Midterm Report Card: Xbox 360, Wii, and PS3

I like the article, So basically for Sony it comes down to games.

F'n Sony hurry the f*ck up. I like the Few games that are out there but I need at least 1 Above-average title a month and 1 Awesome title to come out at least every 2. So giddy up and hurry up.

I think all 3 consoles should get an "A" for different reasons!
XBOX 360 - for it's large selection of good software and XBOX Live
PS3 - for it's Blue Ray and future potential (including upcoming games)
Wii - for it's inovation and cheap price point

With all three systems, there are a lot of different reasons to purchase them all - but, that's just my opinion;)

I agree with most of what they wrote.
I don't understand why they don't mention the fact that the 360 breaks so easy. For me that would make the grade go from A- to at lest a B.

When they fix the console so it doesn't break and doesn't sound like a jet engine we can talk about an A+.

Right now I agree with the fact that the PS3 is a B-.
At Xmas time it will be an A (with the games out and the price-cut I'm sure they will do)
If and when they add TV/Movie streaming/download we can talk about an A+.

Why is the Wii listed at $349?

I have nothing against Nintendo,but I've said it before and I will say it again.... The systems success is based on price point and media hype. The games are lackluster, the controller is gimmicky. Playing this only makes me want to go home and play Guitar Hero 2. If you have a slight tremor your screwed on the Wii.

Wii's time in the sun is limited, and here's why. There is not a single kid out there that after seeing a PS3 in action or a 360, whether they already have a Wii or not, that will not be crying for one of those two systems come Christmas.

The Wii is a consolation prize.

For those of us that have played the Wii and owned at least one other system, this is indisputably the case. After we've played the Wii we're all like "well that's kinda cool, but thank god I have a stunner system at home!"

What makes people think that the 360 will stop having great new games to play? What makes people think that new games for the PS3 justifies $600+? Remember people these systems are expensive to the casual gamer. We can't buy into these ratings until Sony and MS lower the price below $200 then we will finally see what system people like better. Until then these articles are pure flame bait.

But at least it wasn't biased. I think this article is one of the first ones in a long time that was pretty much on the money.

PS3 is coming up, and its going to be a tuff battle, because all three systems have there system sellers, and strategies to ensure they will not go down as dismal failures this gen.

GAME ON
