Ok, all you gamers.

What kind of system do you have and why? What makes it better than another? Xbox, play station.. whatever else there is... let me have it.. :cool:

What is that?

I guess I should add that I'm clueless concerning any and all gaming systems. The last system I had was a nintendo when I was a kid and I ended up donating it to my church. :D

So.. yeah....

The Wii is made by Nintendo, it's really fun to play! My sister has one and you put the little controller thingie around your wrist and hold it in your hand, and when you play the sports games, say for instance, tennis, you actually swing the controller like you are swinging a tennis racket. It's really physically active, and so much fun!

I have PS2, and at some point in time would like to get PS3. I just wish they made more girlie games for playstation.

I have a Wii, Gamecube, N64, SNES, and NES (actually two, planning on taking apart one of them and making it into an alarm clock) along with a myriad of hand helds.

The only other gaming system I have is my computer.

I have an Xbox, Gamecube, N64, and used to have a ton of Gameboys. The only reason I bought the Xbox was for Halo 2. PGR2 came with Xbox Live, so I play that sometimes, too. Gamecube and N64 are a lot of fun. I have no idea why, but Mario Party has always mananged to turn into a wrestling match. No one ever appreciates my button-hitting reflexes. NFSU2 is awesome. I enjoy ricing up my cars and then proceeding to crash them. :D

The Wii is a lot of fun. If I had the extra money, I'm sure I'd have one.

We have a Wii, and I also have a DS. We used to have a PS2, but never used it so we sold it on ebay.

The Wii is a lot of fun, and I love the Virtual Console games on it as well!

We have kids from 12 to 23, so we have and have had a variety of gaming systems. We have the PS2 and the Wii. I don't use them, but people of all ages love to play the Wii when they're here. The kids up to college age like to play the PS2 for certain games. Guitar-hero is on PS2 which has been popular in our household with some of the kids' friends. I can't remember what other games that they can only play on Play Station, but there are some others.

I have an Xbox, and that's it currently (unless you count a gameboy advance and DS). I really, really want a Wii but can't justify buying two consoles, and Halo 3 > everything else. So my next console will be a 360.

Atari was the first game system I ever played and my cousin had one. He had a chess game, a game called Utopia (which was a lot of fun at the time, there's also an SNES game called Utopia which is also really fun), and some game that was made by 7-Up. Cool Dots or something. Anyhow it was just Connect 4 with a little guy that would wriggle around and make noises when you won.

I have an x-box with a xenium chip in it, an x-box 360, ps2, psp, game boy, nes, super nes, atari, intellivision, game cube. I used to have the sega genesis and dreamcast. I prefer the 360 right now, but what system I play one day to the next, depends on what kind of games I feel like playing. The xboxes and the ps2 have more adult oriented games, where the nintendos have more kid driven games. THe first 3 game systems get used all the time the others are more collectors type things.

I am a vidiot . Blue I got a real laugh out of that one I had the old 2600 and loved playing Yars revenge on it. I have 2 original nintendos and I think every game they put out lol. I have 3 play station 1's and 2 ps2"'s I am a big fan of role playing games. Can really get lost in the. I am also a big Spyro Junkie lol. I did not care for the last two though they are going down hill. I want to get the PS3 and Wii as well.
