anyone know how the online games of wii and the multiplayer compares to 360 and ps3. I'm looking at getting a wii or a 360 and I'm really into online play. I'm leaning towards the wii because the price, so if the online play isnt too bad I think I'm gonna get it.
There are no online games yet. The first will be Pokémon Battle Revolution and Battalion Wars 2.
you mean madden and such hasnt gone online yet?
Nope.
oh shix...I didn't know that they hadnt launched that stuff yet. hmm well does anybody have any opinions on wii vs. 360 otherwise?
360 has a good library of established online titles whereas, to the best of my knowledge, the only thing that the PS3 has that's particularly good online is Resistance: Fall of Man.
If you're looking for good online games, 360 is your answer. You got call of duty, gears of war, madden 07, phantasy star universe and a few others i havent got around playing yet. Wii is really cool though and you can surf the internet, luckily i have both.
will call of duty and madden go online for wii? is it worth the extra 150 + online fees? I havent played gears of war yet, but I hear its insane.
We dont know whether or not they will go online yet. They might or they might not. But xbox live is only 5 USD a month plus a 20 dollar headset. And, gears of war is a blast online.
Xbox Live is where it's at. The games I prefer to play online and you may like playing online are Call of Duty 2/3, Saints Row, GRAW, NFS: Carbon Tony Hawks 8 and virtually any sports game.
Oh, and Gears of War online is so so so good, And with many other great online multiplayer games to come, you have to get a 360 (IMO).
I think if I can find an extra 200 bucks, then I'm going with the xbox. I just played gears of war on my cousins 360 and it was ridiculous. The only thing I didn't like was madden 07, I'm use to the ps2 controls and the 360 changed the controls up and I didn't like it.
360 is by far the best when it comes to online games. But from the sounds of it, you don't have online stuff yet. Also Xbox Live is $50 a year, while the PS3's and Wiis will be free.
Elebits has an element of online, and so does Dragon Ball Z to a much smaller extent.
In Elebits, you can create your own stages and send it to people in your address book.
In DBZ you can create a customized character, and get a password for them to send to whoever you like (in your address book or through a computer chat or whatever)
Online real-time multiplayer, Nintendo may be holding out for Pokemon, but they might let some sports games go first. There isn't a release date yet for Pokemon Wii, but the DS game doesn't come out 'till April. That's a long time to be waiting, I'm sure there will be something else before Pokemon to go online. I hear there's some baseball game with 'Big' in the title, that might be it.
