  • Best Game Console

    It seems like Micro and Sony haven't put out a new console in a while, are there any in the works? If not, I might break down and get one, so whats the best?

    Do you have friends with consoles? If so, buy whatever they have. No point getting a PS3 if your buddies are all on XBox, or vice verse.

    Don't bother with a Wii unless you're an 80 year old woman.

        The xbox 360 has the best games, in my opinion.

          Xbox and PS3 deliver pretty much the same quality of games, but Xbox has better online service (though there is a yearly charge).

          The Wii is good if you have a table with one leg shorter than the others and need something to balance it on.

            Xbox is better. They're the market leader, with more exclusive games, early releases on downloadable content, a better online service, and a larger player base. Plus, they haven't been hacked.

            New consoles will probably be coming out in 2013, as far as I understand. There's been some rumors over the past few months about a new Xbox.

                What happens in 2013? Have you been told that you have 1 1/2 years to live?

                    Get them all! I have 23 already. Great fun.

                    Never play with them, though.

                      Is there anything to the idea that the PS3 is still a superior (if more expensive) Blu Ray player to a standalone? Have been thinking of getting one, but it's largely for that.

                        Well, yes and no.

                        Netflix, Hulu Plus, Sunday Ticket, and a few others might not be doable on blu ray players. I think the PS3 is superior for games, based on graphics alone but I also dont do anything multiplayer on anything but a PC.

                          Pssh... Xbox 360 is better for most games graphically. IGN always does the XBOX/PS3 comparisons and XBOX is always better in resolution, lighting, etc., plus somehow always has a better frame rate than PS3 games.

                          Check videos on youtube that show frame rate differences between consoles.

                          Here's Dead Rising 2, as an example, with a clear win by the 360:
