So basically you just cant win fang wolf. Nothing currently out is worthwhile to you it seems.

Im glad you can see the Wii for what it really is, but to say that high end gaming PC's and the 360 offer nothing but shiney is absoluteley insane!

Havnt you seen the unique gameplay of Gears Of War? The high speed thrills and spills of PGR3 or the super realistic simulation of Forza 2? What about Crysis and Halo? GRAW, Dead Rising, Lost PLanet or Crackdown? None of the latter are original in any way, but they are insane fun.

Sounds like you just dont like video games period anymore. I feel sorry for you as you are missing out on some amazing entertainment, and not just from an eye candy perspective.

You know what's not innovative at all? Xbox 360.

Don't get me wrong, I do love Microsoft. But what does the 360 bring to the table? Wireless? Online Play? We've had those for years.

360 is just the base console. It has no "WOW" to it other than it's shiny graphics.

So you are saying Gears of War, dead rising, PGR3, Forza 2, The Darkness, GRAW 2, and many others offer now wow factor at all, despite these games being widely accepted as some of the best games currently out with the best gameplay and graphics?

The 360 isnt innovative and i never claimed it was. But now that you mention it i guess those wireless controllers were innovative, its dashboard setup is quite clever and it was the first HD-ready system to be released. (that sounds like gushing, but im just stating the facts)Also it sure as hell has some power behind it and offers an amazing gaming experiance and a better online component then ANY other system, as well as having a very exciting future ahed of it with games like Halo 3 and GTA4 and Assassins Creed on the horizon.

Its not just about the graphics, the games the system has offers both great gameplay and fantastic visuals and sound, which all adds to the experiance.

Seems your just being biased for Nintendo now. What i suppose do YOU consider to have "WOW" to it then?

Never said it was a bad console. I really do want one, for when Ninja Gaiden 2, Halo 3, DMC4, and GTA4 come out.

But now we know you're a Microsoft Fanboy. Don't deny it, you've been cataloged.

So it has killer apps. The only reason for that is because it has time. Wireless? Every system has wireless controllers, they just don't push them on you. Xbox Live? So what? I don't want to pay an extra $15 a month for multiplayer I'll never use. (Wii's is free, by the way)

I will continue to deny it because its not the truth, so you can shove it up your ass. You dont know a thing about me, and just because i give my opinion on how i think one console is better than another based on facts and general knowledge and personal experiance, i am deemed a fanboy. Bullshit.

Oh and the PS3's online play is free too, but it sucks balls, just like Wii's. You get what you pay for.

Oh and the wireless thing, i was stating that the 360 was the FIRST console to add wireless controlelrs AS STANDARD, and not as an add on (provided you bought the premium pack of course).

Killer apps because of time? WTF are you talking about? The Wii has had plenty of time but no killer apps as of yet, same goes for the PS3.

Face it, the 360 is the most popular PROPER next gen/current gen system money can buy. You go to any website and ask any gamer and they will tell you it has the best games, most affordable hardware and the best online play.

Again if you like to take FACTS and then turn them into fanboyish ranting, then yes i will fully admit to being a fanboy with every fibre of my being.

Now shut up with this stupid argueing. I dont care what you have to say anymore as youve called me a fanboy one too many times and quite frankly i am sick of your ignorant accusations.

We all know the best system is the PS3 and the best game is its version of Sonic The Hedgehog, so jog off.

Fanboy...peh...look in the mirror why dontcha.

End.

I'll leave with this: You're a total fanboy, whether you like to believe it or not.

as soon as the price on wiis dips a bit ill try and get my hands on one, on topic though i read an article about a guy who cut his hand up pretty bad putting the wiimote through the glass top of a coffee table.
That tv would be some awesome abstract art now

which is a laugh and a half everytime it comes up in the news.


But I think we're forgetting the point of this thread, massive property damage caused by weed and video games. Yeah, we've all been there.

It's not so funny when it actually happens to you. Mine a few weeks ago started the "three rings of death"....I got The Muffin to fix it for me....
...which I am extremely greatful for, but in the long run might not have been such a good idea, as Microsoft just in the last week or so extended their warranty plan to 3 years...

On the other hand, the only real proble I've had with my wii is the batteries running out from playing Twilight Princess too much.

IN all honesty, it really is hard to compare Nintendo & Microsoft. it's like (forgive the overused cliche') comparing apples to oranges. Sure they're both video game companies, but they both make radically different games for different people, & have different ideals as to how games should be made & played. So there's really no point in trying to say one's better than the other because it is simply a matter of point of view.
