360, PS3, or Wii?
Just wondering if any of you got any of the new generation systems yet, and if so, what do you think?
I'm a little disappointed by the Wii and PS3, but the 360 is sweet so far.
Although, we'll have to wait a few months for some good software to get this rollin.

# 3 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
i dont have any yet, but the only one i would buy, and will be buying is the Wii. i dont have one yet, because i dont want white, so im waiting on the black or red one to come out, hopefully they will come out with a silver or 'platinum' so it will match my gamecube!
i say this because, its the cheapest, and looks to be the most entertaining! in a way, its a form of exercise if you use the Wii mote.
ps3 has amazing technology with the blu ray, but both the 360 and ps3 are overpriced tremendously. and the wii games are cheaper :)
# 4 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
I'm either getting a new computer or a Wii. :P
Looks like the funnest of them all, and the virtual consoles is a nice bonus. Not to mention the base price is much cheaper.. you can get games and controllers and the Wii for the same price that you'd pay just for the PS3..

The wii
I'm kinda bored of console games with regular controllers, and I wanna try something new
and who can beat that price?
# 6 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
I've got a 360. I'm not really a gamer though. Usually only play with company over and lately all we've played is fifa 07. The new Rainbow Six Vegas looks pretty sweet. I saw that gamespot gave it a 9.1. The wii looks very interesting, if I ever find myself with an extra $250 burning a hole in my pocket I may pick one up.
# 7 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
My friend has a Wii, and I've played the 360 and PS3 at stores...
I will probably get a Wii, then a 360 sometime next year. The PS3 is, I must admit, nicer than I thought it would be, but it's just too expensive.

I agree.
The 360 will really come into being next year with some killer hits, but Zelda for the Wii is enough for me now!

# 9 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
i also thing the 360 will be an even bigger hit whehn Halo 3 comes out. im actually not into halo, and have never played but there are millions of people who are, so im sure microsoft will sell more 360's when the release date gets closer
# 10 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
I think CoD 3 for Wii looks cool.

I agree.

If so, awesome :D I'm thinking about picking one up maybe early next year - my 360 is still keeping me occupied - still have a number of quests to finish first in Oblivion, as well as completing Dead Rising...

# 13 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
i plan on ghetting a 360 soon
# 14 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
After playing my brother's PS3, I'm sold. I shall be picking one up after I've gone through the rest of my electronics list...
# 15 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
you can test drive a Wii for a maxium of 30mins(some stores are 15) you hand then an ID such as a drivers/health card...and they give you a remote and you can play the wii..i went like 2 times yesturday and played...
at ebgames and gamesstop!

Nope, pre-ordered from Canada but they've been selling like hotcakes so it hasn't shipped just yet. Should have it before it launches in Australia, though. Can't wait.

Yeah I did that too at EB Games. They said I could give them my S/I number, but I wasn't going to give them that.
# 19 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
i went this morning and played bowling at ebgames for 30mins! it was fun..until the strap broked!
# 20 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
I waited at GameStop for 3 hours two weeks ago for the demo Wii to arrive. But it didn't, and I haven't made it back since. I'm hoping to go today though.
Anyway, Wii for me- just not right now.
# 21 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
Waa... no Wii. Good thing we're "adults" and can wait until after the holidays to pick one up. The line for 20 Wii's (at BB in Watertown MA) was about 100 folks deep. Youda think folks could count!

# 22 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
I've been a PS fan pretty much only because of the GT series so there's no question I'll get one... a year or two from now. :rolleyes:
360 I'd want ONLY because GoW is on it. That's ###. I'll probably "rent" it and check out GoW with a friend. :)
Wii... uhh. Sorry no, and please COD3 on a Wii :busts out laughing: Speaking of COD, WTH did they make a 3rd one??
# 23 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
I am not a gamer myself, and I am planning on getting a Wii. I had an XBOX and wasn't too incredibly happy with it. I am not shooter obsessed, nor do I care to have 12 year olds cussing at me while I play online.
The games on the Wii are a lot more engaging without really the need to go online. It seems more quick in and out styled gaming, and standard platformers.
# 24 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
My boyfriend bought the Wii. It's a lot of fun. All of his roommates are obsessed with Wii Sports right now, it's probably the best game I've played in awhile too.
The only game he's bought so far is Red Steel, and I've heard that it's not the greatest.
Also, we haven't been able to get the Wii online yet as he is having some trouble with the wireless network in his house.
But the Wii is awesome, it's so unlike any other gaming system. I love it!
# 25 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
costco gets 25 every week at my costco!
# 26 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
I can't wait until I pick up the PS3 and Wii, but if your sticking with one then I would say wait a few more months and see how the games-side of things play out. Right now the 360 has some amazing games, but I feel that it's going to go through a rough patch early next year. The PS3 and Wii have just come out there so software (maybe bar Zelda) is going to mostly be sub-par.
Im thinking that in the end, the PS3 will have produced the highter quantity of quality games if the PS2 is anything to go by...
# 27 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
I like the Wii the best, but I don't have either one of the three. My only consoles are the PlayStation 2 and the Nintendo 64. I sold my Nintendo Gamecube to ebGames in October.
# 28 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
Are you buying the Nintendo wii console?
Have you been lucky enough to get hold of one if so whats it like?

# 29 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
Yeah, I'm going to buy one when I can get one without much hassle, and when the strap problem ( http://www.wiihaveaproblem.com/show_cat.php?cat=1) is fixed

# 31 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
I don't really think it's a problem. Who needs to thrust the Wiimote around with so much force that they can't even hold on to it anymore? It's debatable how many of the stories are even true.

# 32 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
Meh, I’m thinking that I’m going to get an Xbox 360 for Christmas. The NCAA Football game looks really addicting when you play someone over the internet.
The Wii does look interesting though. I think it serves more as a party game. I bet it would be really fun with a ton of people over.

Exactly my thoughts! There's absolutely no need to be that vigorous with the Wiimote. Simple movements get the job done and still give you a great feel of the Wiimote.

# 34 Re: 360, PS3, or Wii?
i got an xbox360,
it has the best graphics (hopefully ps3 will improve) out of the three and you can get great deals on them unlike the other 2. I got a PREMIUM system with an extra wireless controller for around 260 bucks:eek:
