Interesting, but I'm confused at what the point is in grading consoles based on anything but their games.

But not higher than the DS Lite and the DS only really began to pull away from the PSP with the DS Lite's release.

If you're referring to the Wii Remote, I don't think you need to worry thanks to Nyko's charge station. Thanks for your concern though.

CNET is an ELECTRONICS review site.

WHY WOULD THEY JUDGE BASED ON ANYTHING BUT SYSTEM COST AND PERFORMANCE?? (caps)

Take of the goggles folks. They review based on the system hardware and interface.

 

So of course the PSP and PS3 would rate very high... those systems are PACKED with features compare to their competition.

If you want to base your purchase on games and NOT hardware, just stay on this site.

But seriously, as far as system vs system is concerned, you are fooling yourself to think that Wii or 360 (or DS) are better than the PS3 (or PSP) hardware wise.

They're rating the consoles based on what they have. I could rate Plutonium as a fuel source better than gasoline, but that doesn't mean people are going to shell out millions when gas is only $2.50 a gallon.

Knowing CNET it was probably blu-ray that gave ps3 a higher score.

No no... it is "you go girl!"....never mind that fact that term doesn't apply! :P 

If I were to rate by games... the XB2 would be in the lead for me... the Wii games haven't warmed up to me yet. But once the big guns for the PS3 come out, that can easily change.

Eh, either way... online for consoles doesn't concern me... that is my PC's territory. No system apart from PSP did I ever really go online with. Due to it's portability is the only reason. Live hasn't wowed me, and I only took 2 games online semi-seriously anyway. Live just wasn't worth the money.

I'm so confused as to why so few people have heard of rechargeable AA batteries. The fact that the batteries are a standard AA size simply means that I don't have to buy them from the console manufacturer at an inflated price.

I must ask, how do you rate a console exactly? Is it based on the number of exclusives, and games on it? Multimedia functionality? Interface and control input? Power? I don't understand them, but oh well...

Interesting...but what's the point of grading a console? Shouldn't they be grading games? Ah well, I guess CNET doesn't like the Wii like everyone else does.
