Title: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: Asmodai on August 09, 2007, 04:01:09 PM: Mostly out of curiosity. I only have a Wii myself. I'm considering a 360 once the price goes down, but most of the games for it aren't in genres I like.

Oct-Dec is going to be a busy time for the Wii, so I won't be lacking for games to play anyway.

My PS2 is currently keeping me more than occupied with FFXII, Shin Megami Tensei : Digital Devil Saga, Tomb Raider: Anniversary, God Of War II, Okami and Pro Evolution Soccer 6. I intend to get one, which one remains to be seen, but only when certain games have been released or possible price drop.

Post by: SomethingWild on August 09, 2007, 09:02:12 PM: None :) My PS2 is all I need for at least the next year. Then when it gets cheaper --> PS3.

Post by: Mugen on August 09, 2007, 10:43:11 PM: well i have a ps3 but i heard 360 is having a price drop as well
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: pavel-kun on August 09, 2007, 11:30:50 PM: None. I will wait for more games and lover price of PS3.

Post by: RionZ on August 09, 2007, 11:35:43 PM: I have a Wii, but I don't consider it next-gen...

I'm getting a 360 sometime this year...they have a pricedrop and are putting out new consoles that address its current issues. There's so many games to look forward to this year on the 360.

Only game I'm looking forward to on the ps3 is Metal Gear Solid 4, and thats not out til next year. Heavenly Sword looks nice though.

Post by: JTRIX on August 10, 2007, 12:42:22 AM: I'm considering buying Xbox 360 because I can buy a HD/VGA cable and play it on my computer monitor. I'm wondering if PS3 can do the same thing?
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: BigDnm01 on August 10, 2007, 01:22:44 AM: i currently owned the Wii, just got it about a week, but haven't had time to play that much, but when i did, it was fun. i bought 3 games that came with it, but didn't get to play any of them, just the Wii sports. other than that, i'm also planning to buy the ps3 once the price drops just a little more. $499 is just still pricey for me rite now...
i have nothing against XBox, and they do have some awesome games, it just I'm not too crazy about X-BOX 360.

btw, i know both XBOX 360 and PS3 have those built-in hard drive, but i wonder if it's swappable, u know like if u bought a 20GB but want to update to a newer 60GB or 80GB, is that possible? or do u have to buy a new unit?

I'm not sure about the 360, but I know for a fact you can change the hard drive on the PS3 to any other laptop size hard drives you want since it uses the same 2.5" size. (I believe the manual shows you how to do it too) It looks really easy to do: http://youtube.com/watch?v=BkM9wiZePfs
Best of all it does not void the warranty.

Post by: kukine on August 10, 2007, 03:23:08 PM: None.. nds games are enough for though, unless someone dropped their thick wallet XD
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: mini*wheat on August 10, 2007, 03:33:06 PM: Definitely a Wii.
Nothing interests me on the 360... and the PS3 is too expensive and I'd probably only play Final Fantasy on it anyway. Plus, with talks of Guitar Hero and DDR for the Wii, I'm pretty sure I'm set for awhile. :D

Both of those are on my to-get list as well. I've finished Bioshock and Orange Box, so I'm in the mood for new games.
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: LaJon on October 19, 2007, 03:00:31 AM: None of the above. Newest console system I have is a N64 with 3 games. PC gaming has been all the gaming I could ever need for many years :love:
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: RatBastich on October 19, 2007, 03:07:01 AM: All I have is my playstation and xbox.
Really don't use them much, and I wish I could run pc games, but no chance, unless they're not heavy type graphics games with a whole of stuff going on at once.
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: winner on October 19, 2007, 06:17:27 PM: None yet. I'm already too busy with:
PS2 (Soul Nomad and The World Eaters, Spidey Friend or Foe, SMT Persona 3, DBZ Sparking Meteor)
PSP (FF1, FF2, FFT War of Lions)
NDS (FF3)

It shows that I'm already darn happy with what I've got in RPG goodness. :D

Problem is none of the games out right now on next-gen are that attractive.. (Resident Evil UC was just that close... :lol:).
So think I'll only switch if MGS4 or FF13 comes out.
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: redux on October 19, 2007, 06:19:39 PM: None, but if I do get any it will be the PS3. I don't really like the Wii and the XBox doesn't have enough games I'm interested in to justify buying it.
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: nop on October 19, 2007, 08:01:03 PM: My Wii gets me off my butt to move around. Much better than sitting all day, every day. I love it.
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: gscat on October 25, 2007, 12:32:50 PM: ps3

ps3

I fully agree with you there. Got my PS3 last weekend mainly because I got HP5 on Blu-ray and wanted to watch it already, but I knew I'd be getting it once FFXIII released.

Post by: aKaoNi on December 21, 2007, 06:56:27 PM: I own a wii although I rarely play it. My roomates have an xbox360 and ps3 and play my wii more than I do. I actually have a couple of brand new wii's right now, trying to sell em though. :D

Even though this was posted awhile back, the 360 does have a swappable drive. I don't understand the "buy a new unit" part though

Post by: wonkey_eye on December 22, 2007, 12:41:22 AM: I really just have a psp , xbox, and gamecube. My ps2 broke right when I just got a new game too. :(
The xbox is pretty boring; The gamecube only has like one game I play.
Title: Re: Which next-gen systems do you currently own?
Post by: Mugen on December 22, 2007, 02:23:01 AM: ps3 has a swappable hard drive, and its easy too. i swapped my 60gb with a 200gb one when i bought my ps3
