360 Vs PS3 Vs Wii

[MV75]

UPGRADE UPGRADE UPGRADE

Overpriced games, overpriced accessories, need 1080 32" screen, can't replace components, crashing, freezing up, weeks of turnaround for repairs, obsolete- replace the whole lot, stop playing I want to watch TV.

So yea, you wish you could do component upgrades.

Do I need to go on?

Wii! No contest! The intuitive gameplay and physicality of it is true next gen. I don't care if I can't see 3D dust or snowflakes in every scene, it is about gameplay! Whenever I used to play on PC I always turned the graphics down a bit anyway to get rid of these distractions.

And I still don't get "X" being the accept button on the PS3... What the?

Bought Wii Fit this morning, and had a go just then. Loads of fun.

It surprisingly is. My gf will be using it a lot more than me after she saw how easy it is to use.

Apparently my whole family is overweight...

I think the fit board likes me, it put me a full 3 kg under what I normally am on the bathroom scales. I've got really bad knees, so my centre of gravity keeps shifting.

So far it's telling me that if I lose 3 kg, then I'll have a BMI of 22, instead of the 23.6 or whatever it is now.

Hear! Hear! If graphics were the answer to a good game, then nobody would have played games on the Atari 2600 (and many other original machines). I remember Double Dragon on 2600 and the main characters were made of 5 boxes. Each box was either a hand, foot or head. They were joined with a line.

When I was a lad, we were lucky to have three frames of animation for walking!

Graphics maketh not a game!

On the top of my to-get list!

I grew up with NES and SNES, so I like the games on Wii and DS. Wii has a good selection of must-have games now: Zelda Twilight Princess, Paper Mario, Metroid Prime 3, Mario Galaxy and Mario Kart. I like Wii Fit and Link's Target Practise. Also Smash Bros. Brawl should be good.

My biggest problem with the Wii, is all the games you mentioned there are all made by Nintendo. It seems there are no third party games that are worth mentioning.

They are all also sequels (except for Wii fit and Target practise, which is more of a spin off).

I grew up with NES and SNES as well but preferred the Sega Mega drive. I still have the Sega dreamcast which was a much under rated system, if they had the money power of Sony i think sega would have gone ahead in the system wars but due to poor advertising, over pricing the system and the 2 systems before from sega being relative failures they doomed themselves. I still buy second hand games every now and then for the Dreamcast as it's still one of my favourite systems despite it's age.
