View Full Version : All three next gen consoles


A Dark Knight 2

Just wondering what the population was of folks who own all three next gen consoles...?
I've had a 360 for about 7 months and just recently sent it in for repairs (red rings of death for the 1st time). I bought a Wii last week and plan on picking up a PS3 in the next few weeks.
If you plan on getting one of the other consoles in the next 30 days, please answer the poll as if you currently have it.
Thanks!

I have all three.

The Wii is only used by my kids and until the Heavenly Sword demo the PS3 was collecting dust. The 360 on the other hand is running on a daily basis for gaming and as a media center extender.

I'm an Other (que Lost theme "noise"). Just a Wii for Mii. I have thought about getting a 360, but can't find the spare cash just yet, weddings and all.

PS2, Computer (Oh NOes!), 360 and PSP.

My faves from each system:

PS2: Guitar Hero, Resident Evil 4

Computer: Total War series, Company of Heroes

360: Rainbow Six Vegas

PSP: Ratchet and Clank and Killzone: Liberation

I'd forgotten my other platforms! I also have a DS (phat) and a PC, but I'm guessing that's a given.

This poll should've included:

Wii only
PS3 only
360 only
Wii and PS3 only
Wii and 360 only
PS3 and 360 only
Wii, PS3 and 360

You've got three possible consoles. So three choices for people with one console.

3!/2 choices for people with two consoles (3! possible combinations then removing half because they're the same... as in "Wii and 360" is the same as "360 and Wii", which works out to "3" when simplified)

And only one choice for people that have all three.

3 + 3 + 1 = 7 possible choices... and if you wanted, you could add "None" for a 8th.

Math. It's useful.

Great point, what genius (that's sarcasm -- we like it here) started this thread in the 360 section? :rolleyes:

Maybe I should start a Killzone 2 discussion in the Wii forum.

Only buy one if it has HDMI on it... seriously. And I'm not talking the Elite...

I'm at work now - tested it with crap 17' LCD monitor - pretty awesome (but no shooters for me for sevral months... I cant cope with such controls in shooters). About HDMI - I've bought VGA cable cause I have no HDTV TV for now.. may be later I'll buy it.. on cristmas may be.. For now I'll play on 19' wide LCD.. But why is there 1280x1024 and no 1440x900... Seems I will need black borders using 1360x768...

But this thing is much more fun than PSP =)

P.S. Waiting for Bioshock on PC. =)

I was simply using the HDMI port as a timeline to better ensure you got one less likely to crap out on you than the "regular" crap-out-prone models that've been put out for the last 18 months. Good luck.

Congrats. Make sure to grab reservations of Bioshock and Halo 3 while you're out.


More on-topic: Only an Xbox 360 for me. Between my 360 and my PC I can keep myself more than satisfied with video games.

Guys guess what? My 360 died last night!

I guess my Doc's logic, I can blame Peter Moore for allowing this to happen. :D

I don't actually own a wii or 360... anymore... stay with me here. I owned a wii, got it on launch day, then my roommate left the front door unlocked over winter break and our house got robbed :(

No more wii. But I would own one if not for my roommates abscentmindedness.

Only reason I don't own a 360 is because my roommate owns one and I use his. I'll get one of my own when I move out.

So I voted Xbox 360 and Wii

I did buy okami and god of war 2 for it though, along with the only 2 good ps3 exclusives, you know what they are.

Shane86, I fear you're going to get an unwarranted bad reputation solely based on the fact that your handle is so close to that idiot/attention whore Sniper68... at first I thought your post was his... but when I could read it easily, I knew it wasn't him. :D

I've got a 360 and a Wii, but to be honest I bought into the Wii hype and barely play the thing at all. I've been a lifelong Nintendo fan but I'm starting to get sick of their bullshit. They talk innovation but every big game is pretty much *insert gc game* 1.5. Plus, heading into University I'm not going to be able to afford to get games for both systems, and the 360 has more games, and games that tend to last me longer because they're longer, better, and have online multiplayer that doesn't suck. I'm thinking of selling the thing off soon while I can still get out close to even. Not to say it's a bad system, it just seems sort of weak next to the 360.

Just a Wii and a DS.

This gen really sucks so far. The only consoles with abundant good games are the DS and 360.

Tho I'm getting Metroid 3 soon... so awrighty.

I have a wii, 360, and computer (does it count as next-gen?). I leave the wii on the top shelf of my cabinet. Hasn't been touched for a month.

Lupercalia, not only mods. Notice that the vote numbers in the poll are actually links - when you click any of them, you will see who voted on what.

For the record, this poll was "public" meaning anyone can see who voted for each item. On "private" polls, even admins/mods cannot see who voted for each item.

Just a 360 and I may only ever own a 360.

I'd like to get a PS3 for those games I can't play on my 360 and maybe a Wii for Virtual Console but for this gen, 360 will be my primary console.

I'm not some MS fan or anything, but the 360 appealed to me most out of the current-gen consoles, and I honestly do not see the value in owning more then one current-gen console at once. My 360's served me well and I don't intend to swap it for a Wii or PS3 or purchase either one of those in addition to my 360, either.

Next-gen? Could go any way.

i own a 360. no plans on getting either a Wii or a PS3. no games i would want [other than killzone 2]. i do plan on gfetting my own personal 360 in the next few months instead of sharing with my 13 year old brother who does get off the damn thing because he is always on Fifa 08 and Halo online.

Ok I own a 360, I plan on getting a PS3 hopefully by next year, and I HAD :eek: a Wii and played for it for a month. Then I traded it in for a DS.

360 and Wii. Got the Wii first, loved it, and it's still good for family gatherings and my boy, but there's not a lot of games for "mature" (adult) gamers (I've played and beaten RE4 on it, which was awesome).
I am slightly tempted by a PS3, but there are no exclusive system-sellers for me, and while I would like the option of BD, I haven't watched half of the SD or HD DVDs I have, so that's not a huge deal.
