Yeah, I know, I've done this a million times already --BUT-- the end of this generation has TWO consoles that are pretty much equal in power, one with free online, the other with a better online structure. It's not going to be so clear cut which version of a game is the better one. A purchase decision may just come down to WHO ELSE THAT YOU KNOW IS GETTING WHAT PARTICULAR VERSION so you have someone online to play WITH. I've already asked about Borderlands 2 in the News Section and replies were varied and scattered. Can we keep it in here so each of us knows what the other is planning? Might mean the difference between having someone to play with or NO ONE at all!

Right now, it's PS3 for me.  Borderlands 2 will be on PS3.

If there are more people buying Borderlands 2 for PS3, for example, I'll buy it for that. If someone is planning on buying Persona Arena, I am most definitely getting the PS3 version due to the better controls. Yes, this is my general Pre-Order list so you'll see console exclusives listed there too. You can say whatever you are thinking of buying, but for the Multi-Console Ports please say which version you are most likely to get!

Ultimately I may get nothing on this list at all, but in an ideal world:

  • Persona 4 Arena - PS3
  • Jet Set Radio - PS3
  • NiGHTS Into Dreams - PS3
  • 007 Legends - PS3
  • Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed - PS3
  • Retro City Rampage - Console TBD

This list is also subject to change depending on if any new consoles show up in my possession. Wii U may get me yet, and the Vita is starting to make some strong arguements for ownership though I'm still not sure I'd really use a handheld enough.

I've been pretty much getting everything on PC and only using Xbox 360 and PS3 for exclusives. May start picking up some multi-platform games on the Wii U once that comes out.

Only thing I care about for the rest of the year is RE6, and that'll be on PS3 due to the lack of region locking.

If you seriously don't get Y4, or show some means of getting it this year I'll mail it to you so long as you mail it back.

Picked up Transformers: Fall of Cybertron for 360 today.

I've been thinking about Borderlands 2 a lot more lately: PC is the lead platform for this game, so 360 is the natural extension of that. This, combined with the fact that the PS3 version was a bug-filled MESS when it came out (probably due to porting issues), has lead me to decide to stick with the 360 version of it, too. Sorry, Travo! Anyone else getting the 360 version?
