Console Wars

[Ridder]

People keep saying "The Wii's graphics are terrible". but that's not true, not in the slightest. Yes they may be not as shiny or as detailed as the PS3 and XBox 360, but they are still good. People are just comparing the grpahics, as well as gameplay, to the other consoles. The Wii has a completely different gaming angle, you shouldn't judge a console based on the others out there, you should base it on fun.

Yeah... I am thinking about buying a PS3, because I bet NO ONE can name one awesome or extremely fun game that isn't made by Nintendo for the Wii...

There is CoD:MW on the Wii, The Resident Evil:Rail Shooter Chronicles, and I bet there are some kind of fun RTS Games out there.


Sure, they might not seem that fun, but you have to learn to not have such damn high standards.


But yeah, you should totally get the PS3, I hear Uncharted 2, Infamous, and a few other games are good.

I sort of want the PS3 because is it has THE BEST driving realist games, the Wii can't handle them, or they just suck.
I don't really care that much about shooting games....

Whoever cares voice acting makes a game is just sad..........

[Demonik]

Actually, voice acting is very important. If you have some bland, annoying, or overall boring guy voicing the character you're playing as, it really reduces the feel, and overall enjoyment of the game. Wouldn't you much rather hear someone who actually sounds like he's in the game?

Now, people are saying that graphics don't mean everything, and I completely agree. Not once did I ever say I preferred the Xbox over the Wii for this fact. It's the quality of the games that gets me going for the 360.

The 360 is also well known for it's HUGE variety in Massive RPG games. There's borderlands, Fallout 3, Oblivion, Dragon Age origins, and that's only a select few. If you honestly think that FPS is all the 360 is about, than you've got it all wrong. It also has a wide list of racing games, and a number of RTS' too.

Xbox was also the first to introduce triggers. The PS3 inputted them into their controllers, and for some apparent reason, the Wii did not. That's just silly of Nintendo...

Well, it all comes back to what type of games you prefer. Personally, I am not a fan of RPGs and FPS, which is why I don't even own the original Xbox. Halo, Dragon Age, etc; I'm not interested in any of that. My preferance of games are set on the PS3 (which I also have yet to own) and the Wii. Sure, there are plenty of games of games for the PS3 that are also for 360, but what about the exclusives such as LBP and the upcoming GOW3, and Uncharted 2, and plenty more.

All I can say is, the Xbox may be known for great RPGs, but some people just aren't fans of them.

Okay, Crash Bandicoot only says ''Whoa!'' a lot, and nobody really cares.....

Not really, Nintendo doesn't need triggers, Nintendo didn't intend for it to be used for FPS(though it does work for that quit well) so there is no reason for it, if they do have a FPS all they need is 1. the Wii new little function that lets you point and something appears 2. the B button. So not really.

Niklaw is right about the Voice Acting.

Mega says it's pathetic quality to have if you think Voice acting is important in a game, oh yeah? listen to this.

Totally awesome Voice Acting that doesn't screw anything up, AMIRITE!?

[megamario126]

Well, at least Mega Man X Command Mission & Mega Man X8 had good voices in it.

well voice acting doesn't mess with the game a whole lot(unless the voices just SUCK), but its only good for one thing, knowing the right way to pronounce something, like that tangioe in that video Ridder showed us, I would have been pronouncing that wrong, now I know that not really that hard to pronounce if you just look at the word, but there are other, harder, words to pronounce if you just look a them, like the crissaegrim in SotN, and others.
