I actually plan to buy a new console for Christmas and I wanted your opinion on which console you think is best based on their library and maybe price.
I'm looking at PS3, XBOX360, PSVita or Nintendo 3DS... not the most recent consoles which are overpriced and lacking in interesting games for now.
I'm leaning towards PS3 (huge library + lowered price) but still... there is the 3DS (but then again, I'm sick of seeing Mario everywhere and there aren't THAT much interesting games on it yet... and I heard Fire Emblem Awakening *one of the most attractive jRPG on the console* has chunks of its story in DLC... I hate those) with games like Ace Attorney 5 (one of my favorite series). XBOX360 seems empty (I looked at the library and the games are either available elsewhere or not really interesting to me... there is just a few interesting exclusive games I would miss, not much really).
Also, I'd like to know which games on those platforms are your favorites and which one would you basically recommand. I like RPGs (obviously, not sure I mind that much if they're japanese or not anymore, as long as they're good), original/creative games (so indie games for the most part I guess), games with great stories/characters (if those fail, a mindblowing gameplay and fantastic world/atmosphere could make me enjoy the ride *of course, i'd prefer games to be great as a whole lol*), adventure games with lots of fun things to do, i don't mind shooters as long as they aren't boring (I couldn't really stand the shooting in Bioshock Infinite while watching a LP so I doubt I would enjoy playing it... I heard the previous games were better balanced though and I LOVE the setting of this series in general)...
Honestly, I think the only genres I mostly avoid are mindless war games and sports games (unless they're really original and meaty)... and I don't really care about online stuff (I could warm up to it I guess but if it isn't free, I'm out) and obnoxious DLCs (I mean, when it's obvious they could have put the content in the main game but didn't because PROFIT).
