Re: 360, Wii, or PS3
This E3 kind of changed my mind a bit on the PS3. I'm not really a playstation nut, but I was definitely interested in where the PS3 was going after last years E3. But after the price annoucements (500 and 600 dollars... ouch!) and the addition that the 500 dollar one doesn't come with Wi-Fi, HDMI, and the controllers don't have rumble, I'm a bit disapointed, especially after Sony made all these claims last year.
I already have an Xbox 360, so at this point, I see no reason to spend another 800+ (System + Games + Controllers) on something that will provide a pretty similar experience. Sure, the PS3 has the 6 degrees of freedom, but apparently the Warhawk developer, the only one with a game capable of using the motion sensors, claims they were only given the tech a few weeks ago, finishing up the code a few days before the show... not a good sign. Yes, the games were impressive looking, but quite a few of those games are also coming out on the Xbox 360 as well. (Assassain's Creed, Rainbow Six: Vegas, Unreal Tournement 2007...) Overall, I would have to say that Sony's showing was a bit of a disappointment Nintendo easily took the show this year, with the showing of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda: Twilight Princess, ect. The controller looks like it's going to be awesome with a bit of tweaking, as some report that it is a little over sensitive. With a little bit of work, that can be fixed. Microsoft did a good job this year, showing Live Anywhere, which connects Vista games, 360 games, and cellphone games, allowing you to take your profile anywhere and play people over different platforms. Gears of War looks like it will be the next blockbuster title, with other big titles like Fable 2, Forza 2, GTA IV, and most of all Halo 3 annouced or shown for the system. It looks like it will be Gears of War holding 360 owners off during the holidays while the wait builds up of whenever Halo 3 comes out. There were also a whole bunch of add ons shown, such as a racing wheel, wireless usb port for using wireless 360 components for a computer (Being able to use the wireless controller for the PC), the 360 camera, the HD-DVD drive (for movies only for now, connects through USB, seems to be standard HD-DVD computer drive in a 360 themed case), and for the technology nuts (which should be all of you) HDMI cables for crazy High Definition goodness. It's going to be a fun holiday season this year. Sorry for the huge post and sounding a bit like an analyst. That's what happens when you check at least three different videogame sites for up to the minute news about everything going on at E3 for the last week and a half... basically I have too much time. |

Re: 360, Wii, or PS3
the only reason why i would get an xbox360 is for oblivion and call of duty. i don't like halo so i wouldn't worry about that. haha. i will probably get the new Nintendo system. i like Nintendo, especially because they had the rights to resident evil, and yes i know that re4 came out on ps2, i have it, but i liked the controls for it on the gc. lets just put it this way, xbox360-adults ps3-older teens and wii-the younger crowd. those are the targets for it. the wii will have the games that are more kid oriented, except the re series haha, ps3 will have more of the teen oriented games, and xbox 360 will have the games that the younger kids shouldn't play or wont like playing. those are my $0.02

Re: 360, Wii, or PS3
I am a really huge sony fan. but sadly they lost me on the PS3 for many reasons; like 1.) Whats with the controlr....how stupid. 2.) the price is insane. i mean 500+ just for the darn body. 3.) ..stupid controlr... i think i would have to say the xbox 360 because i mean it IS $200.00 cheaper and a poor person like me needs that deal. plus i liked halo 1. im the pistol kinda guy and i wanna see and play 3 because i have bets i needa win
I also love nentendo, so i think i will get that to. what the heck, snake. from kasumi is in a nentendo game... whats is the world comeing to these days? ~Doug EDIT/ AND I love/d fable ![]() |

Re: 360, Wii, or PS3
When I get my Wii....I'm gonna go...WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
I think Wii and PS3 will be tied in ability and purchase strength. Wii made a better hit to many people, I think Nintendo has returned. |

Re: 360, Wii, or PS3
Anyone see the connection of Blue Ray vrs HD DVD to Beta-Max vrs VHS?
Beta-Max held more data, was more expensive and came out a little later. VHS held less data, less expensive, came out first. Hmm BlueRay holds more data, more expensive, comes out later HD DVD less data, less expensive (atm), out now/soon. Sony has lost this battle once before and for the same reasons. VIVA LA REVOLUTION! (WII) VIVA LA 360! |

Re: 360, Wii, or PS3
I'm gonna buy a 360 hopefully after the PS3/Wii release. I'm expect a price cut to be more competitive with the new systems (price cuts seem to happen when something new is released).
