Which do you prefer, and why? I'm not much of a gamer, but I can see reasons to own all three :)

well you wont get one because the ps3 MIGHT drop the price in about 5 years. Sony is actually still in the hole from selling all those ps3s and wont get out of it for awhile. AND the ps3 has a blu ray drive which is very expensive right now and the prices for one of them babies wont be goin down in a long time.

Sony said that the PS3 was going to be a generational leap, but it doesnt seem like that to me. Look at the graphics compared to the Xbox 360, its basically the same thing. The SIXAXIS controller bugs out on its own, plus you have to keep plugin it in to the system and take it out to use the wireless feature everytime you turn it on. Plus it has 8 freaking CPU's but it cannot multitask, not even custom tracks.
The Wii seemd really fun, but you need money inorder to actually have fun with it. The batteries only last 20 hours max. The classic controller connects to the Wii-mote and contribute to the battery power life. The graphics arent that much big, but u can expect that from Nintendo. They could have atleast made it a little more detailed, only a handfull of games look clean. Most of the games are inresponsive to the wii-mote and that makes the game boring. There is no online multiplayer and wont be any for quite sum time.
The 360 has been out for a year now and i've seen tons of games that are good for it. personally I would get that if you do not own it already. The controller is better, the graphics are clean, the frame rate is generally good for most games, good backwards compatibility, the best online multiplayer availible, and what more can I say. The Xbox 360 has my vote.

It has got to be XBOX 360. It beats competition this time around with a not so good PS3. I'm not sure about Wii.
I'm a gamer, but I don't see any reason to own all three to burn a hole in my pocket when XBOX 360 is the best around here.
Good day, bye.

Personally, if I could, I would get all three. but if i'd have to choose, one and only one, i'd take the PS3 because of the games that are exclusive to it. Some of which are the Final Fantasy Series, which i'm a huge fan of. I'm also looking foward to future Gundam games, which have tendency to be released on the PS game systems. I'm kinda disappointed with how Crossfire turned out.

Im not much of a gamer... actually i dont play much games.. But everytime i do i always get nintendo cause they are the ones who started it all and they are innovative and the rest just copy them. I also like their characters like mario, zelda and so on.

i definitely prefer the XBOX360. it is much cheaper and so much better than the ps3. The ps3 is way overpriced UNLESS you just want it for the blu ray. i have no need for the blu ray. i think its just a waste of money. movies arent even that much different so why pay so much more for it? i speak from experience too since i BOUGHT ONE! tryin to get rid of it too. any buyers? haha
