You make it sound like its a bad thing to own an Xbox 360, i have one as well and they're fantastic consoles with very good games, own both and you will never have any worries.

As long as you're not "forced" to buy a Wii, you shouldn't be having a cry.

I forgive myself for purchasing the Wii first. It was a novel idea. Haven't touched it in awhile now.

I like my Wii , I get to play custom GH3 discs, have GH1/2/3/Rocks The 80's/Rock Band & new discs are being released all the time, but having said that, they are the only games I play on the Wii these days.

Id get a 360 if I really wanted one but I hardly have enough time now to play the PS3 games Ive got.

Then sell that piece of junk you call a console and get a 360 as its replacement.

Then how would I play my custom GH3 discs ? If SONY had made the GH3 guitar compatible with the old GH games I wouldnt have had to go & get these custom discs, I could of kept my old PS2 copies & played them all on the PS3.

Seriously, 2 consoles & a DS, 2 PC's & a Laptop is enough. Just sold my PSP because it never got used.

I expected Sony to hit the ground running due to the ps3's launch delays, instead they sat down and ate chocolate bars.

MGS4 is a stunning game, but every other exclusive up until now is destined to be remembered as "ok" or dismal in the case of Haze or Lair.

I thought by now there would be at least three killer apps, I don't know if Sony just don't have the cash to spare on their gaming department or there too arrogant to care that in over 2 years of system development (sdk's sent out well before the ps3 launched) their is only one exclusive title that could be regarded as special.

Latest Model Arcade 360 = $278 @ Big W (less than half the price of the ps3!)

Wii Wii = $399 (hasn't dropped a cent since launch!)

I could dissect your post and point out how your wrong, and uninformed in some regards. But I won't turn this into a fanboy'esque discussion.


At the end of the day, there is no 'wrong' opinion.

Well sony's commitment to quality exclusives has definitely been wrong, so far....

I'va had a Xbox since launch and a PS3 for about 2-3 months now. I'm loving the PS3 and my box hardly gets used. But i must say that when the new dash update comes out for the Xbox and Gears of War 2 is released. It will breathe new life back into that system for me.

But that's of course if i find time to get away from littleBigPlanet and Rock Band 2

I have to support 4 PS3's (I'm a single Dad), so at this moment of time, I can't afford to support 2 other consoles from different comapanies.
