Title: PS3
Post by: crzyrbl on July 13, 2006, 04:33:00 pm

besides its $600 cost ($1000 in japan), and the rumors of its memory problems, check this out:

sounds like the PS3 will sell out faster than the 360, assuming there's that many REALLY dedicated sony fans

EDIT:
can some one fix the poll?

I hate buying consoles.  It's a big waste of money.  I'd rather just run everything in an emulator.

Nope. Looks sweet, but it costs way too much. Most of the games I'd want to buy for it are for PC as well, so why bother? :o

Comps can do it all.

X360 - POS, but fun when it works, $400
PS3 - Rev-ed up version of the PS2, looks like it's gonna have problems, $600
Wii - No cool games (save mario), and underpowered, (I don't know the price)

Take a guess at what I'm buying/bought

I would get the wii since it can play gamecube games and there is some cool wii games

not to mention the already cool wii games.  I wonder if the GBA adapter for the GC can be modified for Wii?

Necro, me either, it seemed to me like it was trying to do an arcade game on the consol, which is fine for some people, but I need more content then that...

((NOTE: I DO NOT wish to recieve any rebuttles of above comment, as I don't feel like getting ripped into...)
