Re: Which of the new Consoles do you prefer and why?

Maybe sometime later next year I might try to get a Wii just because it seems like it would be fun. If I had a choice and money didn't matter I would prob get a PS3 though. Just because it has the games I want on it. (ie. Metal Gear, FF, and a few others.)

Re: Which of the new Consoles do you prefer and why?

Anyone actually know of a place to get a Wii that doesnt involve an online auction site?

Re: Which of the new Consoles do you prefer and why?

Well I for one really hope that Sony does come back. I really could care less about GTA however if Final Fantasy pulled out on Sony i could def see some serious problems for the system. One of the major reasons im sticking with the Ps3 is because most companies come out with very nice RPG's on the Sony consoles...and the other systems kinda suck...i mean sure zelda looks good, but how many times can you play Zelda without having the wiimote fly towards your TV =P

Infinity times. None of the Wii games I've played require such drastic motions that I'd lose my grip on the controller or break the strap. It's the laziest controller I've ever used; for Zelda I recline all the way back, prop my head up, and let my arms rest at my sides. No longer are my arms shackled together!! FREEEEEDOM!!! ()

BTW, anybody shocked that Dragon Quest IX is on the DS? DS wins the console wars! (In Japan. )

Re: Which of the new Consoles do you prefer and why?

I voted PC and Wii.

Mainly I'd rather stick with PC, and Wii just has interesting gameplay and is more of a novelty.

As for why I didn't vote for the other two, PS3 is likely good, and I have no beef with it.

XBox 360, however, is kind of a lame release. Not lame in gameplay. Lame in the fact that you get 90 day warantee on the system, and if it breaks *which they are breaking left and right* after that, you have to pay 150 bucks to get it fixed + shipping.

The warantee market is just retarded. They make so much money of the product in the first place, then you have to pay even more for it to be "guaranteed" to work correctly. What a world.

/Agreed, I have heard so many horror stories from friends and posts online about the 360's horrible gurantee. How many people want to buy a system that costs 300-600 and have a 90 day gurantee? If im shelling out that much cash I better get the system in top notch performance along with a gurantee for at least AT LEAST 1-3 years. One of the major reasons im not buying a 360 is because of that horrible gurantee.

Both PS3 and 360 are sold at a loss.
