Whats a good gaming console?

[N0D5I]

The best console is no console.
PC FTW.

Also, Commodore 64, that's the next best.

You're all a bunch of dumb stuffs.

No, they're just all trying to be old-school.

I'd go with the PS3, but I might get a 360 just for Fable 2.

I say PS3

PS3 : Great for watching movies and playing the occasional game. They even have interactive movies like MGS4.

360 : Great online experience (you get what you pay for) and wide catalog of games appealing to all ages (Viva Pinata all the way up to Condemned).

Wii : eh... Cheap and simply, but not worth the $250. Control scheme is a gimmick and most games only appeal to younger audiences. You could get a more enriching experience at the local arcade with a bag of quarters.

Dreamcast was freakin' awesome for it's time.
Has anyone said that yet?

get the n64 if you can find one. shouldnt be too hard. Games are like 2-5$ at my game place too.

if you want a current generation system:

Wii: it is Okay, only if there is some game you really want for it. The whole 'motion controls' are either too sensitive or not sensitive enough. A couple finger prints and it gets completely messed up. only 4 sensitivity settings :\. Most games are full of suck. Brawl, AC:CF, and possibly one of the new sonic games if it isn't completely over-run with motion controls. Gamecube controllers are much mroe fun to play with on the wii

PS3: Expensive and the exclusive games are fail, but it is

Great for watching movies and playing the occasional game.

bold is true. You wont find yourself playing as many games on this as you would other consoles

xbox360: Ah, gotta love it. Gotta be the best. Has all the best hardcore games. If you have online the next games are mehpwn to uberpwn: Halo3, CoD5, GH:WT

the wii. its epic.


 and reactor, the wii has plenty of games appealing to adults, also, nintendo said they are going to make more hardcore games in '09.

and i dont see the deal with movies and music on a console. consoles are for GAMES, not watching movies or listening to music >:(

On the subject:  The original PlayStation was a great console, as with its sequel the PS2. Although superiority would have to go to the modern personal computer, IMO.

I prefer the Wii. It feels more original and creative.

Plus, I'm waiting for the Metroid Prime 1 and 2 ports to the Wii. WITH Wii controls.

Wii: Pretty cool games that you get bored of half an hour later. The whole joystick attachment thing is also a loving hassle. along with the sensor bar. Setting up online is also a hassle, where the forget is the PPPoE option. Wtf @ friend codes, too. Browser costs money.
Conclusion: Good for small kids, a loving hassle though.

PS3: loving huge. Good exclusives though, online is easy to set up and the wireless controller is good. Has a friend system, no restrictions as to curse words. Wtf @ no backwards compatibility though.

Xbox 360: I dunno, never had one. Menu isn't too appealing for me, and the controller is weird. Reminds me of the gamecube controller. Online costs money.

Conclusions: It's either you get a PS3 or an Xbox 360. Wii sucks.

Wow, I must have missed some great titles between Cooking Mama and Mario games because I could have sworn I didn't see any decent titles appealing to a more mature audience.

Nintendo's E3 show made it quite clear that they have little interest in the hardcore market anymore. Their presentation consisted entirely of a few crappy casual games.

As for movies and music on consoles, eh, I kinda agree with you. For the most part it really isn't a needed feature, but the PS3's Blue-Ray player adds tremendous value to the system. I consider it a bonus.

Kinda sad no one picked up on my MGS4 comment. Oh well.

I enjoy my PS3. And if I'm not mistaken, the 80gb PS3 ca play Ps2 games. I can't on my 40gb system though D:
