POLL: Are you getting a next-gen console this Holiday Season?

[JackBurton]

Yep, a 360. I might not be able to resist GoW.

 

[secretanchitman]

have a wii preordered from ebgames along with zelda...

next sunday im getting it! yay!!!

probably will get ps3 when the good games come out (mgs4, etc) and all the kinks are worked out.

 

[mugs]

Wii

Edit: Will get a 360 next year when they have all the issues worked out and hopefully it's cheaper.

Will get a PS3... eventually.

 

[MercenaryForHire]

Have a 360, getting a Wii.

- M4H

 

[Dumac]

I am getting a Wii, and may be getting a PS3

 

[doze]

Not currently planning to buy, but if a nice bonus comes my way around xmas then it will be a 360

 

[Kaervak]

If I could afford it, I'd be getting a Wii. Oh well, it's only video games I can wait.

 

[Corporate Thug]

wii for me

 

[BRObedoza]

wii after christmas, ps3 whenever final fantasy xiii comes out

 

[archcommus]

Results are really surprising, hope this poll gets huge for some better data.

 

[JBT]

If I get one it will more than likely be a Wii. I would like to get a PS3 but right now they just cost to much. Also I have pretty much only played games on my PC the last 6 or so years and don't play games as much as I should on what I spend, so shelling out another 599 for the PS3 is a little over board for me.

 

[Kadarin]

Negatory. I am not, never have been, and never will be a console gamer.

 

[Cabages]

Getting a Wii, already have a 360. If I had the money, I would wait out in line for a PS3 and sell it on ebay, but the funds arent there.

Getting GoW tommorow, BTW.

Ditto, have never owned one.

 

[Azndude2190]

It would be selfish of me to ask this

...but I'm hoping to get all 3...somehow

 

[Beev]

Already have a 360, haven't played it since last December and I finally get to bust it out for Gears of War. Finally a use after 10 months of nothing but sh!t titles. I have both a Wii and PS3 preordered at my local EB, but I won't pick up the PS3. I don't want any of the launch games, or anything at all this year for it, actually. My Wii, on the other hand, I will have on launch day with Zelda. Glorious Zelda.

 

[Mo0o]

probably getting a 360

I already have a gaming system for grown-ups called a PC.

Although I agree and am in the same boat, isn't that statement a bit contradictory?

Actually the older I've gotten (31 next month ) the more I've gravitated towards consoles, because I've lost my desire to tinker with PC's just for games. Unlike when I was younger and had time to mess with computers, now I just want something I can flip on and play a game when I get some free time.

I don't understand this mentality, as once you have a computer up and running good, you can do exactly that with it - flip it on, launch a game, and go. The only times it requires "tinkering" and messing with it is when you're upgrading, which should be a pretty isolated event, and when problems occur, which also hopefully is pretty rare. Not like problems DON'T happen with consoles, especially the more modern ones.

Sports games suck on PC. I guess if you don't like sports games the PC will do the trick though.

Oh, and I'll probably buy a Wii but already have a 360. Might want to add that to your poll for more accurate results by the way (since some people may be viewing this as a popularity contest ). Buying Wii/PS3 already have 360 or something like that.

Nope, I've got my PC and my GP2X. Other than that, I'm satisfied.
