That's right, a new poll is here. This week we want to know which gamin' console is your favourite?
Last poll we had; "Do you plan on purchasing Doom 3?"
There was 688 votes placed. 286 people voted "Yes", 127 people voted "No", 174 people voted "I'll try the demo first" and 101 people voted "I'll get it some other way".
So what's your favourite gamin' console?

Atari 2600 is the KING!!!! Nothing has come close since. I'm way too uncoordinated to use those stupid pads, give me a joystick and a button and I can rule!
NOTHING BEATS CARS WITH WHEELIE BARS!!!! WEll... maybe an ice cold beer!
Why isn't Coleco on that list. Maybe we need an older staff member to do the polls so I won't feel so old.
Now for the news:

The game Coleco selected was Nintendo's 1981 arcade hit Donkey Kong. Before the end of 1982, they had sold 600,000 units. Nine games were available for ColecoVision at the system's launch, most being converted arcade games. Coleco attracted considerable consumer interest by releasing a large number of arcade titles for play on their system. The ColecoVision system offered 48K of RAM (Random Access Memory) and was powered by an 8-bit Z-80A microprocessor. It was unique for allowing up to 32 sprites be displayed on-screen at any one time.
On a whim I bought Silent Hill 3 for my PC *sigh* by the time I get my PC upgraded, I could have bought the game in the bargain bin.
Minimum specs are 1 gig Pentium 3 AND 32 bit video card. Crazy when a $200 console like Xbox owns a $2000 PC - bought both at the same time (Xmas 2001?) but only use the Xbox to play DVDs mostly.
