Grammar and punctuation check!!!

"I would never purchase a Wii as it's graphics look no better than a comparable PS2."

And you know this from??? screen shots on some game pages?

Wii have a winner!!! Sony PS3 Fanboy alert!!!

Please. $250 is very good price point. Undercuts Xbox 360. And 2x less than a PS3 (if and when...cough).

White? hey, it will go nice alongside my 360. But yes, I wished for black (to go with my black GC and stereo setup and display and furniture....).

Pffft!!! no really, you have seen the bizarre series of events that surrounds the PS3 right. Seriously, Sony doesn't have the time to wait for developers to figure out how to code for the cell.

As released it's going to be a slightly slower XB360. Developers who want to spend the time and money can theoretically get better performance on PS3; but how many developers are going to invest that time...keep in mind the massive wall of "minimum necessary to get it to work" ports there are on the PC. Now realize your hedging your bets that developers are suddenly going to decide to properly port code to the cell, an architecture that appears to be harder to work with than PC. Wait for your PS3, but don't be surprised if the majority of what you get are straight XB360 ports; which won't run as fast on PS3 as they did on 360.

All I know is that if the PS2 is anything, the PS3 will be a gigantic load of nearly unused hardware. Most of my games are of limited franchises (Metal Gear Solid, GTA) and retro games. All the rest of the PS2 games, unfortunately, are big "Eh?" inducers.

And another thing: load time. I can boot my GC and be into game menus and options within the first minute. My Playstation games require "warm up" time, as well as additional load screens between areas. Graphics are a nice thing, but I'm impatient with my console games. Currently, only Nintendo has gotten the picture. Blue-ray or not, I'd be seriously put off with additional warm-up time delays.

Nintendo wouldn't downgrade their system. The Gamecube can outperform the PS2 when given a chance.

Actually Wii has better power behind it. Sony did somthing wrong in the programming of the "video card" (I lost my memory here, that is why I did that) so the video and processor doesn't communicate correctly. And plus bigger discs (blue ray) doesn't mean better graphics, it just means more gameplay. But seriously who would like to play a 500 hour game? PS3 won't rule them all. More people are out to buy the xbox 360 then they are anything else for two reasons....It isn't going to be as expensive as the PS3 and it has more mature games than the Wii. So if I was going to say that any of them are going to rule it would be the xbox 360. And no I am not an xbox fan, I am more of a Nintendo fan than anything. And if I do say that Nintendo isn't going to get more mature games under their belt, they are going to go under.

From a technological standpoint, you may be correct in your statement that it "dominate" other consoles. However, I also don't think you should have to take out a second mortgage simply to get a next-gen game console that comes with no games.

I do this thing where I play a game because it's fun to play. I couldn't care less if it takes a supercomputer to power every ripple in the ocean.

Eyecandy only goes so far.

So are you trying to say that all PS3 games will not be fun?

I think he's trying to explain that fun != graphics and vice versa. There's plenty of fun games that lack cutting-edge graphics, as well as lame games that have mind-blowing graphics. On the flip side though, there's also fun games with awesome graphics, and lame games with less-than-luster graphics.
