Windy: I wanted too. My dad said no.

Volkov: Buh? PS3?!?! Hi! Buy a PS3 now and upgrade in 3 months for $100! Right... Plus, you gonna fork over $600 or whatever it is? X Box is not popular in the global market, at all. Almost all of the sales are in the US. Not to mention, my online play is free. Same with my DS.

If you think the remote is dumb, I sure don't see why. You haven't even tried it yet. I can't wait for it to come out.

The new X-Box is the Wii
The new PS2 is the 360
and the new Gamecube is the PS3.

Go here for some better arguements. Its another forum I belong too. But so, the last page is all you need to read.

The Wii is cheap (unlike the PS3) and doesn't seem to be crap (unlike the 360). Not that I really care, since I don't really game at all. But, really, the Wii has a big leg up - it is relatively innovative as well as affordable. Nintendo is simply taking a loss on the console and making it up with game licensing, as far as I can see... Probably better for the consumer that way.

Right...Which is Nintendo's goal right now. Consumer wins big time, draws more users later. Personally, I think it's a really good market strat.

EDIT: Speaking of the Nintendo and such...Does anyone else have a DS and Wifi? I'd like to add some friends and such. (Tetris, Animal Crossing, and Mario Kart for me) I'll PM friend codes and such.

Uh.. I was kinda joking about the PS3 Freen. Honestly I don't care. I don't have the money to by all the new gaming systems. I'm just gonna stick with my PS2 and bum playing time on the newer stuff off of friends.

And yes, I do think the remote is dumb, and the rumble pack basically makes it a vibrator. The whole deal is just way to phallic. And that last part.. just wrong... "I can't wait for it to come out"? Do you realize how that could be interpreted in comparison to what I said?

The new X-Box is the Wii
The new PS2 is the 360
and the new Gamecube is the PS3.

I don't understand that at all. But whatever. All I know is that of the stuff I've seen so far, the PS3 is the most powerful and has far superior graphics. And all you Nintendo fanboys can just shut it, I was talking facts. I really could care less about what system is what. I won't be buying any of them until I have disposable income, and that won't be for awhile, given all my other addictions that cost money. (RPG Gaming, video games, this LAN gaming place called LANLizards, Magic: The Gathering, PC stuff)

And if I do get a handheld system, it would be a PSP, cause the games are better. And the graphics are too. From what I've seen, the DS is just a Gameboy color with a touch screen and online options. (And that WAS a joke, so don't go all nutso)

:blink: No... I really don't. Hence thats what makes you all funny.

In terms of popularity, the new cool system is the Wii (Like the X Barge was :rolleyes: )

My remote pwns your "control device" anyday of the week. Now I have the "Precision Aim" ability. Which means a lot more head shots.

Right. Well you can precision aim with your Wii all you want. I'm still not gonna buy one.

LMAO.

No Freen, you're just innocent. We're not all funny.
