What will you be buying?

With E3 over and alot more infomation on the consoles now avalible I was wondering what, if any, of the game consoles do people intend to buy?

For me the Wii is a must because of the great controller and amazing possiblities. I also have a very limited income so the price also appeals to me.

When Halo 3 is released I may consider a 360, if all the bugs have been worked out.

As the the PS3, the price is simply too much and I have never enjoyed Playstation as much as the other systems.

A Wii *groan*, and a PS3 when reduced in price. The RRP at launch is simply too much, but I do want the system for the likes of MGS4.

Mostly the same boat. I'll get a Revolution if the control is as good as people are claiming and maybe a 360 if more games that appeal to me come out and the price drops a bit.

The only console I shall ever consider buying is a Playstation Two, for the express purpose of playing Guitar Hero.

Annoyingly, there are games on all three systems I want, though I will certainly be waiting quite some time for the PS3. However, with the Wii being so affordable, it would be a crime not to get it.

I think once the price drops a little, I'll be crying Wii Wii Wii Wii Wii all the way home. That's if I get anything at all.

Im getting the PS3 because im mostly a Sony gamer. I dont have much intrest in the Wii even if it has nifty controller because none of its games appeal to me. 360 doesent have enough games that appeal to me and so I wont be getting it. If in a couple of years the 360 price drops I'll buy it for Halo 3 and Dead Or Alive 4.

A Wii, due to price.

I'll probably get a Wii when it comes out- the nintendo name brands that I grew up with look amazing on it. I'll also probably get a 360 when Halo 3 comes out. PS3- after the price drops (so 2-3 years from now).

A Wii. I'll probably end up picking up a PS2 for the back catalogue sometime in the next year or so, and by the time I've finished playing all the games I wanted to on that, at cheap secondhand prices, either the PS4 will be out, or Sony will have dropped out of the console wars.

The Nintendo (I'm just going to call it a "Nintendo") is the only one I'm going to buy when it first comes out. I'll get a PS3 eventually, but not until the price inevitably drops. I wouldn't even consider it if it weren't for FFXIII and MGS4...

Admiral Valdemar · Post by **Admiral Valdemar** » 2006-05-13 10:31am

There's a FFXIII now?

Yes, and the real time graphics finally match movie CGI.

A Wiiiiiiiiii and probably a 360 when Halo 3 comes out, if I can afford it.

Instant Sunrise · Post by **Instant Sunrise** » 2006-05-13 10:43am

I've already got a 360, so I will be picking up a Nintedo Wii.

Super Smash Bros Brawl has my goddess in her skin-tight jumpsuit glory. Wii.

Nintendo had me sold on the Wii when they were still developing the "Dolphin", just as I know I will be purchasing their next console.

Noble Ire · Post by **Noble Ire** » 2006-05-13 11:33am

I'm not the biggest console gamer all around, but 360, of the three, does seem like it has or will have the most games that interest me. I'll likely get buy it around Halo 3 time. After that, I might buy a Wii at some point, depending on my financial situation. I don't intend on ever purchasing a PS3.

I'll be getting a 360 and a Wii. I'm a Halo fanboy and I'm a sucker for Zelda.

It's looking more and more like I'll lose my sophomore year at uni to the Wii.

Karza · Post by **Karza** » 2006-05-13 12:01pm

360, once it's a bit cheaper. Or maybe nothing.

Mad · Post by **Mad** » 2006-05-13 12:02pm

Where's the "All 3... eventually..." option? The Wii is first on my hitlist, then the 360, and there's a possibility that I'll get the PS3 after the price comes down significantly... assuming it can keep third-party support (though Microsoft will try their best to make this difficult).

Manus Celer Dei · Post by **Manus Celer Dei** » 2006-05-13 01:05pm

Probably get a 360 near when Hal 3 comes out. There's not enough games I'm intrested in right now to warrant getting one yet, and the Wii and PS3 don't really intrest me.

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2006-05-13 01:11pm

I might get a 360 sometime next year, or I might just sit out this round.
