XBOX 360 vs. PS3 vs. Wii

The Console War will officially begin tonite at Midnight with the release of the PS3 and Sunday's release of the Nintendo Wii.

Any thoughts on who will win the Console War and why?

I currently own an Xbox 360 and am way in Microsoft's corner on this one..

I have both a PS3 and Wii on Pre-order. I will have my PS3 tonite and I am anxious to see some of the differences.

I have to say nothing has impressed me as much as "Gears of War" on XBOX 360.

My XBOX 360 Screenname is, you guessed it,...AceDeucy...so all you gamers hit me up and let me know what you think about the console war and if anybody thinks they have a shot in some Multiplayer Deathmatches tag me on Xbox Live.

For those getting both, how do you plan to rate one vs. the other? Are you going to use the exact same game on all three and see how the graphics, gameplay and performance is etc?

A good gauger would be

PS3's - Resistance: Fall of Man

to

Xbox 360's - Gears of War

they are very similiar in storyline, but the names have been changed to protect the innocent.

My thoughts,

I will get PS3 and I also have 360. The Wii will be a pass unless someone tells me it is amazing.

As far as gameplay, i have always prefered the play station.

But the best platform for games, is, was, and always will be, a regular PC. Computer games are just SOOOOOO much better than console games.
I haven't figured out yet why manufacturers like Sony and Microsoft haven't figured out that PC gamers like having a mouse and keyboard over a joystick, You have more control with mouse being able to target, etc. And the keyboard gives you much better functionality.

So why one of these game systems doesn't give you the ability to play with a mouse and keyboard is just silly. I would wipe all the online gamers with joysticks off the face of the earth with PC like controls.

MOUSE AND KEYBOARD are the only way to play games. (driving games not included.)

Sup B-Line...

Nice meeting you at West Fest IV..love the Porche

In respose to your console vs PC. I would have to give you props on playing with a keyboard and mouse over a joystick..you most certainly can get more out of a game with more controls and over 100 buttons to push on a keyboard, however, graphically I would have to say we are near a dead heat on the visual portion of the debate.

Unless your running Top of the line NVidia cards on an AlienWare Area-51 I think the 360 and PS3 are right there with the PC world and if you disagree with me I would have to say the next-gen consoles coming out in 2010's like Xbox 720 & PS4 will be superior and outputing at over 1080p resolution.

But I would love a keyboard and mouse anyday...I like the 360 controller.

Have you seen Gears of War yet?
