there is a HUGE difference between the graphics on the wii versus ps3 or 360. have you actually played the ps3 or 360 on an hdtv? the wii is not capable of hd. furthermore, both the ps3 and 360 have a much much MUCH stronger graphics engine than the wii. like was said previously, the wii has ps2 graphics, at best. nintendo has never prided itself on its graphics, but its strong gameplay. i'll give it that, but i'd rather have my cake and eat it too...solid gameplay AND cutting-edge graphics (360/ps3).

And yes an HDTV chages the picture but that is really the only diference and the Wii can be played on HDTV's it has a setting and a plug to do it.
(PS3 and 360 look better only because of the HDTV and if you ask me the 360/PS3 dont have life like in graphics you can still tell that its not real)
What would you do with three ps3's?
Well, to say the least a lot of first person shooters are horribly violent and graphic. Not my idea of a good game. If you want a Wii first-person shooter, go with one of the Metroid Prime games. One of the best game series out there.Face it, Xbox and PS3 don't have nearly the amount of great, fun games the Wii has. They have great graphics, sure...that's about all they have.

They have great graphics, sure...that's about all they have.That is merely your opinion. I consider all those FPS's to be just as good and great as the games you like on the Wii. In seriousness though, I tend to have a lot more fun with games like Crysis or Fallout 3 than party-games.Put it this way, I currently have about 30 FPS's installed on my computer.

Oddly enough, no Pokemon have ever been killed in many years of gaming, TV shows, and movies. Well maybe Latios, but he was a martyr so it doesn't count.

Also, the Wii physically cannot output in 1080p resolution as far as I know.Quote(PS3 and 360 look better only because of the HDTV and if you ask me the 360/PS3 dont have life like in graphics you can still tell that its not real)Thats when you use a PC. http://i368.photobucket.com/albums/oo126/Foe_89/66485718.jpghttp://www6.incrysis.com/screenshots/crysis_tod_art_339kdpl.jpghttp://i39.tinypic.com/246a0s4.jpghttp://www6.incrysis.com/screenshots/16b4h.jpgI think those prove my point. This is also becuase the but more into the 360/PS3 game than the Wii. The Wii is more life like in the fact that you are doing it not moving a joystick, that is why there are 2x more Wii's than 360's and almost 4x more Wii's than the PS3.Wii's rock!!

my personal opinion, the wii and 360 should really watch their backs for the ps3; the ps3 sold more than 1 million consoles this last month. while the wii sold 1.5 million consoles, it was only a 15% increase from average monthly activity, while it was almost a 50% surge for ps3.

The Wii is more life like in the fact that you are doing it not moving a joystick, that is why there are 2x more Wii's than 360's and almost 4x more Wii's than the PS3.not sure what you mean here, unless you mean how many of a certain console owner there is. there are currently 62,585,048 wii owners in the world, 35,795,505 xbox 360 owners, and 30,097,783 ps3 owners. so no, there are not 4x as many wii owners as ps3 owners. i would argue there are more wii's than 360's or ps3's because its a far more accessible console (in both pricepoint at launch and target demographic); however, that doesnt speak for the quality of its games which is the discussion at hand. we've already established the wii is aimed more at the younger crowd, while ps3 and 360 is aimed at more mature gamers.my personal opinion, the wii and 360 should really watch their backs for the ps3; the ps3 sold more than 1 million consoles this last month. while the wii sold 1.5 million consoles, it was only a 15% increase from average monthly activity, while it was almost a 50% surge for ps3.

We're all going to need a Blu-Ray player eventually.
