Wii or PS3?

Question

okay users give me ur expertice on these two consoloes and tell me which is better

Answer 1

why..
Ps3
Blue ray- which the 360 does not have. You have to buy it seperately will cost you around 200 dollars.If you look at the technical stuff, the PS3 is superior to the 360. It comes with a built in blu-ray player, which is nice if you love the super hi-def resolution for movies. Why it's actually important is because the ps3 games come in blu-ray format. 360 games come in DVD format. Blu-ray disks have 25 GB memory (single layered), where as DVDs have only 5 GB memory (single layered). This means that PS3 games not only have better graphics (though it's not really showing right now, I'll talk about that later), they also have more space to put game information. If you read a magazine article vs a novel like Harry Potter, which will give you more information? Which will take longer to read? Blu-ray is like the novel. It allows for a deeper, longer, and better game. Right now this may not seem like a big deal because 360 games are just fine. But in the future, this will matter. The DVD format will cripple the 360 when game developers are trying to put so much into a game, and there isn't enough room. This will leave the PS3 with a much better gaming experience. Remember, this is more of a reason for the future. Blu-ray will last and DVD won't. Now, 360 owners may say "Well, you can buy a HD DVD player for the 360, which is just as good." It actually isn't. It costs $200, and it only plays HD DVD movies. The games are still DVD.


Six axis controller- Again the 360 does not have because the six axis have moion sensing just like the wii. Also it has a built in rechargeble battery and no wires. right now it just sucks because it has no vibration to it. But in a couple months its coming put with the new dual shock 3 six axis for a fact.

Playstation Home- Ever play sims well imagine the people that come into your property can be your friends play games and other stuff. Create your own virtual space and room. Invite friends chat im everything.

No need headset- You can easily use any cell phone bluetooth for online play no need for the 360 headset no plugs just push and play.

Games- Sony is still developing just like how the 360 devolpoe the halo 3 took a while but for the ps3 we have great games but not as much as 360. By 2009 we will have as much games as the 360.

Remote play- If you have a psp and a ps3 just by going to the internet with your psp anywhere in the whole world. You can acess your hardrive movies music photos such like thats what makes sony ps3 so much better

Memory- The ps3 has a 20gb 40gb 60gb and an 80gb 80gb is the best. You can attach extra hardrives as much as you want the 360 cant do that the max is 120gb. wow that sucks.

Wifi- 360 does not have you have to buy it seperately wow how gay. which is like 100 dollars and the signal strength isnt that strong The ps3 alreadycomes with it because its a default sony knows this..

System fan- ps3 has prove it has a quiteier fan than the 360..


Failure rate- ps3 0.1 percent 360 33 percent bad

Answer 2

The wii's only really fun if you're playing with friends. The PS3 is fun playing single player, and with friends. The PS3 also has more games that support online multiplayer. Also with the PS3 you get so much more like a DVD and blu-ray player. And because the wii doesn't have a hard drive games like Guitar hero 3, which have downloadable content for the PS3, don't have downloadable content for the Wii. The Wii isn't very powerful and doesn't have big cross-platform games like Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty 4 or GTA IV because it couldn't handle them. I think the PS3 has a much better lineup with current exclusives like Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank, Heavenly Sword, Folklore, and Resistance. As well as these there are the exclusives for the PS3 that are coming out next year like MGS4, Final Fantasy XIII, Haze, Gran Turismo 5 and Killzone 2. The wii doesn't really have any equivalents of these games and it mostly has mini-game collections. Overall I think that the PS3 is better.

Answer 3

The wii actually isnt that bad but every one of my friends says after about a month he got so bored of it that he through it across the room after that he bought a ps3 and about everytime ig over to his house he wont go outside after 12 rounds of playing to 50 in call of duty id also recommend the ps3 because of wireless internet

Answer 4

it really depends on what they like. in my opinion the wii is for casual gamers. if you want fun interactive games that the whole family can enjoy get the wii. the wii also has some games for hardcore gamers like zelda and super mario galaxy.

the ps3 for hardcore gamers with games like call of duty 4, resistance fall of man, and unreal tournament 3. it does have a few casual games like guitar hero and rock band. it has more power and better graphics than the wii. it also has online play. the ps3 is superior to the wii in terms of hardware. the ps3 is really a media center. it has a blu ray, dvd, and cd player in it.

it really is up to what games they like. i hope you enjoy whichever one you buy. for me i have both consoles and i enjoy them both.

Answer 5

This is my cut and paste answer. The reason for that is because a tech info is a tech info, you can't beat it (sources below).

PS3 will win the console war, no doubt. Xbox 360 and Wii are so weak from technological point of view, that in couple of years they won't be capable of dealing with serious graphics. GTA IV, for instance, isn't even announced for Wii - this toy won't be able to cope with the game's requirements. Xbox 360 is getting GTA IV, however, the game is going to be released on several DVDs - Xbox 360 owners will have to interrupt gaming process and switch discs (Rockstar complained about this issue). Only PS3 will have it on single BD-DVD.

Let's compare PS3 and XBOX 360:

1). A third of XBOX 360 (33%) are malfunctioning right from the start. PS3 return rate is only around 0.2%. Despite some people say, that new 360 has no breakdown issues - just visit Xbox section of Yahoo answers and see for yourself an amount of complaints.
2). PS3 has 8 (7+1) kernels in Cell processor, Xbox 360 -only 3.
3). PS3 uses advanced tech called Blu-Ray, one disc can store up to 54 gb (in the future - up to 200 gb), Xbox 360 - regular dual layer DVD-9 (8.5GB). It's possible to get HD-DVD (max. - 30GB) for 360, but it'll cost you around 180$, in this case Xbox is going to be MUCH more expensive, than PS3.
4). Calculations per sec - PS3 - 51-billion-dot-product-operati... per second
Xbox 360 - 33.6-billion-dot-product-opera... per second
5). PS3 has full media support - USBs, built-in 4 slots card reader (except 20GB and 40GB versions), ability to use printer and so on.
Xbox 360 has USBs and only 2 memory slots.
6). PS3 supports up to 7 Bluetooth Controllers
Xbox 360 - up to 4 Controllers
7). PS3 - wi-fi included (except 20 gb version)
Xbox 360 - wi-fi will cost you around 100 $
8). Graphics are stronger in PS3, due to RSX chip, that was developed by Nvidia exclusively for PS3. RSX runs on 550 Mhz. It's difficult to compare their graphics chips, because 360 has a video chip with totally different structure and operating memory is divided differently in both consoles. However, PS3 exclusives look better than 360's exclusives.
9). PS3 uses technology from AGEIA company. It does to physics of the game same thing GPU (videocard processor) does to graphics. This thing is on sale for PC(special card). The price is around 350$. There is no such thing in 360.
10). Xbox 360 is widely known for so-called "red ring of death" problem - it gets overheated easily. My PS3 was running for more than 15 hours non-stop with no problems. Sometimes Xbox 360 becomes so overheated, that thermopaste on CPU melts, drips on motherboard and successfully shortcircuits it. That's why in some countries people call Xbox 360 "Coffin 360".
11). Besides all of this, I've seen disassembled Xbox 360 - regular PC architecture - Billy Gates is an uninventive nerd (as usual).
When I saw disassembled PS3 - it was a surprise - smart architecture, good cooling (don't buy external PS3 coolers - they make everything worse - original system is good), etc.
12). In 2008 PS3 will get more than 300 games, including Metal Gear Solid 4, The Agent and other great exclusives. Here is the good link to the future PS3 releases. http://ps3.ign.com/index/release.html......
13). PS3 online is free, Xbox 360 - you have to pay.
14). There were reports, that 360 scratches discs. No reports on that in PS3.
15). The funniest thing, that right now there are no games for PS3, that show full potential of the console. Biggest games weigh only 25 GB (Xbox 360 will need more than 3 discs even for those).
16). On PS3 you can install other OS, such as Linux Yellow Dog, Ubuntu and others. Sony officially lets you do it. There is no such thing in 360.
17). PS3 HDD can be replaced easily with any 2.5" SATA 5400 RPM HDD (used in laptops). 250 GB will cost you around 170$. In 360 you have to buy exclusive HDD, where 20GB will cost you 100$.
18).Sony expects PS3 to stay on the market for, at least, 7-10 years. Also Sony reduces price now. There is a cheaper 40GB version of PS3.
19).Sony constantly upgrades PS3 software (free updates for OS) - you get new functions and improvements.
20). PS3 controller (sixaxis) has a motion control - you move controller - game responds. Wii has it, Xbox 360 - doesn't. PS3 is getting rumble controller (Dualshock 3) in 1st quarter 2008, Japan already has it. On www.ebay.com I saw those controllers on sale 50$ and up (unofficial import)
21).On PS3 you can help sick people by running Folding Home project. Wii and Xbox 360 didn't even think about it.
22).New 40GB is 399$ or 399 euro (depends on the region) - it has no backwards compatibility with PS2 games, has 2 USBs instead of 4, no built-in card reader, but it's the same PS3, strong, reliable, less noisy, different cooling system. The price is friendly.

I didn't mention Wii, because it's so weak, no point to talk about it. Leave it for kindergarten and casual games.
