The console, especially the Xbox 360, continues to climp higher and higher up my preferred gaming system of choice... sure i know my smokin, hot wife... I mean PC... looks better and is moddable... but for overall gaming, friends list, in game comms, no or little tech issues... the 360 is the clear winner to me... alot of great games this past year, and quite a few nice once coming in 2012. And the console is just as tactical and team based as the PC... games are made tactical by the gamer... so don't worry... SimHQ's console section will be as strong as ever in 2012...

So...

Happy New Year you damn console gamer!

Happy New Year fellow SimHQ consolers!

2011 was the year where I first joined this console world, I bought a PS3 for GT5 and loved the 100s of hours I have spent addictively lapping Nordschleife and collecting cars, and the awesome latest 2.0.2 patch this last week has revived my interest and is taking up my time again.

I also picked up a Xbox360 this year to partake in the fun that is Forza and have really enjoyed FM4 although I still have a ton of game to go in that one if I can ever pry myself away from the "Rivals" mode.

RDR is another awesome game I would never have discovered if not for the console. At this point I like owning both consoles and they are about even for gaming but we've recently added a second Xbox360 in the bedroom for the excellent media streaming capabilities.

Here's to a great 2012.
