Xbox 360, PS3, or Wii?

i would choose the Xbox 360 because it is the simplest one and cheaper than PS3 and it doesn't have a crappy controller like the Wii. *y*

oh yah, i didn't do a poll because there wasn't a New Poll button there

Wii, definitely

It has a great line of games coming out soon, and launched with a bunch of fantastic ones too! It's dirt cheap compared to the other two consoles, and the controller is truly a thing of beauty :'-) It would be hard to go back to playing consoles with regular controllers after using the Wiimote, it's like being truly a part of the game.

The 360 is okay I guess, but poor controller design, a higher price, and things of that nature put me off.

As for the PS3? Don't even get me started :-D Sony really committed suicide this gen with all the bonehead mistakes they made...

Wii. Great Price, Great games, and Great Gameplay.

Second up is the Xbox360. Good graphics, good gameplays. Great and LOTS of game titles. Second least expensive.

PS3. Good, Expensive. Graphics are good. Though controlers are the same.

So, I would go with the Wii. If not, then the XBOX-360.

Wii Good!

PS3 & 360 Bad!!!

Seriously though, there is no contest it is pretty much a competition like this, would you rather have a system focusing more on raw power and graphics opposed to actual games or a system that focuses directly on games and is less powerful. Yea, I think everyone knows which one.

**mutley777** · December 6, 2006

I think wii is the best machine really because of the price and nintendo always deliver amazing games! The ps3 and 360 nead such a big investment to see the machines at there best (high spec HD TV). For that kind of money you can buy a top spec PC that kicks the sh*t out of both of them put together.

**Lord Thrawn** · December 6, 2006

I'm an XBox 360 guy.

Depends. Are you a mainstream gamer who just wants his games to look good? Get a Xbox 360 or PS3.

Are you a real gamer who actually wants some innovation (last time that happenend was when games went 3D), get a Wii.

I'm getting a Wii. I would even have gotten one if I wasn't a Nintendo fanboy (who does have a Dreamcast, PS1 and PS2, by the way).

optimus-convoy · December 6, 2006

Just check the sig, need I say more? X-D

But yeah, I'm getting a Wii. Mainly because it just has and will have so many quirky innovative games, yet can still deliver a hardcore experience, it's actually affordable, and doesn't push HD.

Unfortunately, many people, especially the teens and older tweens, think the former is better than the latter these days. In my old school, you got dissed for even liking Nintendo. I even got called a "Nintendo freak" just for expressing my opinion about the next-gen systems! Sometimes I really wonder what has happend to the teen/tween culture these days. :-|

Now I guess you can tell which system I'm for. X-D Yep, Wii for me, because of the reasons stated by almost everybody else that has posted so far. It's too bad my family can't afford one.... :-(

**Lost Viking** · December 7, 2006

It sounds like Wii is owning everything. I wonder if PS3 or 360 will get anymore votes?

P.S.- Grevious my friends called me "NintendoJohn" two years ago after I said that I liked Wind Waker, Hehe. Then they tried my DS and they all bought one and sold their PSPoo.

**JoeMI6** · December 7, 2006

Yeah, I'm going for the Wii as well, but if I had the extra money, I'd buy a 360 as well.

That's irony :-D . I just saw a really creepy PS3 ad. Like a creepy baby and the console in a white room. The baby talks creepily. It was a confusing ad. You know, I don't think I've ever seen a TV ad for the 360 console itself?

They should've kept their PSPoo... X-D

Yes, they'll be a nice relic one day, like the Neogeo, Wonderswan, and Gamegear X-D Oh wait, Gamegear had good games...

It's not a coincidence that the DS is dominating the handheld market worldwide ;-)

Prateek, I don't think that you are grasping at the fact that wii are all Nintendo fanboys here. :-P

I'll get wichever Konami decides to release new Castlevania and Goemon games. That likely excludes xbox.

They are of high probability releases for Wii, plus Wii has Metroid and Zelda!

Until then I'll stick with Castlevania:Portrait of Ruin for the nintendo DS

How is PoR anyways? I was thinking of getting it. Also, Konami hinted towards a Castlevania for Wii.

The feel and layout is quite similar Dawn of Sorrow or Symphony of the the Night as an action rpg.

You control and switch between 2 characters; Jonathan is weapon weilder with subweapons such as holy water, and Charlotte is a mage with several magical attacks. They can also preform dual attacks wich are the most powerful. Great soundtrack and good graphical effects... ie. explosions and magicks.

Has Nintendo mentioned a connection to the DS via controler port such as gb advanced and gamecube?

**Jipay** · December 9, 2006

I don't recall hearing anything about something like that. But I think it'd just be a matter of time before they think about it...

As for which console ? The DS gets my vote, especially with the new MP3 function :-)

I'd go for a wii next, but you can't even find one here, it's sold out everywhere ! :-D

Yes they have. The first game that will use it will be Pokemon Battle Revolution (PBR also happens to be the first wi-fi game!)

Iv'e walked into number's stores in the past few days and they all had them in stock. Now PS3.... Ya right.

For me its the 360. Iv'e played all 3, (and own a 360), and the 360 has the best range of games. Though i guess that it also depends on the type of games your into. Myself, i like racing sims, so anything nintendeo is out. I liked Forza better than Gran Turismo, so XBOX was the choice for me. But when it comes to role playing games, then i guess the Wii, or the other nintendoe consoles would be the best choice. As far as grafics goes, if you have the right TV, then i still thinkn the 360 is better than the Wii and PS3. And thats another thing. People can go on and on about who's grafics are better, to to take full advantage, you need a high def TV. other wise there all going to be pretty much the same.

Xbox 360 gets my vote.

Wow... here do you live? Because just spent my mourning going to 5 stores and didn't find a single one! :-D

Oh well... I guess I'll just go and wait in line at Target next Sunday at 7:00am. :-D

I live in Northern Califorina. East bay. I went to the target and TRU in Pistgurg. Both had them in stock.

**Scouty** · December 10, 2006

Well theres the problem, they're in different countries. As it's already been released here, Everythings going to be in stock. As it's just been released in Europe, it's going to be in low stock.

**JoeMI6** · January 1, 2007

All the stores in my area have absolutely zilch. There is not even any accesories or games available in some shops.
