Game Console Survey! - Gifts of gold for filling it out!!!

[Feriku]

1. Do you own a PlayStation 3, X-Box 360, or WII? Please list all that apply (or none that apply, if you don’t own any of these systems yet you want one/plan to buy one, please skip down to question 5)

I own an Xbox 360 and a Wii.

2. How much (if you can remember) was your system when you bought it?

I can't actually remember how much the 360 was, but it had been out for a while already. The Wii was a gift, long after it had been out.

3. Do you like your game systems?

Yes.

a.If you bought more than one, which one is your favorite and why?

I like them both a lot, because they both have games I like for them. I can't really say one is better than the other.

4. Why in particular did you buy the particular game system? (Was there a specific game you could only get on that system? Was it cheaper? Are you brand loyal to that system? Friends own the same system? Better Reviews? Etc.)

I bought the Xbox 360 when I heard about Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. Finding out that there was finally going to be another Banjo-Kazooie sequel gave me a pressing need to get that system.

a.If you bought more than one system, why did you buy more than one?

The Wii was a surprise Christmas gift, but my parents got the idea because I occasionally rambled about how I wasn't sure if I wanted to buy one or not. There were games on/coming out for it that I was interested in, but I was still on the fence.

5. If you don’t own a system, yet you plan to buy one, is there a specific system you plan to buy?
a.Why do you want this system in particular? (Cheaper? Brand Loyalty? Specific game you can only get on this system? Etc.)

6. If you own only one or two of the three game consoles, would you send it back and buy one of the other ones or would you say you made a good choice buying that game console?

I'm happy with my 360 and Wii; I'd say I made a good choice.

One question, what is the purpose of this servey? Is it for a project at school or for fun?
Also, I do sometimes wish that I had one of the old, backwards-compatable PS3s

[AnimeDisneyFreak]

Thank you very much!! As for the answer to your question... The purpose is both for school and for fun. Mainly for school because its a final project for one of my classes. We had to pick our own topics, and I chose video game consoles, I kept it within video-games because it is a fun topic for me to cover.

1. I own a Nintendo Wii

2. Truthfully I had gotten it as a Christmas present a couple of years ago so I don't know how much it cost at the time

3. I prefer the Wii to the other two consoles

4. The reason is that I am able to play my GameCube games on it and the fact that there are a couple of pretty good Wii games too

5. I might buy a PS3 but I am not so sure yet

6. I say that it was a good choice on the Wii system

7. Have you ever played these Wii games in particular: NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams? SPRay? Little King's Story? If not than I recommend that you try them because they're pretty fun games.

1. Do you own a PlayStation 3, X-Box 360, or WII? Please list all that apply (or none that apply, if you don’t own any of these systems yet you want one/plan to buy one, please skip down to question 5)

I only own a PS3.

2. How much (if you can remember) was your system when you bought it?

I bought a new PS3 on sale for around $175, I think. I've only had it for about a year too.

3. Do you like your game system(s)?
a.If you bought more than one, which one is your favorite and why?
b.If you bought one, do you prefer a different system, or do you prefer your own?

b. I like my PS3. The wii occasionally gets some interesting looking games, but never anything that would make me want it over the PS3. All of the games that the 360 that I might be interested in are also available on the PS3, so I haven't lost anything at all there.

4. Why in particular did you buy the particular game system? (Was there a specific game you could only get on that system? Was it cheaper? Are you brand loyal to that system? Friends own the same system? Better Reviews? Etc.)
a.If you bought more than one system, why did you buy more than one?

I was expecting certain games by certain companies that I really like (NIS, ATLUS...) to be PS3 exclusives. And because it's Sony.
I'd also heard that the 360 had some problems and my older brother claimed the XBox he bought burned out way too quickly, so I went by what he said and never really considered an XBox. Or a Wii, because that's just not in my interests.

5. If you don’t own a system, yet you plan to buy one, is there a specific system you plan to buy?
a.Why do you want this system in particular? (Cheaper? Brand Loyalty? Specific game you can only get on this system? Etc.)

Not applicable.

6. If you own only one or two of the three game consoles, would you send it back and buy one of the other ones or would you say you made a good choice buying that game console?

Nooo, my PS3 doesn't get nearly as much use as my PS2 does, but it's still a good console.

7. Any other thoughts that you might want to add?Thank you for your time everyone!!!

Everyone in the gaming forum has moved on from console wars... right? It's been a while since I've frequently checked in here.

1. Do you own a PlayStation 3, X-Box 360, or WII? Please list all that apply (or none that apply, if you don’t own any of these systems yet you want one/plan to buy one, please skip down to question 5)
I own a Xbox 360 and Wii.

2. How much (if you can remember) was your system when you bought it?
The Xbox 360 was $125 used and the Wii was $200.

3. Do you like your game system(s)?
a.If you bought more than one, which one is your favorite and why?
b.If you bought one, do you prefer a different system, or do you prefer your own?
Yes, I like both systems. I've enjoyed the Wii more because of the game selection I have for it.

4. Why in particular did you buy the particular game system? (Was there a specific game you could only get on that system? Was it cheaper? Are you brand loyal to that system? Friends own the same system? Better Reviews? Etc.)
a.If you bought more than one system, why did you buy more than one?
I bought a Wii specifically for Monster Hunter Tri. I bought a Xbox 360 for numerous games.

5. If you don’t own a system, yet you plan to buy one, is there a specific system you plan to buy?
a.Why do you want this system in particular? (Cheaper? Brand Loyalty? Specific game you can only get on this system? Etc.)

6. If you own only one or two of the three game consoles, would you send it back and buy one of the other ones or would you say you made a good choice buying that game console?
I'm happy with the two systems I have. There are games I am interested in on the PS3, but not enough for me to want to purchase the system.

7. Any other thoughts that you might want to add?Thank you for your time everyone!!!
I'd say the game selection has always been the reason I've bought a system.

1. Do you own a PlayStation 3, X-Box 360, or WII? Please list all that apply (or none that apply, if you don’t own any of these systems yet you want one/plan to buy one, please skip down to question 5)
I have the PS3m and Wii.

2. How much (if you can remember) was your system when you bought it?
Sorry I dont remember.

3. Do you like your game system(s)?
a.If you bought more than one, which one is your favorite and why?
b.If you bought one, do you prefer a different system, or do you prefer your own?
Well I have more than those two systems, but between those I'm not sure. It's close because it's morely the games themselves I favor over the system. So let's call it a tie.

4. Why in particular did you buy the particular game system? (Was there a specific game you could only get on that system? Was it cheaper? Are you brand loyal to that system? Friends own the same system? Better Reviews? Etc.)
a.If you bought more than one system, why did you buy more than one?
Do you mean which one was more expensive? I dont know.
But I got the PS3 because I love Playstation. So, brand loyal I guess. Same thing with the Wii, but I loved the idea of moving while playing. I didn't get it much for the games besides any Mario game. I love the sport resort, is sooo much fun with when friends come over.

5. If you don’t own a system, yet you plan to buy one, is there a specific system you plan to buy?
a.Why do you want this system in particular? (Cheaper? Brand Loyalty? Specific game you can only get on this system? Etc.)
Can't answer this one.

6. If you own only one or two of the three game consoles, would you send it back and buy one of the other ones or would you say you made a good choice buying that game console?
Good choice. I love them.

I own a PS3

$300

3. Do you like your game system?
b.If you bought one, do you prefer a different system, or do you prefer your own?

Eh, the PS3 works. I like it for a few games but that's it. I have no preference over what system I have to either of the other two.

4. Why in particular did you buy the particular game system? (Was there a specific game you could only get on that system? Was it cheaper? Are you brand loyal to that system? Friends own the same system? Better Reviews? Etc.)

Always like the playstation series over anything else, went from a PS1 to PS2, to a PS3. Was more about a brand we liked as to being loyal to it.


5. If you don’t own a system, yet you plan to buy one, is there a specific system you plan to buy?
a.Why do you want this system in particular? (Cheaper? Brand Loyalty? Specific game you can only get on this system? Etc.)

N/A

6. If you own only one or two of the three game consoles, would you send it back and buy one of the other ones or would you say you made a good choice buying that game console?

I would say I made a good choice buying my current console. For as little as I play it.

1. Do you own a PlayStation 3, X-Box 360, or WII? Please list all that apply (or none that apply, if you don’t own any of these systems yet you want one/plan to buy one, please skip down to question 5)

Xbox, PC and wii. DS too but that's not on the list

2. How much (if you can remember) was your system when you bought it?

Don't remember off the top of my head how much the pc/Wii were although we did get the wii at a reduced price (or my grandmother bought it, I don't remember razz ), and my mom won the xbox during a contest at work.

3. Do you like your game system(s)?
a.If you bought more than one, which one is your favorite and why?
b.If you bought one, do you prefer a different system, or do you prefer your own?

I perfer my PC overall, because of modding for extra stuff for my favourite games like Baldur's Gate and Dragon Age.

4. Why in particular did you buy the particular game system? (Was there a specific game you could only get on that system? Was it cheaper? Are you brand loyal to that system? Friends own the same system? Better Reviews? Etc.)
a.If you bought more than one system, why did you buy more than one?

No real reason, they all had some games either me or my brother wanted and the Pc has the wonderful ability to surf the internet. razz

5. If you don’t own a system, yet you plan to buy one, is there a specific system you plan to buy?
a.Why do you want this system in particular? (Cheaper? Brand Loyalty? Specific game you can only get on this system? Etc.)

Might be nice to trade in the DS for a PSP someday so I can try Persona, but for now the DS has Pokemon so I'm sticking with it. smile

6. If you own only one or two of the three game consoles, would you send it back and buy one of the other ones or would you say you made a good choice buying that game console?


I'm good with what I've got. I know What I just said about the PSP but to be honest I could care less about ever trying persona when I've got friends who have a bunch of emulators.
7. Any other thoughts that you might want to add?Thank you for your time everyone!!!

Good luck with the rest of your answers. smile

"Forever...

1. Do you own a PlayStation 3, X-Box 360, or WII?

I own all three of the above.

2. How much (if you can remember) was your system when you bought it?

I think the Wii was like 400? It was back when it was first released. The XBox was like 300 or so? And the PS3 was like 300? I can't really remember all that well.

3. Do you like your game system(s)?
a.If you bought more than one, which one is your favorite and why?
b.If you bought one, do you prefer a different system, or do you prefer your own?

PS3 is my favourite. I started with a Wii, then I got the XBox360, and then the PS3. I hate the Wii, and the XBox, to me, isn't as enjoyable as the PS3. Also PSN is free?

4. Why in particular did you buy the particular game system? (Was there a specific game you could only get on that system? Was it cheaper? Are you brand loyal to that system? Friends own the same system? Better Reviews? Etc.)
a.If you bought more than one system, why did you buy more than one?

I bought the Wii because I thought it would be awesome. Then I bought the XBox because of Fable 2 and Left4Dead, and then I bought the PS3 because I thought we'd be gettting the PS3 version of Tales of Vesperia, and I also wanted to play some other PS3 games.

5. If you don’t own a system, yet you plan to buy one, is there a specific system you plan to buy?
a.Why do you want this system in particular? (Cheaper? Brand Loyalty? Specific game you can only get on this system? Etc.)

Not in particular.

6. If you own only one or two of the three game consoles, would you send it back and buy one of the other ones or would you say you made a good choice buying that game console?

N/A?

7. Any other thoughts that you might want to add?Thank you for your time everyone!!!

Good luck!
