I would say Microsoft has finally won me over my loyalty to Sony.  Although when Metal Gear Solid 4 comes out on PS3, I will have to seriously reconsider since that series runs over the competition on any system of all time.

Solid Snake could easily infiltrate and destroy any Spartans in Halo.

I have been Sony Loyal ever since the original Playstation. I have had a PS2 and now a PS3.  I LOVE it. The graphics are unbelievable, I only play NCAA football, but I can play online for free, and the Blu-ray movies are astonishing.

Now that being said my boys have a Wii. I play games with them from time to time and it will wear you out.  This fall they are coming out with Wii Fit, and exercise program using the Wii system.  They are reporting that a guy in China lost 30 pounds in two months working out to the program.  After playing the Olympics game I believe that it could happen.

I have not got the Playstation 3 but i have seen the graphics and gameplay. The Playstation 3 is like an upgraded Playstation 2. I have the playstation 2.

God bless,

PS3 Is so much more than just an upgrade of the PS2.  It's a whole new world.

X box 360 for probably one reason   The PS3 games never came out until way late

The box had a year headstart     can you catch up after that?

System link rainbow 6 and gears of war   with a group of mates playing campaign is just out there

With the crashes the box have had    didn't help there case     but PS3  were to slow off the mark

The cost of it was another factor

Most gamers just wanted the machine at a low cost     If you didn't have a high def TV then there was another cost   so add the two up   xbox 360 again comes out on top

Sony PS3 is a better console  Blue ray player etc

But its more than past sales    to stay on top you have to be on top

as for the wii    forget it    Graphics are a joke    and gameplay pathetic

I hired it once and never again   The bowling was good for a few hours

and better for group play of all ages    people who don't play much

The boxing was so bad    didn't keep up to my lightening fast Bruce lee punches       You did get a work out      but oh the pain of it and not just the next day.

Can hardly wait for the xbox 720

My brother has a Wii and I get excited to play every time we visit. It's great because it gives you a workout, too. It's not just sitting and exercising your fingers. Having said that, the graphics are more childishly done and I know there are other systems that have amazingly realistic graphics. He also has playstation 3 and we played an NBA game on there and it was so realistic. The sweat dripping off their foreheads as well as the folds in their jersey made you feel like you were watching a real game on tv.

I like wii because I can beat my son in bowling, and sometimes billiards, because it depends on skill, not just knowing a bunch of trick combos and other cheats, to beat your opponent.

Conversely, I find it interesting that despite all the great games that the system offers than uses the unique controller system and motion detectors, one of the most popular wii games is Super Smash Bros Brawl, which is played just like it would be on any other console. ::shrug::

Its hard to choose for me. I don't have a Wii, but plan on getting one soon, and have played it before. Xbox360 I hardly get to play, but really love games like Call of Duty 4 or some other shooters, but again never really can play this much. PS3 I played for maybe 4 minutes on a stand at Best Buy when it was released. It seems like a fun system, but Xbox360 seems like it has a similar style when it comes to games. That said, PS3 has a Blue Ray...thing in it to watch the movies even more realistically and we might buy this instead of a DVD player.

I choose Wii. Its the most most, in my opinion, and although childish graphics, has entertaing games and the Sports and now the Fit machine. It's also more innocent by not having bloody shootings and killings like the others do.

Another thing my son likes about his wii is that it has a wifi connection which it allows him not only to play on-line opponents, as well as perform other Internet functions, but to download classic games from several earlier systems, not all Nintendo's.

I like

WII - The Zelda game is sweet
PS3 - Love Godfather The Don's Edition (I am almost a Don, I am the underboss right now)
XBox 360 The games I have so far are lame (Halo 3, Marvels Ultimate Universe, Forza 2, CSI Hard Evidence (best of what I have right now is CSI))

I just played many games from the Atari 2600 on my PSP.  Activations Greatest Hits,
Plus I have Atari Classics which includes the original Defender and Defender 2

PS3 all the way.  I don't like 360 as much cause I've played it tons of times even before I got a PS3 and knew that PS3 was going to be better.  The best graphics I've ever seen and some games push the PS3 to its limits.  PSN and PS Home is awesome.  The exclusives are great, like MGS4 (can't play yet cause it's M, but I can get it when I move out of the house), Uncharted (one of THE BEST GAMES on PS3 so far, until Uncharted 2 comes out!), Warhawk, LittleBigPlanet, etc.  And last, let's not forget the project that Team ICO is coming out with and, if they are true to their 4-year game release, then this next project will come out in 2009 and it's co-op and going to be the best PS3 game ever!  Can't wait!!!  I need to try some add-ons for some of my PS3 games, but I gotta get a PSN card first, which I will hopefully do tomorrow.

I support Nintendo mostly, and I think Wii is the best system. I didn't even like the system at first, because Nintendo ditched high-powered graphics and replaced it with motion-sensing, but there are some great games on the console and it's also very suitable for families.

And I love the downloadable games, playing Secret of Mana again like a pro

I've downloaded over a hundred dollars in virtual console games on my Wii, I'm been playing Donkey Kong Country more than any other game. This is also a very strong aspect for the Wii, being able to download past games.

MegaJedi

I agree.  And not just Nintendo games.  I have downloaded Sega, Turbografix 16, and of course Nintendo and Super Nintendo.  I love Donkey Kong Country.  And downloaded the 2 they have.

Basherbelding

The xbox 360 is probably better for value but if you want to reach the limit PS3 is probably better. I have never played on a PS3. I don't think i have even touched one.

*gasps* Deprived!  We have to get you to touch a PS3!!!


The PS3 by far has the best graphics and gameplay on consoles.  It even has motion controls, like the Wii does.  So...it's like a whole new universe, not just an upgraded PS2.  I haven't beaten some games on my PS3, but that's because I'm hooked on Bad Company online.  I'm at rank 23 and am almost General of the Army (rank 25)!  Specialist ftw.

MegaJedi

I am hooked to Animal Crossing City Folk.  Better not tell certian people as they may think I practice the occult.  Talking animal and such...lol.

There is a game almost every week/ half-week that I get hooked on and play non-stop.  The last half-week has been Bad Company, but now that I've figured how to get trophies on Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, I'm hooked on it.  Uncharted has the best original action gameplay out of all of my games.  I am also kind of hooked on Prince of Persia, but that can wait to be beaten later.

Nintendo sold Rare games...so no Banjo Kazooie or Golden Eye :(

Metal Gear...quite possibly the best video game story of all time

Easily a 10/10 on every gaming site I know.

They should still make the list as they were on the Nintendo System.  DKC 2 & 3 made the list, I think Rare made them.

We've always stuck with Nintendo. Funny, Daniel's friends have other platforms, but they all want the wii once they visit here.
