WHAT IS THE BEST GAMES CONSOLE?

556325_6.jpg
 
now if i needed a box to sit under my TV to allow me to play games with, i'm sure one of these fangled console things would be good.


personally i like playing my games @ 1600x1200 resoloution, with full anti aliasing and antisrophic filtering....

I like my PC best and don't have a games console (although the ex had three if I remember correctly - he got them in the divorce). But then again being female I prefer strategy type games that go better on a PC what with menus and the like. I suppose if I were into fast reaction games such as fighting style ones I would prefer the benefits of a console and fancy joypad.

I don't see the PC as a games console. I voted PS2. I love mine. Not only are most(if not all) games available for it, but you can also play PS1 games on it! Like ol' trusty GT2! Champion:D

Voted PC, but xbox prob best of the rest.

I prefer online RPG's to action games and also like strategy/adventure genre games. Currently playing Conquer beta ( www.conqueronline.com ), but have high lvl chars on Helbreath and Runescape.

Why the "being female" bit Helz?

PS2 for me for the same reasons as surfin fella, but the xbox is not bad. don't like using the pc for games as you will be forever updating your pc to play the latest game, and in past experience you get to the last level, as your about to save your hours of playing the pc will crash! [:(!]
the reason i bout a PS then a PS2 :D

Female? Menus? does your entire gaming experience consist of sitting in front of the PC saying 'No, but what are you having?...oh you just CAN'T make decisions can you!!!' ;):D:p[:0]B)

PC wins by a long way - mouse and keyboard is the best control system ever for most games, and the graphics on even a fairly cheap PC are far better than any console :p
If only they'd convert the Gran Turismo series to PC...

I know, but I wouldn't sell it. My wee boy still plays it from time to time.

Polecat, no offence to girls who do like fighting/ fast action games but most other girls I know either don't play games at all (and as mentioned above complain the whole time their partner is on the console when they want to watch telly!) or if they do prefer strategy or 'slower' adventure games. Unlike the blokes who like the faster/ bloodier action games. Obviously this isn't true for the entire female population, it just seems that I fit into the norm.

And to Richie, I meant computer menus as you well know and I can't compete with your string of smilies so you will just have to do with :p.

Anyone ever tried explaining to a console fan why a PC is so much better than one of their toys....it's very, very difficult!

being an avid gamer, i'd partly agree with helz, online the i'd say the male to female ratio in 1st person shooters is about 9:1, and to just exlude myself from 'blokes' catagory, i prefer a good game of botf, age of empires, rise of nations, need i continue?
