Never tried the wii's one - and I never intend to because it costs 5€, the 360 has no web browser.

Sry if I usedan incorrect term. But I think you should know what I mean.
Wii has Opera, PS3 has w.e. and 360 has one too.

1. I do once in awhile. But I don't think anyone really uses it full time.

2. I do. I think it's a fun fact.

Maybe the computer is busy and you just need to look something up really quick?

you pay to download the browser itself, not every time you want to use it. Unless of course you had a Wii from the beginning and Nintendo made it a free download for the first 6 months. :)

Wii has older version of flash and a lot of websites do not perform properly. PS3 has newer version of flash and is great for streaming videos.

You CAN use a browser on the 360, the media centre one, but it is really poor to be honest, plus it HAS to be connected to the internet on the computer which is poor. I pick the wii, for wiimote.

360, because it realizes that if you're using a console online, you probably have a computer. =P Not to mention the Wii and the PSP both have really slow browsers. =P

Still, is it so hard to just walk over to your PC? Or have a laptop nearby?

That's very true :P But it is still handy enough! Especially if your computer is broke or is in use.

The PS3's browser is great if you just want some quick info but dont feel like booting your computer up and waiting for crap to load. It's also great for streaming online videos and watching them on your TV.

I do use the PS3 browser every now and then. It's not as good as on the PC, but it's more convenient than going upstairs, turn on the PC, and wait for Windows to start up when i just need to look up something quickly.

PS3 by a mile. Its not a fast as a PC based browser, but its fully functional.

You can stream video, surf sites, play flash games, whatever... I downloaded most of my themes directly from the PS3 browser. Plug in a USB kb and mouse and your all set. I use it all the time while my wife is on the PC.

There is also a new feature that adds an internet seach option to the launch menu for all your games. The way it works for example is, you have RE5 in your BD drive, you hit tringle, select internet search, and it opens the browser in a window and does a google search on RE5. Its handy for looking up hits, cheats, forums, or just info on a game on the fly, right from your sofa.

The Wii's is the easiest to use but the PS3's is more feature rich.

Oh, and the 360 doesn't have a browser...

Umm... Wii's was pretty nifty, is easier to use, but lacks features compared to the PS3's that gets updated where the Wii one doesn't or hasn't been since it launched out of beta. 360's is fantastic though, it lets me search XBLM, XBLA games, Xbox Originals, and umm... Oh XBL stuff. Yep.... Love that freedom... (sarcasm if you didn't know )

not true. You can use Youtube and playing some games is in fact better on the Wii. While I may not care for the Wii browser myself, there is something to be said about playing Duck Hunt and using the Wiimote as the gun instead of the mouse. :)

not shocking that you wouldn't know the wii has a browser, and that it generally performs and runs better than the PS3 browser for most things judging by your sig linked assessment of the console :)

why would anyone want to surf the net on a console. seriously,.,, Those features barely get used I am sure of it.
