The Xbox 360 is actually more expensive' date=' because of this:

 

[b']System itself=300[/b]

Live/yr=50

 

Those are necessary, and the hardware is VERY OVERPRICED.

 

lolno

Only if you buy an Elite, which is more of a pimped out 360.

A normal "Arcade" 360 is only $200 :P

 

You mean a shitty Arcade that everyone I know told me to avoid? yeah.

 

If you like innovative' date=' motion control, and platformer games, go with the Wii.

Xbox 360 has the best online, along with the best exclusive games. We may have to pay to be online, but we get better deals on items, and get Map Packs / add-ons before PS3 does.

If you like racing / fighting games, maybe go with the PS3? I wouldn't know, since it's the one out of the 3 I don't own.

lol innovative XD

lol best exclusive XD

 

Why would I buy a PS3 for racing games when I can play the best racing game there is: Forza Motorsport 3 as a 360-exclusive?

 

Gran funking Turismo 5?

 

Read= Xbox360 vs PS3

 

The Wii is great too if you have brothers' date=' sisters, or friends that can play with you. =D

I agree with a guy. That's exactly my point.

Don't get a Wii. Thats a family and sort of party-style (I suppose) game console. And there are only a few games that I would recommend for a single player.

 

I am a 360 fan and will never goover to the dark side, but I will admit that if you've got the money a PS3 would be a very good choice. They have plenty of Exclusive games that I want.

No, the Wii is perfectly fine for single player. It's just that a majority of the games are also included to support multiple people, but they still can be just as fun with a single player.

 

And I can lash back saying that the other two systems are somewhat dependant on their online activity, meaning you won't have as much playing your Halo or CoD without online play or friends. Seriously, who plays gun games alone?

It's not shitty xD

Unless you are someone who is so biased against the 360 such as yourself.

 

It actually doesn't have many differences to the Elite, aside from the obvious color difference, and the fact that the Elite includes a hardrive, and a headset :P

Don't look at the console but rather at it's exclusive library. Also I'm sure there's a ton of great PS2 games you still haven't heard of that are worth trying out.

I

 

This perfectly sums up my view.

 

If you want more help' date=' you need to tell us what kind of games you like.

Like I said in the first post, i love my PS2, and will keep it, but I want a new console for the new games coming out this summer (and others, too) like Transformers: War for Cybertron and Sonic the Hedgehog 4.

 

I have narrowed down my choices to a Wii or PS3.

What games do you like (action games, platformers, more party style). That is the factor that makes you go for the Wii or PS3. you also need to think of what games the system has that you really want. I have a list of 20 something good games that are only on the Wii and it's in the Wii thread so if you want to check it out you can look there..

I like plat-formers, some RPG's, action, etc.

 

The reason I like the Wii is the Multiplayer features, so then I could play a game with me, my brother, and 2 friends at the same time instead of having to take turns all the time.

Also Icy is another idiot because there is no console which is built around a couple of genre's. Ignore him.

 

I mentioned controller feel for what the games are preferred for <_<". How is that idiotic? I'd LOVE to see you play SF3:3 on the Xbox 360, then on the Ps3 and tell me you don't feel a drastic difference.

I suggest a Wii over a PS3.

 

It has tons of exclusives and it's much more interactive.

 

Not saying that the PS3 doesn't have it's good points (Superior graphics, some good exclusive games) but the Wii should easily fit your needs. Just don't buy crappy games for it, otherwise your experience will be ruined.

It has tons of quality exclusives and it has much more variety (not just party games/minigame collections/fighting games/etc).

 

Not saying that the Wii doesn't have it's good points (awesome gameplay), but the PS3 is much more capable of other things. Plus it's online is much more refined than it's Wii counterpart.

 

 

Thanks to DM for the awesome template. :D

Just because the D-pads suck for fighting games doesn't mean that shooters just don't work on the PS3 or role playing games don't work on the 360.

 

Wii for entertainment

ps3 for graphics.

IDK about 360

Hope this helps and good luck finding a system:)

 

What? You can use the PS3 as a blu-ray player, DVD and CD player as well as play songs, movies and see pictures from a flash drive. How does entertainment become a good point for the Wii plus there isn't the huge difference in graphics of multiplatform games between the PS3-360.

The 360 has all of that apart from the Blu-Ray, which I will admit sucks. The Wii's graphics are poor, though I've come to care slightly less when it comes to the Wii now. I think he means entertainment as in playing the console though, rather than media.
