heres a POS thing about nintendo... its always a step behind...

ps1 disks.. n64.. cartridge..
ps2 and xbox online.... gamecube nope
360 and ps3... work well with my hd tv... wii doesnt even have hd

ok the cartridges allowed for bigger more defineed games, or the n64 came out waaay before the ps1 <-- not too sure on that

ps2 and xbox online.... gamecube nope <--- gamecube does have the capabilities to go online but it sucked too bad

and wii dont need hd-tv to be a good console they could of done hd-tv but it would prob push the cost up 2 much

and for the motiuon sensing thing

i remeber hearing about the tilt controller while sony still had the super boomerang controller but i think that sony lost their innovation there i think that teh new ps3 controllers idea was to be heavy duty ie. if you threw it it would come back

now that would be cool

i just went to the Nintendo Wii site, and it keeps on blowing me away. turns out you can use your Gamecube controller and mem cards. i can't wait to have mine. i'll be pre-ordering as soon as i can!

i hated the boomerang controller. i'm glad they remodeled it!

lol i know i did as well. i was close to wanting a ps3 then the price was announced!!

im so happy when i got mi gamecube i got the biggest mem card available now as soon as i get my wii i have 2 controllers and a fricking huge mem card xD

actually if you want to get technical gamecube did have an online option

Well, here goes:

I think that I'm definatly getting Wii and PS3 to get best of both worlds. Wii looks like most fun, and PS3 looks like most nextgen coolness + features. And I'm one of the few who are actually looking very much forward to the BlueRay player and all the Linux and mediaportal features the PS3 sports. And also the PSP connectivity sounds really promising.

The Wii has all the fun looking 1st party titles and PS3 still have some of my favorite exclusive titles like GT, MGS, Tekken, Devil May Cry, Jak and Daxter, Rachet and Clank and so on. Plus they have the excellent studios like Naughty Dog and Insomniac.. And OMG did you see Heavenly Sword yet??!?? :D

And something Microsoft ofcourse forgot to mention, the nextgen GTA is also coming for PS3 even though they like to make it sound otherwise...

The only thing now that looks nice on 360 is all the legacy arcade stuff, but I actually prefer using my PSP for that so I can take it with me.. And the 360 is kinda left behind already with no build in (as in garanteed support for) harddrive, HD media (yeah, 360 is getting an external HD-DVD drive, but that's pretty lame and probably won't get any game support) or motion sensor control...

So there... :)

When ps3 comes out i'm going straight to the game store and buying an xbox 360 (price will have dropped by then) and later on when the second wave of games come out i'll buy a Wii, and i still wont have spent $600.
Where do they think they can get off charging $600 for a f*****g over priced piece of s**t with a blu-ray drive i don't want yet/if at all, just to try and win a format battle at our expense and sell us blu-ray films that cost 20% more than the already over priced dvd's. Sony you must think we all have stupid tattooed on our foreheads!!!

currently $600 converted to pounds would be £318.19... why is everyone saying this is expensive?

ok... so i know UK will get shafted, having to pay atleast £400 ($754.27)!!
But assuming, for some reason that doesn't happen; it will cost 320 quid!
Does that sound much more than xbox 360?
Xbox 360, which has been out a few months, is currently £280 (amazon.co.uk)...
so ps3 should only be the price of one game more! :p

Yes, i know i'm messing around with numbers... Britain WILL be shafted, with atleast 400 quid... :rolleyes:

lol lucky pom

I remember people saying I was crazy to spend $300 on PS2, so to double that price is scary.
