MaD CoW 3 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I was thinking of getting one. Can anyone tell what they're like and are they any good or would I be better off with a PS3? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlippinEck 3,665 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 got mates round a lot, get a Wii but be aware they lose their novelty after a while, theres a couple of great games but if you want a REAL console, xbox 360 (or ps3 if you must...)

Still good when you've got sum mate round having a beer! Can b quite a good laugh. Still feel alot af the games are aimed at younger kids tho! Personally i go with the 360!!

rossDas 1,071 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I don't see the point in getting either at the moment. The Wii has about 2 good games and so does the PS3, which is very expensive. I would only consider getting a PS3 right now if you are determined to upgrade to Blu-ray ( a PS3 is cheaper than a Blu-ray player ).360 is cheaper and has great games like Halo 3 and GTA on the near horizon and some great exclusives like Alan Wake, Fable 2, and Mass Effect coming soon.

PhilMcCracken 0 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 i have wii and 360... wii is good once in a while but 360 is solid if you like sports games. wii is only fun when you get a new game and have a new way to use your "wiimote" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1mgg 3,766 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 our local has a wii and it was fun playing it but as mentioned above novelty would wear off very quickly, but it also depends what type of gamer are you and also it is really good exercise Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stardog 10 Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I wouldn't bother with the 360. You can get 99% of the decent games on the PC. Gears of War PC will have extra content too.Get a Wii when Mario comes out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlipDigby 0 Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 The wii is a great console but like a few people have already said there are hardly any decent games for it. I Have a 360 and a wii and I would recommend the 360 just because of the better range of games for it. Gears of War is worth the price of the 360 alone.

Mike Newells Sexist Army 2 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Couple of good Wii games for playing after a few drinks with your mates. There is more than that though, Zelda is amazing, Resi Evil 4 is way better on the Wii with the better aiming with remote and the extras, Red Steal was surprisingly good, Mario Strikers is pretty good online, if slightly annoying and after the Wii i can't imagine playing Madden any other way. There's also alot more decent games coming out on it over next few months like Metroid, Mario Party etc.I'd probably stick with a 360 for now though.

If PC users could play GoW online with 360 users, they would destroy the 360 users.You can also use the 360 controller with your PC. I've been playing Top Spin 2 and platformers on my PC.

It's an FPS with the camera moved to the shoulder.And the 360 users vs PC users isn't really an argument, since the 360/PC game Shadowrun had to slow down the PC users mouse movement online so they wouldn't have the advantage over 360 users.
