I don't think Nintendo will make a StarFox game for Wii anytime soon. unless its "StarFox Sports" or some kind of "StarFox Fitness" game that uses the Wii balance board. :PNot quite the StarFox announcement I was hoping for...

Technically you could have four player if only a Move controller is needed. You just can't have four Move and four Nunch... "Navigation" controllers.
Move + Navigation controllers can support 4 players if they make a Navigation controller that ties to the Move controller by cable. This is because the PS3 can only support up to 7 wireless devices.[QUOTE="ThePlothole"][QUOTE="nintendo-4life"]D) Wiimote can have 4 players, move cannot.nintendo-4life

That's what i'm saying. Move will never be able to provide a Mario Kart experience. Racing games will better off with a steering wheel or regular gamepad anyways.1) Sony copied Nintendo with analog sticks and rumble. They did not fail there. 2) You can turn PS Move sideways. The glowing sphere may not look any different to the camera, but the Move has other internal acceleromersThe Move seems like it'll fail because of Sony's one dimensional perspective of Nintendo's success with the Wii. The design is pretty terrible too. You cant even turn it sideways.

I know it sounds crazy for a multiplat game to have better graphics on consoles, but for Sims 3, I think this might be the case. Remember, the Sims 3 is targeted towards casual gamers who have little knowledge of computer hardware and try to install Sims 3 on their five-year old laptops. They have no idea whats the difference between a "Geforce" and a "Radeon", they just want to play the Sims on the same crappy laptop they send emails with. This would explain why the Sims 3 has graphics similar to a PC game from 2003.
Now for the HD consoles (PS3 + 360), EA doesn't have to worry about optomising the Sims 3 for crappy laptops. Instead, they have the Cell + RSX for PS3, and Xenos + 3.2ghz tri-core CPU for Xbox 360. This is far superior than the average Sims 3 fan has, so I guess Sims 3 will have better graphics on consoles. Can't wait for screenshot comparisons of Sims 3 for consoles vs PCs :P
Your thoughts?

The console version wont look better simply for th fact tha the PC is already more advanced in terms of hardware. Someone playing Sims 3 on a a 6800 (an old card mind you) would look exactly the same. I mean why are we talking graphics in Sim 3, Has SW really stooped so low as to alking about Sims 3< OMGZORZ console graphics king now. Truth is the PC version and console version will look the same texture wise. The pc will overall look better due to more antialiasing settings than the consoles have.
Do you realise that Sims 3 has a different audience than Crysis? My cousin is a Sims 3 fan. And guess what? She can't even tell the difference RAM memory and hard drive memory. If I told her that a Geforce 6800 with 256mb VRAM can play Sims just fine, she will look at me with a puzzled face. She plays Sims 3 on her crappy LAPTOP, which cannot be upgraded with th graphics card you mentioned.[QUOTE="PandaBear86"][QUOTE="Snugenz"]
Thats a very bad generalization. Sims 3 has pretty good graphics and you need a decent PC to max it out with a smooth playing experience. The consoles could look better but only when compared to vanilla Sims 3 as there's plenty of mods out there to beef up the graphics of the PC version.
Just because its developed so a low end PC can play (at the worst graphics settings and poor performance) doesnt automatically mean a game doesnt have high end configurations and effects.
Some casual gamers don't know what mods are, or even bother searching the Internet for them. You'd be surprised how many PC gamers play vanilla games. In their eyes, the consoles will have better graphicsAnd if i cover my eyes i can make the world dissapear whats your point ?.
The PC version will look better whether you know about mods or not, they're out there and they make the game look better. Even if you dont touch user created mods, Maxis usually include graphical updates in every new expansion pack.
Those graphical updates can also be included on the console versions. I have seen the Sims 3 fully updated with max graphics and I wasn't too impressed with the graphics quality.
