The PS3 and Wii are the best choises a gamer could make. I already have a wii (motion controls) and next Christmas I will get a PS3 (Next-gen Graphics).

The Xbox on the other hand, doesn't have motion controls. For me, motion controls are the future. Besides, the PS3 has better graphics than XBOX 360.

So there!XP

You're absolutely right TC. Rumble is last-gen tech, why would we want it in our controllers?

Oh wait.

Because the original Xbox was determined a success, and it adds more money to Microsoft's pockets, and it has good games, and people buy 360's, and people like 360's.....

I'm such a hypocritical bastard. I go from defending the PS3 to defending the 360. :P

I agree, motion controls will make a large impact in future generations of gaming comsoles. 360 is behind on that feature, (PS3 offers a six axis controller at least), and behind on PS3 in graphics. The real reason for it's sucess is superior games thus far, a fact which will dwindle very soon when the highly anticipated games for PS3 come out. Also, the lack of Blue Ray and the upcoming Blue Ray boom makes 360 look to be in a bit of trouble.

Well same reason the PS3 and Wii exist.

Mind you, Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo weren't all about gaming business since the beginning you know.

I thought the Wii felt very...gimmicky... It has a couple of good games but the rest are crap and many of those games could have been done last generation on the gamecube...not to mention the fact that nintendos online policy is completely backwards compared to what gamers want...Nintendo is catering to a non-gamer crowd and its top salers are proof...If the Wii is the future of console gaming than I'll be upgrading my PC a lot more in the future...

As for why the xbox 360 exists? It exists because gamers like it...it has the most games and some of the best franchises in video game history...hell one could have said the same you just said about the xbox 360 to the PS3....Why does it exist? There are plenty of other blu-ray players now selling at 370...and its lack of original titles is horrible....Hell most of its hyped games aren't even out yet or fell well short of their goals...Why does it exist?

Obviously the question posed by the TC is pure stupidity.

Mario is not kiddie!!!!!! Its fun for everyone!!! And its even got a lot of mature games too. Ever heard of no more heroes?????

Halo?? Its kind of hard to aim with the analog stick you know... its better played with the wii pointer. Metroid Prime 3 is a great example.

That and Microsoft knew it would make them money so they gathered a team together baught over Bungie and boom XBOX is a hit.

The real question here TC is what have you got against the XBOX?

The Xbox 360s also have technical problems which are cery well known by their poor buyers: The Red Ring of Death and the fact that the XBOX 360 can sometimes scratch your discs so hard, that it can't even read them.

Ever heard of its past ur bed time kiddo?,ur opinion isnt fact and sadly it never will be,the fact mario gets good sores is also an opinion so even if it fot 100/100 on every site ever creted it still isnt fact,the fact that halo outsells most other games is fact.

For future referance i dislike both Halo and mario

Galaxy is pretty fun, but there are people who don't like Platformers. Also Galaxy is just one game, sure it can beat any 360 game, but when you look at the other games on the system the 360 does better.

All I know is that if you're looking for an adult gaming system or games, the Wii is out of the running. I really don't think a gimmicky motion system makes up for their poor hardware, severly inferior graphics and boring easily beaten games. I loved the nes and snes, but most of the games I loved on that system have since evolved and are on the playstation and xbox. Marketing to kids is a great idea! It will net a lot of money, just like every children's cartoon, but I would rather have a more adult experience. Saying that graphics aren't important is just stupid. Would you enjoy a movie with a great plot if the effects and film quality are like a 1900's silent film? Videogaming is a VISUAL media, so graphics count for a lot! I don't think you can compare the Wii to the PS3 and Xbox 360, it's like comparing an electric Barbie car to a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. Sure a lot of people will by the barbie car, but it isn't the same caliber.

Why does the PS3 exist?

It basically has the same graphics as the 360(very minor diffrences with multiplats and most being better on the 360), but more superior online, more and great variety of games, more AAAEs and a larger install base than the PS3(almost twice) and it has a greater lineup in 08(due to my prefrences), as in: Gears 2, NG 2, Bajo 3, Halo wars, Fable 2 and Alan wake(not to mention all the multiplats). So can anyone answer my questions?

Thats funny, because I laughed at the idea of me getting a 360 over the PS3. The 360 has no exclusives that interest me other than NG2. And if the 360 has the best graphics, then why is Uncharted the current console champ in the graphics department?

...uncharted is the most unoriginal game ever..sure it looks pretty...but it took no risks at all during development..the same thing PS3 fans bash Halo3 for doing

Xbox 360 is more than worthy to exist, its a fantastic platform with an amazing game library that will continue to grow.
