the reason i got a 360 is because i love jrpg's, really like xbl,the controller for me is the best , really like ff11:online,plays all the original xbox games i like and alot of my friends have the system as well, also really like the halo and fable series, gears series is proven to me to be another must have series for the xbox brand.

the reason i got a ps3 is because the system just looks sleek and powerfull,has a disk slot ,plays all ps1 games, i like hd-def movies,can upgrade your hdd to 500 gig,and proven to me that games like uncharted:drakes fortune and mgs 4 can show u what the ps3 is capable of and make u buy the system to play these exclusives.

the reason i will get a wii again soon is because i love the zelda series,mario series,and i want too play monster hunter tri,vahalla knights:elder saga,rune series,metriod series is awesome,vc games ,and getting my family to play games and wana play more is something that the other systems cant do at all.

what about u guys ?

Because, I want my first party Nintendo games.

No, I need them. :P

Bought a 360 almost at launch because for once, I wanted to be an early adopter of a next-gen system.

i bought a wii because nintendo games are AAA

Nintendo because the hype and attention claimed me.
360 because of the diverse library
ps3 just for ffxiii. however i've sinceforth sold the ps3 because i wanted a slim :p

Games

because of games.

Wii: for Nintendo games and unique games
360: For HD games...

Because of the games.

This. Or I mean, I would have wished I had been an early adopter - for once! But in reality I bought my X360 in mid '07, almost two years after launch...

But in next gen I'll make sure to be an early adopter!

OT: because I'm an Xbox fan. But I will buy the PS3 too probably cause of The Last Guardian. And a Wii for Zelda of course.
