Take this poll for what you will, but the results did make me laugh for a moment.

The site the poll was on was Gamefaqs.com, a site with guides for tons of different platforms.  It had thousands of replies to the poll.

I don\'t intend to use this poll to prove a point, it just struck me as worthy of mentioning.

Click here.

*Edit* For comparison, press list all polls at the bottom of the page.

gamefaqs polls are crap. If you visit any of the message boards on any given day, at least 2 of the forums will be complaining about how dumb and pointless they are.

Example - What system will have the best looking games. I believe the winner was PS2, followed by GC, and last by a long while was X-Box. Simply retarded.

Online polls resemble such a small fraction of the gaming population that it\'s not even funny. In other words, they mean nothing.

As wussy as it makes me feel, you guys are right.  After I found the comparison polls I realized that they\'re all pretty worthless.  According to them, no one is into PS2, GCN, Xbox, PC, or GBA....

I wish I had stronger convictions here so maybe this thread would float at the top longer. :)  Oh well!

Unfortunately, the only way to make a thread float at the top here is to say "Console \'A\' sucks and console \'B\' rocks."  I don\'t think it\'s worth dropping to that level though. :)

I agree with you, all Console \'A\' has going for it is Halo.

Whoops, I know I didn\'t just...

Gamespot had a poll..

I think about 10 000 people voted for PS2..
and 5-6k for XBOX and 4k for GC!

Polls are worthless ;) :eyemouth:
