This is stupid, I have every console known to man (almost). The one I play the most is SNES, it has nothing to do whit the consoles and it's all about the games. The big guys like sony and micro only want games to be made fast, thats why everything is Doom with the walls in a different color. Now Nintendo has lost it's mind and SEGA is dead. Games these days are all hype and no game, ps2 still have a bunch of good games cuz they had to compete with Nintendo and SEGA with psxso they kept it up for a while. ps3 and 360 is just about who can sell the most commercials online.

My first console was a SNES, it was far out. I even had the bazooka and gun to play duckhunt. Over at my best friend they had a Sega 16bit megadrive, which was pretty neat as well. Then came the big fat darkgrey playstation. Totally new experience with Coolboarders, Carmageddon and Gran Turismo as my favourite games. My brother took it when I got my own crib and started living on my own. Untill like a month ago I hadn't been playing or owning any consoles for a long time. But one local store had a stockload of brand new PS2 Slim's for 69,- EUR. I couldn't resist and bought the thing. I love to play racegames like Need for Speed (underground+pro street) or Gran Turismo in Rally mode. For now my only wish is Pro Evo Soccer to go with that. Then I need to get my hands on a MEMOR32 to play downloaded games. I don't want to open my case and modchip it. I think it's good value for the money unlike it's follow-up: the PS3. Sure it has the best features of all consoles, but beside the fact that it looks hideous it is also way to pricey! The Wii is ideal for the people who weren't ever gaming before. It's innovative and fun, but the specs, (childish) games and cartoony looking graphics will sure keep the diehard gamer away from it. You could in fact just settle right in between there somewhere and get a Xbox 360, which is like the PS2 good value for the money, but then in a kinda nextgen way. It is not the console itself which makes the fun. You can have as much fun on a SNES as you could have with a PS3. Everybody has another taste. You just pick one that fit yours and go along with that. I for instant will stick to my PS2 for the time and totally hate the Nintendo DS (ok, it's not a console), while btw the Wii is pretty cool (atleast tennis and mariokart).

I gave my ps2 to my bro for Christmas and the only reason I did that was so i can get a new one.

PS2 + Pro Evo = Not enough hours in the day I tell thee! Absoulute class!
I think when I purchase a HDTV I'll be getting the PS3 then, but getting one now whilst I cant justify it on my regular TV, seems a bit pointless as I want the full PS3 experience, BluRay and all.
HDTV first, then PS3.
Peas out, Happy New Year everybody.

Average American consumers wait WAY too long to let go of their beloved electronics… Not always bad if you're really enjoying them still, of course, but because of this US manufacturers HAVE to support legacy products much longer than they want to and should… And that's why the PS2 is still used so much (plus the fact it and the original Xbox are the most pirate-friendly consoles of all time).

Everything now is much better than a PS2, even the PSP with technically inferior hardware. Ppl that say it's better than all the other consoles are probably still using VHS and will need a converter box on Feb… Get with the times and see what you've been missing out. Oh, and by the way, my vote for the best consoles goes to the Xbox 360 and the PC (yeah)…

"The best bet is just to buy them all if you can afford it and then you can tell everyone to shut up because you have first hand experience" L M A that's so NOT true!
You don't have to buy all the consoles yourself to have 1st hand exp.
What friends are for? Got any? Ever heard of a concept called sharing?

I would have expected people posting on a website about "releases" to be purchasing every console with the money they save on games. I know I do, and I gotta say, my 360 gets the most spin. I like playing first-person shooters online though, so of course I'm going to lean toward it. Then again, I suppose I could always play them on PC if I could ever stop grabbing things with Newsleecher…

Write any thread about consoles and out come the fanboy's lol it's always a riot to read. All the consoles have their merits, all of them are fun to play for different reasons depending on what type of game you want to play. The best bet is just to buy them all if you can afford it and then you can tell everyone to shut up because you have first hand experience and your not just another simpering whining fanboy.
