There are also the web-based games that you have to sign-up to play. | I wonder how many of those web-based games the Wii and PS3 support. | I'm not talking about flash games.... so none of the games I am talking about. | Oh? Then what did you mean? And why not flash games? | If you want to include flash games fine. That jsut opened a new level of games. The Ps3 does not support them, well most due to an out of date web app. The Wii probably does to an extent to what has been optimized for the controller.
But I am talking about text based games (muds, text-based strategy, etc), web-launched games like the indie title Gunz the Duel and the web based MMO Fighting game Bots.
| So "web based games"="browser based games" after all. Why is it that you say that the PS3/Wii cannot handle these? | Have fun typing in a mud on the Wii.
Have fun running a game that is installed on your HDD that needs a web based codex to both launch and login to the product only available on that website.
Have fun when the PS3 web browser if you find a more graphically enhanced flash game, that supports only Flash 7 when the rest of the world is on Flash 9,makes the browser run out of the 10mbs of ram that the PS3 web browser is allowed to use.
| Hey, it was a serious question. But doesn't the Wii support keyboards?
And I didn't know that about the PS3's browser. But that could be improved in future updates, right?
Still, a good answer. |
Sadly the PS3 is the only one that supports a legit keyboard but the 360 has a keypad that plugs into the controller but thats all.
As for improvements, they can update the flash but they are wanting to keep the ram use for the hypervision OS down to a minimum. So that can't be easily fixed.
nvm: naz brought it to my attention that the Wii does support a keyboard, but it should still be limited to ram useage like the PS3. I asked Naz about flash support and jsut like the PS3, its only flash 7. Of course a lot of flash games have been made specifically for the Wii. It of course can't handle the advanced browser games.
