1  Non-MegaMan / Non-MegaMan Games / Console Wars on: 17 December 2007, 10:04:26
In this thread I would like whoever posts to either put their opinion on each system, who you think is winning, who you think will win in then end, and what each system's pros and cons are, or any news you hear from the media on price changes, sale popularity, fanbase, or anything generally to do with the console war.

My personal thoughts: Currently I see the Xbox and the Wii are probably tied, the PS3 is on it's way up with these recent price drops and the general usability of the system and it's features. I've used each and I own a PS3, mostly because I am a sony fan.

The Xbox360 is a nice system, first one to come out, they've had a head start on sales and games for the system. I've never liked the feel of the Xbox controller and the fact that they are kind of heavy and take betteries is a little annoying. They fixed that when they started selling rechargable battery packs, but thats still more money out of your pocket. The greatest thing about this system is the game selection. Most people would say it's the xbox live portion, however you have to pay for that subscribtion when the other two systems allow you to get on the internet for free.

The Wii is well um, look at the name. I was all excited about this system when it was called the revolution, which it is a revolution in gaming with the Wii mote and the nunchuck, but as soon as i heard Wii I decided I didn't like it. Then I actually played it. It's a little fun yes, but game selection is horrible. The fact that you HAVE to use Wifi to connect to the internet means that certain people have to go out and buy wireless routers. The remote is not that great and the nunchuck kinda feels strange to use.

The Playstation 3 has only one fault that I have noticed. That one fault is the lack of games. Which is slowly but surely being fixed. They've come out with a few great games. Even though some of them are multiconsole games, they are soo much better on the PS3. The PS3 has the best controller, this controller hasn't been changed much since the origonal Playstation. They added the joysticks mid way through the PSX Erra, then the controller became a little more touch sensative with the PS2, but the shape stayed the same. Now we have the PS3 controller with the six-axis tilt system. This system makes some games a little more interactive and gives the feel of have to actually turn the controller to affect the game. This was very effective in heavanly sword. The system setup itself is much like that of the PSP. The online portion is free and you can either set it up Wifi or hardwire. The wireless controller is light comfortable and rechargable by plugging it into the systems USB port. The recent price drops allow for a much larger crowd to afford them. The Blue-ray DVD player makes it handy for those HD lovers out there and the backwards compatibility even though not every system has it, makes it so you don't have to keep your old systems. I have the cheaper PS3 because I have lower income. This version has only 2 USB ports, and you cannot play PS2 games on it. However even with that said, you can play PS1 games and PS3 games along with any of the games that you download off the Playstion online store. Some games you can even transfer to your PSP. You can surf the web, you can Play Blueray, you can use backwards compatibility to play your older games, you can even set up your PS3 as a wireless media server that you can access via the internet from anywhere you can get Wifi with you PSP.

You've heard my Opinion, now I want to hear yours.
