the ps3 is a winner hands down
however the xbox 360 still has a wider userbase, a dedicated online service, and a wider selection of titles, as well as a more attractive price tag
until the ps3 drops in price or a 'killer app' comes along, we can expect the xbox 360 to remain more popular amongst the masses

Re: Best Current Gen. Console?
I'm actually suprised at the little votes for the nintendo wii, sure not many people have it, but it is the next generation console. Totally different controllers, different gameplay and basic a whole new generation when you think about it.
I can almost garuntee you that there will be more consoles like the nintendo wii coming soon.

I own a Nintendo Wii, I love Brawl and Corruption, but I find the Wii to be in a league of its own. Nintendo's games are just downright fun, but their consoles aren't targeted at any sort of new technology or hardware (motion sensitivity is not new, but it was done very well for the Wii).

Re: Best Current Gen. Console?
It sickens me how 360 is winning, it's just a dumbed down PC with a crappy controller and you have to pay for the online.
THE WII is more for family/friend play however it does have some competitive games.
The ps3 is like a better version of the 360 in every way.
-$50 more
-Blu Ray
-Better Graphics
-Better controls
-Same games.
The wii has so much potentional however Nintendo is too stupid to live up to it. I would've buy it $50 more for better graphics, I would pay $20 for a headset, I would pay an extra $20 to get rid of stupid friend codes for every freaking game.
NO WAY CAN YOU ARGUE WITH ME... IF the developer makes good controls, no console can beat the Wii's FPS. Try out Medal of Honor Heroes 2, especially for the online. The game itself isn't a good FPS however it's the wii's capabilities that makes it so good.

I think your being a little harsh on the 360, but I generally agree with you. I've got a Wii and love its innovative controls, yet Nintendo could have pushed out the boat a bit on the graphics front. I still need to witness a PS3 in action... hopefuly its graphics live up to my expectations...

Re: Best Current Gen. Console?
I'm a die-hard fan of Playstations, but the XBox 360 has me right now. There's a much larger gamebase, and it's more popular. Sure, online costs a bit, and it's annoying, but you get used to it. For hardware, though, the PS3 wins without a doubt.
The Wii can be fun at times, but the 360 has me this time.

Re: Best Current Gen. Console?
I love my PS3 and I've played the Wii and 360 before. True that the 360 has more games but I use my PS3 for everything. The games that DO come out on the PS3 are pretty good...like MGS4! :D

Re: Best Current Gen. Console?
The PS3 can do anything the other consoles can do and more! It has around 50GB of storage on it's Blu-Ray disks meaning nothing can beat its graphics or sound. You don't have to pay to play online. "Home" is going to be released soon, you can search it up in Google. Has a great interface, you can chat with your friends by voice or text. Almost all games are now playable online so you don't need to throw the game away once you've finished it. Has a large HD for storing music, movies and pictures. Has a built in internet browser and SixAxis motion sensitive wireless controllers.
