I play PC games 90 - 99% of the time.

Occasionally play PS2 and PS3 games - the only games I buy for them are console exclusives like Ratchet & Clank, Jak & Daxter, Uncharted, Red Dead Redemption, etc.
Mainly pc, because I have no money for console games. Actually I don't have money for pc games either so I just play what I already have.

I do tend to tire of console games more quickly, though. I've only got three and have no interest in playing any of them now.
Been pretty much PC only since the SNES. Loved my NES and SNES as a kid but once I went PC I had a hard time going back.

I did get a PS1 and PS2 eventually for some console exclusives, mostly because I couldn't shake my love for Final Fantasy 6 which made me want to play 7 and the rest. I do plan to eventually get a PS3 for some modern console exclusives, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

It's less about PC elitism and more about not having the time to play all the PC games I want to play, let alone more. If any series I REALLY care about ever goes console only, like say Fallout or Deus Ex, I might be quicker on the draw. Red Dead Redemption was damn close.
I prefer consoles (except for strategy games) because there's just nothing to configure. Also big screen. However, when I have downtime, usually so does my wife, and she'd rather watch a show than watch me game... so I use my computer.

Also if I steal some time from working, I'll do it on my computer instead of going over to the console. Less guilt that way.
I play console games rather a lot at times but mostly play PC
I do, mostly my Wii and PSP.
I played on my SNES and Genesis fairly often until I had to pack them up to save space. Don't really take them out much any more.
Only console I ever owned was a SEGA Genesis, would use my dad's PS2 sometimes, otherwise PC only.

Licurg: That being said, if I had some spare cash, I'd buy a Wii to play Xenoblade Chronicles, and maybe the Dead Rising games.
There's only one Dead Rising game on Wii (Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop) and it's actually just a remake of the first Dead Rising, which was Xbox 360 exclusive. And it's pretty average, by the way.

I used to be a PC-only gamer from 2004 on and maybe would still be up to today if it wasn't for DRM. Early 2010 I found myself so desperately cornered, I saw no other way than to switch to consoles. Besides some rare exceptions like GOG, Humble Bundle (let's pretend the THQ Bundle never existed...), Kickstarter or Rayman Origins, I didn't spend money on PC games since then. Right now I'm pretty busy with Wii and PS3, and sooner or later WiiU. I'd say it's 90% consoles and 10% PC at the moment. But my PC backlog is still huge and someday in the future there will be a shift of powers again, I assume.
I have a NES, SNES, N64, GameCube, and PS2 (which I also use for PS1 games). The NES and SNES haven't been hooked up in awhile, though I still play retro titles on emulators. The others get used occassionally, but the vast majority of my gaming is done on a laptop. I keep thinking I'll buy a Wii or PS3 because they have exclusives I'm interested in, but console games are so much more expensive and it's hard to justify buying a console when I already have so many unplayed games.
Of course, as some games I have strong interest in are console-only, including; the true Ridge Racer series (Unbounded is good, but different), Vanquish, Red Dead Redemption, Mega Man 9 & 10 and some of the Nintendo stuff.
I played (a lot) on Xbox 360 for years, but very little in the last year and almost nothing since February. Now I'm mostly a PC gamer...
I have a PS3, PC & N64. I rarely play games on the N64, but I play a ton on the PS3 (Killzone 3 is amazing).
Sometimes I play PC games.
No.

I used to play on my PSP for about a month or so before it got boring. Then I got a Xbox 360, but I realized that I can't play the games I got in a decade or so when the console breaks and new ones are no longer being made.

Since then, I haven't touched a console. PC gaming or nothing!

Only handhelds - I frequently play games on my 3DS.
In terms of home consoles - I had a PS1, which broke well over a decade ago; I've had nothing since then.
