Even if I spot an old Playstation hooked up to a guy's TV, I'm not going to pass judgment—ok, so maybe I'm secretly wishing he had a Wii hiding somewhere. In a recent article by Kotaku, a panel of gamers were asked the tough questions about what a console says about a guy—Now I've got your attention don't I?!
The experts include NY-based psychologist Carl Arinoldo, DeVry University's Ed Magnin, online gaming network CEO Ted Owen and GameTrailers.com's Shane Satterfield. Here's a little fun quiz to help shed some light on guy gamers and their "choice of console." Keep in mind that all answers are personal opinions of the experts.

My boyfriend wants an X box.
1My guy has an X360 and two old Playstations and he wants a PS3 for Christmas/our anniversary. I wnat a Wii and he said Santa might be nice to me and I said "Baby, I hope Santa doesn't bring me a gaming device..."
2i know guys that own almost every gaming device. they have devices from the old nintendo to he new Wii and PS3
3What does it mean if a guy (my boyfriend) has a Xbox 360, an Xbox, a PS2, a Wii, and a DS, and I have a NES and a SNES?
Wait, never mind, I probably don't want to know..
4I'm not thee only one who has a vast collection of consoles around the house? Whew! That's a relief.
5my boyfriend has a PS3 but is definitely not "Wealthy"!
6hey just gets what he wants...
AM I the only one who thougth PlayStation meant reg playstation, and XBox meant reg x box? why didn't it say PS# or xbox 360?
I am a Wii girl...I also have a game cube, gameboy advance, nintendo 64, sega genesis, and NES all in working order. (and I have downloaded both NES and super NES games onto my Wii...I love that feature).
7Oooh I didn't know you could get old school NES and SNES games on a Wii... great feature!
8I have a working NES also but I never play it. Actually it could be not working and I wouldn't know.
I used to date a guy that was waaay to into games. It's a turn off. I get so sick of watching people die in Halo or all those other 1st person shooter games. That gratuitous violence affects my sensibilities.
terryt18: if ou go to this link: http://www.nintendo.com/search?query=virtual+console&category=all
It will tell you what game titles are available for download. then you buy a card at the store or online to get "Wii Points" (looks like a gift card...) then you go online with your Wii, and buy the games! It's fun! some you can play with the Wii mote, some you have to plug in your game cube controllers....I have mario 1, mario 2, and super mario world (with yoshi) so far.
9Wowzas xstarsprinklesx! That is quite the collection.. we won't even begin to analyze that
10I like it when I show up to a guy's place and he has old school systems like Sega Genesis or Super Nintendo, or original Nintendo!! That's the only way I can beat him :blush:
11We're not big on console games, but we play games on the computer. What does that mean? We have two X360's but it's just because he got an x-box for xmas one year and he stuck w/them. They're mostly just used as DVD players.
12Interesting. I'm a Nintendo person myself, so I already knew that Wii owners are fun!
13Nintendo all day, baby. I have a PSP aswell. My boyfriend is an avid Sonic fan and Sega fan. He saves Segas from garage sales.
Game gears can be fun
14haha my boyfriend wants a 360 and wii.
I want the wii.
15we have a PS3 and Wii in our house. My BF bought me a Wii for my birthday.
16yeah they needed to be PS3 and Xbox360 in the titles, cause if i guy has a playstation he really isn't keeping up on gaming trends!
17ha ha my score was really embarrassing =))
18PlayStation does not equal PS3...
Also, people thinking that owning a 360 means you play well with others is a load... anyone who thinks that has never been on voice chat before or been teabagged.
My husband has every system since the Atari... It's one of the reasons I love him
19What does it mean if my boyfriend has a Xbox360, a PS3, AND a Wii?? Those, along with his enormous HDtv, are the biggest time-saps in our relationship.. but i love them all, including the boy
20We have everything except the Playstation products in our house. My husband and I are PS haters.
21I own Game Cube, PlayStation 2 and 3, Wii, Xbox and Xbox 360.
