They're both great consoles, don't go by SW opinions....Logic here is not what you would expect from smart people......But I say the Wii is a fun console, with great games coming out for it.....PS3 is the future of gaming, with terrific games coming out for it and it's multimedia all the way.....PSHome is going to be good too.

you have a 360 and your looking for a second console?

Get a Wii. Why?

  1. its 250 dollars instead of 600 which means you can buy more games
  2. most PS3 titles are coming to the 360... so Tekken? you can get on your 360. Oblivion? 360. And so many more
  3. The Wii is a really nice complement to the PS3/360 because it has a lot of exclusives that you can not get anywhere else. You get to play insanely high budget titles on your 360 but then turn around a play a bit of online co-op in Trauma Center. It really gives you a nice balance when playing games. You don't get too many FPS's or RPG's etc.

And there you go. A reason why PSWii or Wii60 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> PS360

this says nothing bad about the PS3 and is not bashing it at all fanboys...

Do you like Nintendo's franchise games or Sony's franchise games better? That should be an important deciding factor. If you plan on getting both eventually though, I'd say get PS3 now since you said you can afford. The Wii is still hard to find and it's a lot easier to save up for. Bythe time you get $250 to buy one after getting a PS3, the Wii should be easier to find.

I would get the PS3 cuz there are some games I like that are exclusive for it like Haze and Heavenly Sword...but the only problem i have for the Wii is finding a store that has it in stock longer than a day--no, 5 hours. Every Sunday a store advertises they have it in stock it's gone in a heart beat. I have played the Wii and agree it is addicting...I guess I can wait till the holidays for the Wii.

I'm a Sony fan so I'm going to say PS3, but honestly I just don't like pointing a remote at my screen all the time. I really like a high quality audio/visual experience with my console rather than just pointing something at my TV. PS3 also has motion sensing and it's being much much more implemented with the new games.

PS3 is a cool console, get Warhawk and Resistance :P Though personally I think the Wii is a better compliment to the 360 then the PS3. Of course that goes visa versa too.

The PS3 and 360 line up is so similar that you would have to 'really' like the exclusives on both consoles to spend that kinda cash. Almost all the great games on the PS3 and 360 are available on both. So, I'd say get a wii. It's pretty much 100% exclusives and is really different. By having a Wii and a 360, you will be missing out on a LOT less that if you had a PS3 and a 360. Buying a PS3 to go next to your 360 is like buying another 360 to next to your 360.

Wii.  PS3 and 360 is kinda redundant (PS3 and 360 share a lot of great multiplat games, but the Wii hardly shares any games with either other console)

inmy own humble opnion I would get a Wii. Plus you already have a 360 which has almost all the same games and more than PS3.

But even if you did not have a 360 after Lair PS3 is just not worth it. The only game worth getting is MGS4 and 600+ dollars are not worth for one game. Wii has more games to play than PS3 and its catching up with 360 which has been out for a year. I dont see how you could choose Ps3 with the above statements in mind but do what you want its your money to spend.

That's not true :P There is more to like about the PS3 than MGS4 now that Lair has flopped. Warhawk has turned out awesome, Heavenly Sword still looks decent, Ratchet and Clank is coming out and so is UT 2007. Plus who knows what other games I haven't bothered to look into.

Their is deffinatly not more to play on the wii. Ive played Warhawk for longer than ive played my Wii and ive had it since launch. Plus MGS4 is NOT the only game worth it. Do you people not realise how well Gran Turismos sell? Plus WKS, FFXIII, FFvsXIII, Uncharted,Warhawk, Resistance, Tekken, Haze, Folklore, and more. PS3 is the way to go

I will go with the Wii, and i suggest you buy a Wii, beacause Wii is different form the 360 AND PS3 , not only by its controls(that are really good) but also in the games, because you would play metroid, zelda, Brawl other games that you will miss, and the 360 an ps3 have similar and also games that are for both consoles.

Now im having a tough descicion because i dont know to buy a 360 (wich i will like alot) or wait a little bit to see PS3 growing in all senses.

I own both the PS3 and Wii:

- Here's the thing, I rarely and I mean rarely play my wii... to the point I forget I have one. That being said, I use my ps3 heavily, but wait! Other than the fact warhawk recently came out and I'm playing the crap outta that, before warhawk, my ps3 was nothing more than an uber ps2 (my ps2 is about dead, and thankfully the ps3 has awesome Backwards compatiblity) so I was playing PES 2007 mostly on the ps3.

Unless your ps2 is dying, I see no point in 'upgrading' at the moment, If i were you i would just save the cash. on the other hand you said that your parents would like the wii... I probably can guarantee you that your parents will play the crap outta wii sports if you get the wii. shoot you might wanna get one for THEM for this holiday season....

Not a Sermon.. .Just a thought.

Half of those are false and even if they are true there is more on Wii still and just because you personally play one game more just shows your a fanboy. Most people play wii more look at sales and feedback.

Its all in Wii's favor so I dont know why you are even talking cause Wii has MP3, SMG, SSBB, No More heroes, MoH 2, Dragon Blade: Wrath of Fire, Brothers in Arms Double Time, Rockstar's Table tennis, Manhunt 2, Battalion Wars 2, DBZ 3, RE UC, Soulcaliber Legends, Rygar, Mario Kart Wii, and sadness.

well the ps3 is the first console i got as soon as it was released and it was for b/c since my ps2 was busted and hoping it could already upscale ps1/ps2 games (which they didn't, but thankfully do now) cause my old tv broke so i got an hdtv and ps1/ps2 games looked like crap, at least now they're playable for me, and i get ps3 games as a bonus:P in all honesty though, i don't think there are any ps3 games that warrant getting one right now, but that's the same for the wii imo.

If you have a 360, get a Wii. You'll get all of the PS3's best games this year, plus it has some exlusives coming this year that are actually worth buying, as well as a few worth renting at least.

PS3...well, it depends on how blinded GS is by Heavenly Sword's graphics as to how high they score that one. Other than that, you have Uncharted and Ratchet, which look like solid AA titles, and everything else will most likely be better on the 360.

Haze, White Knight Story, Folklore, Ratchet and Clank, Gran Turismo, Uncharted so get a PS3.

If you want to keep waiting and waiting and waiting for something, Anything! to play on the wii then get a wii, unless you really want a dust collector?

So far it looks like its get a PS3 to PLAY games.

It doesn't really matter either way as both systems still have a lot to show ... but with Metroid, Twilight Princess, Paper Mario, the Wii is doing great. :) Either way, all three systems are definitely worth looking into ... and who knows, maybe PS3 will have ANOTHER price drop before you get it! :P

PS3 is very similar to Xbox360 (hardware and games), I'd suggest that you buy the Wii.

Pick the PS3 only if you don't like the wii controls.

If I knew a year ago what I know now I would have got a PS3 instead given the choice, but I got cash flow problems and will be picking up a 360 first myself. Finally I'll get my own piece of next gen pie.
