And if the Sixaxis is so wonderful, please show me one game out right now that uses it in any meaningful way at all. I'll wait.

Are you serious? Any flight sim and battle games like Lair will feel at home with the sixaxis controller. And for shooters, you can use it to look behind covers and doors ala the PS3 version of the new Medal of Honor. Thanks for waiting

Not at all correct. The PS3 may be the superior console but it is tricky to develop for. They can optimize much faster on the 360 version than the PS3 version.Wasdie

Dammit, why must you bring reason and logic into this argument.

I feel ya, Mr. OP. The American market is flooded with FPS. To those suggesting him/her to not play them, well it's more of a plea for game makers to dive into other areas and refine other genres. We are trying to play other games, but if developers are too focused on making FPS, we won't have much of a list of those other games to choose from.

First as we all know, the PS3 is more powerful and offers more functionality (sixaxis) than the XBOX 360. As such, it makes sense that they focus on the XBOX 360 version first. By releasing the game on an inferior system (XBOX 360) first, it gives the developers more room to improve upon it (visuals, AI, functionality) when they release it again on the more powerful system (PS3). So for example, Company A makes a really cool, fun game with expansive environments for the 360. It debuts with crictical acclaim and commercial success. Now when they tweak the game for the PS3, they can work on the expansive environments even further utilizing the Blu Ray's superior content capacity. So when its released for the PS3, it will make the company look even better since they're able to improve upon an already quality title.

Now imagine if said company were to release the PS3 version first. When they go on to work on the inferior system, XBOX360, there would be no room for improvement, but instead would need to waterdown the game to work within the limitation of the XBOX 360. That wouldn't look too good in front of critics and gamers. Likewise, this works the same for ports. You wanna port from the inferior system to the more powerful, not the other way around.

So yeah, there you have it. The real reason why most demos of multiplatform games at E3 were shown with the XBOX 360 version!

The Wii is like the non-epic flying mount in World of Warcraft.  It's not faster than the epic land mount, but it opens up new possibilities with air travel that you can't do on land.  You can be more flexible.  Ok, if you did not understand what I just said, go buy a copy of WoW, level to 70 and earn 1000 gold.

Ok you guys are seriously over analyzing the OP's question.. SERIOUSLY.   It's simple really.  Imagine that all three consoles had the same specs and technical capabilties that they have now.  Now imagine that each of these consoles costs the same amount of money.   So here price is not a factor. Now decide which console would sell the most in this situation and which you would like to have if you were to choose one. It's a hypothetical situation, so don't argue that it doesn't make sense. 

 I would say that Sony brand and technical superiority will make the PS3 prevail in this situation.  It seems like the biggest reason why people are not buying the PS3 is the price.  Yes, its game library is lacking, but we know that the games will come eventually.  Anecdotely (is that a word?), I've always read on forums and heard from friends that people would buy the PS3 if it were priced competitively in the XBOX 360 range.  So yeah, PS3 would come on top.

[QUOTE="Master_Ryu"]Heh, it's really the way to go. Even if you don't like idea of getting jumped out of nowhere in the forest, the WOW PVP realms are so tame (and lame) that enemy players would rather pass by you and hurry to their next dungeon than wasting time on fighting real people. Heh.brianpoetzel

unless they're bored :) Then YOU are they're next "dungeon".

heh, no if they're bored, they go participate in make-believe pvp called battlegrounds.

[QUOTE="smokeydabear076"][QUOTE="Master_Ryu"]

Quick question...

On normal realms (so not PvP) can you still organise raids against other people, or is that PvP realm only?

MrFlibble-

it's pretty much impractical. In the open world, your PVP flag has to be on for someone to be able to attack you. You can choose to turn it on or not. So basically if your enemies are not flagged for PVP, you can't attack and thus can't raid against them. But it does happen in PVE realms (very rarely and mostly in the past) that people intentionally become pvp flagged for the fun of it when a large enemy group invades their territory. Nevertheless, you can always participate in battlegrounds, which are instanced levels in which you can fight other people (from groups of 10 to 40) to meet certain objects. However, it's completely boring.

When people raid on normal servers everyone fights, they go flaged and it takes like 5 mins to get unflaged so you cant just start a fight and turn your flag off.

i never said you can turn flags on and off instantly. I just said you can choose to turn it on in the beginning. And that 5 minute timer is not that big of a deal. People can just go rez their corpse and hide in a house or underwater for five minutes and bam, it's off.
