After trying to own both 360 and PS3 I had to let one go. Mainly because of space and because they both play most of the same games.
I eventually sold my PS3 because well I invested more in the 360 with an HD DVD and more games and movies. So sorry Sony maybe next year.
Anyways this blog is more concern with the system wars. Over the last few months I have notice that there isnt anything other than Medal Gear, coming out for the ps3 that had any noticeable interests to me. The 360 is getting more exclusives and they are getting the games faster. I think the 360 just might be the best for HD console gaming due to its game lineup.
But, remember the 3DO and Atari 64? Or the 32x? These were more powerful systems back in the day than there counterparts. They had some solid games but the market belonged to Sony Nintendo and Sega. After the fall of the Sega systems there was only Sony and Nintendo. Nintendo, did at one time have system more powerful than any out there but still lost due to the popularity of the PS1. I think Sony isnt understanding why Nintendo's Less powerful system WII is beating them to death in all markets. I know MS has there hands full now that they are doing alright but still they dont really have a clue either.
I will tell why its gonna be the best system overall now, so please Sony and MS listen.
When a new system is being launched the only people interested are the gamers who live for gaming. These people want the best system with games. We all thought Sony was doing was a great job by bringing us this massive system with all these HD capabilities and we loved how MS brought us a system with HD early but, we all missed the point what PS1 and Nintendo (Famicon) did, it was to bring us a system to change our lives. See, Nintendo opened the door to a better all users system like as they did with the orignal Nintendo. They gave a new joystick and a price we all could afford. Sony once gave us the system with the all the exclusive we could want.
The WII is winning because well, like the systems before, its what the world wants not just the hardcore gamer. They said they wanted a system for everyone and they did. It's not ever gonna compete in graphics or HD video wars cuz thats what they are here for. They are here to bring a gaming system that delivers fun and excitement. It's not meant to bring one or 2 exclusives a month, they want like 20 or 30 games out at a time. Why?
Because the people who buy the systems want choice. If MS relies only on Halo then what about the guy like me who don't like Halo (I know thats belongs in another blog) but serious, I like the Arcade games and most others.
The Wii offers so much for so little. They're not telling you to buy movies, or decide based off thier hardware just try it for fun.
I dont officially own a WII, it's almost impossible to get an American Version in Germany where I am based. But as soon as I can, there will be a WII in the spot of the Sony PS3.
I am sorry if some people are mad because I am sure there are alot of people who want to diss agree but really, why is so hard to accept that Nintendo is back on top?
Look at the numbers and see for yourself, its not a fluke or some luck. They are doing what they do best, giving us fun!
