    I own a 360 and a Wii, but a gaming PC is always considered the best imo.

    I have a PS3 which is good for quick games or just a short time sink.

    However, for quality gaming (STO, SWTOR, etc), I prefer my gaming PC. If I go to my brother's, who hosts LAN parties every now and then, I bring my gaming laptop. It isn't as good as my desktop, but the portability just wins out. Smile

    It's a close call between XBox and PC - now in my case the PC wins, but then again I have spend some serious cash on it. If you go and buy a PC off the shelf like for like then the XBox is the clear victor.

    I have Xbox 360, Wii and PS3. I use them to collect all the dust in my room Big Grin

    For me I use my Gaming Laptop (Alienware M14x) which is great for playing my games on the move. But i chose Gaming Computers because they seem to be really really cool. I just like the fact that Gaming Laptops seem to keep the value better. after 2 years i can sell my laptop for 60% of its original value.

    It has to be a gaming PC for me, there's a wider variety of games and peripherals which (usually) fit everyone’s needs.

    Since I mainly play MMOs and FPS games I find that a keyboard and mouse handles far better than a controller when it comes to shooting people in the face.

    I do have a PS3 and Xbox 360 but they’re just for the odd occasion I feel like picking up a pad and having quick play of something. I generally get the ‘exclusive’ games which are console only such as the Metal Gear series, Gran Turismo and Little Big Planet for PS3 and Gears of War and Forza for the 360.

    I went with the gaming laptop.....mainly because my pc is just old and I barely ever turn it on....it has become nothing more than extra storage space. I have always been more of a pc guy though. Consoles are fine for some games, but I have always preferred the freedom and modding ability that the pc offers. That and as some others have said, for FPS games I have to have my mouse and keyboard.
