My new years resolution last year for 2007 was to own each of the major consoles and a decent gaming PC by the end of the year. While I did not manage to achieve this by start 2008 (as I'm not exactly rolling in cash) I accomplished this by the middle of this year. My rationale was that I would never have to worry about whether or not I own the console whenever a new game came out that I wanted to play.
My friend had a different take on this concept, though, and he told me that he was perfectly fine with a good gaming PC (I won't bore you with the specs but suffice it to say that with a quad-core and two 8800GTS cards SLI'd it was capable of handling anything on the PC gaming market) and a PS3 that he'd be set for pretty much anything that he wanted to play. For him, any Microsoft exclusives that came out for the 360 would invariably come out on the PC within a reasonable time-frame and the PS3 would be used for Sony exclusives or cross-platform console-only games. Obviously the Wii is left out be he's the kinda who's not really into waggle.
So what do you guys think is your ideal combination of gaming platforms? What are the essential ones that you can't live without and what ones do you bypass or just not care about?
Which Console(s) Can/Can't you Live Without?
