Wii, PS3, or 360?

i got a got for my wife for xmas. we have played it maybe 5 times since. It can be fun but not something that I would be playing all the time. I like my Xbox better. Wii is more of a "social" game for when you have people over.

 

I vote Wii if you are looking for a console that will have fun games that aren't too in depth. If you're looking for big games like Final Fantasy, then Wii isn't the right choice.

Since you already play PC games, PC > XBox/PS3. If you got an XBox/PS3, it would just be like buying a console that could play the same games your PC can with crappier controls (I hate FPS on consoles.)

 

I have had my Wii for a little over a yr and I love it. It is the only system that my wife likes to play too.

 

I got a Wii for the kids for X-mas and they love it.

 

Get the PS3. My husband uses it a lot for gaming. We probably use it more often as a blu-ray player. He plays online all the time and has several friends that he plays with (online) in private games. Love the online play. You can also get online to browse the internt - although the last time we played with that, it sucked (good if you don't have a computer). You can download games from playstation store - some free, others a few bucks. You can download demos for free. You can download TV & movies (haven't done this myself). USB ports, wireless controllers, hook your ipod to it, store pictures in it....

 

My brother in law got me hooked on the wii. Now we all have one. My latest is addiction is wakeboarding and archery.

 

I vote for 360.

Xbox proprietary games are better then PS3's. Most of the great games for both both consoles. The 360 controller is MUCH more comfortable.

 

360, Gears of War and Halo. enough said.

 

Well considering the fact that I'm now on my 3rd x-box because of the RROD, x-box kinda pisses me off, but I can't be too mad because they have fixed them all for FREE so far. If my friends all didnt have x-box i might switch to PS3. But I love the controller of the x-box over the PS3.

 

i can write paragraphs on why PS3 is better than 360 and Wii

but i dont want to

I still laugh whenever I see this. Surprised it hasn't been posted yet...

 

have wii xbox360 psp ds and gameboy. dont use any of them....so sad. wii graphics suck compared to xbox.wii is great to have a bunch of drunk friends over.with wii you can even get chicks(drunk chicks) to play and thats always fun.xbox is great with the online shit.i think ps3 online is free.just have to buy the parts(i think thats what i heard).i think xbox has all the better sports games(used to at least)

 

Serious gaming Ps3 or 360....Wii is cool but gets boring after a while. I had a 360 but had to deal with 2 consoles with the "red ring of death". Did that issue ever get fixed? I voted PS3.

 

that doesnt make sense at all

 

i dont think they ever fixed the red eye but they will fix it for free(i think forever)ours took a shit at 4 months old

 

Ohh man that sucks...

 

It's from a couple years ago when the only reason to buy a PS3 was for the Blueray player. The system and games were way pricier, and the internet capabilities weren't built up or used yet.

Yeah the graphics may be great, but if I had a television were it made a difference, I'd probably be sitting far enough away where I wouldn't notice the difference anyway.

I'm happy with my Wii of 3+ years. Still wouldn't buy a PS3 unless I wanted a Blueray player.

 

sucks but was a free fix

 

the red ring does not usually happen to the newer systems as much as it did with the first Xbox 360s. I have had mine for a year without any problems. The Xbox 360 is between $200 and $300 depending on what one you get.

 

Haha, yep, that's a classic.

PC > console. Some people don't have the money/know how to build/buy a gaming PC though. PS3/Xbox are a cheaper alternative. Wii offers something the PC doesn't with the wiimote.
