Wasn't there already a thread like this? o well..
I'll go with the PS3, just cuz it can play the PS2 games. and there's alot of anime games for PS2 ^_^

but Xbox 360 gets Halo 3 (2.5?) =(
 
Hmm ... i wish that there was the PC there
That is by far the best gaming console, the longest and the best, it always will be
But if it was between PS3 and Xbox 360 ... i dunno ... but i will go with the Xbox ... seeing as though it looks cool :D
 
The PS3 is a very powerful machine, but I think the Xbox 360 is what I really need. Xbox Live, seamless Windows Networking, awesome console and controller design (some famous Japanese company designed it), all with a very balanced machine at an affordable price is what I really want.
 
yeah i will go xbox 360 too...ill try to find one of the threads about this for ya...you got alot of reading if you try to read it :D
