If you only were able to have only 2 consoles (ONLY TWO) and the ONLY choices were Wii, Xbox 360, and PS3, which would it be?
Console choice

PS3 and PS3
I would then sell one of the PS3's and buy a Wii and an Xbox
-
Genius. Simply Genius.
I'd do that too, since I like refii's idea so much XD.
Though I would pick the Wii and the PS3 if I couldn't buy two of the same things.
-
You'd probably have more luck selling the Wii.

PS3 and PS3
I would then sell one of the PS3's and buy a Wii and an Xbox
This is the correct answer. But if I had to choose two without taking that loophole, I'd probably make it a PS3 and an XBox 360.

SPFFFFT, you youngin's and your new fangled systems. I still love my NES and my SNES. huggles

^Whatever old man (or woman)
I would stick with my 360 and Wii. It's all I need to make my life meaningful.
-
Honestly, I'd take the ds and psp over those three any day. :P
-
Wii and DS, 360 and PS3 don't really capture me, and the PSP was probably the worst £100 I spent in my life.
-
PS3 is just too expensive right now. Besides, most of the games I'm interested in are in the 360 and Wii. So I go with those too.
A DS would be nice as well though…
-
Wii and X360 for me, oh look, I already have those, too bad Sony.
-
I already have a Wii so a PS3 and an Xbox 360 if y'please.
If I can't do that, then just a Wii and a Ps3.
-
Well, someone told me yesterday that the graphics for the PS3 will get better than the Xbox360 in a year or so.
-
Even if this was true given the fact nobody buys it the devs simply won't bother to take advantage of the PS3 supposedly superior specs and will simply churn out multiplatform titles that'll look exactly the same on Sony and Microsoft's systems.
Anyway on topic, Wii and Xbox360 probably… Though none of these systems really appeal to me at the moment to be honest.

Quoted for infinite truth and wisdom!!! At least somebody around here has the right idea…
-
I already have all three but if I didn't it would be the PS3 and Wii.
The 360 is ok but the PS3 is an all round easier system to get the hang of and all the games that I think look good on the 360 are coming out on the PS3. The Wii is just something on it's own completely it's a different style of gaming. Different isn't always better though and it can lose it's charm quite quickly.

It should be required by law to own a Wii and play it regularly, or you get the death penalty.
As for the 360 and PS3, pick between one, console fanboys will tell you theirs is so much better than the other that there's no choice, so you can't really get the fact by voting.
If you must have graphics get a PS3, I kid you not, the graphics on it are almost as good as pre-rendered CGI. It's amazing.
If you like FPS games are still good graphics, go with the 360. It has some great games, like KoToR, which even if you don't like Star Wars is probably one of the best RPG games ever made. It has Halo, which some people don't like but it's really a good game. And THere's some pretty sweet stuff coming like TimeShift.
I'd probably say PS3 because PlayStation has stuff like GTA and Guitar Hero, but the Xbox has those too now. And who knows what may go over to the Wii.
So if you like great games and great but still not top graphics I'd go 360, but if you want Blu Ray and the best graphics ever made outside of CGI, go PS3.
But no matter what you need a Wii.
GearSecond requires it….BY LAW.

i wouldn't put Wii on such a high pedastal like some people here seem to.
Yes it's a whole new way of gaming, yes Wii sports is fun, yes it's the cheapest console to buy. What is really letting the Wii down is the lack of top draw titles. Zelda was good but was is the key word here because everyone has probably completed it by now and did so a while ago. There are a few titles, Brawl, Corruption, Galaxy that are really talked about and they still seem a while off yet ( All Nintendo as well). The Virtual Console is good but all it really is is old games that we are asked to pay for again. 'Wow' we can play the old Zeldas! Hang on, I did that, hmm….
If my experiences with it are anything to go by it's the console that you'll use for about a week when a good game actually comes out and then it'll sit there quietly for about 2 months until the next game eventually comes out.
What the Wii really needed was strong developers working behind it before the launch so we could be getting a good stream of decent titles onto the shelves.Yes, I would recommend it but don't really expect it to be something you'll be rushing home to everyday.

I'm going to laugh when their cartridge batteries die and they'll just roll on the floor crying with useless heaps of plastic

Wii and PS3. I'm dying for a Wii. A PS3, even tho they screwed up I was always with Sony with Playstation and Playstation 2, and I'm gonna want the PS3 for certain games that are gonna come out.
-
Tough decision, but Wii and Xbox 360 solely due to affordability, as I really don't find any real edge on any of the console's game library at the moment. I'll probably change my mind in the future.
-
Out of what I don't have?
A Wii and a SNES. I always wanted to own a SNES, even if the Wii can download games for it and there are a million GBA remakes of them. If it has to be current gen, I'd buy a 360 instead, I guess.

You can replace them…

Okay, I have to confess something. I made this thread because I can't choose the consoles I want. I know now I want a Wii, but I can't choose whether or not I should get a Xbox 360 or PS3.
-
Wii and….
this is tough... 360 or PS3... hm... flips a coin... PS3... but only if it is under $500... or if I have an unlimited amount of cash in this hypothetical question.
-
Wii and PS3.
Wii because Nintendo fanboy am I.
PS3 mostly for the PS/PS2 back catalog and that one SF2HD game. -
This sold me a Wii(click the lastest trailer, the GDC 07 one) and gave me and awesomegasm.
And right now I'd take an Xbox360 over a PS3, but my opinion might change in a couple of years.

Edit: oh shit double post
delete plz -
Well let's see…
We'll be seeing some pretty awesome games for the PS3, especially graphics wise. GTA is a great series, so the gameplay will be good, and PS3 graphics will make it awesome. I don't think many of the PS Exclusives will be nearly as good on the Xbox.
On the other hand, the Xbox is getting some good games soon. TimeShift looks like a must have, Halo 3 and if it happens Gears of War 2 will be great as well.
My recommendation is this:
1: Graphics. If you must have the best, go PS3
2: Good Games. if you like good games, get an Xbox 360. Former exclusives on the PS will still likely be just as good, and since you didn't already pick the PS3 from the Better Graphics part, you probably don't care if they don't look as good.
But no matter what anyone says, get a Wii, it's worth it. The biggest complaint is paying for games again on Virtual Console, but still, it's a good idea and it's not like it costs a ton for your favorite games.
