i would still rather buy a PS3, but it would be cool if u could change the lightin color from green 2 like red, blue, orange, ect.

[WRX Ryder]

:) i read that in game informer(i prefer nintendo power) but yeah but i think its a little to late alrdy.WII PWNZORS!!

[ravevolution]

ya i think its a bit too late for the XBox 360 'Elite' as they call it.

Think they wanna step up their game and compete with the PS3 and its capabilities. heard its coming out in April or May.

I just know I'm goin to pass on this and go for the PS3 since the games coming out soon are for that system. WOOT! GTA IV (trailer is suppose to be up soon):)

[Sweed]

But then again, my brother claims to have started seeing Halo 3 comercials... Time to start saving up for the Special Edition Halo 3 Xbox 360....

[NON_SKID]

its coming out april 29 saw it on the news this morning

[kidZim]

I got one pre-ordered... :) Anyone want to buy one (with controller, HDD, and custom faceplate {1 of 5000}?)

















Just kidding.. I would only get one if it were hot pink or lime green (GO WII)

[r/cdrifter7]

anyways it looks pretty sweet. i love that color.

[kidZim]

Shut up, you biased nub.

[SUPERSHELBY]

[WRX Ryder]

[mustang-04]

ive never played wii so i cant comment on it. im waiting on a ps3.. graphics is where its at this day n age, and the wii just doesnt compete in my humble book.. besides, if i want to go bowling ill go to the bowling alley, oh wii why?

2 cents

[bondo]

Wii is the most entaining

and i'm willing to bet you feel this way because your 12.
nintendo has always been marketed towards a younger audience.
once gamers mature and realise that there are better games that dont require a certain number of rings collected or triangle peices sought, they opt for a better platform.
nintendo was great for a bit.then came the begginning of the end.
any old school gamer knows exactly what im talking about,...........nintendo 64.
they were trying to compete with sony and were still on cartridge.
ever since then, nintendo has been 2 steps behind.
the onlt thing seperating the wii from others right now is the motion sensetive controller wich is more hassle then it's worth.
if i wanted to get that involved with bowling,fishing,golfing,etc. then i'd go bowling,fishing or golfing.
so on to the only two platforms that matter:
IMO PS3 just got pimp slapped.
microsoft knew what they were doing because i've heard of the elite days before the PS3 was to be released.
micro soft basically said"here's a cheap down graded version of what were comin with"
sony answered with the PS3 and microsoft trumped em with the original model they had planned.

the only thing that is keeping sony in the game right now is top notch exclusive titles.
when the GTA double pack was released for xbox, their sales jumped 30% in a week proving this point.
when gta.SA was released it was another 15%

if microsoft gets ahold of some of the exclusive contracts then it's all over for sony.

cheers,

i have friends in college that will play the wii some to get there mind off of tests and crap, and they like it, because of the games require you to be a little more active than others. i'm willing to bet thats one of the reason you dont like the wii, is being acive.

and i think once gamers mature, they will notice that they cant spend there free time playing games, but something productive, or something with a salary. not spend money on a new system.

man, i can tell you right now that im more active then most.
i run a buisness and have side jobs on top of all of the honey-do's and yard/housework, not to mention the xmods,cars and motorcycle projects, yet i still find time to get me a good gaming session in atleast 4-5 times a week.
video games are meant to be just that.
pretty soon there is going to be a point where noone will go out and do a **** thing because they can just sit at home and do it with a controller even though it will never be close to the real thing.
you cannot swing an 8OZ. controller the same way you can swing an oversized driver or a loft wedge therefore it will never be realistic.
like i said, if i wanted to get that involved i would go play a round.

i hear what your saying about buying a new system though.
they get more and more expensive. thats why i let my freinds buy them and then hang out at their houses.
i have an xbox,ps1,ps2, 3 nintendo's,1 nintendo64,1 sega saturn, 1 atari jaguar, and an intellivision.
the only ones i have hooked up are the ps2 and the xbox. the rest are for nostalgia and collecting.

call me a purist but video games are meant to be played sitting down while eating cheetos and drinking faygo red pop.

i didnt mean you, i meant like people in general dont like it because they have to be active.

just an example man:bigwink:

I agree with this statement completely. Except for the Faygo part, how anyone can drink that swill is beyond me. ;)

[r/cdrifter7]

see guys? bondo knows what hes talking about.the wii is fine for my 6 year old cusin but for me the crappy/cartoony grafix dont do it anymore. i had a nintendo DS, and you know what happened i sold it and got a psp (and loving it!) and i have played the wii (baseball) and it was soooooo easy. i barley even moved the controler and the ball went 90 mph! if the store wire wasnt attached i could have through it over 200 mph. its just too childish.

I did not know you could easily get Fay-go down south, that's one reason I still live in Michigan. JK but its good to here some one likes it that does not live around the state of Michigan and it not some ICP freak(no offense)

[kidZim]

and i'm willing to bet you feel this way because your 12
cheers,

I'm almost 19. You could just check my profile about that.

BTW.. The Wii is going to have Manhunt 2... so stfu.

[Luk3]

ahhh yes the elite version of the 360...mmhmmm
but yeah anyone pre order the halo 3 elite version(comes with the master cheif helmet)
i did
i just watched a commercial about the rating on games.....and i have to say for the kid on there....owned his mom wont let him play mature or teen games...hehe:smile:

[Skyline5654]

ok guys this is about the 360, this is not talking about the wii at all

[bondo]

faygo is pretty much all over now because of icp(and more expensive then it used to be),it's vernors ginger ale that is hard to find.
im from saginaw and i pretty much grew up on faygo because it was so cheap.

KID:
i dont really care if your 19 or not but from your posts in this thread you sure dont act like it.
lets weigh these,
manhunt 2 or GTA4
manhunt 2 or Halo3

IMO nintendo is two steps behind as usual

[sweetvette]

so true, i mean, did you guys see the gamecube, that thing sucked so bad!
the only thing thats keeping nintendo afloat is all the die hard mario and zelda fans. which there aren't very many of.

microsoft is going to start dominating the gaming market very soon, and i think they will take over once they release a portable console and like bondo said, score some contracts with game makers. I mean lets weigh the facts:
Ps3: it's like 500-600 bucks right, and thats just the very bare essentials
Xbox360: for 500 bucks, you can go to costco, sam's club, w/e and get abundle with like two games , a crap load of accesories, and two wireless controllers
nintendoWii: 250 bucks, but it's not HD, no hard drive, no real game titles, and even if you could play online with it, who would want to? lets play golf online! so cool! or maybe lets bowl! ya, i don't think so

[Skyline5654]

ok guys this is just about the 360 and still talking about the wii, so closed
