I had a Steam account that got wasted due to a glitch since I wanted to play my game without having the disc in the drive.

These days after trying and trying to get my account back with zero results I am upset at Steam and Valve.

These days I think any game from either Valve or Steam are in some elses words "a total waste of time" and I refuse to buy them.

I am just wondering who else has had either Steam or Valve rip them off since these days any game from that developer is an instant NO sale for me in favor of other games.

The problem for the wii fanboys is that they were promised performance just as good by calling the wii a next gen by the media. As Nintendo dodged the bullet and got deniability by leting the media be the catspaw(media wii hype) in this so when Nintendo Loyalists purchased the wii they expected just as good performance as the rest of the options.(360 or PS3).

Now reality hits and its time to drop those rose colored glasses to discover that the wii is unable to perform at the same levels as the rest of the players and its really ticking off the wii fanboys that hardware limitations as no hard drive, lower memory and lack of features like no dolby digital sound and no High Definition mean that the wii is the lower performer with gimped games, third party shovelware and abandonment of the usual casual gamer and hardcore gamers in favor of the non gamers that are now called casuals by the media like soccer moms and retirees...........

Even though its obvious who is right about this.

i am gonna put all the chips on the table so all the graphic whores can go back to drooling about polygon counts.

I am aware that Wii is lacking graphical power and it is a problem sometimes. BUT most of the time I am playing games that are just as fun or even more fun. its also great to be part of an evolution. Motion sensing will be part of every major platform one day and as always Nintendo is trailblazing for us.

Now graphic whores I have been perfectly honest. I admited that Wii lacks graphical power at times. But if you cant admit that PS3 and xbox 360 are oudated in gameplay than your lost even more than you were a couple minutes ago. Whether you like it or not, dual analog is becoming obsolete in FPS, Fighters, soon to be rpgs Strategy games and more.

All consoles lack things but because were fans of specific consoles we forget that these faults are right in our faces.

Now to conclude, if gameplay is more important than graphics then that is one of the mai n reason why I like Wii much more. It focuses on the very reason why games are fun.

Now admit it or lose even more....

Hey I asked you a question and its time to stop dodging the issue:

I asked you that why do you prefer a last gen sound format as in prologic since a this gen sound format like Dolby Digital is superior.

Now please admit that Dolby Digital is far and above what poor pro-logic can do.

AI is left more int he hands of the devs then in the hardware and I havent seen much of a difference esp when games like Halo3 have very bad ai. SO no once again it is still a next gen console stop thinking purely froma visual stanpoint because the physics and ai seem to be fine.

The Wii if it were capable of movie playback:

Terminator Three: Rise of the Machines in pro-logic sound and 480p presentation.

The PS3:

Terminator Three: Rise of the Machines in 1080p and Dolby Digital sound.

Same event but its NOT the same experience!

Thats why the wii is looked on as inferior due to LOWER capabilities that are measurable.

The 360 and the PS3 are This Gen.

The Wii is LAST GEN as in YESTERDAY.

I think we all know the difference between the real next gen consoles....and the ones that just happened to come out this gen...

Wii is pretty much the same as last gen, graphically its probably a little worse-the same, but with a new controller....it doesnt even allow "next-gen" games because developers cant use the great physics,graphics, AI and all of that...

Wii was fun for a few minutes....not it just sits on my shelf....havnt played it in months....waste of money

Geez join the club since my Wii now does duty as a wheelchock to keep customers cars from rolling as we install car amps and speaker boxes in our shop.

The price difference was $100 in GCN vs PS2 days.

And they are both still expensive.

Have it LOWER than the cost of the Wii, and maybe people will buy the PS3.

How many worth while games on the wii by december?

5

How many worth while games on the ps3 by december?

9

And what do you mean by expensive since I assume that you either have a job or parents?

That should be how many worthwhile games on ps3 that I cant get on the 360 which I own.

resistance, and mortorstorm come to mind maybe warhawk

the wii?

re4,zelda,MP3,wario,spm,mario galaxy ssbb? (might be delayed) BWII, rayman 1,2

the wii isnt has an exclusive line up unlike some systems.

Re4? its been there done that on the GC and PS2, Zelda its re-fried from Game Cube, like I said only FIVE games till December on the wii.

And as far as I know these are PS3 exclusives and in Dolby Digital and in 720p at least and not gimped versions on older hardware.

You left out:

Drakes Fortune.

Haze.

Ratchet and Clank.

Folklore.

Heavenly Sword.

Only an idiot would get a credit card to get $100 off of a PS3. Hardly "a significant game changer."

TimeToPartyHard

Fanboy much?

Its a big game changer when instead of paying six hundred its only 299 to get the same hardware.

A gimped wii unit for 249 or the latest PS3 for 299, gee let me think.(sarcasm for those wii fanboys that missed the point).

But then some "*****" have a hard time understanding what a 100 dollar gift card is.

So now the wii fanboys are upset that the "its so expensive" excuse is gone and that the 360 will sell more and the PS3 will sell more.

The price difference was $100 in GCN vs PS2 days.

And they are both still expensive.

Have it LOWER than the cost of the Wii, and maybe people will buy the PS3.

Before with the Wii at 246 and the PS3 at 600 dollars it was no contest with the Wii selling a lot due to low price.

Enter the game changers:

One: a PS3 40 gig. SKU for 399

Two: a one hundred dollar gift bonus for Sony Lifestyle credit card signup.

Enter Ken Kutaragi with 299! its 299! your 40 gig. PS3 is 299! with the gift card!

And we have a significant game changer.

Come November gamers are going to be considering purchasing a Wii with its inherent hardware limitations and fewer quality games for 249 dollars- versus-299 dollars for a more technologicaly advanced unit with Online, DVD, Blu-ray movie playback and dolby digital output.

I forsee many more buying the PS3 and lower Wii sales.

Time wounds all heels.

A PS3 for 299 is the sweet spot.

Hmmm was the price diff. 50 dollars in the Game Cube versus PS2 days?
