Ug, have you ever wanted to play a game, but didn't have the system to play it? Like when Brawl came out, i was psyched to play it, but couldn't because I don't have a fucking wii. Or I wanted Halo3 but did not have a 360. It's so fucking annoying how game companies can't branch out to more than 1 freaking system.

That's why there are exclusives. They make you buy a console if you want a particular exclusive for it.

If that happened, there would be a war between America, Europe, and Japan.

World War f***ing three, bitch.

I usually frequent the VG and collaboration Forums. If you find me anywhere else, I'm lost and can't find my way back.

True. Metal Gear Solid 4 is reason enough for me to buy a PS3.

Buying a console just for one game is weak.

*sigh*

I'm not saying that the PS3 has no games. I'm saying that buying a console for one game is pointless.

Like how computer manufacturers united under Windows.

And then Mac came along with its 'witty' ads and 'fantastic' software.

Why Europe? None of the three console companies hail from there- Nintendo and Sony are Japanese, while Microsoft is American.

I think the PS3 dominates the europe market, the 360 for the US market and the Wii for the Japanese market.

Really? Little Big Planet, Resistance 2 and Killzone 2 are all massive contenders. Especially as GoW2 is the only decent exclusive 360 game yet to come out.

Yeah, and Too Human, Alan Wake, Fable 2 and Banjo-Kazooie don't exist.

The PS3 is dieing horribly over here, new games are $100/£50 and nobody is willing to spend that much, the Wii is dominating Europe at the moment.

Yeah, we've had discussions about the Pros and Cons of the PSWii60 before. It would either be a great thing or an atrocious thing. Great for say, Rock Band or Guitar Hero, but sucky for most other things.

This, I used to want a 360 just to play Gears and Gears 2 when it comes out, but PC saved that cash.

To paraphrase the incredible Yahtzee Croshaw, I'm white enough to own all three consoles. Yay! :D

But in lieu of affluence and Judaism, it's important to pick your consoles carefully. Never buy on brand loyalty impulses or past glory alone. Then you end up with a PS3...
