Topic: Who is your favorite of the big three?

Love Nintendo because I was raised on them and I love Zelda
Hate Sony because all their products glitched, died, and stopped working for me
Neutral to Microsoft because I don't care about them

Nintendo big babyyyy i grow up on it with old school game boy...

I'm gonna go cry in the corner now...
^{The Pokemorphs...the needlessly sexualized Pokemorphs...}

I will say Nintendo, as I knew them well growing up and am still pretty loyal to them. It can be hard to be loyal with them sometimes, though.

Then there's Sony, who I do like almost as much as Ninty, but sometimes I really do want to strangle them all. Seriously, I hate Sony of America, or whoever it is that does dumb stuff. Sometimes their marketing strategies can just go too far off the edge, because you know that you are doing well when you have to degrade other companies' image to look better. And what was that idiotic show, The Tester? Really? I mean come on. I like Sony, but sometimes, ugh. PS2 forever, tho.

Sega, and even though I didn't grow up on their consoles I still really like them. I used to eat breathe and bathe in Sonic.

Microsoft, well they're okay. They are really cheap, as their consoles break and accessories are way to expensive. But they're not bad, just not appealing. Though I have to say I'm ashamed to have an Xbox 360 but not a PS3 right now.

I'll tell you my least favorite. Their name is Microsoft.

Same here

Nintendo, although that's more because they're my favorite developer more than anything. Sony systems tend to have just as many, if not more, total games that I either like or am greatly interested in (and, heck, the PlayStation 2 is my favorite console ever).

I'm not really invested to the point where I actively root for against any of the Big Three, though. The only time I was ever against a console maker was Sony for a brief period in the PS1/N64 generation, when I was a major Nintendo fanboy; then I actually played some PlayStation games one day and realized that all I had done was place a completely unnecessary limit on how many great games I could play.

May I ask why?

Anyhow probably Microsoft.

I'll always have a soft spot for Nintendo due to Nostalgia, but I enjoy all 3.

I like Nintendo best. The only time I felt 'defective' was when Xbox 360 hit the scene with Gears of War and Dead Rising, but I've played all and enjoyed all to an extent. The only reason why I have a PS3 is for bluray, because they costed about the same around the when the 1st slim came out.
I really wish I would have supported Xbox 360 more than I did, but I fought them on based on instinct when the RROD was rampant. I was younger and my initial reaction was just wrong I suppose...
PS3 never once impressed me, except for bluray and internet browser. I only use my PS3 for media and services now, but not games.

Yeah thats my position too but I also dont mind MS.

You know what? I've had it. I'm calling this out.

Are you telling me that out of ALL these games: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:PlayStation_3-only_games NONE of them appeal to you?

I know I have a reputation on these forums for being critical of Nintendo; undeserved, but whatever. But even it if was true, it would be incredibly immature of me to pretend that there aren't games on Nintendo's consoles that I enjoy playing.

It boggles my mind that anyone who considers themself a "true gamer" is unable to find a reason to appreciate any of the mainstream consoles.

You really gonna ask this on a Nintendo forum?

@Bankai
Xbox 360 beat PS3 to the punch at everything, that's mainly why I wasn't impressed. Killzone 2 came out 3 years too late for me, and Uncharted was a year late, too, FOR ME. When Xbox 360 came out, I was very skeptic, but they proved me wrong pretty fast. By the time Sony proved they could do anything with the PS3, it was already treaded ground by Microsoft getting some form of HD home console gaming going.
Even Nintendo has an HD console, and they are 'behind the times' to the core.

EDIT: If we were to look at TRUE progression in the gaming industry, PS3 would fall behind on ALL acounts. Nintendo had motion control right out of the box, and Microsoft had social features and HD right out of the box.

Whether you think ot or not, motion controls are a big part of gaming now, and so is HD along online connectivity.

... Is this a trick question?
'Cause it sounds like a trick question.

You are missing the point entirely. The link I posted there is for PlayStation 3-exclusive games.

As in, games you can't play on any other console.

You are flat-out lying if there is not a single game in that list that interests you. Because no one could possibly have gaming as a hobby and be that picky about the games they play.

@Bankai
Why would I lie? There would be no gain in that. Xbox 360 won me over like 6 months before PS3 even came out. It costed less, too, and did everything just as much except bluray.
Actually, I can confirm DNLA works better on Xbox 360. I haven't tried it with my Wii U yet, though...
I'm not saying PS3 is completely useless, they just fall short on all fronts compared to either Xbox 360 or Wii U IMO. I'd rather play Halo, Gears, or Smash Bros. anyday.
Uncharted = Gears of War
Killzone = Halo
PS AllStars = Smash Bros.
All those PS3 games came out later than their comparable counterparts.

I feel somewhat obligated to say Nintendo since I've only ever owned their systems. But sometimes I just can't get my head around many of the incredibly dumb decisions they make. My loyalty lies with them for now though.
I have had and continue to have plenty of great experiences with Sony and Microsoft hardware and software, both related and unrelated to video games. All 3 companies are fine with me. I can find things to praise and poke fun at with each of them.

I'm not sure why you keep rolling out two of three games as some kind of proof that the Playstation 3 lacks for compelling games.

Two can play at that

God of War = better than all the GoW clones on Xbox/ Wii
Atelier franchise = completely unique.
LittleBigPlanet = better than any user content creation games on Xbox/ Wii
Demon's Souls = better by an order of magnitude than Dark Souls, and there is no Wii equivilant
Journey/ The Unfinished Swan = better than any arthouse games on Wii/ Xbox

Have you actually played more than the two or three games you keep mentioning (if you've even played those) on the PS3?
