Default Next generation console

Now that PlayStation3 and Nintendo Wii are finally starting to hit the stores around the globe, what's your next generation console of choice?

If I would buy a console, it would most probably be Nintendo Wii. Playstation 3 is expensive, has a blu-ray drive which is pretty useless and doesn't have dvd-drive. 360 has dvd-drive but is also expensive, and the games are just same stuff that you can play with PC or the older x-box just with better graphics (that you can't even enjoy without hd-television). Wii has some really interesting stuff and it's cheap.

Agree about the 360. There's only a couple of games so far that are using the new power boost to change the actual gameplay instead of just adding prettier graphics to games that could have been done with the old box.

Then there's going to be this battle between PS3's blu-ray and hd-dvd (that you can buy for your 360 soon) that reminds me of VHS versus BETA...

Wii is my choice also, can't wait to play it with some friends and beer

I've got a 360 and I'm very happy with it. For me, it was a toss up between PS3 and the 360, but I got the 360 mainly because it's way cheaper, and because PS3 was late in Europe.

I've got to say the Wii. It's a totally different experience than the others.

I like the wii because you can get a workout that you really enjoy. The tennis and Tiger Woods golf is amazing. I played it at a friends house and i cant get one cuz its sold out every where but you can get a PS3 any where now. Thats crazy

I say the Wii as well. It's interesting because I have a friend who is starting some programs aimed at combating childhood obesity, and the Wii is actually part of their program, since it actually does involve physical activity. Who would have thought it of a computer game?

I havent had a chance to play the wii yet but I own a ps3 and a 360. I havent played in the ps3 in months, thats how much I like the 360. I would definetly recommend the 360. The one thing I do like about the ps3 is the Blu Ray capability but I wouldnt sacrifice the gameplay on the 360 to play blu ray discs.

I used to have Atari 2600, Nintendo, Sega, then the original Playstation. I stopped after that once I got a computer, I play all games on there now, be it online or software for the PC.

XBox360 is the best because it has the best graphic and is the most realistic-looking.

ps3 is so much better than the 360

games like resistance are the most lfe like game i have ever played in my entire life, sports games are also insane, i think xbox users are haters because they dont have halo on 360



and dont lie u know its the truth
