Well Wii.

PS3 graphics not as good as 360, plus compared to the Wii and 360, PS3 has hardly
no good...or for that matter any exclusive games on its console at all. Also its
controller has only 1:50th the function of the Wii Wii-mote.

Also Nintendo has a better dedicated online service then the 360, while both are free.
Nintendo just has more better games online. Its also much..MUCH cheaper.

well, i guess satman is overexcergating (spelling?) a bit. but i'd never choose a playstation over a wii or xbox. i dislike those things for...the fun of disliking them and cause they have crappy controllers. the wii has muc greater potential than any of the oter consoles, it's just that no one really tries think of it as anything more than a party game console :banghead: It could be fine to play an RTS since the wii-mote can function somewhat like a mouse. and an mmo doesn't seem that hard to do either...(and don't start about limited abilities of the wifi connection)

I can't really answer to this poll cos I have wii and im going to get ps3 soon. I love wii and im sure im going to like ps3 too. Wii and ps3 are completely different type of consoles so it's hard to compare them.

satman83 i dont know where u got ur info but ps3 has the best overall performance and graphics of the 3 consoles. it is the strongest console comparing it to the other 2 but i have to admit that the wii is the most original of the 3. comparing the games, wii stuck with the old games and just improving them like mario etc. Wii is alot of fun to play on but if you go for high quality gaming i recomand the playstation 3. I played alot of games on ps3, wii and xbox360 but i bought a ps3 myself because i go for the best performance and quality. Xbox360 has the best online gaming because its more populair than the other two but you have to pay for it. On ps3 you can play nearly every game that you can also play on the xbox but then for free. wii has a very diverse selection of online functions like buying old nes, sega or other old console games with wii points(that you have to buy) which is alot of fun.

my vote goes to ps3

Ps3 is the most powerfull console of those three. You should realixe it by only looking at the parts they are made of. And the ps3 games out now doesn't use the whole capability of ps3 so we can just wait for better looking games for ps3. And if you like a online gaming wii is NOT the good choice for you. There are hardly any playable online games for wii (expect CoD4 and 5 which you can buy for 360 and ps3 too).

There are only 3 good reasons to buy a wii:
1) If you like The Legend of Zelda, Mario or Metroid Prime (I have 'em all :P )
2) If you like oldschool games.
3) If you like partygames and like to play with your friends.

I like wii a lot and Im not saying that it is bad decission to buy it but imo satman is wrong at here.

It doesn't matter if the games aren't using the full capability of the PS3. Developers are developing games for xbox 360 then porting them to PS3. That is why currently the xbox 360 has better graphics than the PS3. Either way, PS3 > Wii.

Ya you might be rigth. But you realize that ps3 is more powerfull than xbox360 at least in theory.

Still I think that ps3 will overcome xbox360 in a year or so.

You do realise that you are talking rubbish now dont you? :roll: For one the
Wii has more games online then the PS3 and a MUCH better online service then the
PS3 home server/service...also CoD4 and 5 the only good Wii games online??? :D
You know CoD4 never came out on the Wii, and like i said before the Wii has more
online games then the PS3.

I mean dont get me wrong i know that the PS3 has the potentcial to become a brilliant
console, but as for right now...its games DO NOT look as good as the 360 and it
has LESS online games then the Wii.

Why not both?

Well um to be honest with everyone here, I worked at an electronics store and after looking at all the library of games, the only good games come from Nintendo themselves.... Games that are not first party are really like crappy :S They all just base themselves on the Wii's gimmicks. Don't get me wrong I love my Wii but its only Nintendo games that make it worth while, other companies just pump out crap for the Wii. The only non Nintendo game that got me really pumped to play my Wii again was Tatsunoko vs Capcom but I aint gonna mod my Wii (Japanese release only :( )

Now the PS3 on the other hand is kinda the opposite. Except for Gran Turismo I hate Sony made games :s But the reason I want to get one is for Street Fighter 4, and Sonic Unleashed (difference between Wii and PS3 is friggin amazing, don't get Wii version!!!!! )

Yes I realize that but the reason its that way is because its easier and cheaper to make a game for one platform then port it to another. Right now they do it on the xbox because it's the most economically logic way for them to do it. In a year nothing will change, it's not like developers are waiting to understand the workings of the PS3.

That's failboat because some games are better on certain consoles, especially when you're comparing a controller to a stick - let alone all the other stuff.
