Took the words right out of my mouth. That statement is so ignorant, I do not know whether to laugh, cry....or both.

Actually it's true.  The significant difference is the online play.  WII only has 24 MB of RAM, just like GC.

 I was talking about the TC statement about the PS2....not the Wii, lol. Anyway, If you think that the PS3 is nothing more than a "tweaked" PS2, then you are about as sharp as a spoon.

I never knew that Linux was bad. I've never used it until I installed Yellow Dog on my PS3. Its really fast and has a great interface. Kinda like a mix between Windows and Mac OS.

Overall the PS3 is the system with the most features and functionalitis.

How can you confuse the PS3 with the Wii?miss_kitt3n

I was wondering the same thing myself.

The PS3 has the blu ray and it does the same as a PS2 does. The Wii is different it's the first time that you can download old Nintendo games on it

I wouldn't want to waste nearly £500 on a console that plays DVDS. I buy them to have fun and play games. I am saying what I think a console that is mostly for games is £500 almost. I don't see it as good value and also the PS2 is probably to me the best console I ever owned and that had that could play DVDS. No change just slighty better graphics. I am not convinced, I will not waste nearly £500 on a PS3 just because of what it can do we play games on these consoles mostly.chocolate1325
