I find it quite ironic that the Wii's graphics are the target for ridicule when the PS3 is selling nowhere near what the Wii is. If graphics are so important, how does a logical person explain this?

It is simple, the majority has spoken with their wallets. Gameplay trumps graphics. I have ow concluded that the PS3 will not win the "console war". However, the Wii possibly can. The 360? When most games available on the PS3 are available on the cheaper console, it is only logical to conclude that the 360 wins.

The PS2 destroyed the competition. The PS3 will not.

I don't care the Wii still has subpar graphics. Therefore I'm not buying it.

Couldnt you use that exact same justification for not getting any console if you have a gaming PC? Consoles have always had poor graphics compared to the PC. That didnt stop the games on all the consoles before from being bad, now did it?

I think a lot of it may also be the more mainstream price.  The PS2 is still trouncing it's next gen competition.

What has better games is subjective. What sells more in a console war is definitive. Learn the difference.

NSync isn't a direct competitor with Jimmy Hendrix. Yeah, yeah, the Wii isn't competing with the PS3, I know. That's BS, IMO. It has a wider audience than the PS3, but its "wider audience" encompasses the PS3's audience as a subset within it. I doubt NSync and Jimmy Hendrix share a large fraction of their audiences, and I highly doubt anyone is an "exclusive" fan of one or the other (i.e. wouldn't buy the music of the other under any circumstances). Now, if you compared direct competitors, like Alienware and Thunderbox, or Dell and HP, or iPod and Zune, then that's a valid comparison.

What I have or want is not the subject. It is what sells the most that matters in a console war.

I don't think the Wii has proven that gameplay trumps graphics. a bunch of mini games do not constitute great gameplay. So far the best things about the Wii have been 2 upgraded gamecube titles, a tech demo and a title consisting of nothing but minigames...

The Wii is fun and simple to use at a cheap pricepoint.. THAT is why it is successful. It has nothing to do with superior gameplay because at this moment most of the Wii titles are subpar 3rd party shovelware.

Fun trumps everything. It's the K.I.S.S (keep it simple stupid) factor at it's best at work here.

And there you have it, a lot of people have bought the Wii. However, we don't know who will win the gen just yet. It's to early to truly predict the leader. And on another point I have to agree that gameplay does trump graphics. It's just that the Wii hasn't proved that the Wiimote makes gameplay better. It's just a different way to play games. Don't count the PS3 exclusives out just yet.

I find it quite ironic that the Wii's graphics are the target for ridicule when the PS3 is selling nowhere near what the Wii is. If graphics are so important, how does a logical person explain this?

It is simple, the majority has spoken with their wallets. Gameplay trumps graphics. I have ow concluded that the PS3 will not win the "console war". However, the Wii possibly can. The 360? When most games available on the PS3 are available on the cheaper console, it is only logical to conclude that the 360 wins.

The PS2 destroyed the competition. The PS3 will not.

And there you have it, a lot of people have bought the Wii. However, we don't know who will win the gen just yet. It's to early to truly predict the leader. And on another point I have to agree that gameplay does trump graphics. It's just that the Wii hasn't proved that the Wiimote makes gameplay better. It's just a different way to play games. Don't count the PS3 exclusives out just yet.

i dont see that helping anyone buying a 600 for 3-4 exlcisves that will not make tripple a most likey. (talking about this site)

Wasn't this the same dude that said people were jealous of a console :lol:

Yes, cows are jealous their precious powerhouse is being stomped by the Wii.

If i liked the Wii i would've bought it, no reason to get jealous of a machine, Sheep logic gets worse by every post..

I own zero current-gen systems. I am not a sheep. Generalization failed. Retort irrelevant. Post discarded.

pritty obvious you're a Wii fan, which makes you a sheep, your logic fails, post discarded.

 

Just beaucse he likes wii that makes him a sheep :?

The Wii hasn't proven itself with FPSes yet, but it's demonstrated that more traditional games can be more fun with the Wiimote. Madden 07 and Godfather, for example. Probably Scarface later this year.

Try again on the amount of exclusives and I wasn't here to advertise for the PS3. If people use this thread to choose what system to buy then they need to get out more. No, mrjarantilla. The Wiimote has proved nothing of the sort. It's innovative and different but that doesn't make it better in an overall experience.

Since when does Sales=gameplay.

All you've proven is that the Wii sells, we saw this coming, no elderly couple, middle aged woman, or toddler can resist it.

Where do I mention anything about gameplay?

And your entire post is just one big opinion, not everyone thinks the same way. All I'm saying is that it's to early to count any system out just yet.

Explain Madden 07 and Godfather getting the highest scores of the Wii, then. Not saying it AUTOMATICALLY upgrades a game's gameplay quality. Just saying, if properly implemented, a game can be made more fun.

ill have all 3 at one point anyway. so this doesnt really matter to me, haha. got a wii already, aiming for a 360 in the summer and ill get a PS3 after a significant price drop (getting a PS2 next month when i get paid). the PS3 is £425 here, but im willing to pay around £300, but i could stretch to £350 if thats all they are giving us.

it would make a huge difference to pay £300 or less though. maybe second hand in a couple of years time!

need to get a PS2 first though! haha.

There are plenty of cheap people sitting in front of SDTVs right now playing thier cheap Wii and PS2s.  When HDTV is less expensive and both the 360 and PS3 pricedrop you wont' see the mad rush to buy a Wii.  In a few years both the 360 and the PS3 will outsell the Wii by a wide margin.  The 130 Million people that bought XBOXs and PS2s wont' want to make a lateral move to a Wii with marginally better GFX.  I personally can't figure out how Nintendo convinced GC owners to make essentially a lateral move to a new console just for the controller at 2.5 the price.  Plus gouge them on a million accessories.

I own a TV that costs many times the amount of all 3 of these systems combined.  Do you think I might choose a system that will take advantage of that?

Guys, guys, if sales are the only thing that matters then why are you even buying the so-called "next-generation" systems? You should all go out and buy the PS2 instead it s sold the most consoles in the last 5 years so we should all buy it because it s selling. To hell with these "realistic" graphics and these "innovations" we all know the PS2 is the best system.

I don't care the Wii still has subpar graphics. Therefore I'm not buying it.

Obviously you've never owned a PS2, X-Box, PS1, Snes, Nes, Gameboy, or D.S., because they all had superior competition, graphically.

At this site the ratings are based on the system they are on.  The reviewers expected more out of those games on better systems.  If they released a fake Wiimote for the 360 tomorrow and it worked for madden 08 but had really bad GFX do you think the score would be high?  It wouldn't.  The reviewers don't penalize the Wii for GFX like they do to the 360 and PS3.
