I voted that I haven't turned one on in 2 months - although I have, but only recently (when Forza 4 & GT 5 turned up).. but I have;

PS3, XBox360, Wii, GameCube, DreamCast, PS2 and PSX.. ok, I'll admit, the last four are upstairs on a shelf..

Actually world sales figures of RRODBox and PS3 are very similar. And PS3 was realised nearly a year after RRODBox.

As to BluRay - it is rather good, so much better than DVD and I have a good DVD player.

BTW I have found that there are only 3 games exclusive to RRODBox that are not anywhere else that I would want to play, and the rest of that series is on PC anyway.

Serious gamers ? Words fail me. ;D ;D
Sad or otherwise, some people spend a lot of time getting into their games ;)

I'm not old enough to own a SNES..  :P ;D

I jest - I am, of course - but back when the SNES/MegaDrive/GameGear etc were all the rage I was one of those people who looked down on consoles and owned a 'proper computer'. ISTR a ZX Spectrum at the time ;D (followed later by an Amiga 500)..

It all went downhill rapidly after I bought my PSX (shortly after release - I remember paying the best part of £450 for the console, 2nd controller and some games)

My phone at the moment  ;D

I'm addicted to Angry Birds  ;D ;D
I don't know why, but that game really grates on me.
First time I saw it was when I discovered it was one of the pre-installed apps on my phone, it didn't last long before it was uninstalled along with all the other bloatware that O2 decided their customers want (why they do it I don't know).

Sue bought the two cartridge consoles before we got married, I was playing a few VIC 20 games - some of them were rather good!

Wii - last used I think when Alex played Super Mario Galaxy 2 earlier in the year.

Last time I actually enjoyed a computer game it was certainly an 8 bit machine. Spectrum or BBC Micro, I reckon. ;D

Seem to recall playing Elite on the BBC B's at school.... Then playing it on the Spectrum 48K at home.... Strangely all the 128K Version added was better music IIRC!

I remember Psion producing Chess on the 1K ZX81!

.. and it didn't have that flickery display mode switching at the top of the instrument panel to save memory.

Funnily enough, I powered up my old BBC tonight as I needed something that would generate a video signal to test an old monitor. ;D
