One of the biggest reasons for me...

Cool, so you like the 3DS better because you can play Pilotwings Resort

 

Seriously, to be honest, that is indeed a HUGE plus, DVDs look dated and honestly I can't go back since I got my Blu-ray.

this... DVD look like what VHS's looked like when DVD first came out.

i can hardly stand watching a movie on DVD the picture and sound quality is that bad

Really?  I looooves my Blu Ray, don't get me wrong, but I have no issues with DVD, I still buy them from time to time.  I only buy Blu Ray on new movies or something that has a deal on it.  I'm a technophile but I'm not picky.  besides, PS3's have good upscaling, so the DVD quality is pretty good when watched on an HDTV.  

But yeah, I like that I can plug in my external Hard Drive to my PS3 and watch all the movies and porn I want on there! 

As for the whoile "liking a brand is retarded" comment, I'm not really seeing how.  I'm not so ignorant as to block out others, but I do like the playstation brand because...well, it seems to feel the same way about gaming I do: Variety, simplicity, and a lot of good solid singleplayer. Games like Heavy Rain and LittleBigPlanet are pretty damn innovative, and nothing like it is on 360 or Wii (far as I know), and I like that they made Move an OPTION rather than a REQUIREMENT! the best motion games on the system are the ones that are good with or without PS Move, and that's just a really cool option.  Resistance 3 is a GOOD game that happens to have Move support. Killzone 3 is a GOOD game with Move support.  Kinect Adventures is a gimmick.  Wii Sports ia  gimmick.  PS Move Heroes is a Gimmick. 

When I see the Kinect allowing me to play GOOD core games (like Steel Battalion), or the Wii incorporating GOOD motion control in its games (Skyward Sword), then I'll be interested.  Until then, I could survive almsot entirely on my PS3.  

Plus I like that it has all the motion control options of the Wii, and all the great games of the 360.  it really does only do everything. 

what kind and how many giggs?

i also agree with your post. i have a brand of icecream i stick to and general rules about gaming i stick to like having dedicated franchises as a must, now if not expecting the best is retarted then thats wht i'll be, but i bet i'll get the most out of my product when its all said and done.

i wanted to quote and report the person who posted that but it would be a waste of my time to do either.

Xbox 360! i mean just look at the library of games!!
the online is perfect! i just love everything about xbox



I trust no one, not even myself.

Wii.

The reasons: Free online, hardware reliability, the controller, the Miis, and the games.

I choose the wii because of its new way to play games, playing metroid prime 3 with the wiimote is one gaming experience I will never forget. Oh and I love niche and original experiences and the wii has plenty of those, it may sound crazy but I prefer a niche game that takes chances than a AAA that plays it safe.



PS3 

I despise The XBOX1 and XBOX360 only good for FPS Games. I like MS but they should stick to PC and get out of Console scenesince there don't know what he hell they are doing. 

also 99% of my Gameing is Japanese Imports to as wellas hardare.

I prefer the Xbox and Nintendo. Xbox because it's an american product and Nintendo because of their great and classic first party games and because i have supported nintendo since childhood and always will.

I'll say this in every thread like this, anybody who worships a brand name is a retard.

That Claymore sure is cool.  He's such a rebel.  Of course, he is on a video game site, he took it upon himself to create a profile, and he logs in to post on the forums.  But still, he's so cool.

Look, guy. The name of the thread is "Which consolde do you prefer, and why?"  And most of us that posted here posted which console we prefer and our reasons for preferring that console.  Your comment added nothing to the discussion.  Nothing at all.  Get the fuck out.

Zing!  Nicely said.

Also, I note most posts aren't worshiping a brand but are actually fairly mundane but sensible in content such as "I really like films and want to watch in as high def as possible so BR in PS3 is a plus" or "I really like social gaming and online and I therefore prefer Live and 360 due to the better social gaming elements of the service".  Hardly brand worship.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Whoohooo!  patriotism!  yeah!  america!  USA! USA!

I never got that attitued either, its not confined  to gaming, i know a bunch of people that will only buy american cars even though alot of them suck and break down quicker. To each his own, but ive served 5 years in the military so I think i did more for my country than buying a video game product
