- "I think that there's a place for everything, right? So, I think you have Xbox 360 if you are a console person for playing multiplayer games. PS3 pretty much always looks better (unless it's a port) because the hardware's more powerful and because the exclusives are better. I think it's better for single player."

CONSOLE WAR!!! is the 7th episode of Gamer Nation. It was released on November 10, 2012.
Description[]
The argument of all arguments. Which console is better?
Discussions[]
Jovenshire, Lasercorn, and Lisa taking a brief break from discussion.
Jovenshire, Sohinki, and Lisa discuss what their favorite game consoles are. Jovenshire prefers the Xbox 360 over the PlayStation 3 because he prefers the weight of the Xbox 360 controller and what he gets in Xbox Live (despite noting that PSN is free).
- Lisa calls herself an "Xbox girl", but also plays PS3 and PC.
- Sohinki said that the Xbox 360 for mostly multiplayer games, the PlayStation 3 is better for single-player and has better exclusives, but the PC has the best graphics and better connectivity.
- Jovenshire and Sohinki agree that it also depends on what each gamer is used to, and Lisa hugged Sohinki in agreement.
- Sohinki notes that Nintendo is the best for casual gameplay and gaming with friends in the same room, listing Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros., and Mario Party as examples.
- Jovenshire also notes the Nintendo has the best exclusives, listing various Nintendo franchises as Nintendo exclusives. He also complimented Nintendo on their superior marketing strategies, mentioning the Wii as an example of this.
- Ian states how much he dislikes gaming on a PC due to how expensive it usually is, rebuked Anthony's statement of the superior graphics because he "just want[s] to play a game".
- Anthony "has the most fun" with Nintendo games, being a strong Nintendo fan.
- Jovenshire reads the following comments off of Twitter:
- @PePla_ prefers PS3 because she does not have to pay for PSN.
- @Big_Hammer_ stated that it depends for him, saying that Nintendo is more family-centric, Xbox is better for first-person shooters, PC is better for strategy and RPGs, and everything else is better on PS3.
- @SwiftRamyru does not like console wars, and prefers "all of them".
