(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Thought I'd post this as it's actually some general discussion, not like 80% of the threads in this section these days.

So provided you do use gaming consoles, why do you use the particular ones you do? Why did you buy a PS3 over an xbox for example. Why do you have both? Why an xbox over a PS3? If you play on PC, why do you not play console? etc etc.

Also if you have both/all, what one do you use more and why?

Maybe you don't even have a next generation console and use something like a DS.

Just post about it below, you could mention stuff like games, you don't like how the online works, you do like how the online works, you don't want to pay for online, your friend had one and he liked it, etc.

Personally I own a PS3 and an xbox 360, I got the PS3 back in 2007 due to having the PS2 for a long time no troubles and I loved the games on there, in particular the MGS and Gran Turismo series. In late 2010 I decided to buy an xbox and black ops instead of BO for PS3 just for a difference and quite a few of my mates already have xbox 360. I use them both but the xbox more than the PS3 these days.

You make it sound like blu-ray is god's gift to gaming and anything that doesn't use it will fail and sucks.. it hardly matters that much, you can get the same graphics by game develepors just using 2 discs instead of 1 blu-ray.

I have both the Xbox and PS3, but I play PS3 more because most of my close friends are al on it and because I love the exclusives. If I had a choice though, I would probably play Xbox more (for multi-plat) if more of my friends were on it because I like some of the features a little better :p

I would have to say Im a PS3 person, this is mainly because I already owned a load of PS2 games, and my PS2 has just broken, So buying an X360 would have meant throwing them all away.
Most of my friends IRL have a PS3 anyway,although if I had the money I would get an X360.
I also use my PS3 for steaming films via the media server, meaning I don't have to transfer all my films.

PS3 to trophy hunt and PC to play games on max grapic and ofcourse the exclusives to both.
