L.S.D Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 will get a wii in the next few weeks to round out all the next gen consoles i already have a ps3 and a 360. i just dont see the longevity in the wii but i like what it has now.So, between PS3 and 360, which one you like more?
BlackKnight Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 My vote would definately be with the 360 or the PS3. I also see the Wii's longevity being minimal- I think it will die a disappointing and unceremonious death in the next 16 or so months once the hype has really gone. As for the main 2... Ive always wanted a PS3 but it seems like Sony is finding every way possible to stiff me. The recent debacle about PAL backwards compatibility is the last straw- my existing library is really the only thing that is still tethering me to the console anyway. If Microsoft actually releases the rumoured black profile 360 next month (rumoured to have a black case, 120gb drive and HDMI) I will be sorely tempted to pick it up.
Wizard Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 Well the HDMI port was debunked a few months ago sadly. But the new SKU is reported to contain the new 120GB HDD. The black case though, is definately a rumor I hope to be true.
BlackKnight Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 (edited) Aparently that rumoured unit was shown at a Microsoft sponsored meet n greet with the retail chain here Myer. My friend who works at the Martin Place branch confirms that such an event took place there, although he wasnt invited obviously. Dunno why they would want to market it initially in Australia, except of course to blunt the PS3 launch, but either way its the black casing that would make or break the deal for me.

Wizard Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 No offense, that's kind of a retarded reason.
Robert Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 I guess you could always spray paint your case black (or pink) if you really wanted to.
BlackKnight Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 No offense, that's kind of a retarded reason. Not really... its just the last factor on a long list. The new specs... all the game exclusivity issues... as well as remaining almost $400AUD cheaper than a PS2. Assuming the price isnt raised of course.
solidius23 Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 only thing i dont like about the ps3 is the lack of games but they are starting to come out now and right now the graphical standpoints are very minimal. btw if anyone here wants to play some gears online my gamertag is solidius2778. hit me up
