If you want a family-friendly console get a Wii. It's a brand new gaming experience which attracts many casual gamers. If you want a system with good graphics and a large library of games get a XBOX 360. Even though I personally think it's collection of games mostly consists of shooters. It's online is decent too even though you have to pay for it.  Playstation 3 is costly but worth the deal, as it comes with a Blu-Ray DVD player, but it's collection of games isn't that good right now. It's graphics are great though.

You also forgot to mention that the PS3 has free online play.

The PS3 (I think, I don't know any games that do this though besides Fifa games) has 7 players.

RE: Console by Quantum on 07-15-2008 at 04:04 PM

Had a look and on some games you can get 8 on the PS3 if you connect another controller via USB and not using bluetooth.


RE: Console by BartPc on 07-15-2008 at 04:08 PM

Uhm, ok...Which console is more convenient?


RE: Console by andrewdodd13 on 07-15-2008 at 04:30 PM

Convenient? The Wii is the smallest and makes little noise.

But you need a fairly larger area to play it in...


RE: Console by BartPc on 07-15-2008 at 04:49 PM

Unh, I have 3 mq in a room, I think that the distance is small for the wii

Convenient = Suited to your comfort or purpose or needs :P

Posting here asking "which is better?" isn't going to help. You need to research what each console does and see which you think will better fit your needs.

No it shouldn't have ended, as that thread fails to include an important seventh generation console called Wii. As for convenience, you don't need a large area to play Wii, unless you buy Wii Fit.

Wii Fit is a game which uses a device called the Balance Board which allows one to exercise and do a collection of activities in the game. For more information go to: www.nintendo.com/wiifit/

Ok, the next week I'll buy the xbox 360. Thanks to all.


RE: Console by Curtis on 07-16-2008 at 08:35 PM

For what you're looking for get the XBox 360.

You could get the PS3 for Killzone 2, Resistance, MGS4, etc..
