Well for starters a console is different from a pc like it is different from a handheld but if you want to cherry pick things i'll just do the same. Their is not a huge difference between a mouse and keyboard vs a controllers but a controller is better than the wii remote for fps's anyway. Apart from dedicated servers (which some consoles games have) a console has all the options of the pc. Wii can't do 720p or 1080p so i guess it should be deducted points for that.....

So lets say we have 2 versions of a game. Lets say it is fifa 09, one is the wii version and the other is the 360 version. The two versions of the game are identical except for the 360 version has online. Although both use different types of contollers they both work equally well and they are both as good as each other in that respect. Now although graphically this hypothetical game looks the same on both consoles because the wii has a lower standard of graphics the wii version should score higher than the 360 version because the game is a good looking game for the wii and only an average looking one for the 360.....and at the same time because wii owners don't care about online it doesn't matter that the wii version doesnt have online and shouldn't be deducted any points? Well using this great logic, even tho this hypothetical game is identical accept for the wii having no online (which makes it worse) the wii version would score higher and not lower than the 360, which is completly backwards when the wii is the worst version.

The Wii has much better controls than the 360 or PS3 for FPS.  Wii and PC should be capped at 10, 8 for PS3, and 6 or 7 for 360 as it has horrible controls for a FPS.  Of course, the PSP is even worse... I guess the 360 can do 1080p but games like Halo 3 run are 600 not 1080p.  You are right, maybe it should have had 1 or 2 points taken off for that. About FIFA.  The Wii can do much better controls than 360 for such a game so if the Wii controls are only as good as the 360 it should hurt the final score on the Wii versionl.  For example, Madden has better controls on Wii than 360.  Wii owners do care about online and if the Wii version didn't have online, that should hurt the controls.  And graphics, 360 can do better graphics but yes, it should hurt the 360 final score if it doesn't look better than the Wii version.
