Wii - Still not HD 360 - Kinect, 'nuff said. PS3 - Little support for PSP, aside from that Marcus ad campaign.

Wii-

Inferior online system involving friend codes.

360-

overpriced online business model, mostly known for it's shooter lineup than any other genre. (Seriously the more I hear about Halo or Call of Duty over Lost Odyssey and Forza is just my head about to split open). Kinect.

PS3 -

Lack of cross game chat and proper in game music.

All 3. Whats so wrong with a simple sit down and controller? Ninty gets props for 3DS. Other two get a magor fail for jumping on the motion controlgimmick train.
And nintendo needs to boot Reggie. I dont care to waste an hour of my life watching some guy talk out of his rear about things we dont care about. Yes you have nice sales. Yes the wii is super awesome for everyone(save me whom sold it). But how bout skip that and show games. Cause Skyward Sword looked win.

Wii: No HD support. I mean I don't need ps3/360 graphics, but it would be nice to have the games look a little better on a big tv. The online is pretty lackluster. I hate hate hate friend codes. They are very annoying. 360: Hardware problems. I had two 360s break on me and I refuse to support Microsoft again after they knowingly put out a faulty product that breaks just to be first. Exclusives aren't as diverse as the ps3. PS3: No cross-game chat. Online isn't as solid overall as the 360s. Some games look a little better on the 360.

Wii- SD, not into motion controls being primary (I did enjoy 6axis on some games though) 360- overpriced accessories, charging for online, not enough 1rst party support. PS3- unufied RAM, overcomplicated architecture leading to lesser ports.

I don't think Kinect and Move fail yet, even though they don't seem very promising. Unlike Kinect though, I think Move could have some potential.

Well a negative I have for the PS3 is that the web browser always freezes up on me, and I have to restart the sytem. Does it ever do that to you?

Except fanboys do, Metal Gear Solid 4, Heavy Rain, God of War 3, Uncharted 2 and Killzone 2 along with Killzone 3 will be compared to Crysis graphically, well, all but Killzone 3 has so far.

We should devise a couple polls trying to link PS3 web browser to the YLOD statistics.

Can't tell if you're joking, but I'm pretty sure the web browser doesn't have anything to do w/YLOD. It's a software problem.

Most PS3 exclusives are, no one brings up 360 exclusives and Wii is self explanatory, plus me being here for 4 years should know what's up with these fanboys and I see PS3 exclusives being compared the most.

I don't blame the PS3, I blame the fanboys for bringing those games up.

I've been here awhile too and yeah, some cows think the PS3 can compete with PC, some lems think every new 360 exclusive or semi-exclusive will be the next console graphics king. Before lems would ever think they can compete with PC they'd have to beat PS3.

Yep, at this rate, the 360 can't beat the PS3, which is why they haven't brought up their exclusives against Crysis. PS3 on the other hand, man, it's insane, I remember those huge threads too, and I can't wait until February for them to compare Killzone 3 to Crysis.:D

PS3:

- PS store needs demos, or at least trailers, for all games.

- Needs more co-op games.

- I like developer freedom, but some things I'd like to see made standard, like in-game music, and psn for online (looking at MGS4 here, though this may be required now).

360:

- Hardware, of course.

- Needs more mature software. Not adult, but mature, in themes and stories.

- Online play should be free.

Wii:

- SD resolutions. I don't care what kind of graphics they are, but at 480 i (even p) the image hurts my eyes on a 46" TV. And, how much power could it take to pump up the res a bit on Wii games?

- Motion controls aren't precise enough. Seems the best thing about controllers for the Wii is that you don't have to use the standard one. WTF?

Nintendo well and truly alienated its hardcore fans. Two Marios, Monster Hunter, Zelda, Metroid... There are plenty of good exclusives. The problem with the Wii's power and the friend codes mean that a) online is going to suck forever and b) hardly anyone is going to port games (Battlefield, Modern Warfare, Bayonetta, Crysis 2, Medal of Honor, Need For Speed Hot Pursuit, practically every multiplat game on xbox/ps3) to the Wii. Xbox, while selling well, has actually worsened its reputation quite a lot. People are starting to realize that the lack of Wifi, Chargeable controller (PS3), replaceable HD, online among other things make the Xbox much more expensive. The online play is great though. Exclusives are going to be really thin next gen however. The only reason I would've really considered getting an Xbox, Halo, is going with Bungie. Halo is extremely feature rich. Without it, 360 exclusives are basically Mass Effect (Bioware is developing on PS3 too now, so it's only a matter of time before all their games are multi-plat. They might finish the trilogy on the 360, but after that I doubt you'll see anymore), Fable (waste of potential, they're so short!), Allen Wake and a 3rd person shooter that people buy just for the gore (Gears). Left For Dead will almost definitely come to the Playstation brand at some point with Valve ending its PS3 hate. Playstation really dropped the ball at the start of the gen, I'll admit. But LBP, Demons Souls, Infamous, Uncharted, Killzone 2 (and 3 is looking AWESOME), Socom 4 (looking good too), Motorstorm, GT5 (finally), Twisted Metal, GOW3, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3 (likely) and THE LAST FREAKING GUARDIAN mean that Sony's future is looking bright. If not this gen, the next. What they need to do is make the R2/L2 concave, preferably further down behind the controller, make the controller just a bit bigger, and improve their online play (basically for the next gen, strip the basic free online down to the bare minimum messaging/friends/online play, and then add all the possible features you could want for the premium service (free demos, beta entry, cross game chat, voice messages, video chat, cross game video chat (with PS Eye) would be cool, etc).
