  • ... Comparing the two machines side by side is like looking at a Ferrari next to a bicycle.

I really liked this metapher. I mean, we all know that there are more Ferraris on the streets than bicycles.

... Oh, wait ...

  • The Wii is for many people little more than a glorified toy. It is just a box for playing Wii Sports or Wii Fit. If these people want proper gaming they will buy a 360.

 

 

Megafail.

You would think with 30 million in sales that people just play WII sportsa nd WII fit and proper gamers would want a 360 would finally be put to rest

 



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

  • The 360 is being engineered into a single chip (+memory) combining the GPU and CPU. The effects of Moore’s Law are such that this will become cheap enough to incorporate into televisions, which Microsoft seems to be gearing up to do. Nintendo has no chance here... with the Wii, who would want a non HD console built into their HDTV?

 

360 in every HDTV? Microsoft domination confirmed... LOL.

 

I bet Sony can't wait to add 360 to their TVs... think he may be twisting Moore's law a bit there too in how he's applying it - i.e. isn't the 'law' about power increase not production costs?  He really doesn't like Wii much, does he?

Moore's law is one of the most commonly misunderstood laws that I know of. Moore's law is actually about the number of transistors that can be inexpensively placed on a chip doubling every 2 years. It does not predict miniaturisation (although miniaturisation is one of the ways the increase is achieved), it does not guaruntee price decreases of existing designs or increases in power for new designs, although these are usually side benefits.

Moore's law is no proof that chips will get cheaper, faster, more powerful or smaller, only that they will have more transistors for the price.

 



Help! I'm stuck in a forum signature!

"Sony is making massive losses on the PS3, and so it cannot bring the price down. All the company has been able to do recently is pass on lower hard drive prices by giving customers bigger drives at the same price. As the PS3 and the Xbox 360 are very similar in their capabilities Sony will now lose a huge number of potential sales to the Xbox 360." = Somewhat true, but red ring,no blu-ray,noisy as my cat,online costs.
"The Wii is going to have a very short production life, perhaps four years, before it is replaced by a SuperWii that will correct its weaknesses. " Maybe..

"Nintendo has no chance here... with the Wii, who would want a non HD console built into their HDTV?" Well, not all people buy HDTV just for consoles.

"Microsoft has now made the Xbox 360 commercially viable in Japan by creating the games that the Japanese want." True.

Everything, I mean everything else is just childisch,stupid,fanboysmin, "I see where my dick points" type.

Well I coulndt say enything bad that hasnt been said so I picked some good points.
