i want a console

Hey afternoon everyone,

basically i want a games console but i have no idea where to start. I want something which i can play games on and have fun.

Can anyone help me because its all confusing to me :p

thanx

Afternoon.

When you say fun, what do you really mean... on your own? With friends at home? Online with friends? Shooters? non PC games? rpgs? Sports? HD important? Films?
 
Dreamcast or an N64

+1, however if you are after this Gen then the 360 is a good console but the PS3 has some really good games just not as many. Getting a 360 will cost the same as a PS3 now days though if you plan on getting Xbox live/wireless and a charger.

just look at the exclusives.
 
For cheap fun that lasts a month or two by a Wii.

It's a bit of a waste of time suggesting a 360 or PS3 because it's clear you're not in to games much.
 
Thanx for everyones help. there have been some helpful suggestions there :p

how did u get that im not into games much?? why would i be interested in buying a games console otherwise?? :confused:
 
Because ** a girl lol girls dont liek games innit (edit: assuming you are actually a girl going by your name anyway :o)

On a proper note, and ignoring my earlier nonsense, you honestly can't go wrong with any of the three current consoles. Regardless of what people on here will no doubt try to tell you, they're all ace in their own way. Just go with whichever interests you the most.

Prefer local multiplayer with prefereably four people, or want to relive old games? Get a Wii.
Prefer internet multiplayer and more shooters and racing games than you can shake a stick at? Get a 360.
Like a 360 but want a shiny black console and MGS? Get a PS3.
 
How much do you have to spend? What type of games do you like? Considering the games that are available, I would honestly say a PS3 if you're female (going by what my missus likes atleast) She prefers games like Ratchet & Clank, Everybodys Golf, Uncharted etc... None of which are available on the 360. If you like (for example) WW2, modern combat or FPS shooters in general, you may want to think about the 360 instead.
 
ok lets clear one thing up here yes i am a girl. :p
i like to play fighting shooting games. games which involve violence r always a good selling point for me.
 
Just kill someone with a knife, it's what all the hardcore gamers are doing nowadays anyway instead as the games this gen aren't that good so it's more to kill people on the streets innit.

Violent games are to blame.

Maybe not, but get a 360.
 
Xbox360 has Dead or Alive 4 which is a good fighting game, and you can get Street Fighter 2 and Mortal Kombat 3 cheap on the arcade, then or course you have Soul Calibur IV coming with Yoda as a playable character coming out very soon.

PS3 has Tekken 5 on the arcade for not so cheap, but Soul Calibur IV is also coming with, I believe, Darth Vader as a playable character.

If you want violence, then Xbox360 is the way to go with games I think as it does have several.
 
At this moment in time, still the 360 if you like gaming.

PS3 only if you're really into Hi-Def movies.

Wii if you're old and/or fat.
