Nice one Kenny.
Before seeing this vid. I would have taken the PS3 over the Wii, but after watching this...... ;D

I've seen this a long time ago, but I personally think its a great comparison. PS3 stinks, simple as that. ;) :laugh:

PS3 does not stink. The content currently available is sub-par.

So what does a 360 look like?

I have to agree with Blackride. The PS3 simply hasn't realised it's full potential yet. Next year should see some improvement and then we will see what it can offer us. Until then I think it's a little unfair to say it stinks.

Sorry, hasty thing to say....how about: doesn't compete right now. Which you can't deny that. The fact that I can go out to Target and pick up a PS3 and not a Wii/360 says a lot.

As a mac user I have learned to hold back being negative about someone elses computer. I wouldn't put down somone's game machine. Though I love the PS2 and was really disappointed with the PS3, there are people out there who love their PS3 and I try to take that into account. That being said if someone is shopping and wanting my advice on what to decide I advise the wii or the Xbox360 because they are selling well and will have a lot of choices for games.

I think the corprate culture that put root kits on cds and aggressive copy protection on DVDs, has probably blead over to the gaming side of Sony. I hope the PS4 will be a huge hit.

Yeah, I'll give you that Link. I think maybe the PS3 is probably ahead of it's time, It's trying to be too clever for it's own good, and not doing so well. I defend it because the original Playstation has a very special place in my heart. I loved that machine {possibly more than any other since} and played on it endlessly. I also have a PS2 which is also great. I've always been a bit of a Sony fanboy and I really wanted the PS3 to do well, I'm sure that it will find it's niche in the market eventually.

What I always liked about playstation is that your old playstation games didn't have to be put out to pasture because the new console would play them too. This was a good system for me. I'm not a good gamer I just like to go play in the 3d environments. I don't normally get very far in the game. And the huge price of the PS3 kept me away. Too much to play in a 3D environment.

i've got the wii..and it's amazing :D
i think the ps3 is good as well..but it's too expensive for me. :/
but i do want the new ratchett and clank game for it.

I think the broad adoption of Blu-Ray is going to be a big boost to future PS3 sales as a nice $400 game counsol/Blu-Ray player.
