Who will be on top? PS3 vs 360

@ Mr. Squilliam

I sure hope you were just taking the side of the 360 because no one else would. Your arguements were horrible. For example, how does Microsoft making a few mice make them any more capable of developing a motion sensing device? IT DOESNT. That was quite possibly the stupidest thing I've heard in a long time.

Let's look at their attempts:

Software - They've been in this industry for 20 years and they still haven't got it right.
Hardware (Mice, Keyboard) - Poor design on many of their products, low quality, not comfortable, not compatible)
Console - RROD Anyone? 2 years in and they still haven't fixed it.

And now you're asking them to make a motion sensing controller, and you think they can do it better than Sony?

 

 Well yea - it helps to balance things if they get too one sided.

I was actually talking about their dominance in the PC arena - so they can leverage the PC games which utilize mouse support to quickly provide a well rounded software platform to go with motion controls because of the ease of porting between the two. Because essentially the Wiimote is an airmouse with motion detection.

As far as console reliability goes - Sony had 12 years to get it right and they still had unreliable PSX and PS2 consoles. Microsoft got it absolutely right first time with the Xbox1, so we can call it an abberation and leave it at that.

Lastly - They've made an airmouse before and they can always leverage a third party like Nintendo did.
