Picking Sides In the Console War

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the choose-but-choose-wisely dept.

If you're having trouble picking, the reviews are beginning to come in for the PlayStation 3 and the Wii. Chris Morris at CNN offers an analysis of the Wii launch games and some frustrations about the PlayStation 3. Chris Kohler at C|Net offers a side by side comparison of both systems ... and some frustrations about the PS3 controller. Finally, 1up offers a look back at Sony's launches, and a similar look back at Nintendo's launches in an effort to judge how the weekend will go.

    Don't pick sides, pick games.


    Everything else will follow from there.

  3. Kids, PLEASE buy a Wii, 360 or PS3 today =) by dryriver · · Score: 5, Insightful

    With the FPS kiddies and casual gaming boobs migrating off the PC platform, PC gaming may actually go back to the more complex, cerebral, mature games we used to be able to buy.
