You have a pretty unusual lineup, Bodhesatva. Do you buy a lot of used games, and are still waiting for the price on current-gen titles to drop? Rent a lot of games? I think the games you have listed are good, but not the kind that I would expect to drive gamers to purchase all 3 current-gen consoles.

World of Warcraft, Crysis, NWN2 and Bioshock (easily the best version) are all wonderful on PC (and, although I don't care for them, a lot of people would say Portal and Team Fortress 2). The only downside is that one of those will destroy your life.

Anyway, my top ten *excluding* DS, PC and PSP (to stay on-topic since the other three don't really fit all that well into defined generations anyway):

1. Metroid Prime 3

2. Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles

3. Final Fantasy CC: MLaaK

4. Super Smash Bros. Brawl

5. Mario Galaxy

6. WarTech

7. Culdcept Saga

8. Assault Heroes

9. Geometry Wars

10. Pac-Mac CE

Note 1: these are, incidentally, in close-to-actual order with Metroid Prime 3 being, far and away, the best game I've played this generation with RE and FFCC hot on its heels.

Note 2: I did *not* include any games that were re-releases/updates of previous-generation (or more) titles (e.g. PlayStation classics; XBLA re-issues; VC games and so on).

Glad to see the mass effect love! It's a great game that doesn't get it's dues IMO.

DS: FF III,TWEWY
PSP: FFCC, GOW Chains of olympus
Wii: SMG, No more Heroes
PS3: R&C, Uncharted
X360: Eternal Sonata, Ace Combat 6

It's a fair question and I'm aware of the issue. I've found that on both the PS3 and 360 in particular, DL titles have comprised a majority of my favorites (for example, my top 5 games for my PS3 that I own are Stardust, Pixeljunk Monsters, EchoChrome, Shadow of the Colossus and Ninja Gaiden Sigma, and only one of those is an actual disc-based game made specifically for the PS3). My console buying decisions have been predicated on a variety of factors, including:

1) I got the PS3 60 GB used for 200 dollars, and works like a charm. I use it frequently, if not majoratively, as a Blu Ray player. Several of my other systems (PSP in particular) I bought at lower-than-average prices either through a sale or through my former job as a Toys R Us employee.

2) I now have a very good job, I'm single with practically no financial responsibilties, so even now as I'm a substantial percentage of my pay check every week I have a great deal of expendable income to spare.

3) I'm an administrator here and have started to do reviews as well. I wanted to own all systems both to expand my viewpoint (and see the "other side" of the argument, as it were) and to allow me to review more titles.

360: GoW, Orange Box, Bioshock (all better on PC)
PS3: MGS4, Uncharted, Resistance
Wii: NMH
PC: Crysis, Orange Box
