The PS3 is special to us fans because it can stand toe to toe with the winner this GEN game wise, something very difficult to achieve. I had to have the PS1, PS2, NES, SNES , BUT I don't have to buy the Wii this Gen and I can still get the big games.

That's really all personal taste, I know a number of people that never owned the lead platform, often times getting their big games as well, they didn't care fo the exclusives for the other platform so why buy it?

So basically what you're saying is the console is special because you like it, just like every other successful console ever be it that gens winner or not, hell many people still loved the dreamcast long after it died a horrible death and they had pretty special games too... just saying!

I owned the dreamcast, xbox before buying the PS2 which I did not want because they broke a lot, but to play the big games, and the sheer amont of support the ps2 got, I  took a chance on the PS2. I  had a thread about how I felt the xbox was better as a console than my ps2 which still today wont play either GOW games, but I got the PS2  because that's where the games were. This gen, I don't really have to buy the Wii unless I want Nintendo games.

It's not a matter of opinion, it's fact. Besides MH3 and Dragon Quest, the major games aren't Wii games, they are elsewhere and that's kind of weird for a console winner, but as a PS3 owner, I am loving it.

You see what you're not seeming to understand is that exactly what you're saying is opinion... "big games" are a matter of perception... just like leo-j talking about "AAA games" earlier.  As for this gen there have been a lot more "big games" on the PS3 and 360 because that's what they're hyped and marketed to be, same teams, same ideas, same games last gen, would never get the same kind of marketing budget or be hyped like they are, this gen it's just publishers protecting their investments.  Not really sure why people don't see this.

Anyway opinions are not facts, simple, what is a big game to you is not a big game to me, is not a big game to *throws random user out there* MakingMusic476, is not a big game to the average joe.
