The problem with PS3 is it’s price point and complexity… it is ahead of its time and will catchup over the next year or two I have no worries about it. It kills Wii in graphics department and backward compatibility with PS2 games which are cheap until PS3 come out + bluray is a winning combination in my mind.

The ironic thing is that I read an article just yesterday about how Wii developers were reconsidering the Wii, since it was looking like Nintendo has a near monopoly on the best-selling Wii games and most of the people who buy it are casual gamers who are happy to just play a handful of games.

I guess the 360 will rule the world.

Lmao since when does a blogger post an immature comment like “where the object of the game is to wave your hands around like a retard”

Very unprofessional ;]

This generation of consoles caused the video game industry to jump the shark. Microsoft conquers yet another tech market with their mediocre, low reliability products. Nintendo makes a long over due comeback, but the catch is it’s with a degenerating console and the greatest marketing campaign ever conceived. Sony produces the most advanced well rounded diverse electronic ever created but consumers rebel over its price, Sony listens to the consumers and does what it can to offer something cheaper only to end up with a stripped down version of a once great piece of technology… and consumers continue to b-i-t-c-h about the dropped features (consumers are the greedy ones here). PC gaming is being left in the dust so once PC exclusive developers and gamers are coming over to video games causing an over abundance of linear genres such as FPS. For whatever reason online play is becoming the primary additional feature of games although it has the least value and longevity of any gaming feature since within two years no one will ever be playing that game online anymore.

Great logic there, Vince– Devs can make more money by creating wii games… but they dont want us to look like retards so they will stay with the PS3. I dont think that’s going to be the case.

“Sure, you can probably crank out a Wii game way quicker than a PS3 title. But then we’ll just be stuck with a bunch of sucky games with crappy graphics where the object of the game is to wave your hands around like a retard.”

Agree 100%.

The preceding “news” story was a paid announcement by Microsoft Corporation.
