Sony invented Blu-Ray format. PS3 provides brilliant gaming experience with Blu-Ray player, full HD resolution in games, multimedia and internet all combined in the most technologically advanced gaming console. Nintendo invented Wii remote motion control. Nintendo Wii provides a fun, interactive gaming experience with 3D motion control interfaced with every Wii game providing a unique and fun gaming experience. Discuss this topic people both Sony and Nintendo are innovators of this console generation. BTW: Apologies if it is a very simplistic approach, I know I have left a lot of information out. |
Dude you're smoking crack! The PS3 is probably the least innovative and slightly behind the Xbox360 at that. Xbox360 added achievements, thats enough for me to put it above the PS3 - which innovated precisely nothing. PS3 added... What? It doesnt even do full HD and so far it renders at the same or a lower resolution than the Xbox360. Some innovation you got there. Maybe you're thinking about the creativity of its fanboys? |
That's not an innovation, because all achievements are are a little blip at the bottom of the screen saying that you did something. You can do it on PS3 games, and if they're on the Wii, you can do it on Wii games. You just won't get that blip on the screen. This is why I believe that some people are kind fo dumb when they use achievements as a reason that the 360 version of a game is superior. "GTA is better because it has achievements!" "Burnout Paradise may have had the edge on the PS3, but achievements make it better on the 360" "When it comes down to multiplatform games, I'll pick the 360 version for the achievements!" Even though in all the games you can do whatever the achievements are on other platforms. For example, with GTA you get an achievement called "Mild Coffee" when you first go in Michelle's house. Is that really a reason to get the 360 version when you can do the EXACT same thing on the PS3 version?

You use a bad example to show the fun of aiming for achievements. There's another acheivement you get in GTA IV if you survive over 5 miniutes on a 6 star Wanted level. Now on the PS3 version you would have no incentive to even aim for it, and no one would know it if you had accomplished something like that. There's also another Achievement you get if you defeat a Rockstar developer in multiplayer. Sure you could do that on PS3, but you may not even know you're facing them. Achievements are the spiritual successor of the high score. Tell me, if meaningless achievements have no effect than why would people play games like Space Invaders, Galaga and Pacman? All they give you is a numbered achievement and nothing but.
