    Yeah, Xbox Games Are More For Adults. But I Still Love It, Mainly For HALO. Just Got one, and lovin it!

  6. Xbox is number 1 on gamescale of one to ten

  7. I myself perfer the PS3 over Xbox, however, they are all great consoles. Also, I like the free Playstation Network of PS3 over the payed online gaming for the 360.

  11. Gaming PC pwns all others. No question about it.

  12. GAMING PC >:)

  13. I’d like to point out the Wii u will have twice the power as the Wii, the other systems New ones will have 6 times the power I beleive. And about Xbox online stuff, ps3 can do all the same, and can read blue ray wich 360 can’t, altho there both good systems I’d say ps3 is much better quality, plus you don’t have to pay to use the online such should always be free

  14. I think the xboxs 720 is going to be cooool

  15. i think the xbox 360 is the best and always be better than ps3, but there both better than wii

    XBOX360 is the absolute BEST! I think it is the best because you can download game demos and full games without having to have another case and disk clutter up your cabinet. You can also connect to your PC and watch youtube, netflix, and hulu. It can even play the older XBOX games and let you watch DVD movies! 🙂

  25. xbox 360 kinect

    xbox 360

  28. This stuff is WAY outdated. The PSP 3000 is 130 now. The PS3 160 GB is 300. The wii is 200. The Xbox 160 GB is 300.

  29. 3ds is amazing the screen literally pops out in 3d whit out using special 3d glases. And it has so many fetures that are hard to discribe! AND it has stuff that no other game system has!

  30. all this advice aint working ps3 xbox 360 3ds seriesly guys there making a new psp which one is the best?

  31. Playstation 3 is the best I have one and it has the best graphics, you can download music, there’s netflix, you can put photos, and you can play movies and cds. You can also use your PSP as a remote for the ps3.

    My point, PS3 is the BEST

  32. the xbox 360 has a over problem
    the ps3 has a over heating problem
    the is for old and fat people
    so really there all the same
    but the ps3 it better quitey
    the 30 has good graphies
    i like all the systems besides the wii.

  33. xbox360 is the best ^^/ :]

  34. the xbox360 slim is the best. Kinect is much better than the move

  35. I think the PS3 is the best I have one and it is AWESOME
    it plays dvds blu-ray and the graphics are the best

  36. i think play station 3 slim is the best game system im not lying so go out there and by a play station 3

  37. the best game systems were the playstation 3 and 360 and the wii.

  38. the 360 has better games than ps3 and wii combined

    wii is the best

  40. ps3 🙂

  41. the best i think would probably be XBOX 360, and to the earlier conversation, i thought they would make them……. i just wasn’t sure….

  42. Would everyone be quiet about what the best system. Just buy a system for the games. Be happy with what you have and stop trying to say which is the best cause in 3 years everyone will play ps4 xbox 720 and wii 2.

  43. go research NINTENDO 3DS! a DS in well, 3D
