Battle for the Next Generation, Xbox 360, Wii, and PS3 Options

I noticed that a lot of talk in the individual threads for the systems is about which is better, why this one sucks, etc. How about we settle it here? You can discuss who you think will pull through in the end and why you think which system totally pwns.

My vote is on the Wii although I'd been pulling for the 360 until recently. Xbox 360 is still my favorite, but the Wii is just amazing. I've finally had a chance to see the Wii in action, and I gotta say, it is amazing. People argue it lacks power and that's really the only argument against it. However, it's not "lacking" in power at all. It just doesn't have as much as PS3 or 360 but still has enough to suffice. It more than makes up for that with it's original design and features. Not to mention Nintendo is making pure profit from every sale unlike Microsoft and Sony who actually lose money every sale. It has wonderful original titles and a great list of upcoming games. All I've been seeing is positive reviews for the Wii. Check this out. It's pretty accurate as far as determining how the race for the next generation is going, but I'm not 100% positive. All sources indicate it's good including IGN.com

So what are your opinions? Post, post, post!

i really dont think the ps3 is a failure like some of you up there said. its just that ps3 tried to do so many things and really didnt think about how would it effect them. Their system is awesome but they should of lessened it down so that they were able to make enough before the holiday season, they set their goals too high and didnt achieve them. if they took out blueray and all those memory card slots maybe they could of lessened the price and made more and also the graphics cards.

Yeah, I think it's a little premature to say it's a flat out failure, but its future isn't looking very bright. It is a failure in the sense that it failed to be this huge hit like Sony claimed it would be right off the bat. I mean, look at that estimate they had that I posted a few posts back. It's a failure at the moment but we'll have to see in the long run.

When I want to buy a gaming system, I want just that. A gaming system. I couldn't care less about all that additional crap. Sony failed to see that with PSP. They thought they could make up for lack of games with all that additional stuff but it didn't work. Now they'll pay the price for not learning their lesson before.
