DLSS Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 wii <-> ps3 comparison ok itsa add but its pretty acurate :P *click here* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 The Wii and the PS3 are currently in comparable. One is a games console, the other could easily be one sixteenth of a super computer as well as having game console functionality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renegadecanuck Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Funny thing about these haters is that once their arms get sore form using the Wiimote, or they throw it thorught he TV by accident, the PS3 wont look so bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renegadecanuck Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I have so many probelms with this that I don't know where to start. First of all, you can't tell me that a PS3 game will look ugly compared to a Wii game. Second, WWII games are better than MarioCart type games. Third, are they saying the Wii is all style no substance. And the lsit goes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari6502 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 When I get a Wii, I'm definitly smacking it's ass. :) PS: I had to change the wording of that twice as too not sound more perverted than it already does. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second, WWII games are better than MarioCart type games. Third, are they saying the Wii is all style no substance. And the lsit goes on. This is pure opinion. For example, Nintendo has never let me down as a game developer. And, the main reasons I fell in love with Nintendo is based on Mario Kart and Super Smash Brothers. I have owned all the consoles at one time or another except the DS which Im thinking about getting before Christmas. Why? Wifi Doom and Mario Kart... I love FPS games, however, you need a break to justify that love. Mario Kart was done very well and is really fun to play with a group of friends. All in all, when it comes down to it, it's about how fun the game is to play, not the console it's being played on. That and I dont favour this whole WWII trend. I like more of a scifi feel (Aka, Quake, HLDM, Doom, Duke-Nukem). At the moment, in my opinion, I dont see a reason to get a PS3. And I felt this way about the 360 until Gears of War came out.

anyedie Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 my thoughts: when a game console is at $300 that is expected when a game console is at $400 it just may be worth it. when a game console is at $500 I start re thinking if its worth it or not. when a game console is at $600 its not worth it.

Guest ABC Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 how much is a ps3 in NA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudobreed Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Im pretty sure the cost was set at this price considering it's one of the first generation of HD DVD players. So, maybe in the long run the PS3 will be worth it. Especially when they start making games that have huge HD quality textures and content that will take up 50gigs. Now lets all just hope that Bluray doesnt die like Betamax did back in the day vs VHS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeoneE1se Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 ZOMGWTFBBQ!!! HDDVD IS SO MUCH BETTERER THEN BLUERAY!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renegadecanuck Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Look at it from the perspective, they you're also buying Bluray, and the PS3 has HDCP compliant connections of both models, while neither Xbox 360's have HDCP or HDDVD, and the HDDVD addon wont have HDCP compliant connections. I feel it's worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudobreed Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Yeah, however, do you even have the content to even use that HD hardware. It's just like when Comcast came out with HD channels, 8 of them in all and charged an extra $30 a month for these 8 channels which were nothing but local channels, espn and a HD demo channel that played random shows. People rushed out to get HD converters and HD TV's to watch what they have been watching perfectly fine in digital for years. But they had to be the first person on the block that could watch the football game in HD. Dont get me wrong, you can tell the difference between the two, however, I personally can not justify the price. So, that being said. The PS3 will be worth it in the long run. Do you really want to pay $600+ now or wait until Metal Gear Solid comes out next year and the PS3 could drop $50-$100. Even with out a price drop, there should be plenty of content by then to justify a Bluray player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoR_Wraith Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Imagine the price drop of the PS3 is HD-DVD wins over bluray... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
