Don't get me wrong or anything, it looks pretty good and a select few of the games look interesting but comon', a T.V. Remote styled controller? thats evil...what happened to the way video games used to be played?
Besides, Playstation3 has the new Sonic game.
Well... I do believe we have a fanboy :/
I don't want to start an arguement, but we always get people on here saying that the Wii is the best because the other two consoles are too expensive, and we also get 360 fans who just say that nothing beats the 360.
Craziac is only doing the same, and at least he is giving reasons for his view.

Inferno... I don't think you know what a fanboy is. A Fanboy is someone that refuses to accept that the system they adore has even the slightest flaw and give stupid/ignorant reasons to why other consoles suck. Another indicator is saying that their chosen system is perfect. Now I do believe Craziac said "Sony is pretty much the best when it comes to electronics and graphics" Now that sounds like a fanboy to me. I'm not saying that he's the only person in this thread that is being a fanboy but he has a fairly fanboy attitude.

OK, yeah, I'll agree with that, I was just pointing out that calling him a fanboy doesn't prove anything really.
Sorry, never mind.

Let's see.
The game selection is going to be poor, at least until Final Fantasy XIII, Kingdom Hearts III, and Metal Gear Solid 4 come out. That of course, will eventually change.
However, the price IS an issue for us middle class people. See, not all of us have rich parents to buy us whatever we want.

Oh my parents don't buy me everything i want. i have something called a "SUMMER JOB" which allows me to make the money i need to make purchases like that.....
Oh and for 2x4b: the only flaws i've heard of the ps3 were that they blow up, which is probably an exageration on account that it was my friend who said that and also happens to be a Microsoft fanboy.
So lets "NOT" get into a big flame war about fanboyism

Oh, and what's that? The 360 has a 30-50% chance of melting within the first two years? What a shame!
Still, for Krisp, there are plenty of good PS3 games around. There's MotorStorm, Resistance, Rainbow Six, Oblivion, and plenty more.
There's also the downloadable games, which you should look into before you come to conclusions. The PS3 has an excellent array of downloadable games, such as flOw, Calling all Cars, WarHawk, and Super Stardust HD. Plus plenty of good demos and trailers!

Same as Rainbow Six.

Clearly not...
The thing is, most of Sony's flagship titles, the games they were depending on to move PS3s, either are no longer Sony-exclusive or have jumped ship to the 360 entirely.

OK, I agree that Oblivion and Rainbow Six aren't PS3 only, but MotorStorm is a great game, it's virtually all I play on. Also, there lots of games coming out, and which are currently available which are awesome. It's just I was only mentioning the ones that I own, because they'd be easier to discuss.

Actually, you can lie about it, but why would anyone want to?
Yeah, I agree, the 360 has got good graphics, but Microsoft themselves have admitted that the PS3 has the potential to have better graphics. Still, that's potential, not realism.

I don't understand why we have to be so zealous about our consoles. Why does one console have to be excellent and the others suck? The whole console war, and argument just does not make any sense to me.
Just because I own a Wii, do I have to pretend my Wii is the greatest thing to grace the earth since donuts? Just because I can enjoy great games like Zelda, Metroid and Resident evil 4 do I have to pretend that Gears of War, Dead or Alive 4 and Resistance: Fall of Man suck? Of course not.
I declare now that I like GAMES. I'm a gaming enthusiast and I like to play GAMES. And I don't care which system you have or I have because each system had/has/will have games that I will enjoy. And because of that I think that the true gaming enthusiasts should stop these petty arguments over which console is better and should just play the games they love.

Very good point. Now get back on that soap box, and make sure everyone agrees with you!

Not everybody has said which system they like and dissed the other ones. As of right now, I want all of the systems because of one game they have. The Xbox 360 has Halo 3, the Playstation 3 will have the new Ratchet and Clank game, and the Wii will have Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I want all these games. Which in turn, means I need all three systems. The Xbox 360 seems like the system I have a greater chance of getting. The PS3 cost too much for my family and I am not having luck finding a Wii. The Xbox 360 cost only $20-$30 (I can't remember) dollars more than the Wii. That is since the price cut. I can find it as well.

I have a Wii & the game play is insane. I love the interaction. The graphics aren't great, but I don't think that was the direction Nintendo intended to go.
I have played a lot on the 360(I want that). The graphics are amazing. I really want one for 2 reasons. The new Naruto RPG & the Force Unleashed come next spring.
I haven't played a PS3 that much, but it looks amazing visually. So far I'm really disappointed that they haven't released a great title to go with the console . I hope they have some huge plans though. I really want one, but can't justify it until a legit game is announced.

A good titled game for the PS3 would be Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction. At least I would think. It is a good series for the Sony family.

The PS3 is currently a little low on games.
But there are also many upcoming much hyped games coming out on the PS3.
The price of the new 40 GB PS3 is $400. (Price of the 360)
Now that the Halo hype is going down, I want to see what Microsoft is gonna pull out of their money filled wallet and stack of broken 360s.
The Wii has a huge lack of 3rd party support.
Sure there are always a few good ones but overall not many.
There is also a Wii shortage.
Here in NY with the release of Super Mario Galaxy, there will be 250 Wiis for sale at the Rockefeller Center with the release.
Wow.
So many Wiis

I prefer the XBox 360 over the Wii; I can't speak for the PS3 though, seeing as i've never played one. The Wii games just seem to... childish. I'll give the Wii an intuitive control system, but it severely lacks in gameplay. Severely. The XBox 360 may not have motion controllers, but it's got the better games. TimeShift, GoW, Halo 3, Oblivion, Overlord, Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, and others.
I just think that between the Wii and XBox 360 the 360 is an overall better system, even though it does melt down.

Is the Xbox 360 really bad for messing up?

I like the Wii bacause it offers a new style of game play with the Remote and Numchuk. Also, it fit into my price budget although the prices for the other two consoles went down slightly.
