Poll: What do you use: Console or PC?

[JackyG]

I had to sell practically everything I owned last year to pay rent (consoles, big tv, any game/dvd without a steamworks code) so now I game on my phone and my PC. it's an M11X gaming laptop that I bought a few years ago on the cheap. best 800 I ever spent. it's been a godsend as i've been moving around all this time.

I'm new to the PC and so far I'm glad I switched. Each system has it's pro's and con's the PC appears to have the best ratio though.

I'm playing through The Witcher 2, BioShock and Borderlands on my PC now but I'm still playing on my Xbox because Halo 4 just came out. Should jump right back into the PC when Crysis 3 comes out provided EA doesn't spunk Origin all over the PC version.

Well, up until later on this week, I will have been primarily a 360 gamer, but I have just invested a rather large amount in a brand new PC, so I should imagine that I will be using that more often. I refuse to "take sides" in the consoles vs PC argument as I enjoy gaming on nearly all platforms, it has been more a case of being able to spend a good chunk of money on a new PC which has held me back so far. I will be looking forward to catching up with seven years of missed PC exclusives, however

PS3, but it used to be PC. Don't have the budget for a good pc, just a laptop for school, though it's ok for a lot of games.

I was mainly a console gamer until early this generation. I play mainly on PC now because I like the customization options. I find it very satisfying to play games on a machine with hand picked parts and have it run at 60fps at 1920x1080.

If I play on consoles it's mainly for the exclusives. I have a Wii for the Mario games, which I played quite a bit.

 

[DayDark]

I own the two big consoles and just a standard labtop, most gaming occurs on my xbox though, with some gaming on my PC coming in second.

I'm pretty surprised by the poll results actually. I have long figured this site to be heavily console users. Maybe the demographic is changing on this site.

Anyway, I'm mainly a PC user. I also have a Wii. And my brother has an Xbox.

I still haven't decided which I prefer more, Skyrim on the PC or Xbox. (Yes, I only play vanilla, shush)

After sitting all day in front of a PC with no graphics card and 500MB of Ram, i can't stand to sit in front of a home PC for even 30 min. Now laying on the comfy sofa with only 13 buttons and two analog sticks wirelessly is the way to go.

PC games are gearing toward the wireless controllers too for this reason.

Well I play on most of them but in order of recent usage it would be

PS3
360
PS2
PC
Wii
PSP
DS
SNES

I dont have a 3DS or Vita (although may get a vita someday) as handheld gaming has never really suited me so unless I am going to be away from home for long periods I never bother I usually just take a book. Oh and havent played games on my phone since my Nokia 3330 really dislike phone gaming for some reason.

Traditionally I am more of a console gamer and while I wont ignore good games that I want to play if they are PC exclusive (or imo better suited to pc) I prefer to play on consoles its just much more relaxing for me as I use PCs for work and I can never quite shake that work mode feeling when sitting in front of one.

 

[Denamic]

PC.
I have a PS3 I use a lot, but I get more use out of my PC by a vast margin. I also use an emulator on my PC to play PS2 games, ever since my PS2 started being retarded.

 

[Catrixa]

I play my big, shiny, PC, my lesser-but-still-pretty-shiny gaming lappy, and my not-very-shiny 3DS (shininess measured by equation using the number of attached LED's and horsepower of system). I have a Wii, 360, and PS3, but none of those get as much love and attention as my PCs and handheld (and I've been playing Pokemon like it's going out of style... still not sure why I even HAVE a 3DS... future Pokemon, maybe...).

But I chose potato, because it was an available answer on this poll.

 

[AngryMongoose]

PC. Bought myself one of them ShiMian 27" 2560x1440 screens so it's all shiny and nice right now.
I own an Xbox, but the games are more expensive (My main reason for never using it), the online costs money, I can run higher res on my PC, I prefer mouse keyboard, I'm usually on my PC anyway... so I'm not really sure why'd I'd buy games for it. I do tend to forget it exists...

 

[votemarvel]

I tend to play the most on my Xbox 360. This is because I rent a lot of games and that really isn't an option for the PC.

However I confess that most of my purchases tend to be on the PC.

 

[cocoadog]

360 for friends PC for the shiny graphics.

 

[crimson sickle2]

I'm playing mostly PC now, since I am away from my consoles. However when I go back to my home, I usually only play console games except for an occasional game on PC.

 

[Baron_Rouge]

PS3 for me I also have a 3DS, a Vita, and a PC, but I pretty much only use that for Civ 5.

 

[Rayansaki]

Mainly PC, but do have a PS3 just for exclusives.
