Playstation 3 VS Wii
 

That's so funny. I actually had no plan to get a new game system (I can count the games I play on my PS2 on one hand), but the Wii does look like fun. Who gives a crap if it's not in HD. Plus, Disney set up a team of game designers exclusively for the Wii...

Wait, what did that video have to do with the PS3?

Funny ad.

I have no intention of bying either a PS3 (my PS2 gets about 10 hours of use per year) but must say that what I've seen of the Wii isn't particularly appealing. Especially as people realize that fully simulating movements isn't necessary and just small movements have the same effect.

B'ah. I know I giggled when I ko'd someone on the boxing game, put my hands up in victory only to see my little dude on the screen do the same. That right there was worth something (well, in my case, worth a visit to the in-laws and a free dinner for me...but cool none the less).

Hot damn...I swear, I stopped listening half way through.

I don't play video games, never have. The Wii concept (using full body movements even if unnecessary) is the only one I have found even remotely appealing.

Screen play does nothing for me. If you combine it with real play, you have something there (in my admittedly very unique opinion).

Thats a great ad..it came out shortly after the first virals a couple months ago. A great play on the "Get a Mac" ones. I also love the comic strip Mousepod posted. I am an avid Penny Arcade fan. I plan to get a Wii when they are more readily available. I don't need to wait in line or spend outrageous amount of money to have it now.

(Anyway I am currently addicted to Guitar Hero for the Playstation 2)

I didn't view/read your link {sorry zapppop} 'cause I was more interested in the replies. :D {my life is a Cliff Notes edition...}

Ah...I watched my son and friends play the boxing game, it looked like they were having fun. I didn't realize smaller movements could get the same effect.

I like to see them playing games where they can move around {eye toy? and DDR} and I like that. I also like watching play games that make them think.

Alex, 10 hours??? Wow, I won't even say how many hours our systems build up....

Guitar Hero is awesome.
