Im gonna like the wii a lot, theres a lot of possibility

360 is cool, i guess

ps3 is basically a bluray reader and a ps2 crammed together into the same box.

yeah. the new consoles are pretty disappointing

Wii = my pick for most innovative console, and it has Zelda which owns all.

That being said, I can see the 360 being the console that consistently has the best games.

PS3 will take a while to get things going...

I have played the 360 like twice, but I'd take it because of the game genres. The 360 seems to be the FPS console, like Gears of War.... buddy says its great. I don't really play those other games, like ever. Just FPS and stuff like that when I have time.

I think the wii is pretty innovative. Too bad the games aren't supported with it. And the technology isn't up with PS3 and 360

Gears of War on a HD Tv shows how badass the 360 is

I haven't a clue, and I have to sense to admit it. I will wait until everyone else buys and test them, and I will buy one second hand later for a quarter of the price.

I like the premise of the Wii, change the controls rather than the graphics. I thought the graphics in the PS2 and XBox were fine. I would rather they make the games more realistic control-wise and eliminate the boot up time and other lag.

the wii graphics seem considerably better than the GCs, though not as good as the other two consoles.

but that controller is byitchiiin

I love the games and networking of the 360, but I have to send mine in to get it fixed, not super reliable.

Ps3>Wii>360

The ps3 is the most powerful, and has the most potential.
The wii is the most innovative.

The 360 is just a slightly better looking xbox as far as I'm concerned.

You'd be an idiot to pick up a 360 IMO.
Nearly every game you pick up on the 360 will be on the PC as well. Which you can download anyway.

You are truly a sony nuthugger. PS3 has yet to prove it's superiority graphically. Yeah, it has more collisions, but the same game looks better on the 360 right now.

Yeah I'd put 360 over the top of the ps3 right now, and I like how no one has mentioned price so far.

FPS are pretty much the best, but fuck em on consoles.

I need my mouse and keyboard.

You forgot zelda, BUT thats the extent.

I am curious how the Wii will please consumers. I honestly would have to try it, along with a good game, like say, an FPS(?) to really know if it was worth a buy, let alone beat the competition.

As much as I am going to want the PS3 when God of War2 comes out. Stocked or not, I am still NOT paying that price.

I liked F-Zero64 and Star Fox too. And how did you leave out Mario64?! Come on, that game was genius!

I also played a lot of Mortal Kombat Trilogy.. I remember getting that game for one of my birthdays.

God of War 2 is for PS2, not PS3.

Star Fox was too easy, and I never actually owned Mario64. I was on an allowance salary back then, I couldnt afford it. :lol:
