I'm sorry... but what would you consider "true innovation?"

The PS3?! All it is is a PS2 with better graphics, wireless controller and a bluray player...


Okay, by your logic the "wii" is nothing more than one and a half gamecubes duct taped together in a small shiny white supremacist box. The only difference is that it has wireless wiinis controllers which sense motion when you jerk them.

The PS3 is a gaming console and home multimedia platform. The "wii" has nothing but game capability for $149 less than a basic PS3 which has ten times the amount of features. With PS Home coming out in beta this month (releasing fall 08) plus the major titles coming out this year, you're going to see a lot less demand for the "wii" and a lot more attention focused on the PS3. Calling a PS3 an upgraded PS2 is accurate in the sense that Vista is a newer version of XP and MacOS Leopard is simply a new version of OSX. There's more to it than that.

Seriously, if you don't consider Wii to have the best innovation of all the consoles, you need to check your definition on innovation.


It's not that innovative. The wireless motion sensing is all it has going for it. Otherwise its price versus features is a gigantic ripoff.

As for quality... I think Wii also shines there too. Depending on what you mean by quality, however. If you mean physical quality, than the Wii wins in that area. That thing is basically indestructible! If you dropped a PS3 or a 360 on a hard surface from a reasonable hight, I would be surprised if it didn't receive a dent or if one feature or component stopped working. However it probably wouldn't even leave a mark on the Wii. Ever watch those "Smash my <insert console name>" videos?


Why would you put an expensive console up in a place where it would fall over easily? That's stupid as hell.

If you're talking about software quality, it really depends on who you are talking about. The Wii's OS or games? Games from Nintendo somehow manage to take Wii's low processing power to make games that look like they shouldn't be able to run on the Wii (Mario Galaxy, SSBB, ect). As for the interface and OS, it isn't the greatest, but I feel it falls on par with both the 360 and PS3. (360 winning in options, PS3 winning in visuals, Wii winning in ease of use and innovativeness.)


Wii games are mostly first party junk from Nintendo that's been recycled constantly over the past 10 years. I could play Mario on GC and get the same experience and feel that the "wii" gives.

Quote:

Finally if you are talking about quality in hard ware, than I wont deny that it lacks in graphics and processing power... but seriously, because of this reason games (good games) are forced to maximize their potential on the console. (If they don't optimize all of the Wii's capabilities, than the game will probably fail..)


What major company are you going to see creating games for an obsolete system in the next year or two? What profits will be made from a game for a console that's already showing its age?


Quote:

Also, there is backwards compatibility. Wii is compatible with most GameCube games, right out of the box, and has the ability to download even older console games. The 360 is backwards compatible with many of the Xbox's games.. but not all.. and it requires a hard drive. The PS3, from what I understand, is not very good with backwards compatibility. I know it does have backwards compatibility.. but as of what I know, it isn't very good.


Why the fuck would I want BC when I already own a PS2, a GC, a SNES, a NES, etc... I already have the consoles so I don't really care about BC.


Quote:

PS3 - Best graphics
360 - Best multiplayer, support, and has most games.
Wii - Best innovation, best gameplay experiance, lots of "player choice"


You really, really need to try out a PS3's lineup of games. Having a shit-powered system like the "wii" doesn't mean that all of its games are magically made better to play. Go try High Velocity Bowling, fl0w, Warhawk, etc and then tell me that those games aren't fun.
