I really like both. It just depends on the situation. If I have a few minutes to spare I don't fire up my console as by the time I am in I am off doing something else. Also out and about or waiting for something a quick game does wonders to pass the boredom. When I have time my consoles come into play

Lol Console because consoles ARE FOR GAMING that is all.

Werd, by far the worst article this year, who is going to compare a machine that is specialized in a certain thing to a phone....-_-

They do this all the time. They need to stop putting up comparison articles on this site. We aren't their target audience for casual mobile games but they still want our attention for kneejerk clicks.

Why is this even a question? Mobile games are a way to pass the time while sitting on the toilet. Consoles are a life long hobby and passion.

Is this a serious question !! Theres only one place to play games and in not on a 3 inch touch screen its on a 42 inch flat screen with a controller in hand !!

Why not both? They offer different experiences which might be better at specific times. Handhelds like PS Vita and 3DS can be just as fun as playing consoles sometimes.

Mobile gaming, I love to tap up birds on my Iphone.

Personally, i would say none of the above. I like PC quite a lot better and in general, it's an all in one. But if I had to decide, I would say both. I love consoles, and I love handhelds. I like the idea of sitting back with my legs up on my couch while playing Saints Rows. But I also like being hunched back while playing Fire Emblem Awakening on the 3DS,and praying that my characters don't get raped by the enemy.
