Whats game system is better for all around Entertainment PS3, XBox360, or The Wii.?

Question

What system do you think you can do the most with???

Answer 1

Well, I've asked this question many times before .. and after a couple of months of reading reviews, messages boards and the systems tech info .. in MY opinion, 1. XBOX360, 2. Wii and 3 PS3.
Why I say this .. in the hardware department, the 360 vs. PS3 are basically the same, with some going with a the better architecture for the 360 and others (but few in comparison) to the PS3. But again, basically they are the same. One difference would be the integrated Blue Ray DVD that is already included on the PS3. But, at least for me, that doesn't make any difference, I really just don't care for Blue-Ray DVDs. XBOX360 has an ADD-ON Blue Ray DVD thingy, which you can get for around 200$ (I think), so it's basically the same price.
The Wii is a fairly simple console, with the "fun factor" to the max, but seriously left behind on the hardware race (graphics and such).
I, personally after pondering this question, decided to get a 360, just because I wanted to get the best console and best price. The Wii, in my opinion, is a great console, but I decided NOT to buy one when I saw the 250$ price tag (I really think that the price should have been 149.99 - 199.99 no more than that).

So, overall, for me the best console for entertainment (because of the hardware+fun factor+price) is the 360.

But if you have the money buy an Xbox360 + a Wii .. OR a PS3 + Wii. Only this way you might get the best of both sides of gaming .. kick *** graphics and incredible fun.

Answer 2

Take it from me, a 15 year old teenager. The PS3 is extremely expensive and lacks good games. But it does have a blu-ray dvd player if you're big on technology and feeling a little selfish. This is just a failed system. The wii is a lot of fun because it utilizes motion sensor technology. It's great but hard to find for whatever reason (I mean hard, unless you're willing to dish out megabucks) and at your son's age, he may quickly begin to find many of the games childish. This is definetly a casual, family system. The Xbox 360 is the console I personnally own. It's well worth the money. There are many great games, but NOTE: the vast majority of the games are MATURE 17+ games. I don't know if you let your children play these games. In my opinion, they're not that bad at all. But you might want to use some caution when buying games (tell your son I'm sorry). This is clearly the best system and has the strongest selling point: Xbox Live. This is when you connect the internet to the Xbox and your son will be able to play with people around the world, including his friends, so long as they have Xbox Live. This is more of a hardcore gamer system. Buy the Xbox 360; your son will love you.

Answer 3

The 360 is leading in sales because it's been out for over a year, but it has only sold about 3 million worldwide. That's not a huge lead especially with a 1 year lead. Wii is next because it has the 2nd most consoles available (around 400,000 at launch), while the PS3 is last because it had about 175,000 units available at launch. Survey says 9 million people would be willing to pay 600 for the PS3.

Best overall system would have to be the PS3. You did say for all around entertainment. It has Blu-ray so you can watch HD movies if you have a HD TV. It's also a video game machine, and the heavy hitters should be coming out sometime next year. It can also act as web browser.

Answer 4

It depends on what you want, wii is more price efficent, is E heavy, and simpler to learn the controls. So if your looking for a good family consol, or somthing any guest can play, wii is for you.
The PS3 has really good stats proscessing, graphics, ect. And comes with blue ray dvd player (which is a risk, if the HD DVD beats blue ray, you find many compatable dvds). All of this comes with the highest price however. The lineup seems more T heavy than the others. So if you have an older familly, or your getting it for your self, and you don't mind investing a lot more money, the PS3 is for you. The xbox 360 has good stats close to the ps3, for a smaller price tag. It has an advantag, being out longer, of a bigger library, which has shown to be a lot more M heavy than the others. So if you like gut spewing FPS's, than the Xbox 360 is for you.

Answer 5

These questions are starting to get really boring. The 360. It is more powerful of outputting 1080p than the ps3, will allow consumers to choose when they want to jump on the next gen video format band wagon with hd-dvd when they want to. It's very close to selling 10 million consoles and Microsoft pretty much snagged a lot of the exclusives from sony including GTA IV where the 360 is getting hours of exclusive downloadable content. The 360 has Xbox Live which is the best online service which one can download actual movies, shows, game demos, arcade classics, new arcade games, themes, gamer pictures, etc. This console has and is going to have Gears of War, Mass Effect, Bioshock, Halo 3, GTA IV, and Assassines Creed.

p.s. Japanese analysts predicted that the 360 will dominate sales until 2011, with sony coming in second and nintendo in third.

Answer 6

it depends what you want and who you are.. if you're a child, you'd probably like the Wii.. if you want to buy a lot of games and you can't wait for them to be released, go with the XBox360.. if you want the most powerful system with the best graphics and best performance, then you'd probably want the PS3..

Answer 7

I believe the Xbox 360 is the overall best. It's winning so far in sales. Xbox then wii and PS3 is coming in last so far.

Answer 8

I havent played anything execpt the Wii but that game system is badass! It's fun cause its like you are actually playing and not just with buttons and joystick!

Answer 9

The Nintendo Wii is the best, but XBox has the most...."gadgets".

Answer 10

at this moment in time, dvds cant be played on wii

hddvds need an add-on for 360 (maybe ps3 too i dunno)

ps3 can play blu-ray disks (possible flop though)
