Anyone own a wii yet?

[crazedcav333]

A friend of mine got it-that things awsome. We started joking around, and I nearly ended up splitting a gut from laughing. Pool, baseball, tennis, pool, and some of the shooting games were the best.

Family Video will let you rent the system for $20, i might have to do that.

MLB The Show will suck like all 989 games.

is spider man 3 worth picking up? i was at Best Buy and almost got that and F.E.A.R. but decided against it.

I believe it's 1 player on the Wii and the PS3, you can play as New Goblin and someone else, maybe "Venom". According to the workers at EB Games, it's much better on the PS3 than the Wii.

Cuz the Wii has stank graphics. My brother has the PS3 and its like night and day graphics wise but the Wii is more fun IMO. My next purchase is gonna be a 360 then im done for the year.

Stay away from the 360 dude....Im telling you, it's a cash pit. One problem after another with that thing.

Had my 360 since the day they dropped and have had ZERO problems.
Cash pit? Not sure what one of those is but MS gives you a year warranty and pays for shipping and sends you the pkg to ship it back if for some reason your 360 breaks. I'm about to get the black elite and have two working 360's soon.

As for the P$3 and your nonsense....how many more years does Sony need to make some good PSP games? I have had that thing since 2004 and so far most games suck. The best game for it has a rating of 8.5.
Like I said P$3 is not dead yet but it is losing the console battle.

Wii is great for gatherings, drinking with friends and get togethers, but majority of my time is spent on 360.

As for crappy games...I suggest a subscription to Gamefly. I rent 2 games at a time for $21 a month for any system, keep them as long as I want and send them back. And if you really like a game you can keep it and buy it for a lower price. A great service!

Why would anyone want the PSP? Thats your fault for being stupid and buying a hand held.

Microsoft also does not pay shipping, I know. Ive sent the thing in three times already. I dont know a single person that hasnt had to send it in atleast once because of the red light of terror.

 

[James]

p$3? lame, who gives a **** how much it is, you think its to much, dont buy it.

and yea, that red light thing is true, my friend got a 360 for christmas, and the first day he got that red light. traded it in for the PS3.

You do now. Bought mine at 5AM on Jan 1st, 2006 and have not had one issue. Happy as hell with it.

I think I just fell in the hype of saying that I owned a PS3. About 3 months ago, if you said that you owned one, you are put into baller status. Sucks now because the thing is in stock at almost every electronic store. It's no longer the coveted system as it was a few months ago.

I still enjoy it though. The graphics on some of the games are so awesome that it's hard to really call it crap. Even though the price is steep, I'd prefer the PS3 over the XBox only because I am comfortable with the controller.

 

[Mac]

The controller isnt that much different, it didnt take me long to get used to.

The Xbox has cool games, NHL2k7, NBA2k7, NCAA basketball 2k7, Rainbox Six, Vegas...those are the games I play the most.

Its all about the pc gaming but I do enjoy playing wii with my little brother. Whats nice is the pure backwards compatibility with game cube games since its hardware is very similar to the cubes. Been playing a lot of smash brothers melee lately with him

Hopefully it gets some better games soon, Mario party 8 supposedly feels like it was a gamecube game to start and later tacked on wii functions.

So mario party 9, mario galaxy and the new smash brothers is what i want to play, same goes for paper mario.
