i've been so busy with school the last few years, among other things, i don't even have a 7th gen console. and for christmas, after i gather up the christmas money, i plan to buy a 7th gen system, FINALLY.
so...... wii or ps3 or 360?
i don't care too much about online play, even though maybe i might get sucked into it once i start gaming again. price is not that much of an issue. and the types of games i play... are like the FIFA games, or fighting games, stupid little arcadey shit is cool wit me too, and most importantly, being the nerdy asian that i am, i want the DBZ burst limit game more than any other games. i'm not too into big ass serious games that will take up my entire life for me to play. i usually do simple fun games i can play whenever and don't have to committ myself too much into.
so considering the above, what do you guys think i should get?
-
hmmm... I'd say ps3
but my real answer? PC NIGGA!!!! JYEA!!! You know that DBZ is coming out as a MMORPG (massive multiplayer online role playing game)?
you can make your own character and stuff, and huge storyline, and it's online. :rockit:
obviously that's gonna attract a lot of dbz fans.
fifa is comes out on pc no problemo. street fighter 4 is on pc. there are a lot of games coming on pc which also comes on ps3 or 360. and
plus, since you're a nerdy asian like me :hello: I think you'll like real time strategy/war games like the awesome TOTAL WAR series or age of empires and shit.
Empire Total War is comin on february, it's all about the revolution era and shizzle. amazing graphics
and the best part about pc is if a part is obsolete, you can always upgrade it eh? a good affordable pc can be bought at like a $1000 (US).
that's a good cheap one, but if price is not an issue then why not go crazy? the new micro architecture from intel is being released next month and the new intel motherboard supporting it too. the intel nehalem (aka intel Core i7) and the intel X58.
if you're a pc freak, you'll know how good these two are. :cheers:

Xbox 360, and it also depends what your friends have.
Xbox has a lot of First Person shooter games, and a lot of sport games. It has the separate arcade section in the Marketplace where you can downloads hundreds of Arcade games and add-ons.
Also, the new update is coming soon where you can see what your friend's are doing. What is on their screen, will also be displayed on your screen I heard, and you can play all these arcade games with friends, like play cards, and even watch movies together, and you won't even be near eachother!
Plus, me, Chunk and Mac have it.

WOW!!!
now I'd say get a frikkin 360 instead if you don't want a pc!!! that's some amazing shit!!! :saywhat:
-
i got a ps3 and it's better :
Note this video was added 1 year ago.
-
same here i got a ps3,
free internet wireless internet
you can download themes, add on's, game demo and it all fits on your harddrive.
plus you ps3 gets regular updates from the net with new features such as power saving mode and true full HD
it's unbeatlable
-
The new dashboard update for the Xbox 360 can easily beat the PS3.
:lol:
-
Haha, yeah the new dashboard! Only i that get "wii" feeling all over it? But it still pretty cool
-
the types of games i play... are like the FIFA games, or fighting games, stupid little arcadey shit
Then its the wii
Fighting - games like red steel, you use you wii remote as a sword and aim on the screen when using a gun
Fifa - fifa 09 you aim were you want the ball, how cool is that,
arcade - you can download wii games from the shopping channel any game from any sega or Nintendo console made, Super mario, Sonic etc.
-
hmmm lots of conflicting opinions. this is interesting. i wanna hear more tho.

oh my god!!!!
red steel sucks, sorry. :lol:
I played it and damn... i got bored in seconds. and fifa is pretty weird on wii, I dunno I think people like it, but certainly not me.
btw ed, you thinking about a pc? :biggrin:
-
Should have added a poll. PS3 for sure bro, Wii is pretty good as well, no matter what you do don't get a 360.

y is a 360 bad?
-
y isn't it bad? :3some:
Seriously I've played all of them, especially the 360 I've played it the most just don't like it. I found the Wii to be unique its a different gaming experience. Ps3 is the best.
-
i have to agree with that
if you really want to play a good game sysytem it's the ps3, something new the wii, something old and green the 360.
plus the ps3 has all the game genre's you wanted and everyone here knows that it is superior in graphics

hmmm im starting to lean really towards the ps3.
that's what i thought i wanted at first, but then i read some articles about how 360 was better..... meh...
-
where?
i kill those SOB's
the PS3 contiusly updates it's self, so do the games
-
So does Xbox 360.
The new dashboard is going to kill the PS3, trust me.
-
Owen name some games you really liked when you used to game.
if its morttal kombat then theres a new one coming out for the 360 and ps3. MK vs Marvel.
or if its Banjo kazooie then theres a new one coming out for the 360 not too sure about the ps3 though.
Ps3 has Metal gear solid 4 which ive heard quiet a lot of good stuff about it.
anyway gotta watch some footy i think i have you on msn.

it's Mk vs DC universe
what a dumb choice, it should have been Marvel... doesn't match at all... I mean imagine Scorpion fighting Superman... wtf? Now imagine Scorpion vs Spidey or Wolverine... makes more sense eh?
or better, MK vs Street Fighter (or Capcom)
the worst part about Mk vs DC universe is that it ain't on PC!!! :cursing:
come on... MK 4 was first made on PC other than the arcade version. wtf!!!! :angry:
-
also no fatalities! :angry:
Anyway owen i would recommend trying out these different consoles at your friends house. Imo the 360 is the best console if you only want it for gaming but if your really interested in technology then i would pick the ps3 because of the blu-ray and the internet explorer but the wii really doesnt have much to offer the online play isnt that good from what i heard the graphics are much poorer its only good for someone who would use it for friends at a party. but i guess you cant knock it intill you've tried it.
The ps3 online gameplay doesnt hav the same feel as the 360s online play plus the 360 are releasing a new update when you can chat to 4 people at once privatly when previously it was only a 1 to 1 private chat. and apperently you can now see what games people are playing like whats on there screen, theres also msn on it but tbh i think its pointless and i never use it but usb keyboards work for it and the PS3 internet explorer.
There wont be much Exclusives like there used to be besides for the obvious Gran turismo, Mario, Halo, Gears of war and Metal gear solid. Since the costs of games costs a lot more so they have to release them on all new consoles. So you can play Final fantasy, Street fighter or Resident evil or what ever you prefer on all of the "Next-gen" consoles Crash bandicoot is even available for the 360 but all the new Crash games are complete shite.
Price wise i would go for the 360 Elite since its more reliable than the original 360 and has a bigger hard-drive and built in hdmi and is near enough the same price, although the wii is cheaper the games are cheaper but arent that good. Not sure about prices of the PS3 are in NM these days but there sales are catching the 360s at a quick rate. Definetly stick to the 360 Elite if your friends all have one.
-
i was originally goin for an xbox 360 but i heard too many cases of addict and ring of death. and i learned that i had to pay to play online.
so yeah i'd say ps3.
-
owen id say ps3 but by ur standards i see u just wanna jump in and have not much comintment to them, so id gota say nintendo for ya... u sound like a nintendo kidd, but i like ps3...iv gota all the systems but my fav is ps3 cause of mgs..killzone...fifa and what not
-

-

yea it's a great game, but i don' tusually play those kind of games.
i play colourful games, with flashing lights, to keep me entertained mindlessly. and it'd be great if i don't play for like 4 months, and come back, and am not completely confused and have to re-learn the game all over again.
but i'm not interested in the wii. i want DBZ burst limit goddamnit!!!

well just buy the game you want, whats the point in this topic if you just want one game.

well that just eliminates the wii option. i'm just not interested in that. but i'm debating between ps3 and 360.

just choose the cheapest console if you are only interested in the dragonball game. xbox360 and ps3 are pretty much the same unless you really look into it.

well obviously that's not the only game i'm interested in. but that's the reason why i'm writing off wii. plus, i've stuck with nintendo pretty much my entire life and i want something different.
but i think might get the 360... cheaper and more games.

gahhhhh why?
-
no good decision.

hey guess what
since you like DBZ, DBZ Online (mmorpg) is on 360 too! it's on PC of course
so 360 has DBZ burst limit and DBZ online :P
but if I were you PC FTW :rockit:

i just really don't like pc gaming. feels weird to me.
-
you could buy an xbox 360 controller for pc you know
plus, there are many PC exclusives that are sweet azz, also PC has most of the games from 360 and PS3 and if not they have other kool alternatives
Plus, PC has better graphics than Ps3 and 360
try an Nvidia geforce GTX280 or Radeon HD4870x2 gfx card with a 30 inch LCD screen or a 1080p hdtv while playing Crysis or whatever
HUGE PWNAGE in sexiness than any game on ps3 or 360, now imagine crysis 2 :rockit:
WORST part about PC gaming is improving PC hardware, WAAAAY too expensive. :saywhat:
if you've got the moneyz then PC is for you, however you need to study a lot about PC hardware and software compatibility. :rolleyes:
-
your going to regret it
plus in a few years time you are going to have to buy a blu-ray player, since dvd will make way for Blu-ray
-
those who tell yyou to buy a ps3 own a ps3, same with xbox360, so i dont think its a good idea to make your decision based on what people here tell you
-
i won all 3 of the new systems and i say ps3!.....but anyways ed im sick of this thread just pick whatever is in ur heart :thumbsup:
-
i dont have wither but i wud get an Xbox...cheaper and mostly the same
-
I've played all at my friends' houses. they're all good. but I'd say PS3 is the best, I dunno, somehow it feels more technologically advanced. it seems like you're actually playing something new. the 360... yeah it's fun obviously, but it seems a bit old and like outdated in its 360 exclusive games, I dunno. I just feel like PS3 is the best.
Wii is fun but they're already making a new one I've heard which will compete in terms of graphics with the other consoles.
also, PS4 and Xbox 720 are being made. accordingly, they should be released some time between 2011 and 12.
but obviously, PC FTW!!!! :biggrin:

i have a 360 and its broken twice so i would suggest getting a ps3

F___!!! I need some cash for Lord of the Rings Shadow of Angmar + Mines of Moria + 2 month card :angry:

any one tried the new 360 dashboard?
-
any one tried the new 360 dashboard?
no, looks nice tho!
-
any one tried the new 360 dashboard?
Yeah, it's pretty cool, the avatars aren't bad either. I thought it would be better to be honest.
-
I prefer the old dashboard im constantly having problems with my network settings for the 360 so when ever i go to do the test its so vague before it tested each inividual sections like NAT, ICMP, MTU.
I like the avatar idea but i dont like the layout there pushing things that nobody cares about like the inside xbox feature plus when you press the middle button the menus are navy blue which defeats the object of choosing different themes.
The party chat was a great idea and the avatra is fun. but thats about it.
Anyone else heard about Gears of War 2 being banned in Germany?
-
yeh my brother told me about queers of war in germany

Yeah, this is a bit overdoing it. The old dash was nice and simple, but I guess we're just not used to it yet. I like the PS3 because it's nice and organized. The 360 is organized too, but like you said with the Inside Xbox, no one cares..
-
Anyone else heard about Gears of War 2 being banned in Germany?
WTF?????? are you sure?? that would mean i cant get gears 2 :bang: :bang: :bang: fuck fuck fuck fuck

http://www.hardcoreware.net/playstation-3-vs-xbox-360-one-year-later/
read this one is areview from this year comparing both consoles
-
honestly, in the coming year PS3 will be much better. look at the games look at fight night round 3, that is the most realistic game i have ever seen, look at F1 championship edition that cleanest picture perfect game. all on PS3.
those were the first few games that came out, imagine next year when fightnight round 4 comes out and other games.
plus sooner or later you are gonna need to buy a blu-ray player since blu-ray will take dvd out of the market the same way dvd took VHS out of the market.
-
Il just wait till the price goes down till i grab myself a ps3 :biggrin:

dont think that will ever happen, mostly because of the price.and i still download movies from the internet , buying movies is nothing for me.
pls talking about games, bluray and dvd has no difference at all.
wanna use your console for gaming = buy a 360
wanna use your console to watch hd movies = buy a ps3
