Nintendo.

I always root for Nintendo though. :3 It’s my fav video game making company.

favorite games are pokemon, hahahahaha

i like the ds lite and the nintendo 64. :)

well out of these 3 microsoft

why becouse they own majority of the interwebs and made halo reach

but i actually think EA is supperior to all of these but…

I like Sony the most. The games on their systems have a ton of great storylines, which is good for me since I adore RPGs with good storylines. p: I would say Microsoft, but Xbox Live costs money per month, which is a huge turn-off for me. Although the 360 did have a ton of good games that didn’t need online such as Eternal Sonata, Tales of Vesperia, etc. Sony has more which completely outnumber the 360’s few good games; in my opinion. Plus, the 360 is mostly for people who like shooters, which isn’t really my forte in gaming. xD;

Another reason I chose Sony is because I love my Playstation 2, as well as my Playstation 3. The Playstation 2 had a very wide-variety of games, which I just adored it for. The Playstation 3 has its few good games as well. I’m not really into shooters that much, especially on the PS3, but the PS3 does have quite a few exclusive games that I do love (Disgaea 3 and 4, LittleBigPlanet, Trinity Universe, etc).

Nintendo is really good too, although it’s not really my favorite company. It has a few games I like, although it’s not really a lot of them. It has a wide-variety of games, as well as a ton of opportunities with its handhelds, but it kind of doesn’t compare to Sony, in my opinion. Nintendo mostly targets a younger audience, while Sony targets teens. I love Nintendo’s handhelds a bit more than Sony’s handhelds though in terms of design, but in the category of games I like Sony’s handhelds.

Sony does make a good game.

I think they made the Ratchet and Clank games… those are good games. :)

Microsoft! I don’t know what games they make, I don’t care! All I know is that they provide good games to their systems. (Yes, Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2!!).

If these are game companions…then what are Valve and Namco Bandai? O_O

I have a tie between nintendo and sony… Nintendo really does go towards a younger audience as luli said but sony makes good RPG games (FFXIII/FFXIII2) but i also (sorta) like shooters… lately KH is all on DS (cant wait for next one) (obviously i’m a fan of square enix.)

This is actually really tough for me to answer, it really all depends on the time in my gaming career in which you ask this question… So I might as well come up with a few answers~

As of right now, I am more so a PC gamer than anything, in all honest I have some what given up on console gaming until something of interest shows up. My reasons behind this? :
Well for one the Xbox 360 if pretty outdated technology (At least in the current standards of modern gaming computers).
There really isn’t any games on the PS3 that I actually want to buy, If they would actually decide to put a new Kingdom Hearts game or a good Bioware title on the PS3, I would probably use the one I currently have much more, but that currently isn’t the case.
I still enjoy my Nintendo Wii, but the only problem is that I am missing specific materials to actually use it, and I am having a hard time finding replacement parts. If I had the things I needed, I would probably play things like Monster Hunter, or Mario Party/Kart (If friends or family were over, that is.)

So as of right now, my Xbox360, PS3, and Nintendo Wii are all collecting dust in storage~

So if I had to choose one of my favorite games as of this time (Which would have to be a PC title), it would be Star Wars: The Old Republic (Which also falls under my favorite game company since it is made by Bioware~)

If you were to ask me the same questions a few years ago, I would probably answer with the Xbox Original being my favorite console out of the three mainstream consoles (That being the Gamecube, PS2, and Xbox Original)

You are probably wondering why I chose the Xbox, given that the Xbox Original wasn’t all that great and was probably the least popular out of the three consoles at the time. It possibly had the poorest design out of them all (Examples being: The original Xbox was much less portable, very clunky controllers, not a very large range of games, and possibly the most expensive of the three consoles). So why did I pick it? I can sum it up with three names:
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II, The Sith Lords
&
The Elderscrolls III: Morrowind

I can not even imagine how much game times I have spent in all three of those games combined (Much more time then I spent on any other console, that is a fact). Morrowind alone I played for about two years, and I still play the two Knights of the Old Republic games to this day, having years of game play, and unlocking as many story options as I can.

I have to give the other two consoles some credit though, I had much more fun playing the Gamecube with my frieds or family, and I had some good times with my PS2 with games like the Kingdom Hearts series, Jak and Daxter, and many others…

The gamecube in my opinion had the best controller, but that is really all I can say up to this point… I could go farther back in consoles, but all of my answers would probably just be Nintendo related (-cough- N64 -cough-)
