^^ Sorry, had to say that. But in reality i like 360 a lot and i hope it does well, and I hope PS3 does very well. I really hope people stop buying wii once they get tired of the abysmal game selection.

your just writting off the wii right now and that isn't fair either. People seem to forget that it is only the wii's first year, so there are plenty of great games to come.


Yeah probably, I just dislike the Wii. But its also the PS3's first year and its library expanded more than the Wii's. The Wii's Million Sellers:

Out of the 14 million sellers, 5 are Mario + a Wario game which is a character from mario (correct me if i'm wrong about wario) so that means 6/14 are Mario type.  GH3 and RE4 are out for the other platforms. Zelda and Big Brain are remakes (big brain was DS). This means Red Steel, Raymen Raving Rabbids,  and Wii Sports/Play are their only real original IP's.

I know you could easily take a look at PS3's million sellers and say theres only 4, 2 of which are multi platform. But the other 2 are new IP's and also theres quite a few games that are near a million. Also wii has over 10 million more which certainly helps. PS3 also has some games that will most likely/might reach a million at some point that are original IP's such as Heavenly Sword Uncharted, & Warhawk. As well Haze looks promising (if it ever f-ing comes out)
