Does the Wii have voice chat? Can you download add on content for games? Does the Wii come with a ethernet cable? Can you download demos of upcoming games? Are there more than 5 titles you can play online, and if so do they have online leader boards? Can you send photos to friends online? With Home you can video chat with your friends. You can watch videos and listen to music with your friends and so on.

That is a lot of stuff.  Does it do windows too?

No, but I hear it does Linux.  Would that work?

Home should do great things for Sony. Wii fans are upset because they don't have a decent online component like Live or PSN.

what does PSN do thats so much better then wiis online


 

What does the Wii online do?

 send and recieve emails, watch videos on youtube which is awesome, play games, surf the net, chat on forums like this, dont have to worry bout virus's or being hacked, not have to worry bout obnoxious 12 year olds yelling profanities or calling you a noob while they are getting pwned, so what does psn do that will impress me?  wihtout buying tons of accesories?

 

and as far as games? madden, pokemon, mario strikers, nba live, mario vs sonic, MOH heroes, and a few more that i cant think of right off hand. well just those 6 are more then what you said, can we say pwned? ty



dick cheney loves me, he wants to take me hunting

Well its got a spell check.

What you mean a headset? Got my for free with a game. So you can't talk with friends from around the world? that sucks. Do you have to put their Wii code in to play them? The PS3 does everything you said and more.



I'll take the case!!!

I just don't see it. It looks kind of boring. I'd also worry about the creepy people that might be attracted to such an environment. I don't think I'd want my kids any where near it.

The world is an unfriendly place and scary in a lot of ways.

Children will be exposed to the less pleasant aspects eventually. Better to do it while you're at their side where you can do something about it and prepare them to deal with it when you're not. Sheltering them just makes them that much more vulnerable.


So, "Home", a place to expose your kids to an unfriendly and scary place in a kid safe environment. Parental supervision required. Is that what you're trying to say?


No, no. That's Xbox Live. Go back to Albuquerque, hang a right, and keep going until you get to "j00 sux0rs" street and it'll be right there.


Xbox Live is in Albuquerque? I'll have to check it out if I ever go to Albuquerque. But anyways, you're recommending that parents supervise their children when they use Xbox Live? Strange that you would mention that in a thread about Home but thanks for your thoughts on the matter.


I doubt you'll ever be in Albuquerque. You don't have a Wii Friend Code for it.

Albuquerque is a scary place. I was there this weekend, playing wii.
