[QUOTE="VladTheImpaler"][QUOTE="ghored654321"]

my brother bought a $500 pcthat includeda MONITER. and he can run battlefield 2 on low at 800x600 at around 40-50 frames. now i d rather play battlefield than anyother game on the wii's roster.

BTW i have a wii

Vandalvideo

I would hope so since that PC costs double the price of a Wii. Since everybody has a TV you don't need to include a in the price of the Wii. Also I bet that is a crap monior.

One more thing my $400 dollar xbox 360 can display 1920x1080 @ 60FPS or 30 depending on the game.

Still one more thing my friends PS3 that was $600 has the sam output as the 360. So what was your point agian.

Thats fine by me, we can just hook the PC up to the TV. Problem solved.

yeah we got S-video, VGA,HDMI,DVI Baby!

Good thing my $500 pc also displays in 1080p on my 42" 1080p Sharp, not to mention it runs at a steady 90fps+...which resulted in my selling my 360 and ps3.

All the latest games, and Bioshock runs more in the 60 area but bigger games like fear and battlefield 2142 are in the 90's and halflife 2 and battlefield 2 are in the 120's. Its called craigslist ;D.

That's cool I was just trying to point out that his thread did not really make sense. Of course something that is $500is going to be better than something that costs $250.That is not exactly breaking news.

I just picked up a Vizio 42" 1080p that was $1200 before my discounts, and who would have thought it is better than my sisters 32" that cost $600.

How do you like your Sharp? That was one of the TV's I was looking at. I just happened to get a smoking deal at Costco and could not pass it up.

Despite it being off topic I LOVE IT ;D. I am a gaming nut so I wanted a tv gauged toward gaming, especially picky pc gaming. It has one of the highest refresh rates along with the fastest response time and highest contrast ratio so it is awesome. 10000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, 4ms response time, 120hz. So I can see up to 120 fps, so its basically a giant awesome monitor, in addition to a fantastic blu-ray player.

Edit: And it is supposed to have new color filter technology, which apparantly on a bad unit causes bad banding but on the good units you get the most vivid colors you could possibly imagine. I stopped using my pc lcd all together because the tv for the first time ever was vastly superior. The new bravia series is nice too though for sure, that was the other tv I was considering.

[QUOTE="TalesofRaGnArOk"]Well lets see here, is the Wii 500$? My sources say no. If it was 500$, could it live up to 360 standards? probablyghored654321

if youv noticed you can do so much more with the pc with a $600 cad pc coud outpreform the 360. with an extra $200 can you can surf the net, shop, play movies, download movies, download music legally, more multimedia, do school work, MAKE SOMETHING OF YOUR LIFE and play game plus much more

He's right about BF2 being better than any game the Wii has in its roster right now. The game's variety is amazing and it's super fun dodging incoming SAMs when you have like5 players in your chopper who's lives you have to save xD

But comparing anything to BF2 is pretty unfair to begin with, I mean, It's BF2.

I'm in the middle of building a pc and it can already out perform a wii easily, and if that half-life only running at 30fps on 360 is true than my pc can out perform a 360 with that game. And this is only for $310, i just bought a crap cpu, cheap ram and using integrated graphics so i can use my pc while i save up for some high end hardware.

Get rid of the intergrated graphics ASAP.
