    I just noticed I haven't touched my PS3 in over 3 weeks
    and I used to play on the Regular.
    Been too busy with all the good games I download on the PB, some
    of which I have not played yet.
    Who else stop playing their systems

    When I first got the playbook I completely stopped using the xbox, but I have had it now for a few months and slowly starting to use my 360 again

    I definitely play my xbox 360 a lot less since the PB. A lot easier to swipe on the PB and play a casual game than boot up the Xbox. Also a lot easier to shell out for a 99 cent game than a $50 game. Only the kinect and the exercise games I got keep me coming back once in a while to the xbox.

    I actually found more joy in my kinect by plugging it into my x10 box and using it as voice controls for home automation and a security camera that takes pictures of faces, as opposed to the game selection lol.

    I haven't played my PS3 in months.. Thats not because of the PB, its just because my kids like playing Kinect games more. I STILL use my PC for gaming and probably split most of my time playing games on the PC and PB.

    I didn't intentionally stop playing my PS3, I actually had to sell it due to some financial issues but I hardly notice its gone because I have a couple of good games on my Playbook

    Uh, not even close...

    None of the games on the PB are anything like what's on the PS3 and I use the PS3 for netflix daily.

    When my kids moved out they took the ps3 and wii with them.
    Had to go out and buy another wii when the new Legend of Zelda came out.
    Only game I ever got into all this years and played & finished them on all platforms.
    Really only play puzzle and hidden object games on PB.

    No. I think the difference is whether playing games, to you, is a hobby or a pastime. If you really enjoy the interactive entertainment of video games, the tiny time-killers on the PlayBook won't hold your attention for long.

    To me its really a hobby not a pastime, but some of these games do consume a lot
    of time. 3 games that I believe I ranked up over 20hrs total are Zombie trailer, Grave Defense, Living Dead Defense.

    Sorry PB, I'm spending more time on my Xbox. Skyrim can't play itself.

    No. Playbook hasn't taken any time from my xbox or ps3.

    Playbook has a bunch of games but they are mostly mindless and you play them for 15 minutes because you want to kill time.

    Not even close to the same kind of experience you get from Skyrim, Mass Effect, Dark Souls, Uncharted etc

    I play on the PlayBook a lot when I travel - Plants vs Zombies, Run in the crowd and Bejeweled2.

    Just finished Kingdoms of Amalur and Mass Effect. Can't imagine playing them on PB. I admire those who can play dead space and modern combat as I just cannot use touch screen buttons. A tablet can replace a console / PC for me only if / when it allows Bluetooth controllers.

    Haven't touched my 360 or Wii in a while. I play my PB on the go, which is the big difference. I'm in transit and have nothing to do, so I play games.

    Don't know if this counts, but I sold my brand-new PS-Vita 3G and 2 games & 16GB memory card two weeks after the purchase because of the PB I just discovered.
    I'm playing a few games on the iMac, but in most of the time, I have the Playbook in my hands.
    Oh, my Xbox 360 has a big layer of dust, even before the PB came out anyway....
