PS3 wins paper console war: 360, Wii, and publicists cry foul!

Oct 10th 2006 9:30PM (Joystiq)
Thanks Covarr...
I cant wait to play some of my old favorites with the classic control...
But I read somewhere that the nunchuck can be used to drawn arrows on the Zelda game just like you would in real life, how cool is that??!!
I have not given Nintendo much credit the last two consoles but, can't stop thinking they made a great move by not trying to compete on the same foot as Sony and MS, they will give us something different and we will be better for it I am sure...
I am still getting a PS3, too many of my favorites franchises in there... Wont break my bank account, but it is not cheap at all.
But I am sure the Wii will get home first...

Can we put one damn thing to rest??
Zelda is a GC game no more. That said it is still a great game I am sure but is not nextgen at all it only implements the wii controls in to it.
Nintendo will have the nextgen games for the wii but they will be nextgen on gameplay and not graphics, that is the territory of MS and Sony.
Why is everybody so blind? The X360 is like the PS2 last time and the PS3 is like the original XBOX. No way the Sony machine is less powerfull the X360 if anything is way more just like theXBOX was.
We all saw how that turned out...
So it is up to MS to stand its ground against Sony and Nintendo, right now it is their turf to defend they ar e the king of nextgen...
That said, I beleive if sony can keep its word, and ship 6 millions PS3 by Martch they will sell out and close the gap really fast and if MS can not get more suport beside PC ports for the X360 I can see it losing ground to PS3 and Wii very fast....

Thanks Covarr,
Seems a bit much but I bet the experience will be worth it!!
Do you have to buy one of each for it to work or not?
Seems odd they would sell it separated if they need each other to function correctly....
Any ideas??

Is it for real that the wii controls will cost $60 dollars each??
WTF?? that seems a bit too much...
Is Nintendo trying to make some money back on the wiimote??
Kind of price compared to the X360 and PS3 pads...
Anyone knows if this is correct?? Just wondering how much money I have to put out to have myself a real multiplayer fiesta!!!

Nintendo raises forecast by 20%, Sony shares drop on PS3 concerns

OK Concerned...

I don't think that Sony might have a huge advantage over MS and Nintendo, but they will out sell them shortly no doubt. I for one can not wait to play MGS4 and GT5 and God of War 3 and anything that team ICO has to offer on PS3. I know all about the disc error issue on PS and PS2 but, my friends who had a XBOX had the same problem and at least two people I know had similar problems with X360. I have been very lucky, my 1st PS is still running in Brazil and My PS2 just left with my Mother to be given to a friend, all first generation hardware, never a problem at all.
The only conpany I can not say much about quality is Nintendo,their hardware quality is unmatched as far as I am concerned. But gamewise I thing PS3 has more of what I am looking for, the price issue is not a issue for me, I am 30 years old and my job pays me well enough, so if they have the games I want I will go with them, if they desapoint, Nintendo will Wii me over :-)
X360....my PC is bad ass enough that I don't need one.

Tell for real now; what does sell consoles???
One simple question and one simple answer.
Games and nothing else, Sony is got game and anything coming for 360 will be on Sony's machine. Now ask yourself this, if you like racing games, where are you going to find anything better than GT, comeon!! If you tell me that anything else even gets close you got to be kidding me.
Same with RPG, Fighting and everything else, Sony is going to have better and more from the start.
Just go ahead and tell me that you don't like GT, FF, MGS4,and so on... please desohonor all this great game designer with some dumb coment so that it makes ok trash Sony. They have chosen the PS3 as their long term plataform for a reason.
Just try to be realistic at least... Nintendo has my attention for now and I will sample the machine and since is not that much I might even bring one home, it depends on games... always games... the one thing people seem to forget all the time.

Guys get real...
Sony did bad with the PS,PS2 and PSP?? What a joke, is this place full of retards??
Sony has dominated the gaming scene for so long is no wonder everybody is so afraid of them.
The will smash MS and Nintendo so easeally after launch it going to be fun to watch.
Nobody has the 3rd patty suport Sony has nobody, if you even try to sugest that you probably should stop eating shit, it is starting to afect your brain.
Sony will win simply because it will have the most, best games... That is it... nothing else to say!!!!!

OPM promises to reveal unknown PS3 title

KILLZONE, KILLZONE, KILLZONE,KILLZONE,KILLZONE,KILLZONE,KILLZONE,KILLZONE,KILLZONE,

BestBuy.com is selling PS3 games also

Jun 14th 2006 1:53PM (Joystiq)
Hahaha...
They mean to say Final Fantasy XIII I am sure.
By the way, I have never finished even one of the Final Fantasy games. The only RPG I've beat is "Crono Triger" the Playstation remake and if that is one RPG game that desrves a remake is that one.
That said I would surely grab a copy and try to beat it if came out for PS3 no matter when.

Wii unique like 'Google,' says Nintendo

Apr 28th 2006 8:06PM (Joystiq)
Well, the console is small, wiill sell very little and Nintendo wiill go down just like Sega did.Its the natural next step in the nexgen, they wiill be making games for the PS3 in two years tops or wiill abandon the console and dedicate themselfs to the portable market.
What else can they do well beside games? This is going to be the third console that is going to suck, how lomg can they keep going?
Sorry for the Nintendo fans me included but the name is plain stupid and many people keep talking about the DS being unique but the games that are truelly unique in the DS could have been made on any other console and be just as fun.
Lets see how it goes at E3 and I will hold some hope until them!!
