I'll end up buying all of them, but if I could only choose one it is definitely going to be Nintendo's next console.

Any money I would spend on a console - I would rather put into upgrading my PC..

Also if I had unlimited funds I would still not buy a console - they are outdated by the ever-evolving PC sometimes before the console is even available for purchase, sometimes shortly thereafter. ..but they are always outdated by the PC...

I'm a RPG (Final Fantasy 1-10/Final Fantasy Tactics style games) gamer so I need to follow the Playstation consoles to get the games I want. So I will likely get a PS3 unless Nintendo call pull all/most of that market away from Sony.

Don't we all love our PC?

i remember i saw KOTOR on the xbox and i didnt like it, but as soon as i tried it on the PC? wh, no doubt PC Lover forever, besides as stated before, consoles get old and nothing can be done about that, but if ur PC gets old, u just upgrade it a little

Once I'd moved to PC's, I could never go back.

Tried, but it's just not as intense as huddled in front of your monitor, in a darkened room, surrounded (literally) by your 5.1 speakers (feet resting on the bass driver box under the table), and playing on a system that you have researched, designed, purchased, built and tweaked and tuned etc, etc, yourself . . . . . . . . .

Plus the PC community seem a little more "thoughtful".

XBOX 2/ Xenon/ Next Box/ Xbox Next!!! If the modification scene comes close to that of the Xbox 1 (see Zardon's article on the 900GB 'Heavenly') then we'll be looking at photo quality graphics and 'the rest' we've always wanted. Why play on PC when the graphics card costs the same as a console and then the mobo, RAM, CPU etc doesn't match???

I voted for gaming on the good old PC. I have gotten spoiled by just how much better games look on a desktop. I will admit though the idea of picking up a used Xbox and having some modding fun. is tempting.

Diddo, but I would buy all the consoles that have optional keyboard attachments. I just prefer the keyboard to the game pad, now days.

I picked Xbox2 but I could also see myself getting a PS3 because of the CELL tech. The poll should have a few more entries like .. PS3 AND xbox2 or All of the above.

I hunt down GOOD games on ANY system.
