PC. Why? Mainly, at this point in the console life cycle its not worth it for me to bother getting a console. And the vast majority of games that come out on consoles come out and look far better on my PC and can run mods. And PC gaming has Steam sales and Amazon sales with good digital downloads.

PC just offers so much more flexibility with just about everything. I'm probably going to build a home theater/gaming PC next now that Steam has their Big Picture Mode out. I'll be curious to see what the new consoles can do, as certain exclusives and sports games would be the only big reason for me to get back into consoles.

Upgraded my PC several years back and haven't looked back since. There is just so much more you can do with a PC. Steam offers great service and there are always sales going on.

Obviously the games look better too and I prefer to game with my mouse and keyboard.

No real hardware preference. As far as for specific games, you could say I prefer music games on console, but that's more due to the seemingly lackluster amount of PC music games(outside of DDR emulators like Stepmania). Ultimately, I go where the good games are.

Prefer PC, and in fact if i really like a game I'll get it on PC as a sign of my...recommendation, something like that.

PC and Xbox 360.

Most modern games I get for Xbox if I can. My PC isn't good enough to run recent material.

You really don't need as much as you might think, though.

SSD (solid state disks) are unnecessary, RAM over 4 GB on a 32-bit system is unnecessary, multi-hundred dollar graphics are unnecessary, etc. You can get by cheap, very cheap, trust me.

I play most games on my PC, but I'd rather be playing my Gamecube, best console ever. Wish they made Fallout for it.

PC because it's the superior platform by a wide margin.

I built two PC's for my friends just 2 weeks ago and only spent $650 on each which included shipping and taxes. It's really not expensive and you'll save on ton on games if you wait for sales.

For me PC. I have a friends PS3 in my place but nothing really interests me that he has I do like jRPG's like Vagrant Story so I play it sometimes otherwise I don't play on anything else.

 Mostly PC although I do enjoy some PS3 every now and then for when I get friends around or for PS3/Console only games. I use my Vita for when I'm out and about mostly.

Same. Although a tablet would be nice to have if I had the money.

If a game is mod-able, as in, they have a CK, then I get it for PC. I CAN NOT imagine playing Skyrim on a console, it is not the true Skyrim...it's like a demo for skyrim.

I'm getting RE6 for the 360 mainly because I want to play COOP with my best buddy.

Assuming there is no MP, I will be getting Metal Gear Ground Zeroes for the ps3.

I do not favor one system over the other....but I believe certain games are better on certain systems.

My husband and I each have our own XBox, and laptop, and share one PS3, but we both prefer playing on XBox. The PS3 is a glorified BluRay and 3D machine now, and the laptops are mostly just for iTunes.

PC gamer from the advent of shooters to about 2006.  XBOX 360 from 07-11/12. 

Now I'm back to PC for mods, graphics and higher perfomance, because the 360 is one seriously outdated piece of hardware, and way too restrictive.  But I did enjoy MP and lobbies with friends for the time I was there.  Oh, and I did bring my 360 controller with me, because it's nice to have the choice of keyboard and mouse OR the convenience of the controller that I learned well to use over 4 years, with all the advantages of PC performance and graphics, Nexus and Steam.

Just play Skyrim on each, and you'll never touch that thing again...well except for HALO 4 (343, don't let me down) and Gears Judgement (Epic...eh, they'll never let me down)! Image IPB

I prefer PC, because you can mod games. But I also got X360. My PC is not really good and I still have WinXP (come at me bro!). And there's also Forza on Xbox :)

I play on the PC platform.

I dont care about exclusives that dated consoles get.

I want to play games at their full potential and mods are nice.
