Poll: Highest "Fun/Time spent" ratio?

[Onyx Oblivion]

Lately, I've been going to my DS more and more lately. I still play my 360 more, but the fun/time ratio is not nearly as high as on my DS. I get more enjoyment from each minute that I play the Ace Attorney games or Professor Layton or Pokemon Diamond or Castlevania or Luminous Arc than I ever got from any console.

EDIT: If you can't figure it out, fun is when you have a silly grin plastered to your face while playing a game. So, whatever system brings out that silly grin the most for the amount of time you play it is the one you should vote for. Also, vote while grinning.

EDIT 2: Added new console to poll, the Phillips CD-i

EDIT 3: I'm mainly talking about games, this internet thing is entertaining, so that may give PCs a definite "edge", what with their awesomely intuitive "browsers" that can be navigated with this "mouse" thing and such.

EDIT 4: If a console is backwards compatible, the current console is what you vote for if you liked the older console. If you have the best ratio with the Gamecube, you vote for the Wii. Not all PS3's are BC. N-Gage removed. GBC/GB added, since the DS doesn't play anything older than GBA games.

PS3. something about it just feels right. Feels like a gamer's machine

My computer is rarely on at home. 360 is wired up to my 37" HD tv, next to my sofa. So 360!

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Well for games my 360.

But for hilarious comics and whatnot I go with my PC.

If only the 360 had an internet browser.

Wii. It hasn't been played as much but when it does get played, usually as a family or group of friends, hilarity ensues.

360.

There's something about the freedom of a good Sandbox game, like Saints Row 2, and the chaos that can be caused which brings out the happiness in me!

Something about it just feels wrong; the controller.

I have most fun on the Xbox 360. The Xbox live feature is fantastic.

I heard people complaining about the annoying people on Xbox live. Having bought Left 4 Dead on PC this weekend I can tell you that annoying xbox live users have nothing on their PC counterparts.

If it's stupid grin inducement you're after then:

No More Heroes
World of Goo
De Blob
Disaster DOC
HotD: Overkill

All serotonin-smile catalysts of the very highest order.

PC without a doubt.

So many things to do

I almost answered PC, but then I thought, if we're considering, as some people are, the amount of time spent on all things you do on there, I thought about all the un-fun PC activities I've been required to participate in the history of forever, and realized the answer MUST be either the DS or the PS2. Probably PS2 because it has Guitar Hero and that never gets old.

 

[SenseOfTumour]

PC for the sheer range of stuff you can do, but in terms of gaming, PS2.

With things like God Hand, Katamari Damacy, etc, there's some genuine joy to be had.

I admit I don't own a current gen machine tho, but my friends do and they seem sorely lacking in purely fun games, tho the 360 has 'beautiful katamari' of course.

I actually find the controller much more comfortable to hold and use than a 360's.

I voted for my PC. I spend most of my life on it, so it makes sense.

How can you find the PS3 Controller comfortable. Don't you get sore thumbs from the D-Pad? Don't you get annoyed by the convex pads on the analogue stick?

I grew up playing on a NES and using the clacky keyboard of a c64, so to me a dual shock is much better than either. While I agree that a 360 controller is comfortable, I still much prefer the PS design. I dislike the triggers on the Dual Shock 3 though.

What about those of us that get equal enjoyment out of both the 360 AND the PS3? Such as myself.
