arrow What do you game on?

Just like the question in the title says, what do you game on? I game on PS3 these days, but am seriously considering building another gaming PC where my passion used to lie, so what do you game on?

Re: What do you game on?

Used to be a PC gamer for many years, but I prefer handhelds these days due to their pick up and play nature. Used to have a DS but swapped it for a PSP a couple of years ago which I enjoy playing with.

Re: What do you game on?

I used to be PC exclusive up until just about a month ago. I now also have the newest XBOX 360 S with the 250 GB HDD.

Games that support Eyefinity definitely get my attention for the PC. And, if the image quality of the demos for the 360 don't measure up, I go with PC version if it's available.

If I wanted to, I could get a few games for my cellphone but those don't really appeal to me at this time.

Re: What do you game on?

In no specific order.
I game on PC (desktop...and netbook), PS3, Xbox 360, Nintendo DSi, Steem (as a previous ST series owner).

I very rarely play a level of pacman on my mobile phone.

I own but haven't touched in years, a Nintendo Wii, so I do not count it as a platform I game on.

Re: What do you game on?

PC. Speaking of which, I downloaded Crysis demo last night and I'll give it a spin later today. If I like it, I might get the game, it's been tempting me every time I walk past a bargain bin for some time.

Re: What do you game on?

DS and PC.

I consider today's consoles too online-centric for my tastes. Only thing I do online is browse the web, not play games over it, so I don't bother with the consoles. The PC is annoying enough with the constant with updates that various programs always are hassling you to install.....or games that want to be connected to the net all the time.

Getting kind of sick of that, you know?

Re: What do you game on?

PC is my main gaming platform but i also have the 360 and PS3 but don't get around to them much due to the fact that someone decided to only put 24 hours in one day.

Mig, just keep practicing. I like FPS too and can enjoyably play through them on the consoles even though there are some frustrating moments. Come on, how could you resist Resistance?

Re: What do you game on?

Or the looks of Killzone 2?

What about third person shooters, do you play them on consoles?

For the PS3 I have 50 Cent Blood on the Sand which is very fun although I wouldn't say it is a great game. Or Infamous!

Only Red Dead Redemption as a third person style... I know it sounds a little odd to say i don't like FPS games on cosoles....while the position of the character is the only difference.

Its just down to the keyboard & mouse combo i prefer for FPS games...

Re: What do you game on?

I don't disagree with you, I just think you mind want to think of playing at least the exclusives on the console.

Re: What do you game on?

I picked up Gears of War the other day for my 360 for $8 used. This one is the Platinum version with the Bonus Map Pack for MP.

Since I've been "practicing" with the 360 controller on my PC, I'm doing decently well using the controller on the console now.

I kind of had to take a break from RDR just to change the style of play for a little while. That's all I'd been playing almost since I got the console a month ago.

Otherwise, I'm about to wrap up Call of Juarez on the PC.

SPOILER ALERT:
I'm at the point where dynamite sticks are being tossed into the dungeon prison cell and I have to shoot them before they hit the ground. For some reason...maybe it's the DX10 I'm playing...I'm having trouble actually SEEING the sticks and any indication that I've targeted them.

END SPOILER ALERT
