Oh, and by the way, that Wii bit wasn't to be taken seriously, lol. I've never actually even played it. Looks like it'd be fun at a party or whatever, but I'd rather just have a 360/PS3 for myself.

Thats why it is fun. The wii isn't meant to be played by yourself that much, its about looking like a retard playing it

I got my kids a Wii and I have to admit that I like it also. Twilight Princess was a pretty damn good game. For the most part its more of a novelty for me. I still play my 360 more. I am actually planning on getting Force Unleashed for both systems. The 360 is a more in depth game experience where the Wii has a special team working to perfect the motion sensing. The buzz says that the Lightsabre will track along with the Wii control. A slice to the right and up with the control will track that way. I am really looking forward to seeing how well it works out.

I got the red ring of death a couple of weeks ago. They replaced it in two weeks or so, and they paid for the shipping so I don't have any complaints. I prefer the 360 mainly because I like more of the 360 specific games than ps3 specific games, plus I like the 360 controller better.

I have all three, and personally i like either the wii or 360. Ps3 is just, i cant even explain it, i have no desire to play it. and all the games that are worth buying for ps3 come out for 360 anyways (i know not all 90% or so). I have never heard of a 360 failing or what ever i know a lot of people with them and nobody has any problems. I also prefer xbox to ps2 , i just seems sony products in my house gather dust.

The failure is about 30%. It sucks, but its true. You get 3 red lights that flash and all you can do is turn it off and call Microsoft for repair. The good thing is that Microsoft voluntarily extended the original 1 year warranty to 3 years for hardware failures. Its a pain in the ass but if you call MS and tell them what happened they will send you a box to ship it back to them in. They say its about a 2-3 month turn around, but every one I know of that went in for repair was back in under a month. All is done at no cost and you get Live gold for I think 3 months for the hassle. A lot of people are saying that it isn't enough but when you consider Sony's support of the laser issue with PS2, I think MS is being pretty fair.
My Wii started having disk read errors after about 3 months so I called Nintendo about it. They offered to have me send it in for repair for free. I explained to them that the repair would take to long and we wouldn't have it back in time for Christmas so they threw out a few more options. Their repair center was about 200 miles from me and they could repair it in a couple hours. We headed up the Saturday before Christmas. I walked in to the repair center and told them what was going on, they looked up my name, took my Wii into a back room and came back out about 30 minutes later. They handed me a brand new Wii with all my saved games transfered, moved my shop account over so I could download everything again for free and gave me 3000 Wii points for free. Thats what I call support. Sure I could have taken it back to the store, but they were out of stock and I wouldn't have gotten my info transfered. The only thing that I think would have made it better would have been a tour of the VIP museum.

It seems to me that the only problem that people have with the PS3 is that it doesn't have many good games, so when it does get good games, which it will, the Xbox 360 will finally be seen as the piece of **** it is.

Now it's time for all the whiny 360 fanboys to make a million posts about how they think this is wrong.

sweet_nothing · 03-11-2008, 09:15 PM

Xbox live! Some of those games will be on the Xbox why do think Devil May Cry 4 was?

Doesn't matter. You're still a PS3 fanboy, thats the worst kind.

PS3 seems more marketed as a full home entertainment setup. If I want that, I'll get a PS3. I want to play games, so I have a 360. I'm not saying that PS3 is all that bad, I just don't like it. I didn't like it when I had it and I don't think thats gonna change.
