Your Next Gen Console (s)

[XMScott]

You can chose multiple options for those buying and playing 2 or all 3 consoles.

[Dave _from_Kiev]

The PC isnt a console sir

WiiPC here also

[LZMF1]

there is no "all 3" option

[d0uche_n0zzle]

Fancy fuckface. :action-sm

[Chester'sLiver]

there is no "all 3" option
You can choose all three, I did. I have a 360 and it rules, I was able to reserve a Wii and will get that Sunday, but I will wait for the second shipment and maybe a price drop to get a PS3.

[Chlorofirm]

I checked PS3 and 360. Don't have either yet, but will probably get a 360 next week (after I sell my PS3 that I'm getting tomorrow, of course). Wii I'm not convinced on yet, but not saying I won't buy it.

[LZMF1]

[LilJimmyRbinson]

I haven't turned on my PS2 in months, but I'm not giving Micro$oft any money so sometime next summer I'll buy the PS3.

[sobi]

have a 360, and probably gonna sell it soon. I MIGHT buy a PS3 for personal use sometime next year.

[BusyChild04]

Got a 360 and I'm thinking about getting a wii this saturday night (12am). and a PS3 waaaay later on. Once the game library gets going and they fix the bugs. Although I'm just thinking about building my 360 library since I only have Madden for it. Maybe pick up a game or two instead of the wii.I don't like zelda and not really into any of the other launch games so maybe I'll wait. Don't know. I'm undecided.

Ok, so this board is decidedly anti PS and anti Sony. But it is also anti Microsoft, so the excludes X360. So that leaves only Wii then? Can we all agree that Nintendo rocks in every aspect?

Have you seen how many XBox Live Gamertags are in our Sigs? I don't think this board is anti-360 at all. There are some people that are hung up on the Microsoft connection.

I don't have sigs turned on, and I wouldn't know what a gamer tag looks like anyway. It's just weird with all the people who blast Microsoft on this board there is still very strong support for the xbox (I still don't know why anyone would pay $400 for a stripped-down pc). I just expected more support for the wii given what I've seen here.

[LetsDoThisLucas]

Has anyone seen that episode yet?
yup very funny

[FAngel]

Nintendo Wii all the way, that's what I say! (No, it doesn't rhyme the same. Just go with it.)

I'll probably pick up a 360 later on when the price comes down a little bit more.

I'm content with a PS2 for now. Fuck Sony. Goddamn rich cunts.:action-sm

Im not anti Sony, at least i dont think i am, i know i wasnt.
I owned the PS1, PS2 and have a PSP.

But for 600 bucks i could get a sick video card and play games for less than $60 each.

And the Wii just looks........... well, we will see what happens with the Wii.

Honestly, ive never even played an XBOX. Nobody i know has ever owned one, and ive never had the need to buy one.

[Bill Lehecka]

I don't have sigs turned on, and I wouldn't know what a gamer tag looks like anyway.

They kinda look this this:

And they're pretty sweet...

And all consoles are stripped down PCs. Some are more powerful than others. You could put a Wii on your computer with the right emulator.

[BeezerBlanks]

PC+Wii for me.

:icon_mrgr
Add me to that list.

[Joe Avezzano]

I would have to agree I guess, wii+pc. If all consoles are stripped down PCs, then I might as well get the cheapest one that is also the most fun, and save the big bucks for SLI and shit like that.

[abudabit]

Has anyone seen that episode yet?

You mean the episode that aired LAST week? No, no one's seen it yet. :action-sm

I don't even know when that show comes on.

[jimmyjimjimz]

I'm gettin a Wii on Sunday

I havent been this excited about a console launch since super nintendo.

If they ever consider lowering the price for ps3, I'll consider getting one.

[BIV]

360, all the way. Fantastic console. I may get the Wii once the web browser comes out for it, but until then...meh. I'm yet to read a review that didn't say the controller was tiring. Yeah yeah, it's light, I get it, but I play for hours at a time and the nunchuck is not condusive to that.

PC gaming is for faggots.

[ZeoVGM]

360, all the way. Fantastic console. I may get the Wii once the web browser comes out for it, but until then...meh.

Uh, so you're going to wait for the.. browser.. to come out before playing a game system?

That's pretty silly.

I'm yet to read a review that didn't say the controller was tiring.

So in other words, you've barely read up on Wii since like March?

It's been known for a very long time that it factually is NOT tiring unless you're a disgusting fat slob who would probably get tired playing Guitar Hero.

The games only need slight movements. If you get tuckered out playing Wii, you need some help. Really.

I have not seen one review that said you will get tired while using the WiiMote. On GameStop there is a Wii launch party video where a bunch of fat editors played it for the first time. One guy played almost the whole time and said that he never got tired. The event lasted about 4 and a half hours.

Video of it here: click (http://www.gamespot.com/events/wiilaunch/index.html?tag=subnav;wiilaunch)

On the right hand side, half way down a link says "On the Spot - 11/10/06 WII"

[XMScott]

Sony-PSP 0 0%
Nintendo-DS 0 0%
Nintendo-Gameboy Advance 0 0%
High-end PC/Mac/*nix

Thanks for more or less ruining my inquiry.

3 handhelds over a year old, GBA, please
And the PC........

I specifically posted "NEXT GEN CONSOLE", as in the console generation launching today, sunday and whenever the 360 launched.

If anyone that posts under me could kindly not include any of the handhelds and the PC that would be awesome, cause i didnt include them, thanks. Ugh, the worst part is nobody even requested those devices to be added.

[martianvirus]

I already voted. But yet I have a DS. ???

[BIV]

More like a straw/camel's back thing. I also want the initial run to finish first and for some better games to come out. It's more of a novelty system anyway, I'm in no rush.

I usually rely on Game Informer for my reviews, they tend to be unbias. The latest article I read still said it wore on your arm a little.

I still don't believe this for a second. There is 2 settings, twitch and big movements. I don't see how you can have the small movements and not lose accuracy.

Time will tell.


People actually play Guitar Hero? I thought that was just a ruuuuse.

[martianvirus]

I’ll bet that over weight lazy people stay away from the Wii.

[XMScott]

I hate this thread now.........

Ah, it's okay poopsy. We'll stop fighting.

[martianvirus]

Microsoft has this new thing where PC players can play against Xbox360 players. (in Vista)

And now there is this:
Command & Conquer Comes to 360

When it becomes the best selling system of this gen, will it still be a "novelty" system?

It's not a "novelty". It's every bit as much of a system as 360 or PS3.

I usually rely on Game Informer for my reviews, they tend to be unbias. The latest article I read still said it wore on your arm a little.

Not only is GI wrong, but every game controls differently. None of the launch games, however, are going to put strain on your arm unless you're horribly out of shape.

Also, there's your problem: relying on that piece of shit for reviews. Some of the worst and most looked-down-upon reviews in the industry. The magazine that gave every Mario Party since the first below a 5.0 because the single player sucked. (Incredible bias against multiple different series, as proved there.)

I still don't believe this for a second. There is 2 settings, twitch and big movements. I don't see how you can have the small movements and not lose accuracy.

Time will tell.

Seeing as how I've played a few games myself, I can agree with the vast majority of impressions that say this.

[ChimneyFish]

I'm not getting any, until I start seeing some games I might be interested in.


First person sucks demon cock!!!!:icon_evil
