Wii.
Affordable, very cool and unique (unlike all the others that are all the same) and good games!
Ps3:
Very high price
Amazing graphics
Good games
No rumble
Same as usual.
I go for the Wii :)
i would go for the nitendo wii as you move your hands wich iz kinda cool. i think nitendo have the rite idea becoz most peeeps move hands when on most games anyway even if they on a ps2 or ps3 etc...
ps3 also has motion detectors in the controlers, althoigh not all ps3 games support this feature, many do, so moveing your hands does effect the game in the ps3 as well, although this is combined with a normal control mechnism, insted of replaceing it as has the wii
I can't see a 3 year old being able to play on a Wii to be honest.Quote:

Take Aqua Aqua, The Simpsons, Futurama and RC Revenge.Quote:

Because you have so much to do and the story line can be complex.Quote:

Fair enough that you happen to favour games that are on the PS2, but opinions are terrible when you do not go accross the boundaries in Nintendo.
They are serious about gaming? Why do you think they have revolutionised the way we play games with a more interactive way to play games?! Zelda isn't childish, children can play it if they want, but they won't understand it as much as we can, they probably wn't be able to understand the controls aswell easier as a mature audience. Wii Sports isn't that childish, I can see what you mean by childish but it depends if you want it to be.Quote:

I don't play games. A Wii is a simulation of real life. Why can't you just GO SNOWBOARDING or PLAYPINGPONG!
I'd have to disagree with the part in which you say Nintendo games are immature. As many people have said Red Steel is definately not aimed at younger children. On that note aswell there is only so many times you can blow up a helicopter or shoot and kill people on GTA SA before it gets boring. I find myself unable to play on any of my old GTA games and Timesplitters games mainly because they were easy to complete and there really isnt much to do after the main storylines, apart from collect 'oysters' and such which is just rather bland.Quote:

I greatly prefer the Wii over any other console (right now). It's small, efficient, and innovative. I really don't think this is a debate that will end with a straightforward answer since console choice is usually based on preference.
The thing I enjoy the most about the Wii is the intuitivity of the games. Basically, it is almost a half VR kind of immersion.. an immediate response to your fluidic motion. No controller out there can replicate this. Press all the buttons you want, there is still a base level of detachment between you and the game. The traditional control scheme forces you to emulate motion that would be far more immediate and intuitive with the Wii. The immediacy and intimacy of the interaction allows for whole new worlds of possibility. Haven't you ever felt held back with traditional controllers? Like if you had say, a neural interface, how much better would you be at Quake or Street Fighter? This is a step closer to that.. something which can immediately respond to your thoughts. The subtle interplay between you and the controller in real time eliminates a lot of the lag time between you and the character which is enforced through having to press button sequences. The closer you are to actually being the character in real time, the more dynamic the possibilities of the game play. While the PS3 does offer something similar to the Wiimote, it still lacks that kind of immersion because the controller is still utilized in a fashion that limits its motion sensing capabilities. The SIXAXIS (the PS3 controller's name) also lacks force feedback, which lowers the intuitiveness of the games that use this haptic technology.
Last gaming generation, Sony won the "console war" because it provided a well balance between price and technology. The price wasn't exactly cheap, but it was something the average consumer could afford to pay for. Because DVD playback had gone mainstream through computers, it was a big plus for comsumers to have one built-in to their PS2. The PS3 has many pluses, but they're all useless since you can pretty much get them on an Xbox 360 for less money. Technological superiority means nothing. It's like saying you made a great painting because you used the best set of paints.
Not exactly recalling the controllers. They're providing a form to people to have the straps on their controllers replaced with the new 1mm thick ones. The straps will be sent to the customers via mail.Quote:

Sure, it seems kind of old, but to some that's the beauty of it, you get to stick with the characters you've grown up on, and watched grow up themselves (graphically/capability wise) with each new system. Of course as it relates to you, you've grown out of it, but some do find the deeper connection even if it's actually something as simple as it makes them feel young again, between the car crashing and head exploding of other games in their collection.Quote:

People who live in glass virtual hotels shouldnt throw stones. ;)
Both! :D Why not? They always come out with a game I want on a different system! I got so sick of it! So I try to get all of them. But I'm waiting until the Ps3s come out later and not spend 800-1500 on ebay
