Default Which Next Gen System Are You Buying?

All these next gen game systems seem to be good. I was wondering what system everyone is getting.

I voted "wii" but I'm going to buy that AND the PS3. In fact, the name "wii" has pretty much made me not want one. How dumb is that? I want my Revolution!!

But names aside, it should be good. And you can't go wrong with a Playstation.

Xbox can burn in hell. Most. Stupid. System. Ever.

I'm going to eventually get all of them but I'm definately going to wait until the ps3 is a lot cheaper then their proposed price. The Wii is going to be another I get but I'll wait until they have games that I really want to play.

Wii60! Wii60!

The Wii for Nintendo games and quirky Japanese titles, and the Xbox for the western games.

Definitiley the Wii --- it's so great and although I was very iffy about Nintendo's Gamecube, I have learned to trust them, and think that the Wii holds the future of all major gaming

Definetly the ps3. YEA!! I'll get the Wii too though. The fact that it will play old nintendo games is really cool and interesting. Can't go wrong with Zelda either.

I agree. Support those who attempt to bounce gaming out of it's rut.

I really dig the Xbox 360. Over the summer I will be saving for one of the Elite's.

EDIT: Not that I don't like the Wii but, at the moment, I think I will just stick to mooching off friends for that.

And I hate the PS3. If I got one, I would probably burn it, and piss on the ashes.

I'm knee-deep in WoW right now. But I have people bugging me to get a Wii, and I really want to, but I'm on the edge of selling my tv since I never use it. Hence why I wouldn't get a wii! LOL. I have played it, and it's fun and reminds me of when games were all about having fun and not so much spending hours so you can master it. I learned bowling and all kinds of Wii sports in no time at all, but it was FUN and simple. I can seriously see myself getting a Wii for exercise value LOL.

Honestly, I don't know if you'll see the Wii-mote replicated on a PC. You might. But you'll see solid-state (flsh) hard drives in a new computer before you see that. My problem with the wii-mote, is it's good for games, but for navigating around the screen it's horrendous and horrible on the wrist.

I'm not a gamer, and I'm happy with what I got.

Because every game on console will come out for PC.

Definitely want to get the Wii when I've got some spare cash. Looking forward to playing the sports games which I'm not normally a great fan of, but look so much more fun with the wiimote.

I might get an Xbox360 at some point as well, but probably not for a while.

It's not about the power. Nintendo has never released games for PC, and I doubt they ever will. And you can't miss their games really
