Ok, leave Wii out of it. They are completely different machines that cannot be compared.

PS3 owns X360. Why? well here is why.

Blu-Ray: Mainly due to the fact they can hold tons and tons of data. Bigger games on PS3 is a big advantage.

Graphics: X360 looks good now, bu that's because people have had a whole year to work with it. Once PS3 developers know the system expect some graphics that only PC can imiatate e.g GT HD graphics are at 30% of what Polyphoney is aiming at.

Games: Wider variety of games. Majority of exclusive 360 games are shooters.

Controller: Loses the rumble (but whether you .ike the decision or not is up to you, you either didn't like it or not, i hated it) but gains motion, but not on the scale of Wii. Acecombat heaven. Contoller is also easier to work with.

Looks: PS3 is eye candy

Online: On their best shooter, PS3 can support 40 players online at ONCE, X360 can only handle 8.

Backwards compatible: PS3 owns 360

These are the main ones. Get a PS3 and Wii.

PS3 seems more of a media center peice.
360 is more of a get together system, pretty much made for online.
That isn't true about can only handle 8 players online, it can handle however many the developers make it able to handle. I'm sure on a game like Gears of War, 40 people would make the game slow, but other games, it depends how smooth it goes and how they vision it to be played.

PS3-Your centrla media hub
360-Your social average gamer lounge

BTW, at the risk of sounding like I'm trolling.
JUST BECAUSE RUMBLE IS GONE STOP SAYING YOU HATED IT ANYWAYS, YOU KNOW YOU LIKED IT, A LOT OF GAMES HAD OPTIONS TO TURN IT OFF, JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING IS GONE DOSEN'T MEAN YOU NEED TO FLAME IT! YOU KNOW YOU LIKED IT, IT ADDS TO THE OVERALL EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jeeze, not ONCE have I heard anyone complain about rumble AT ALL until now.

You mean Plastic of War (that's it's new nickname), that only has 8 player online. Resistance has 40. Can't wait for 20+ GT races or Burnout!!

What do you mean seems. it IS a central media hub (which is not necessarily a BAD thing, as you may be led to believe). PS3 also has true 1080p, though not every game has it yet (since they haven't had long with the system)

I turned it off on every game i played. the only game that made me feel more "immersed" was Killzone (yes i did enjoy that game). The 360 rumble is so weak it shouldn't have been bothered with anyway. PS2 was the king of rumble (should really be called explosion). How does it add to the experience? Why do i need a controller shaking all the time when i shoot, land a hit, get hit myself or pick something up when i can bloody well see it on screen? PC gamers get along without it. you don't have rumble on your portable system do you?

It depends on what you're looking for; this article should help settle all doubts and allow ANYONE to finally make a choice....

You didn't even read the link I posted above; read it, and you'll see why all the reasons you gave suggesting the PS3 is the best buy are distorted.

And Do I Need Remind That Sony Came Into The Game Industry By Accident And That They Were Bring The Game Industry Down So Nintendo Had To Save It. If It Wasn't For Nintendo There Would B No Xbox,xbox 360 Or Ps2,or 3.
No. Sony came into the industry because Nintendo asked the to develop a CD-addon for the SNES. Nintendo pulled the plug and Sony released the already finished CD-addon as the Playstation 1.

You know you aren't doing any good by bringing this back up. Just let it die and sink down off the first page so we don't have a bunch of idiots posting in here.

i have all three...here are my views..

Wii - don't even play....ATALL lol i don't even own any games for it other than Wii sports

PS3 - great graphics but til we get games like haze and DiRT it's rubbish atm..i have motorstorm and completed resistance..best two games of ANY console release line up. possible the best two there will be for some time but what ever

360 - it's got cheap games and i like that. i picked up SP DA today for £17.99 hey you can't go wrong. i got burnout for £25 the other day and will pick up dead rising for £17.99 aswell when i get the chance.

at the moment. 360 > PS3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> wii?..where are you?

This is why you need to get online!!!!!!! Those games get completed and you get bored. If you're online you can keep those games forever!!!!!!!!
