Ps3 vs Wii ad

[Greatsilverwyrm]

i win. its all opinion, it is a fact the the ps3 is more technologically advanced, thats my argument.

 

 

 

if you like a remote as a controller and games you played when you were 8, get a wii. if you want a new fancy and shiny console with new games and amazing graphics, get the ps3 \

 

 

 

Tell me how, exactly, the PS3 is "more technologically advanced", aside from the blue-ray, which we've already discussed.

[blue107]

compare graphics for one, one of the main arguments for wii is 'wii isnt about graphics, its about game play'

 

 

 

this entire topic is opinion. i enjoy more action games with newer plots and excellent game play and graphics so ill get a ps3. wii is more 'innovative' with a remote control for a remote although ps3 is taking a big risk and being innovative with blue ray. wii provides more of a classic game play with a new twist which im not too fond of(the remote for a controller),but one problem with wii for me is that it has very few new games, its mostly just continuing games from the 90s with a new plot and better game play

 

 

 

and to people saying it is 600 dollars it isnt, thats the fancy version so i will give you the specs of the ps3

Upgradable HDD - dunno, possible point..

 

Blu-Ray - No, why the hell would they? It's entirely pointless.

 

Bluetooth Controllers - Yes...

 

Built-In Flash Card Reader - Who the bloody flip cares? And how does a pointless feature make it more advanced?

 

Built-In Wi-Fi - Yes...

 

HDMI Portn - Possible point.

 

 

 

And you list "Silver logo and trim" as a point and you claim we are going off of opinion? I won't even talk about how bat-shiat farking loco that is.

 

 

 

Ironic that you cite "new games with new plots", except that all of your "action games" are just the same plots, recycled with a different characters and settings. Moreso than with other games.

 

 

 

Also, calling Wii's controller a "remote-control" is just a bit of pig-headed arrogant fanboyism more than I think is appropriate. I mean, you're not even considering the plethora of controller extensions that can increase control possibilities in ways that haven't even been dreamt up yet.

IMO Nintendo gameplay>realistic grass :oops:

[blue107]

this is like arguing with a 3 year old, no matter what you say they give you an immature response saying their opinion is the best and yours is just stupid

 

 

 

you people have the worst arguments.I ENJOY A LARGE VARIETY OF GAMES I DIDNT PLAY IN THE 90S.I DO NOT LIKE THE REMOTE CONTROL ASPECT OF IT, YOU CANNOT TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME.

 

 

 

Wii-has a weird remote thing that might take gaming to the next level, but it looks just weird if you ask me. this console goes for game play and classic games appealing toward a more younger audience,everyone can afford it

 

 

 

PS3- taking a risk with pricey blue ray which will be able to unlock larger games which means more gameplay with great graphics. has a cool tilt feature. appeals to a older audience who are looking for newer games with great quality, quite pricey though

That's exactly what your doing you [bleep] :lol:

 

 

 

They may have the same characters from games in the 90s but they're new games with a new way of playing them and I'd prefer that over some near future shooter that's exactly the same as past shooters but better graphics and sound :roll:

Here is a non-youtube version so you dont need to registor.

DAMNIT, i just registered with a false age.

 

That would probably count as above my age groupy thingy o.0

[Yoda]

taking a risk with pricey blue ray which will be able to unlock larger games which means more gameplay

 

More gameplay? LOL. The PS3 has very little exclusive titles, and many will be shared with the Wii and the 360. Bluray changes nothing (besides the price). The PS3 lost with that 'risk'.

 

 

 

The PS3 is going to be the next Gamecube. It's pretty much set to fail already, and developers are deserting it like a sinking ship, in favour of the Wii.

 

 

 

appeals to a older audience

 

I'd imagine 'older' audience (as in more mature) would prefer substance over form. That's not to say the Wii has bad graphics, because it doesn't. It outdoes the original Xbox which is pretty good. Maybe that's why the PS3 fails.

 

 

 

If you're gonna buy a PS3 for 600$ you deserve it. :)

 

 

 

You're also contradicting yourself by saying you don't want to play "GAMES YOU PLAYED IN THE 90S OMG" and in the next line admitting the Wii will be revolutionary.

[Macmaster92]

but when it comes down to it, wii is in no way technologically more advanced, that really cant be argued. the only way it can even be measured to the ps3 is by opinion

 

 

 

I completly aggree but i like the wii better because of the games. Its like when ps2, xbox, and gamcube came out i picked gamcube because i liked the games beter.(later got ps2) One example of a good game on nintendo wii is supersmash borthers brawl. I saw pics and it looks really good.

[Guest GhostRanger]

You guys do realize it's a parody, right? Nintendo would never do something that below-the-belt, unfounded, and bias.

 

 

 

Leave that to Apple.

 

 

 

 

 

It is funny though, especially since it's much less unfounded and bias than Apple's commercials. :D

 

 

 

I don't have a dictionary or thesaurus so I'm just going to assume unfounded and bias means factual and full of accurate information. :P

[blade995]

taking a risk with pricey blue ray which will be able to unlock larger games which means more gameplay

 

 

 

Just because the blueray has more space than a double layer dvd doesn't mean the game will use that space. On the Xbox360 they arn't even using all the space on the double layer dvds, which is about 9gb I believe.

 

 

 

The blueray is a giant gimick for the PS3 just for Sony to push their own format. The current generation of games can not use that much space, so why put it their in the first place?

[RebelAssassin]

more space on discs = more lazy coding, EA must be excited

[cadburys_egg]

Whereas the Wii, with it's revolutionary controls and I would consider revolutionary philosophy, not to mention better launch titles and a far lower price that actually turns a profit is only better by opinion?

 

 

 

Yes. Have you played a Wii or PS3? Thought not.

 

 

 

And how is the psp a better product than the DS? Ooh, better graphics, how coool! All the DS has is longer battery life, a marginally brighter screen (on the lite), more games, and far better gameplay.

 

Give me a DS and an iPod any day.

 

 

 

Wow, oh my - that technological advancement just blew my mind. A marginally brighter screen? Wowee.

 

More games? The DS has been out longer. Besides, PSP will soon have the ability to download full PS1 games to their memory.

 

Far better gameplay? Opinion.

 

Longer battery life? Not really. My PSP has easily lasted 7/8 hours. I've also read on countless websites and heard from friends the DS only has about 8 hours in it.

 

 

 

The PSP already has internet access and what's known as a Playstation Spot. Where downloading of new game demos and exclusive videos etc is done via the PSP to keep up-to-date. Does the DS have internet explorer access? Thought not. Will they soon? Yes, but prepare to pay extra for it.

 

 

 

When PSPs first came out, designers were not sure what PSPs could do. That's why most designers made card-based games (Metal Gear Ac!d / Prince of Persia) but now they realise what it can do, they're bringing back games as we know it (Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops).

 

 

 

Call me a fanboy if you wish. I'm not just saying they are better, i'm stating what I know, as an owner.

[How2PK]

You say we are the childish ones. But you're the one saying the remote sucks. You haven't even played it! You're judgement is based purely on it's looks, not on what it can do. Ever heard the saying "Never judge a book on it's cover"?

 

 

 

You're also making a big mistake in saying Wii is aimed at a younger audience. With the Wii gaming is aimed at a whole lot diverse public than it was before. People want FUN games, saying a game is childish because it has flashy colours is CHILDISH. You're probably like a 14 year old puber or something (sorry other 14 year olds that aren't that stupid)? And you want to act tough for not liking games with flashy colours, Mario and Peach.

 

 

 

If you actually took a look at the list with games that are going to be relased for nintendo (click here) you can see that there ARE titles which should appeal to 16 years old who want a game full of blood.

 

 

 

You're talking about the ENORMOUS risk SONY is taking with their new blu-ray added to the PS3. How about the risk Nintendo is taking coming out with a new gameplay. Something that DOES contribute to gaming, instead of a new video play system. I'm guessing Sony just rammed in the BLU-RAY player so their PRODUCT can compete with HD-DVD.

[Tigra00]

You can't argue with fanboys. They don't understand that more money + more technology doesn't = better.

 

 

 

If the PS3 was even in a "normal" price range, they'd do great, but it's double what anything else you can buy costs. Screeeew that.

[Faux]

More games? The DS has been out longer.

 

 

 

Yeah and? PSP library is still crap compared to the DS library. Not to mention those killer loading times :lol:

 

 

 

Far better gameplay? Opinion.

not yet!

 

 

 

 

 

 

this picture pretty much sums up how discussions on the wii vs ps3 go.

 

 

 

wii is better!

 

ps3 is better!

 

wii is better!

 

ps3 is better!

 

 

 

ive never seen one of these arguments end, with one person changing their mind and agreeing with the other.

 

 

 

but ill have to input my opinion also, im definently getting the wii. if the wii and ps3 were the same price, the wii would still win in a landslide for me. tilt function on the ps3 controllers? i lost the very small interest i had after they announced that. good job doing something "innovative."

[blue107]

i forgot where i said it sucked, i said i didnt like it and i thought it was weird. you people arent wrong, just ignorant \

[Diminished2b]

Neither of them are 'innovative.'

 

 

 

Motions sensors have been out for quite a while. High-end gaming machines have been out for quite a while..

 

 

 

The only thing I see here close to an innovation is a new processor architecture (PPC CELL).

 

 

 

Anyways, I'd save this argument until they've both been out for a while.

[indy500fan]

motion sensors have been out for a while, but never have been the central part of controlling most of the games on a system.

 

 

 

it may not be new technology, but that doesnt mean its not innovative.

[Stuart_G]

Innovative to you perhaps, but to the average joe, the Cell processor doesn't mean anything. Neither does Blu-Ray technology.

 

 

 

The average consumer doesn't care about how technologically advanced it is or how many teraflops the gpu can process per second. All they want are fun games that are accessible and easy to play, which is what Nintendo are doing with Wii, which is why the Wii will appeal to a wider range of people, thus giving Nintendo the upper hand in sales.
