i was dissing the wii a few weeks ago but now i might buy one cos of the games that are comming out on it
Console junkies?
Don't know what I'm going do about the next gen consoles just yet. I don't really have the money (being a very poor student at the minute), and I don't want to buy the wrong thing. I think I'll give them all a chance to settle down and buy which one seems to be the best for me.
I have a strong feeling it's going to be the PS3, since I believe Sony's machines have been much better than anything else that's tried to contend them (X-Box, N64, Dreamcast, Saturn, GC etc..). If I can't decide between them, I'll get my brother to buy one of them as well so I don't miss out too much :P
*thinks of the South Park episode where Cartman waits for the Wii release*
PS3 SUCKS!
Want to know why? It's just an overpriced thing that is inferior to the x360.
Is it fast? Sure it is. Very fast game play without lag.
Now isn't that a good thing? Not at all?
Why isn't it a good thing? Well they are using and under clocked nVidia 7900 GPU for the computer. Sure that GPU is fast but it can't handle FSAA (removes jaggered edges) while rendering HDR (very nice lighting effects). Where as the x360 uses an ATi R500. Which on it's own is faster then the x1900/1950. Which that GPU can handle FSAA with HDR (which does slow things down). So how does the PS3 handles this hurdle? Simple. The PS3 doesn't support FSAA which is such a big let down. As for me. FSAA is more important then HDR. As it's a better visual experience then HDR. So sure it's fast. Only reason it's fast is because of the fact it's doesn't use FSAA.
What else is wrong with it? It's loud. And I mean loud. I thought the x360 was loud but the PS3 is two to three times louder. Which is really annoying as it will drown out the game when you don't have the volume loud.
Wow is there anything else wrong? The OS isn't nicely layed out. Looks nice but the stuff isn't nicely layed out. Nothing compared to how nice and easy layed out the x360 OS is done.
Isn't there anything good about it? The controller is nice. It's a PS2 controller a tad bit wider and the feel is a little nicer. Not as nice as the x360 though in my opion. Also the L2 and R2 button are replaced with small triggers. Which is a nice addition and I just love. BUT there is a slight problem with the controller. The vibration has been removed. Which is a big downer though. Also the larger HDD is a great thing and the look of the system is just sick. Looks so much better then the x360 or Wii.
NoPeace - out
Well it's Xbox 360 for me! NoPeace wasn't exagerating on how loud it is either. I have 3 120mm fans and 2 80mm fans on my computer and it's louder than my computer. Enough said.
Save your money. Buy an Xbox 360. I'll play MGS4 at a friend's house...or rent the console for a week from Blockbuster or something.
Wow, thanks NoPeace for that info. Probably gonna get a 360 now. Friend is getting a ps3 for christmas, so can just go over there and play it if I ever want to. Also don't like the fact that you can't share games on the ps3. Thats a real bitch.
Why can't you share games on the PS3? It's just a false rumor that the games are locked to the console. If that's the case it'll hurt many companies like Blockbuster and GameStop. Who are all about the ablity to reuse old games eiteher by renting or selling.
NoPeace - out
Some doods have been waiting outside the Best Buy here for like three days, and I mean a big line of people..... Wish I had that kind of cash to purchase it.. Well, not really, because the only games that I would like to play *atm* don't come out till the end of NEXT year *in theory*
I'll stick to playing WoW :p
I may get the Wii after I try it in a walmart or best buy haha. ps3 game I want is MGS4 and maybe the FF games depending if their still the same old turn based (the ff12 turn based is ok but the others where you can move your own guy and wait in line is boring). I'm mainly waiting for these systems to be out for like 1-2 months to make sure there isnt no recall because of bugs.
