When I switched from PC to console in January of 08, I figured I'd just buy what the most people I knew had. Well, that ended up being the Wii, and I'm NOT buying one of those. But other than that, most people had the 360. Since then, I've encouraged my brother and another friend of mine to buy the 360. I have several more friends that are seriously considering it now that the price drop is here.

Quite frankly, the most annoying thing for me about buying a console so far has been the "console war". With PC gaming it was always the "death of PC gaming" stories that annoyed me. Now the console war annoys me, and I totally forgot how stupid people can be about it. It almost ruins the thrill for me to the point where I've stopped coming to sites like this. (Nothing against the site. I think the stories and articles are great, but the forums contain an unbelievable amount of completely uneducated armchair analysis and just plain retardation.)
