Suspended much?

The PS3 has potential, there I said it.

To be honest, if you want to pick a console, look at all the games being exclusives and multi-platforms . Make a list and decided which console has the most games you want, then you will know which console to buy. Additionally, if money is an issue then cancel out the console which you can't afford. If you are care about graphics, then cancel out the console which doesn't appeal to you in the graphics section.
Overall, it is all about personal preference people will say they like a certain console for a certain reason and others will say the same for another console, it should be you who decides whats good for you and what isn't.zsc4

i didnt want to know what console to buy but which is better.

You can't have a serious debate without a serious topic. Since the original sucks We shall use this one.

I am interested in your opinions

Sigh...

PS3: best hardware, in terms of features (media center use), bluray player, guaranteed HDD, most reliable, standard HDMI, etc, etc

Xbox 360: best current game library, best online, biggest user base, less expensive than PS3, etc, etc...

Wii: Cheap, best party game system, easy-to-use controls, girls like to play it so you won't be labeled an outcast by having one.

The Xbox360

The game library and Xbox Live are great. Good graphics, a comfortable controller, and becomes a media center if you have the right windows XP like I do. The only real problem is the hardware. It's faulty, plain and simple. And the 2008 line-up is still blurry.

The Wii

It's new, it's cheap, moms love it, chicks dig it. Problem is that the graphics are far behind the rest and the controls don't have much lasting appeal for me. VC is nice but kind of expensive for what you're getting Current library...well, it blows IMO. And the future doesn't hold much for me, either

The PS3

Powerhouse, media center, top of the line, reliable hardware, great graphics, backwards compatibility for all those fun PS2 games. Problem? Most expensive. Can't really get around that. The current library is just okay, but the future seems quite bright what with the 2008 lineup and PSN taking off.

Pros

Wii - Controls are fun, great party system, fun for the whole family, great games coming out soon, cheap, good hardware, selling well so we can expect more games.

360 -Currently the best game library, super online, Great graphics

PS3 - Great graphics, good hardware, free online, great games comint out soon.

Cons

Wii - Not so great graphics, Currently not the best game library.

360 - Unreliable hardware, loud hardware, relitivly expensive, expensive games, currently not selling well, have to pay for online.

PS3 - Not selling well at all, expensive, expensive games, currently not a very good game library.

I think people need to clarify what they mean when calling each console cheap/ expensive:

IMO PS3 is great value if you want a games console & a blu-ray player, but expensive for a games console. 360 is great value if you want a games console with awesome graphics. The Wii is cheap, but poor value when compared to the other two.

For me personally gaming is just a fun hobby. I would never miss a mortgage payment or not pay a bill to play a video game. 400 and or 600 dollars respectivly is a lot of money to feed a fun hobby. As is 60 dollars for each game.

To be honest, if you want to pick a console, look at all the games being exclusives and multi-platforms . Make a list and decided which console has the most games you want, then you will know which console to buy. Additionally, if money is an issue then cancel out the console which you can't afford.

Reading between the lines I think you might be pulling toward the 360 lol

Well this isn't debate, it's people making lists. Just look at previous posts.

If we were going to keep the general topic but turn it into debate, we would say: "Debate which system has the best features for the money you pay". Then people would reply back and forth and respond and debate.

Xbox360-The Xbox 360 Delivers amazing Online Created Perfectly with the game with an amazing selection of games for it the 360 is worth the money for the online play and xbox live is worth the money as well

WII-The Wii can take any crappy game and make it amazing with the innovative controls that may not seem much and its not that much once the wii gets an awesome selection of games that work well with the controls and a stable online serice the wii will be on top of the world its defitally worth it to have one of these

PS3-Though I think Similar To The Xbox360 The PS3 delivers some amazing titles that are coming out soon and i want them all which makes it worth it to havea ps3

From a PC Gamer's point of view, that also owns a 360/PS3/Wii, here are my thoughts...

I find the games on Wii to be the most refreshing, than the PS3, and finally the 360 since most games are on PC as well. Price varies, but I personally wouldn't factor that in, as gaming is expensive over the years, whether it's console or PC gaming.

While the Wii is still begging for more games, by next year there should be a flood of games from developers trying to cash in on the popularity, which looks to be the lead console by year's end for sure. It offers the best gaming experience for a gamer like myself, as the games differ greatly from my pc games. I love the control scheme, as it's the closest any console has come to feeling like a mouse, as the wii mote works great. I'm sure many games will come in the future that really utilize the wiimote and seperate itself from the other two consoles. Metroid, Smash Brothers, and Mario Galaxy are worth keeping an eye out for.

The 360 offers an easy plug and play experience online. While I don't find many 360 games appealing, I do like it's arcade that MS offers, which has an excellent choice of games to play ranging from Doom to UNO. It isn't the best built console, but MS has offered a 3 year warranty that should pacify any concerns. If you're into sci-fi games, keep an eye out for Mass Effect as it looks great and is being made by Bioware, the makers of Baldur's Gate and Knights of the Old Republic. Halo is also the system's flagshig game, but as a PC Gamer, Halo is nothing special to me, and I would recommend games like Half Life 2 over it anyday of the wee, which is coming to 360 in October.

The PS3 is a well built console, and I find myself using the blu-ray player more than anything, and more than using any of the three consoles combined actually. The PS3 is lacking a bit in the online offerings and games, but it is getting the new Home service which will hopefully turn it around. If it doesn't, oh well, I just want the exclusive games for it anyway. Also, it doesn't have an "arcade" feature like the 360, but it does offer great games every so often including PS1 titles. One of the biggest pluses is the backward compatibility with the PS2, which gives it an amazing library of games to play. Some games to keep an eye out for are Heavenly Sword, Killzone 2, Metal Gear Solid 4, and Uncharted.

A debate requires more then one person with opposing opinions discussing their point of view in a manner where each maintains respect for the others point of view.

This is just a thread where people will list a good thing about each console and thats it, no debate, just a check list.

1. Selection, graphics

2. Controls, Virtual Console, Most promising library

3. Graphics

Right now the 360 is clearly the superior all around console, but by 08 I'm going to haveto say the Wii since developers are actually taking it serious now, which means even more good games later.
