Simple: talk about the current generation of consoles; likes, dislikes, problems etc.

360 FTW.. Only problem is RRoD. I like the variety of games they have. Ninja Gaiden II, Fable 2, Gears of War 2... What's with all the 2's? Whatever lawl.

Wii.. I don't really like their graphics. They're too cartoony, excluding TLoZ.

PS3. The graphics are great, but I don't like a lot of the games.. There isn't very many of em..

PS3 also costs a lot of money. While the Xbox and Wii are both around the same price. It has also lost one of it's potential bestsellers (FF13), which is also for the 360 now.

OMG SRSLY?! YAY!! I always wanted a PS3, just for FF13. But now.. XDDD

^This states it, and it's on the xbox.com forums as a game.

They all specialize in their own thing.

Nintendo: Multiplayer Fun
Sony: Single-Player experiences
Microsoft: Online

They've all got their weaknesses too

Nintendo: Graphics (Not much better than Gamecube, but still worthy of this gen)
Sony: Expensive, Online sucks (but free!) lack of exclusives
Microsoft: RROD, Mostly Shooters

I've used my Wii the most, so many hours of Brawl..Tales of Symphonia 2, Mario Kart Wii, Zelda, Metroid, Super Mario Galaxy, and the upcoming The Conduit are all very promising.

As for PS3, I've only really played a few games for it. Metal Gear Solid 4, mostly online, is what I've done with it. Eternal Sonata, Gundam Musou (Dynasty Warrior Gundam) and Gundam Crossfire were all very good. As for Dynasty Warriors 6, it was alright.

I don't own, or want, an Xbox360. All the games are too similar (either fighting aliens, zombies, or CoD** Instert number there.

Online is multiplayer fun, no? So the Wii and 360 share their strengths there.

And all the online 360 games are shooters, but there are other games, such as Fable 2, Ninja Gaiden 2, Devil May Cry 4, Banjo-Kazooie, Oblivion, GTA IV.

As I posted in the shoutbox, I fixed my RROD quickly.

When the PS3 gets more (good) exclusives, it may be worth it.

And a 360 weakness: It sounds like it's going to explode after 10 mins, and I could use it as a radiator.

I know what you mean. I like all the systems, but Im most partial to Wii (Mostly for the classics) But the 360 is not too far behind.

But of course, the Famicon/Nes and Super Famicon/Snes are epic as well.
