Wii is a core gaming device while PS3 is a broader entertainment solution says Sony

14 CommentsSony's general manager for Australia and New Zealand has had enough of the negative PS3 press: "The Wii-type functionality is more just a sub-element of what the PlayStation 3 offers," he told the Sydney Morning Herald.

"Wii is a core gaming device. It's a more fun, intuitive sort of product to pick up, where the PS3 is a broader entertainment solution; so you can have your fun, enjoyable gaming ... but then you have a whole suite of other applications ... such as Blu-ray media playback, the ability to access your music, access your photos and the interoperability with the PSP", he added.

Wii launches across Europe this Friday.

Translation: "Why should gamers be so concerned with great gameplay? Sure, the ps3 does games, but those are just a sub-element of its greater functions. Blu-ray is important; but the ps3 will also play some games too." -end translation

Hmmmm he uses the words "more fun" when comparing wii with ps3, cant argue there lol

So, why pay oh say 1500 dollars for Blu Ray, which costs more than the DVD functions and cost.

So what f**king music artist, movie distributer, will fill 25 to 50 GIGABYTES of space!?

I'll tell you. No. Way. In. Hell.

Cheers to wasting money!

i think i will buy a standalone blu-ray player in a few years
