Which gaming platform do you like the most?
Which gaming platform do you like the most? Which one would you buy if you had money just for one?
(PC, PS, Xbox, Wii, etc.)
what I like the most? well, if we're not speaking from generations, I'd say the original playstation. between that and the n64 are what I like to call "the golden days of gaming" so much ground was broken there, and it was amazing. I hate how everyone is trying to use technical specs nowadays as something to argue about in regards to gaming (then again, it's always been there, so you've got that) Also, Consoles were simple back then, and not trying to be PC's. I really don't consider a PC to be a "gaming" console, as it is seen as much more than for video games. Don't get me wrong, the pc is still technologically superior. But they aren't designed for gaming unless you or the seller (or whoever is putting it together) designs it for such. What I love about console gaming is simplicity. just pop the game in and get started. no installation, no updating, just gaming. this is especially true of the older consoles
At the moment, the PS3. This is purely personal, simply because I like PS1, 2 and 3 games far more than most of what the 360 has to offer, rather than technical preferences. I'd almost say Steam but it's limited depending on your computer, and that's more of a platform than PC.
My favourite concept however is the Virtual Boy by Nintendo. Its design was OK but suffered heavily from poor usability, and one reviewer had to tape it to his head to get the most comfort. A good idea, but absolutely shoddy implementation and required far more testing. Not to mention it's library of games had neither quantity nor quality.
My favorite is Xbox and now I am excited for the Xbox One! Especially now that they have fixed some of the problems people had with it.
I'm glad they reversed those policies, and i hope they don't try to go back to them. I still wish they wouldn't require the new kinect though. They could easily shave a good sum from the price by cutting that thing out of "necessity"
I agree with you on the Kinect. I never have used one but I'm going to look at the bright side and be happy they fixed the two biggest problems it had.
Assuming you mean a gaming PC, probably the PS3. Seems to have the best exclusives these days. A PC does more, of course, but gamewise? It has by far the weakest exclusives of the systems.

I would always prefer my PC against any console though I want a more wide view how you enjoy gaming, list some reasons with your console of choice and if a PC setup list some specs none the less do mention why that way is a better gaming experience for you.

Do you prefer to game on PC or Console, why?I recently wrote a hub about this and most of my feedback is only from other PC players. I'm interested in hearing both sides, without any arguments ensuing over which is better. I just want to hear preferences and reasoning for them.

Preference Of Video Games: PC or Console?Many people are undecided on prference as to play games for PC or go buy a PS3 or XBOX and enjoy their games that way. I'm interested in getting a general consensus.

Gaming PC vs gaming consoles. Which one do you prefer?I wasn't sure about what to get, a powerful PC with a good video card, or a PS3. I went for the PC for two reasons: 1) I needed a new PC anyways, 2) Mouse and keyboard beats a controller any day!What would you choose?
