| This time, the only console I bought was a Wii, simply because both the PS3 and X360 were trying to throw everything including the kitchen sink into their systems and don't recognize that a lot of people want a GAME SYSTEM, not a full entertainment center. Add to that the fact that neither the PS3 nor the X360 have had any decent games and most of the games they were putting out looked and acted like games on their old systems.
I was skeptical of the Wii controllers (and I still hate the damn name, they should have stayed with the Revolution), but in practice they work very well and if you still like the Gamecube remotes, you can use those instead. The best part about the Wii is that they have been putting out a lot of good games and continue to do so across all genre lines. Sure, I may not care about fitness games, but if you did, you couldn't find them on any other system.
People get too worked up over eye candy frankly, what difference does it make if the game looks perfectly real? It's a GAME! It's all about the gameplay which frankly sucks on most of the PS3/X360 games, that is if you can stop your X360 from bursting into flames. |
