    choose a Next Genration console.

    Like XBox 360 or PS3.

    So how did you people choose and or rather pick and was it easy for you or did it take you a while to make your mind up.

    I know my mind is still up in the air. Oh well I may just wait another year unless THQ doesn't put SD VS Raw 08 on PS2 again, then I'll have no choice but to get one when that time comes but until then my mind is up in the air.

    I myself have a PS2 that is now broken. So I need to buy a new PS2 or a PS3. I have asked for the Wii for christmas, and will buy the PS3 myself, eventually. If I don't buy it before next christmas, I'll ask for it then when it will only be $400 or so. Xbox has and always will be inferior. The controllers are too bulky, the controls are difficult for some games (eg. Tony Hawk games) and it does not hold many appealing titles. About the only main reason I would even think of owning an Xbox 360 is Halo 3 and it's fast loading time.

    XBOX 360 RULLESSS MAN! You should seriously get it if you play online. If your really interested into online then xbox 360 is for you. If you prefer more single player games, And if you prefer kind of anime games. Such as super smach bros and baseball and stuff. I suggest Wii. But if you like single player shooters and driving and such. PS3.

    PS3 sucks in every way possible. I chose the 360 based off that. :]

    Wii it's hella fun don't underestimate the graphics, it pwns ps3 and xbox, and it's alaround better and if your gonna say i don't like the wireless controller, or it could hit the tv, they sell the regular ones too.

    Whoa!
    Bullshi.t yellow alert!
    This guy obviously falls into the "100% 360 fanboy" group.
    Back to the topic now.
    I would either buy PS3 or Wii.
    PS3 because i've been sticking with Sony since Playstation number uno and it never failed me.
    Wii because i like when someone mixes apples and oranges.

    I'd say 360. I have one and there great. The game line up is great and xbox live is fun. Plus i'm not a playstation fan.

    have you ever even held a 360 controller? they are light and fit right into your hands and are very easy to use. ive also played american wasteland and project 8 ( tony hawk games) and the controls are very easy to use.

    it has many appealing titles, maybe not to you, but to many other people, so please state it as an opinion and not as fact.

    anyway, id personally say 360, because xbox live cant be beaten and it has great titles and amazing graphics.

    Yes I have. I have also played Tony Hawk games on each system. When you have to hip transfer some little thing while in the air at the end of a 2,000,000 point combo that you have been trying to get for the last 2 hours, and you press L+R and let go at slightly different times, it will turn you and make you die. Now normally this wouldn't be a problem. But when you have come out of a manual that has the balance of a bowling ball on a knife, as well as a grind like that, and you have a bunch of other things going through your head. AND you are in mid air when you realize you are dead if you don't hip transfer. THEN it is a pain in the fricking arse. I have in fact held the controllers and a ps2/3 controller fits so much nicer, and snugger. I'd also like you to name 20 xbox games that you have played more than 40 hours on each. Or atleast beat the game on each. Xbox has what.... Gears, Halo...what.. Project 8? haha. It loses, Xbox fails.

    Just upgrade yer pc.
    Why waste your money on a console that will eventually "go out of fashion" whereas you can upgrade your computer, which will look better, be cheaper to keep up to date and have cheaper games.
    Pcs are also the better choice for fps ;)

    I mean Next Gen games are about €80 whereas new PC games are €50-€60
    Imo
