Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ah, The Wii just seems... awesome.
PS3 lokks great too, it just seems t like they kinda ripped off the Wii when making their controller.
I have little time so I'll edit in my opinion later.

Oh boy! Here goes...(this is for you Jedi Master Lee)

I am a "gamer of knowledge" as well. eek


-I'm guessing you're talking about the line at E3 that was about a 3 hour wait, while Sony and Microsoft didn't have near that long. Although I don't actually know how long each person was allowed to play, they did only have five consoles and MS might have had more, but this wasn't "artificially inflating" of any sort. Just popularity.

-Uh, I don't know what your source for this one was, but the controller is precise. (If you didn't know, precise and accurate are two different things. Look it up) The sensor bar is not the middle of a virtual analog stick either. It is an IR sensor with basically the same functionality as your standard TV remote. The difference being it can plot any point in 3D space and tell it to the Wii processor. I am very sure that there will be a setting for sensor bar on top of TV and on bottom, countering your "center" theory. You are correct it determines angle.

-Sony didn't use any such technology in their little PSP. Their controller determines tilt in the controller, and it has no idea about the location in 3D space like the Wii's. It is easier to develop because it is cheaper and crappier.

- True. But in case you didn't know, the Opera browser will be incorporated into the Wii and with WiiConnect24, you can always be on.

- I actually haven't heard this, but it sounds really cool! But knowing Microsoft, it probably will not be compatible for PCs.

- That's not really a design copy. Not patented anywhere.

- What do you want to use dual HDMI for? And I'm pretty sure it has S-Video outputs.

- Of course it does. We all knew that.

- Here in America, there is a $100 difference. Not that much of a difference as you say, but the X360 was borderline expensive. The PS3 crosses that border. Just my opinion.

I am curious as to what systems you have too. You seem like a cool guy.

I have every system that was made (yes even sega's failed dreamcast) expect the 360 and I have my reasons for not buying one. As you said in the post before this one and the post before mine, yes everything you said about the 360 is true, the lack of third party support, Horrible lauch, everything. Sure they may have signed alot of third party company's like:

Namco
Square-enix
Bandi (I don't know if they merged yet or not)
Atari
Capcom
etc...

But still there lacking

The PS3... true again what you said the price is crazy, the company's already in a "red light" from just making the system but I still I'm planing to buy one. I was pretty mad when they took out the force feedback they said it was "past generation" but instead it's Motion sensitive I hope they make a controller with it built in so you can feel your head getting blown off.

And the wii, I have no words to say about the wii only about the name, but we both know it's not about name. It's line up is okay with mario, legend of zelda, and the other games I'm just wondering why snake is on Super Smash Bros Brawl? It's because Metal gear was Originally on the nintendo?

What did you expect of videogames?

I like them all 3nodding We know people that work for Nintendo, so we'll get a Wii, we already have a 360, and we have to get a PS3 or else I'll go crazy @_@
Yep, we've always dabbled in all the game systems. We(my family) have 3 DS' and a PSP, plus all the older systems, too 3nodding
Wanna come to my house and play games? xd

my family is a video game family.. we are all interested in different types of video games though....
