Forums - Gaming - What Do You Like/Dislike About your Console/Handheld?

Cross-X on 09 June 2010

No matter how much you love your gaming machine, there's always at least one aspect of it that you dislike.

So share ONE (1) Thing you like about your consoles/handhelds and ONE (1) Thing you don't like about your console/handheld. The aspects you like/dislike can relate to ANYTHING about the machines. Whether it be, online sevice, features, etc. And only mention the consoles/handhelds you own.

Here's mine:

  Like Dislike
PS3 The Games :D Trophy Syncing
PSP Wide Bright Screen Analogue stick uncomfortable
Wii It's small in size Wii Friend Code
DS Touch Screen Stylus Size

Putting aside the games (or lack of in the case of the Wii) I would say:

Wii Games, lots of innovation this gen and bringing back what I've always enjoyed about gaming that seemed lacking last gen. Friend codes, with not many really good ideas have been capitalized on like they should have being a runner up.
DS The mass of games to choose from is crazy FPS games are lacking when they shouldn't be
PS3 Some really nice exclusives Load times/installs, sixaxis being really basic, not used, and unresponsive as a runner up
PSP Any everything in one device Lack of good games, there's plenty of games to play but not one I'd tell people you MUST buy a PSP for THIS game, Crisis Core and Monster Hunter being the closest things.
360 The best traditional controller around Paying for a rather basic service like XBL, yes there are some nifty features not on other consoles but I could care less I just want to play online I could care less to chat with anyone >_>, runner up being lack of exclusives

It was hard for me to think up anything I really dislike about the PS3 heh, but then again not much came to mind about what I really liked, seems to be the console that does the least wrong but hasn't done anything I find exceptional either lol.   Wii I love for the games but has obvious flaws, I really wish some people would make some no brainer games like a lightsaber game with Wii Motion Plus support and online duels, I'd buy that in a heartbeat.   360 I would love if I had more exclusives to buy, coupled with the pay for online service means I buy all multiplats on PS3, which is a shame since 360 if it wasn't for the fact that you pay for online with 360 I'd likely buy all my multiplats on it since it lacks the load times and has a really nice controller to play said games with (except for fighters)
