Well I've had a Xbox 360 for a year before i got the Wii and yes the online service is great but after a few months everything is the same "oh wow another shooting game, how inventive" at least Nintendo are trying to do somthing different and they are managing, once they have sorted their supply problems out I'm sure they will start going for online games in a big way.
Xbox 360 Pros-Great online-good graphics-HD. Cons-No imagination-only a few really special games.
Wii Pros-Very inventive-some fantastic game-Wiimote-VC-great for when you have some mates around-cheap. Cons-not great online as yet-not amazing graphics.

I see nothing innovative on the Wii this year cept Galaxy, compared to Bioshock / Mass effect / Assasins creed / Portal and some others. And yes im generalising like everyone else here.

Point is guys come to the forum looking for people to give him an honest opinion on which console is for them and seeing people dismiss the others in a word could very well bring them to the wrong decision. If you must compare the consoles in one phrase atleast comment on the main factor. Wii = varied games with new controls / 360 = mature titles with guns / Ps3 = not too many games yet
Since games are universal to a persons preference and the likes of an mp3 streamer for me are just an added bonus.
i know what you meant, my bro has an Xbox - only been online once
Mic sucks - couldnt understand anyone was just mumbling
musics good idea - but (1) alot of games have in-game music or (2) has voices you need to listen to - also its a lil annoying to change a song
msn - good idea but when i was online (GoW) i died, and by the time i read the message had to go back and play, then couldnt reply next time i died cose i had a new message.

I disagree with that totally! Wii Sports isnt innovative no? When have you able been able to play tennis, boxing, golf, bowling & baseball all in the same room with motion-sensored controls?
Not before the Wii. I think you're going over the top with the Wii not being innovative. If you that, then 360's innovation is very very poor
xbox 360 and ps3 are just new, better versions of xbox / ps2. wii is a new experiance for people.
having said that i disagree with nintendo saying wii is for everybody, while i enjoy brain training, i want some more adult orientated material, im not talking virtual murder or virtual porn, but a break from blue skys and green medows. i do however enjoy bowling in wii sports and believe the wii can come up with some quality titles... eventually
im considering a 360 or ps3 as a future purchace. its just at the current price i cant afford a ps3, and im unsure about xbox as im not a huge fps fan and that6s all my mates seem to own / play online
Worms a space oddity, Family ski, Mario kart wii, Bully, Medal of honor heros 2, Resident evil the umbrella chronicles, Super mario galaxy, Endless ocean, Rockstar table tennis, Carnival games, Wing island, Excite truck, Big brain academy, Medal of honor vangard, Kororinpa, Wii sports

Did Wii sports come out this year? The 360 is incredibly innovative in the games due out this year, compared to the games on the Wii, look at Bioshock / Mass effect / Assasins creed / Halo3's additions. Nintendos idea thus far of innovation is same games new control, with one or 2 exceptions for the none gamer.
This is not a console discussion, I've made threads about that so have others, this thread is about people not writing off consoles in one word.

You just havent given Nintendo enough time to bring its first party stuff out, at the moment, theres only one big one and thats Zelda just wait until crimbo, honestly your overreacting here

Your adding an element of time to what i'm saying, you shouldn't do that. 360 / wii what have they got for me now? or very soon? not whats in the pipeline and even then you seen Fracture / Mirrors edge for the 360 very innovative games coming 2008.
