Microsoft.
Seriously, who would rather play a game on an iPad rather than an Xbox 360?

Take a look at what publishers, developers, Apple, and even the competition say. I said the iPad which is a better gaming device than the iPod.

For gaming, I would probably have the XBOX 360 (maybe the Ipad as well...)

Completely. The Xbox 360 is too much like the Dreamcast to let down.

I agree with Pinata's statement.

Xbox 360 all the way. I didn't even know you could game on an iPad...
Also I would rather have a PC.

This comparison has no understandable logic, but obviously Xbox 360 and PC. Mac's aren't really designed for gaming, and I didn't even know there were any games on the iPad that took longer than 30 minutes to beat.

What the hell is an iPad? And why would I choose the 360 over anything?

You may hate the 360, but would you really choose this:
over a gaming console if you wanted to play games? Hell, the thing doesn't even support flash.

Because if you don't act biased towards it and don't let the odds of RRoD get over you it's a pretty damn good system with many good games?Erazor wrote:What the hell is an iPad? And why would I choose the 360 over anything?

Apple.
At the moment, the Apple eco-system is a lot more diverse.
Sure, the devices are expensive... But they're portable, sleek, a lot less laggy than PCs (Unix core ftw) and they do a heck load more than just gaming.
The games/apps are cheap and it is super easy to connect to other players. Not to mention that their online store- the iTunes store- has a lot more than just games (music, movies, tv shows.. etc.).
I understand that iOS will never replace pure gaming handhelds when it comes to the quality, but if I were to chose one or the other, I'd chose an iOS device.
Additionally, I'd like to add that tablets and smart phones are starting to catch up, hardware-wise, with pure gaming platforms. More powerful multi-cored SoC's are being developed, as well as developer engines (take a look at sonic 4! which was ported fairly successfully to iOS, android and windows phone 7).
As a developer it takes a lot less effort for me to create a game for a smart phone as oppose to a hand-held gaming console (and I would probably sell more of it too! Since the entire market is online). More people playing the same games equates to better multiplayer experiences!
