Uuh. . . PS3 or Wii. . .?

[pop3tart]

So my brother keeps asking me. "What would you rather have?" and I can't choose. You see, lots of people tell me "Get the Wii" but there's quite a few games like KHIII and FFXIII that I want sooo badly when they come out. I mean, it's SQUARE ENIX! They're gonna be putting a lot of their new titles out on the PS3 so. . . it's like a weight balance. One day I want the Wii. . . next, the PS3. Anyone have any suggestions? Advice = lots of love!

it depends of the kind of RPG you like, because square-enix is creating some action rpg's for the wii (the new FFCC and dragon quest swords).

in my opinion you should get the wii first because the good square-enix games have a closer release than the ones on the ps3, but if you could only choose one then the ps3 is the best choice for RPG fans (unless golden sun does come out for the wii but i think that's rather impossible)

Yeah so far the Wii is dominating PS3 still has no good games out a few good but not as much as a nintendo Wii and the Wii is cheaper.

Well, I have both, I found nothing good on PS3 so far, Go for the Wii first then wait for the PS3 to have good game releases.

ps3 will probably be a much better system in the long run, but if your planning on getting both then get the Wii

Solution: Get a 360, just do it.

the thread is to get a ps3 or a wii the 360 is not an option.

and the final fantasy XIII games won't be out for a while so you might wanna buy the wii first.

[Biff_tech]

That's the point why argue about getting a PS3 or Wii when you can just get a 360 it's too clear of a choice.

If he didn't mention the 360 in his choices, then it is not an option and shouldn't be brought up. All the 360 has is a stable online service and maybe a few games. Most of the 360's killer apps are available on PC and still suffers from faulty hardware despite the release of new 360s with the Falcon chipset.

The Wii is fun for a little while before the novelty wears off and you realize that there are really no good games for the Wii outside of first-party titles from Nintendo.

The PS3, while lacking many exclusive titles at the moment, is the better choice. There are many new games on the way while also giving you a free online service, a Blu-Ray player,and other features.

It's really up to you.

360 is the best system out there right now, no doubt about it. wii won't ever have a chance and neither will ps3 if they cant put out a few decent games.

EDIT: if you HAVE to go with ps3 or wii then get the ps3.

[ddr_f4n]

Wow, I'm not going to say 360 because it's not what he wants.

So I'm going tell you to buy the Wii. I know you will look at it as a "kiddy system", but don't misjudge it like that just because it's Nintendo. Most of their games are really fun because of the controls themselves. Also, games like Super Mario Galaxy is out, and there are future releases like Super Smash Bros Brawl that is coming out in February.

But of course, if you are the patient type, you can get the PS3 and wait for some of their games to come out. But I wouldn't. I'm not that type of person.

The 360? Are you a freaking moron?

He wants an RPG. You going to tell him to get the 360 and get Blue Dragon?

Name more than 2 RPGs that are coming out for the 360.

blue dragon
mass effect
eternal sonata

there you go there's more than two rpgs that are out on the 360

[Telvanni_guard]

Mass Effect is already out. And it doesn't follow the JRPG that it looks like he's looking for. By the by. Eternal Sonata is already out too. So is Blue Dragon.

The only ones I know that are coming out are: Lost Odyssy and that one they announced at the Tokyo Game show.

the 360 has the ring of death. i dont think he would want a system that is infamous for crashing.
i would pick the wii over the ps3. the wii is 100% backwards compatible, has ports for the gamecube controllers and memory cards, and has the virtual console, which has more games for download than the ps3. oh and it costs 250$

with the ps3, its 400$ for a 40G HD, not 100% backwards compatible, if you wanna play old games and you wanna continue where you left off, you need to buy an adapter for your memoery card since the ps3 doesnt have a port for one.

Apparently you haven't heard of the Dust of Death for the PS3.

The $400 PS3 doesn't have "limited" backward compatibility. It has no backward compatibility.

Also, Chromer, you constantly tell me that I'm a fanboy, and then you make statements like that. The novelty does not wear off. Wii Sports wears off. It was obvious. You can't play any one game for that long. Actually, pure-motion control games aren't really that good, either. You need a mix between motion controls and another control, which is usually motions on the wii-mote and movement on the nunchuck. That is what makes a good game. Fortunately, most Wii games follow this formula.

@OP: It's a good thing Square makes horrible games. Just go get a Wii. I don't know why you'd pay $400+ for a console for just two games anyway.
