...then what the hell is the comparison between the Wii and 360? Gameplay vs what...?

You really can't judge the Xbox 360 due to the fact that this poll doesn't have an answer choice of the Xbox 360. And besides, Xbox 360 was made a year ago to let you know but it's still part of the next-gen platforms in it's early release.

The Wii is great, but The PS3 is all around better. I dont see how this remote control style of playing is that big of a hit. idk, I think that I wil stick to the regular style. Also the Wii has a double controller where you attatch it on the bottom of the regular controler, why is that. Makes no sence to have a wireless controller but for some features in other games it requires this wired controller, kind of ruins the experience of the swift arm movements!

All around better?
I guess you never saw the PRICE!~!~
7-7, you have never used the nunchuk, it's pretty obvious you have NEVER even touched the Wii controllers, both the Nunchuk and the Wiimote. They are fine. The Nunchuk is wired to the Wiimote, not the console.

Stop bashing the Wii until you have least tried it..

Yes, I know it is wired to the Wiimote, It still ruins it! Yes The price is jaw dropping but then again, if someone really wants something, $350 wont change their mind! Especially when people buy top tech computers when you can get the couple month old ones for half the price. When I bought my laptop almost a year ago the thing cost me $1500, $2000 with all the added stuff. Now I see it with the double processor thats way better for a little under $1200. The same exact computer I have is only $600 now!

I would get a PS3. And I'm not even think in getting a Wii

Thats how I feel, The PS3 just all around is better!

How in the world does the nunchuck ruin anything? I couldn't imagine playing TP without it!!

What about boxing? Boxing would suck without the nuncuck.


The nuncuck is absolutely sweet and a briliant idea.


Your wrong. The Wii does not require you to move around at all. It responds incredibly well to little movement.

Then it also confuses me on how you rate the Ps3 higher when... Wii takes home 2/3 medals? Not only that but it won the biggest category...fun.


Have yet to see a BSOD of the 360 or Xbox. In fact I have yet to even hear about it until now.


Never heard of that either.


Well the Wiimote and Nunchuck do come with the Wii, but if you want another one... yell at your friend to get his own Wiimote. lol. Although i'd agree that they are a tad expensive.

What is it? $20(US) for a classic controller? Plus thats really only for N64 games I believe(and the sega games that use 1\2 analog stick). You can just turn the wiimote and use it like a NES\SNES controller.


I disagree many games are ported to the 360 aswell as the Ps3. Then both consoles have there own excellent non-ported games that shine from the rest. The 360 has a lot of play choice.



What a suprise? The Wii is dominating in the polls.

You do have to move at times when the sensory bar doesnt pick up the signals which can be annoying. I gave it 2/3 because yes Wii is excellent I do love it but it still nintendo. It doesnt meet the maximum. Thats were xbox and PS3 leave off...


Xbox 360's laser is strong enough to melt the 3 layers of the cd. If you don't know what that is google it or look it in tec magazines.

Friends? What about family members?

How doesn't it meet the maximum? If your talking about individual games then ok because thats completely what you think is fun(An opinion).


I know what it is but I simply never heard of the 360's laser actually doing it to a CD. I mean while the laser may be strong enough to melt it, the question is... does it?


Them too! lol.

I like how the people defending the PS3 are so vehement, but they don't even have good arguments. All they can do is make broad meaningless statements such as "it's better overall." That doesn't really mean anything. Your main defense is that it has better graphics. Newsflash: it doesn't. The 360 can output better graphics because it has more memory. All that blu-ray storage area is utterly useless, and only means that the games will cost more.

How about forming a real argument by mentioning the exclusivity of Final Fantasy or Metal Gear Solid? Those are good reasons to own a PS3. You just have to decide if either of those series make the purchase worth it.

A couple days ago I was playing the Wii at my friends house.


It's rather cool being able to play their sports demo game, especially bowling. I think this definately beats using a standard controller.

Wait.. you NEED an HDCP compliant?

DAMN DRM!

As far as gaming goes, Wii. Entertainment as a whole, as in movies and the like, PS3. My vote goes to Wii though.

When I was playing the demo unit of the Wii, people were standing around me amazed at the wiimote. When it was their turn to play, they were still awed by it. That wasn't even on the most innovated game (merely Excite Truck). The Wiimote is outrageously fun, as even the most anti-video game diehards in my family liked it.



I heard that you could use the gamecube controllers to play the virtual console games. That, however, is just what I heard so it could be incorrect.

Yes, you're correct, you can.

The chart is right here... http://wii.nintendo.com/virtualconsole.jsp

Really, how many people want to get shot and only live some of their lives just to get a PS3?

Wii.
No Brainer.

Yah, but good luck getting a PS3 :/

Does anyone else wonder whly Sony is selling a Blu-Ray player for 1k and a PS3 which can serve as a Blu-Ray player for 600? Does this not confuse anyone else?

Im gonna use my same argument for the other exact same thread of this. I'm going to have the console I buy for atleast 5 years at which point I could careless about the price as long as I'm not going to go into bankruptcy getting it more or less. So the fact the wii costs 250 and the ps3 is 600 is irrelevant to me atleasst, maybe not to you guys though. The PS3 will also save me money anyway when blu-ray takes over anyway.

Alot of you are bringing up supply issues (which are great nonetheless) but I don't think thats really a point too much. I woulnd't go for the wii just because I won't be able to get my hands on a ps3 for the next couple months.

Sony's probably trying to push the market by making it available on the PS3. I wonder if they actually DID learn their lesson from Beta video tapes? Seems their attempts to change the market with their higher quality, yet uncompatable with other players versions of tapes and DVDs never quite catch on. I currently have no plans to invest in a blu-ray player.

Some Blu Ray players can do more than others, I guess, but honestly I wouldn't know as I don't know what both is capable of.
