why did u get 2 extra subcontrollers but u didnt for the wii? |
Doesn't the Wii come with a Nunchuk?
If it doesn't, then tack on another $30-$40, whatever it is. The point is that it's considerably cheaper.

^ It does, yeah.
A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
ROFL AT TROLLZ
Currently playing: MAG, Heavy Rain, Infamous
Getting Plat trophies for: Heavy Rain, Infamous, RE5, Burnout and GOW collection once I get it.
the thing is sony doesn't need mario, zelda, or halo, they have their own IPs.
It's all about games. If you want to play Halo, Gears or Mass Effect you buy a 360. If you want to play Mario, Zelda or Metroid you get a Wii.
A console can be the ultimate dreammachine hardwarewise, but that means zero if it doesn't have the games people want.

So will the price be biggest flaw?Consumers might think, that they need only 1 console and when they see Ps3 with all its Blu-ray etc etc and Move, they will go for Ps3. But then will Ps3 go to childrens houses also?Might be, since it has that brand name. |
Reviewers suck.
In order of the most best games people actually want to buy:
1. Nintendo.
2. Microsoft.
3. Sony.

Plain and simple. OT: No, the PS3 isn't the Xbox 360 + Wii. It's the PS3 and it doesn't need anything from anyone else to differentiate itself, it's doing that just fine and has beyond compelling software. I just don't get why these types of threads are created in the first place, they only draw negative responses to one, or more of the console(s) in question. |
Wait a minute, I don't want to give the impression that I think the PS3 has no quality games. It has them in spades.
But I think, from the average customer point of view, the PS3 doesn't have as much compelling software as either the 360 or Wii. Software sales prove this point, I think.

This Which is a no brainer
Wii comes with 1 remote and 1 nunchuck. In the U.S. extra remotes are $40 and extra nunchucks are $20. Out of the box anybody can play any single player game.
PS3 comes with neither until they announce their bundle prices. Don't know the prices for the extra controllers yet either. But for some games you'll need 2 Moves for 1 person (like the swordfighting or boxing), or 1 Move and 1 subcontroller for 1 person (like SOCOM). So if you want the ability to play all the games you might need to buy 2 more controllers.
Also, if you need a joystick (on the subchuck) you can't play 4 players. So you can't play 4 player local SOCOM, but a Wii could play 4 player local Red Steel in 2006 with all 4 players using the nunchuck. I think the lack of local multiplayer in those games will be a huuuuuuuuge disadvantage when it comes to the expanded audience, which is all about partying at home instead of playing online. But one-controller games can be 4 players, like bowling and ping pong.
Also, I don't think the PS3 can do Wii Fit or Natal. But now it can do some really interesting unique stuff like the EyePet. We'll see what happens. But no, the PS3 isn't now every console at once.

Well... EA Sports Active is coming out for PS3 and 360. So fitness games ARE possible. Maybe not Wii Fit itself, but it's a start.
