Tomorrow is the big day I will have new sallary. I got one in the back of the shop for me, together with Zelda, remote + Wii play and a nun-chuck. Lalalala. :D I can't wait, one more night of sleep. :D

Lucky :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I haven't decided whether or not I am going to get one as soon as I can, which will be sometime in January, or if I should wait for the different coloured systems and price drop that is expected in March.

Ooh, forgot there'd be different color systems... what colors?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And does the price drop also drop Wii Sports from the package?

Red, Green, Black, and Grey. I'm not sure if Wii Sports will be dropped, I hope not.

One word!: Halo....

 

 

 

Well not really Halo, more Halo 2 and even more Halo 3, and Halo wars, and Gears of War....best games...ever...even if Halo 3 and Halo Wars aren't out yet.

You are now dead, after the tone please press 3....BEEEP

This is what it comes down to: The wii is more fun. Don't deny it, this is the freshest gaming experience since dual analog sticks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The 360 has better graphics. Period. The wii won't be able to go past it's graphical limitations.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I own both, and I pick the wii. The only reason that the 360 has better games is because it's been out for more than a year. The Wii's been out for 1 month.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And for everyone that thinks you'll faint from the amount of motion involved with the wii, you won't. Heck, I'm playing through call of duty 3, and my movements are about as tiring as writing down a 1 page essay.

...and the only popular game that is ONLY for X Box is Halo...

 

 

 

Apparently you've never heard of Gears of War...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On a note of graphics, I was in Best Buy checking buying some 360 controllers and I walked over to the Wii games and looked at this one:

I looked at the screenshots on the back and it seriously looked like peak PS1 graphics. Maybe it was the lighting in the store, I'm not sure, but in thta picture it looked absolutely terrible. I mean, I know graphics don't make the game but no use flailing your limbs about you to drive a 3-pixel car.

sorry bros i'm not mexican

The games just came out.... you can't expect them to have eye popping graphics. Nintendo could have easily just gone and made a ridiculously(sp?) overpriced system with powerful graphics, but they chose innovation. If all the companies just kept on making new systems with olnly a graphical update each time, then we'd hit a point where the graphics couldn't get better, and those companies would be forced to make something new or die off.

^^ Just to be fair, when the original xbox came out with Halo, it DID have eye-opening graphics at launch, as with the 360 and Ghost Recon 3 (yeah they were 1st/3rd person shooters, but so what).

Halo was being created even before the Xbox by Bungie. It was originally supposed to be mac/pc exclusive, then MS bought them. That wasn't actually expected to be an Xbox game.

I'd personally choose the Wii just because its something different, Xbox 360 as well as the PS3 haven't really done anything new, just going from the same angle as they always have, Nintendo on the other hand seems to be experimenting with new ways to play and I think they have something good going here, I mean the DS was a success because it was something new and now they have these motion sensor controllers which seem like a lot of fun, and even if you don't like the new controllers they have some that are designed like the older ones so its really got something for everyone.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The majority of Xbox's popularity was with Halo and thats pretty much the main reason anyone got them, now they have a new game, Gears of War which seems to be the same idea, they seem to base the Xbox360's fame on 1 or 2 games and the others arn't really going to be special because either they are going to be on all the other systems, or they are just going to be made like every other game of its type. Plus, I may be mistaken, but I heard the Xbox360 won't play regular Xbox games while the Wii can play Gamecube games as well as download games from the original Nintendo, Super Nintendo and Nintendo64.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Wii has a clear advantage to the Xbox360 as well as the PS3.

+1. As I've said, if they just keep making new machines with graphics updates, eventually they won't have anything to update anymore, the graphics will become so lifelike.

I have a 360 (well, it's my brothers but you know..) and I don't really want a Wii. I think it would be great for when you have friends over and such. I like getting into a game but not to the level the Wii takes it to. I'll stick with the 360. The Wii might be a little too extreme for me.

I don't see any grammar mistakes...

Playing Wii Sports can be workout.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On topic though, you want a new way to play games with graphics that arent the best, but still quite adequte, get a Wii or if you want OMGWTFBBQ graphics and a bunch of games that seem to be the same and have been done time and time again, get a 360/PS3.

I'm not seeing any issues. Except for your own criticism. You spelled grammar wrong. That's why I love how it's spelled. People try to criticize grammar and end up spelling the word wrong.

 

 

 

Here's a new one about the wii forecast channel. Not going to put the tags because of the language: http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2006/20061220.jpg
