Thread: ahhhh.... PS3 vs Xbox360 vs Wii

  1. #1

    Default ahhhh.... PS3 vs Xbox360 vs Wii

    There's probably another thread similar to this one but I'm so tempted to make one again.

    Right well, I still couldn't decide which one to buy It's very hard to choose... I'd like to buy all but that will be so expensive

    PS3
    ----

    I'd like get it to play FF13 and others games. There's some special deal, for example... a 1200 dpi plasma TV + PS3 all just for 2200$ which is a nice deal! Because I need to replace my own TV as well. PS3 is kind of expensive, though. I think PS3 lets you make great things with PS3 easily, like you can code your own game with C++ inside.

    Xbox360
    --------

    Even if FF13 will be available on Xbox360, I'd love to get it and there are more xbox360 games than PS3 at the moment. I think Xbox360 is more integrable with Microsoft Windows (both of them are under the same company) than PS3 and Wii which can bring more many great things for 360.

    The graphics of PS3 and Xbox360 look kind of the same, I don't know which one is better for graphics. Very realistic material makes any game more fun.

    A bit confusing, the price of xbox360 is so close to Wii, yet xbox360 has more powerful harddrive stuff, right? and PS3 costs wayyy more. Hmm, dunno why.

    Wii
    ----

    What can I say? Also, I'd like to play Super Smash Bros Brawl on it. I have gamecube and I really have enjoyed playing gamecube games... such as bros melee, sonic and mario. The graphics of wii seem great. I have an action replay cheat device which costed me 30$, it works great with game cube and it can work with Wii as well.

    I have played all 3 on many occasions and you get bored of the Wii very fast so scratch that out.

    PS3 is best for popular games to buy (which is the whole damn point of a console )

    Xbox is best for popular games as well but not as many but they're all good games.

    So out of those 2 you should make your choice.

    All XBox 360's are defective, If I were you and I decided on Micro$soft, I would wait a while.

    Bottom line you gotta go where the top rpg's are, if you play rpg's only, like I do. PS 3 and Wii are a year behind Xbox 360, since they came out later, so we wont' know until a year from now how good and numerous the rpg's there will be.

    Xbox 360 is releasing a ton of ultimate rpg's now. Wii only has some, some are good...

    The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess(Great)
    Super Paper Mario(Great)
    Pokemon battle revolution(ok)
    Alien Syndrome(ok)
    upcoming Fire Emblem
    upcoming Dragon quest swords
    upcoming Final Fantasy crystal chronicles 2

    PS 3 so far upcoming only has White Knight Story, FF XIII, FF V XIII, and Disgaea 3 as far as great rpg's go, there may be more though. I've got Xbox 360(for Blue Dragon, although I ended up deciding to not get Blue Dragon, I'll get other rpg's instead for this system). I'll get PS 3 next fall when FF XIII comes out. I may get Wii in the spring for Zelda and Mario, if I have money and time and there aren't other ultimate console rpg's coming out. On the other hand I could be some top older games I haven't beaten yet in the upcoming spring(FF 8, FF 9, FF X-2, Chrono Cross, Vagrant Story, Tactics Ogre, Xenogears, etc).

    I recommend Xbox 360 and PS 3 so far, but Wii has Zelda, get all three! But you make the call.
    Recently beaten: Alundra 1, Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core
    Currently playing: Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift, Final Fantasy I
    Will play next: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Mass Effect, Fallout 3(???)

    Despite the fact that I must now ship my 360 back to repair the Red Ring of Death(tm), I still say the 360 is the best of the three. It's got lots of good games, awesome online services (including online play), and excellent graphics and sound. Wii is second, with its innovative controls and high fun factor, though it could do with more good games and with an online play feature.

    PS3 is at the bottom of my list, despite being (from my understanding) the console with the most raw power. It's far too expensive, even after the price drop, there are few good games for it, and there basically doesn't seem to be that much compelling about it. Maybe that'll change within the next year, but I don't think any game system is worth sinking more than $400 into for just the console.

    I've chosen the 360 because I'm looking forward to Mass Effect and Too Human.

    Mass Effect, Bioshock, Halo 3, Assassin's Creed, Mass Effect, Alan Wake, Too Human, Beautiful Katamari, Dead Rising, Mass Effect, Perfect Dark Zero, Dynasty Warriors 6, Mass Effect, Fable 2, Fallout 3, Gears of War, Omikron 2, Mass Effect, GTA IV, Soul Caliber 4, and some others I'm surely forgetting? (Oh, and did I mention Mass Effect?)

    I think the answer, at least for now, is fairly clear.

    Although I do want and plan to get a Wii, primarily for NiGHTS and SSBB.

    My advice would be to see which games you want to play. for me, the 360 is best. The PS3 is just too expensive for my budget and I love the rumble feature in the controller.
    But the bottom line is which games do you want to play?

    The Wii's pretty good, but it only recently has started to get some good games, so you wouldn't have many game genres to choose from once you got one.

    Dunno which is the "best", but that doesn't really matter if the games suck. I'll probably buy PS3 first, then maybe a Wii in the distant future and I'll probably never buy an xbox. I just don't like most xbox games.

    PS3 is good for me because it has many of the series I like, mainly Resident Evil, GTA, Silent Hill and Final Fantasy. I also love Zelda and some Mario games, so I may have to hog my sister's wii every now and then. But yeah, my PS2 is close to broken, so I'm gonna need a new PS anyway and buying a new PS2 seems like a waste of money when I'm gonna buy a PS3 eventually anyway.

    360 is still miles ahead of the competition now in my opinion. But the PS3 line up is more impressive, we've got GT5, Tekken 6, MGS4, FFXIII, White Knight Story, Metal Gear Online, Tekken 5 Dark Ressurection Online, Uncharted : Drakes Fortune, Littlebigplanet and even Killzone 2 dare I say, that game makes me all giddy.

    360 has a good line up but its exclusives arent as impressive. As for the Wii, Im only really going to give it NiGHTS, if I was going to buy a Wii It would solely be for that game, which sounds stupid....which is why I probably wont do it.

    PS3 is too expensive and working with Xbox 360s every day has made me realize just how likely they are to break. When/if the PS3 is a reasonable price and when/if they fix the 360, I'd still have to wait a while to see what happens with exclusive games before deciding between those two. The PS3 seems to be taking it's time getting any decent games besides Virtua Fighter, and the 360 seems to be mostly shooters and the like, though both have/are getting games I'd actually want to play.

    I have a Wii already, though, and I love it. And miss it. I don't have a tv. D:

    Yeah, I have seen blue dragon and it seems awesome. The new GTA game and FF13 looks sooo awesome too... sigh but I really dunno.

    I'm thinking, yeah. I should buy 2 consoles when I make money, but then I don't know which console to buy first, the SSBB game is going to be released here in next year around spring for europe =/ and FF13 should be released in around 2008/winter maybe =/ Dunno about the new GTA game

    brings me back to the old console wars. PS vs. 64, THAT was huge. Systems today don't have much going for them. There's good games on all of them already but not THAT good - enough to make me buy it.

    I'm waiting for FFXIII to come out, then i'll get PS3, hopefully MGS4 and GTA4 will already be out by then. Then I might actually pick up XI to play on PS3. Not to mention all the older titles on higher resolution, if i get an HDTV.
