Obviously the Wii doesn't have graphics up on the PS3... and Wii definitely has the worst online system, with friend codes for EACH game. I was thinking the Wii has games up on the PS3 for a while... but that's not true. Bold = Unavailable on the other console.

Wii's top games. Average - 84

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - 95

Warioware: Smooth Moves - 83

Madden NFL 07 - 81

Trauma Center: Second Opinion - 80

The Godfather: Blackhand edition - 78

 

PS3 top games. Average - 86

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - 92

Resistance: Fall of Man - 87

Virtua Fighter 5 - 85

Motorstorm - 84

Fight Night: Round 3 - 84

 

Source: Metacritic - WiiPS3

And the gap between the average score gets much larger when you average in all the game's scores. Note that the difference is very minimal though... but it means that Wii does, in fact, not have the best games, and overall has the worst games of the 3 consoles...

The Wii does have a lower cost, costing half the price of a PS3. But besides that, the Wii doesn't have anything up on the PS3 so far because apparently, Playstation 3 does have the better games of the two, with the Xbox 360 having the best reviewed games overall

The Wii is better because of what it doesn't have - GIANT ENEMY CRABS in battles that actually took place in ancient Japan.

Attack it's weak point for MASSIVE DAMAGE

So a smaller console and rumble = better game system?

I'm sorry, but last I checked, I've never purchased a console because it had rumble and it was smaller. I bought it for the games. (Although I miss rumble T_T)

Price?  I could care less afterall I live in the city that has the highest cost of living in the US so paying high prices (like paying $600 for PS3) isn't new to me.

Size?  Who really cares about this?  Maybe for a handheld it would matter but your just going to lay it on a stand so who cares if its really small and the PS3 is hardly gigantic.

Rumble?  I actually like the no rumble thing, I was not a crazed person about rumble.

I was just pointing out the things the Wii does outrightly better than the PS3 with no argument.  Games is a preference and the functionality of the PS3 is vastly superior to the Wii, so what else am I left to argue about?  All I did was lay it out, short and sweet.

BTW, I mean the differing types of controllers, not the number that can be connected at once.

And how about we toss in the amount of total sales while we're at it so we can appease the sales whores. :wink:

Fight NIght Round 3, Virtua Fighter 5, and The Elder Scrolls IV are third-party games that are unavailable on the WIi... Wii has Madden and Godfather, which are both available for the PS3 as well.

Only good one is Oblivion, and that's a port from the 360 and PC

I don't think you can compare the two. They are not aimed at the same market segment.

well the simple answers would be price and its more cosmentically appealing, much better press too which would all relate to why it sells so well.

 game wise I figure its the advanced technology in the controllers(def above six axix), and the downloadable content(vc is simply great)

also it seems to be securing and gaining exclusives while sony's machine is losing them

 

the  ps3 is more powerful in everyway except control concept I would say, though having blue ray forced on to me is a no no in my book
