Gran Turismo and I migrated my Madden love over to PS1 over the years. It has just evolved since then. But I have owned almost every mainstream console since NES.

Me and my two brothers decided on getting the PS1 over the N64 after being a Sega genesis owner over the super Nintendo. Ever since then Sony has never let us down. And all the sentimental value places on the playstation brand after countless summer vacation days and nights playing the console together.

back in the day wen i played a demo of MGS on the ps1 i loved it especially the cardboard boxes

so i picked up a ps1 and with the fading of good games on my N64 i promised myself i would buy the ps2

wen i had my ps2 none of the games on GC and Xbox appealed to me so i stuck with ps brand and now own a ps3 with full B/C

For the PS1 and PS2 it was the very large amount of really good games (and FFVII initially drew me in). It seemed they decided to go an opposite route with the PS3 so I did too.

loll, what will it take for you to come back!

More good exclusives.

AND YOU TOOK THE PICTURE I MADE!

:-p

I got a ps3 over a Wii or XBOX 360, because I never had a playstation console, and the 60gb ps3 with its BC, opened up a huge amount of games for me to play.

The ps3 has easily been my best console this generation, and Im happy with my decision, im just saddened that its the console to target with utter bull crap from fanboys.

@Twesterm

Maybe if you buy games for it, you would think differently.

I currently have:

Dead Space - good so far, still need to finish it (I'm only an hour or so into it >_<)
Uncharted - like it, love the 80's style adventure humor
Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm - blah
Little Big Planet - like it, don't love it
Resistance: Fall of Man - It's not bad but not really anything special either. I'll finish it in a few days and forget about it.
Resistance 2 - Haven't played it yet
Home - lolHome

I have also had

Burnout Paradise - It was fun until I crashed and had to watch the damn physics demo.
Metal Gear Solid 4 - wasn't a game for me
Ratchet and Clank - Not a fan
Motorstorm - didn't like it

Think that's all of the PS3 games I've had. So far only two exclusives I actually like (Uncharted and LBP) and one other game (Dead Space).

-edit-

And before people flip out more, I'm not saying it has no games, it just doesn't have games for me.
