First off, I'd prefer this to stay here and not moved to News because the real reason I'm posting this is to get a feel for what next gen console would be the best choice for me (um, and Iz, of course).

Last year (2008, so almost last year) was a very financially straining year, so I decided to wait until I receive my tax returns to get a new console. I had my mind on a Wii for a while, but after visiting a friend who has a 360, I'm sort of conflicted now. Then I had read a few comments on Amazon (I was browsing through some games) and a few reviewers were singing PS3 praises and I became even more conflicted.

I'm sure many of you have one (if not more than one) of these, so I was hoping that people might find a bit of time to give me their take. Also, does a potential financial fallout have much of an impact? I mean, I'd hate to spend so much money on something that will possibly be obsolete in the near future. Maybe "obsolete" isn't the best word to use, but I'm not sure how else to phrase it.

I swear, I'm not always so cautious when it comes to game related purchases. I bought the PS2, Gamecube and Xbox without much thought. It's just that the new equipment seems like more of an investment as a whole.

If you could be specific as to why/if you have a preference, that would be great. :)

Ok... so you want to debate this. Since you made the claim that YLOD has NOTHING to do with the HDD. Prove your case. You made the claim, now I'm all.. uh eyes.


Go ahead prove your shit. I'm gonna tear your shit the f*ck down you f*ckin cum drinkin, scrawny bitch..

can you not read? this is what i said earlier

its ok i understand i have to slow down when i talk to you

Ok prove your case. Apparently you forgot about the red blinking light that would show a totally different error at hand.

uhhh you ever think that maybe their PS3 is OVERHEATING?

If it over heats, it freezes (which is bad) or it simply shuts down (which is better than freezing).

Anyway, based upon what I've read online the yellow light could represent a variety of problems.

Anyway, The Jasper edition of the XBOX360 doesn't red ring. It's immune. That's why the Resident Evil 5 Ed. XBOX360s sell so well.

Just to point something out. The 2 latest gens of consoles, including this one, had the weakest hardware console winning by a landslide and the most powerful got their ass raped. So all you graphic junkies can suck a dick

It's true, the wii is the bitch's console, and yet it continues to trample the rest of the consoles on the market in terms of sales.

Gen1:
PS1/DC/N64 - PS1

Gen2:
PS2/XBOX/GC - PS2

Gen3:
PS3/XBOX360/Wii - Wii

I fully respect the Wii. It's not so much for a hardcore gamer but majority of their games are fun, imo.

The Wii confuses me. I can't get used to the controls.

Wii is just a tranny, doesn't know what it wants to be. Can't decide whether its casual or hardcore. Even with the likes of Super Mario Galaxy and Smash, people will still buy more WiiFit

The system's target market is women.

That's exactly what I said. It's idiots like these why Sony lied in the first place. These idiots just eat up their bullshit without thinking twice. It makes sense, though. Idiots know what idiots will believe.

Sony just spews bullshit non stop. It's all so hilarious! I don't see how anyone couldn't see past it.

Click here. This is exactly why they're losing the console race. They're stupid, arrogant, and don't care about their consumers. I remember good ol' Krazy Ken Kutaragi saying "We don't care. People will buy anything that has 'Sony' branded on it." It's ridiculous, and that's why I hate Sony. Anyone who follows them is basically accepting their ass rape.



This guy would've been BROKE. Ever since day 1 of its release, I've been able to find one. I hate Tretton. I think he's the stupidest one of all. I loved that interview EGM had with him. Classic. He sounded like such a jackass. HAHA. His name's Jack Tretton. LAWLZ. Get it? Jackass?? Oh, nevermind...

I find that EGM is probably the best Gaming Magazine around. The articles are both entertaining and informative. It's the Maxim magazine of the gaming world. However, it would be a better magazine if "Francesca Reyes" editor in chief of the "Official Dreamcast Magazine" (IMO: the most hilarious gaming magazine of all time) would take it over.

*sigh*

Yup I totally agree. They were the best. Really great, smart, entertaining journalists. I was sad to see it go.

Omg, you read that magazine too?! Dude, that thing was f*ckin awesome. Do you remember the Christmas issue? No other magazine did things like this:

rite noww... i waitten 4 PS3 or 360 da goo doownn..

hope i can hotlink this shit

I'm going to have to sexpose some people in Gmod now.

lol hey didnt i post those in MP once

HMMMM.
I want a PS3. Does PS3 have more pros than XBOX 360 ?

Not really. It depends on what you're after. PS3 has the graphics, and that's about it.

What about XB0X 360? What does it have to offer more than PS3?

Better exclusives.
