ps3 or 360?
-
I really like the 360 right now, there seems to be an ever increasing amount of games for it that I am interested in. I do think that I will purchase a ps3 at some point, but it's going to have to be when there are more games and/or the price goes down a bit. I'll definately have both at some point because it seemed like the ps2 had certain genres of games that it excelled at (rpgs, strategy, driving) and so did the Xbox (action, fps, sports) so I think the ps3/360 situation might be the same. What I am really interested in is the Wii. I already know pretty much what sort of games I can expect from the other two systems, just with prettier graphics. I have no idea what sort of stuff to expect from the Wii. Nintendo has a knack for creative stuff. We'll see.

The 360 does get hot but it helps cooling if you set it vertically. Every 360 that I have herd of having a "melt down" was sitting horizontally. -
^^He was talking about the PS3 I think.

After some reading I found out that most of the xbox 360 hardware has more power than the ps3's hardware. I also found a article from a game designer explaining which console he prefers and why.

The only thing in the ps3 that still has my attention is the bluray player but ho well I guess.

360 > Wii > PS3 ??

I don't have space to sit the thing vertically, otherwise it will fall off my entertainment system.

I think they fixed that issue...also it shouldn't matter as much if there is space underneath the console. I'm willing to bet the overheating was because people set them horizontal on carpet. The carpet just soaked up the heat and didn't let it disipate and after awhile it just went "melt melt" -

As of right now in my honest opinion:
Wii > 360 > PS3.....and this is based on the fun aspect of it all.

I suppose it depends on whether or not you prefer the interactivity the Wii offers or the graphics. Obviously someone who doesn't care as much for the graphics would definitely go for the Wii whereas someone like me who doesn't care so much for the Wii controller prefers something like the PS3 or 360 since the graphics/performance are better. A better way to put it might be Wii=360>PS3 how about that?

Look back when the xbox first came out and people complained on the size factor of those controllers. Now look how huge Xbox is compared back then when people based their first opinions on first impressions. A few hours of the wii and you are not going to wanna put the controllers down.....but you may have to due to you not using your arms in that way and just pushing buttons.
