No, Guilty Gear XX is the best fighting game ever. Smash Bros. is awesome however.

I am still waiting patiently for the long promised Intellivision III by Mattel. I know they aren't going to let me down. *crosses fingers and holds breath*

I would have to say that nintendo is trying to apeal to a different audience than sony and microsoft mostly because their gamecube just couldn't compete with the ps2 and xbox.

even though i like Sony better, i think that the xbox 360 will be the ps2 of the next generation...i hope i am wrong.

i would get the PS3 for all the kick ass games coming out, sadly the prices suck...

Id get the 360 only for Halo 3 and nothing else

Wii needs to die, its a kiddy console with not a whole lot of M games...

Its just a lose lose thing for me...

Yeah, it caters for people like me, who are at best 'special' on most games on normal consoles. So for that I'd pick the Wii

I picked the Wii, for it's low price tag, awesome gameplay, and the big name games. PS3 is a waste of $500-$600, (US) because the Blu-ray is too easily damaged for 14-18 year old boys to take good care of. On the other hand, if you're a movie buff, a PS3 is the world's cheapest Blu-ray player :wink:

I'd go for the Xbox. I already have that though, so PS3. It's expensive, but once you get by the price its great. Tried t once. Pretty sweet.

Just because a game isn't rated M doesn't mean it's bad.

*cough* Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime, SSB *cough*..

I have a problem when it comes to getting a next gen console

1. Where i live, nintendo wii's are hard to find in stock
2. Xbox 360's have a lot of bugs, problems, and defective models
3. PS3's are too expensive

I was going to get a PS3 for my birthday this year. They will retail for around NZ$1,195 when sales launch next week.

I've decided against that. Instead, I'm going to buy a Killer Instinct 25" cabinet for $1,300. I'm paying it off on lay-away so I will be able to afford it. It might take me a couple of months to pay it off, but I haven't played this game in over 10 years... I can wait a couple months longer lol

I still have a working PSX, A working PS2. All my freinds have there working PSX'S And PS2's, And I still go over to my other friends to play Tony Hawk 1, Gran Turismo 1 and MGS. I think what you mean to say is you like buying for quality and then destroying said quality before you can even appreciate it. I bought my PS1 like 8 years ago and I'm still playing it and having fun. If you bought a computer for the price of a PS3 you'de get less than a year of top end performace.

My friend had several PS3s and broke all 3 of them. Anything will last 8 years if you take care of it. People don't want to have to worry about taking care of something though, they just want to slam the game in the drive and play.

The fact that a PS3 is the price of a computer is a huge turn off. I don't want a game system that can "do it all" because I already have a laptop. Just gimme the cheapest system with the best games. Graphics don't mean squat if the game is fun and the system is quality.

The Sega dreamcast had some good games, but i think the Sega genisis is better because it has all the cool "old school" games.

Sega was a huge money sink - My friend had to get new controllers very often because the screen broke.

I never owned one, I just played one at my friends house before.

I've got a Genesis and a Dreamcast, and both are pretty good. I've also got Moonwalker, which is probably the strangest game ever made.
