PS3 gets a bad name for being graphics only, no good games etc. but there are a lot of great PS3 exclusive games and features that no one seems to notice. Warhawk, Echochrome, free online, the PS store, the ability to wirelessly connect to media servers, internet browser, remote play with the PSP, blu-ray-- the list goes on.

[/PS3 support]
on topic: I'll probably do with this what I do with most games, rent, return, never look back. When I go to actually buy a game, I want replay value, and that means a good online system.

I said nearly the same in another topic.
Others Gamers pay for online gameing PS3 Gamers didnt :-)
But need to say that the German Ps3 Store is very empty not like the US Store.Thats the reason most Europeans (Germans) made some fake accounts there to get the newest demos and other stuff.

another ps3 exlusive is Lair ,one of the first games for Ps3.
The Game doesnt get good reviews but i like to control my dragon much.The Graphics arent that much good but good enough to have some fun while using the six axis controller.

Wii has a really good internet browser and the ability to use a DS as a controller. No offense, but the six axis controller seems kind of like a poor rip-iff of the Wiimote. Okay, you know what, let's stop talking about PS3 vs Wii and 360 and go back to TFU.
Finally On-topic (For real): Okay, maybe the Wii doesn't have DMM and Euphoria, but you CAN slam the ground with the remote AND nunchuk to stab the enemy and toss them in the air. And, as someone said recently, but duel mode shall be EPIC.

The Wii's graphics are perfectly fine and the gameplay is tons of fun. I honestly don't understand why so many gamers view graphics as the make-or-break deal. Even if a game has the best graphics to have ever graced a television screen, it won't matter if the gameplay totally sucks. It's ridiculous how much some people invest in graphics.

Thats the last Post i give to the Ps3 Systm. :wink:
Hidden/Spoiler:
Its ridicolous to talk about the price.Ever and ever again
Like Teacum wrote.He spendded more than 450 USd iinclusive Stuff
Converted i spended 550 USD for my PS3 +Uncharted + NFS Pro Strreet+ 2 controller+Remote Control
So i payed 100USD more. 100USD is that to much for a BlueRay Player???? Think not and Uncharted is a must have that for sure.

It depends to everyoe self which system he wants to play and if he can acomplish it.
Im absolute one of this people how want to play in best Graphic and good Gameplay (I never finished Turokdue to the ultra bad gameplay) I speak from Console not from PC.My Pc is a Midd Endsystem with DX9 on a 40 inch LCD Display.
I dont waste my raretime in playing Games again,that arent graphicaly on Top.
On Top for me means Games since Farcry,Prey or Area 51.Everything under it is for me a waste in time.I dont speak from FunGames there it doesnt depend which Graphic it has.
In the past i played Atari,C64 PS,N64 Games but i never play them again.

I know that this is the one and only console that i wanted to buy so Why not best of best.Im thinking to the Future not for now.
No one desclaims that most games for PS3 are out for X-box 360 and oo the exclusives arent that much good (Haze zb) but you know that DVD and (HD Format) will be unsupported in 2 to 5 Years.
So its not mportant what Game now is running with or without lag or has the best Gameplay and graphics.

We will see what will be in the next 5 Years.360 will go down.that for sure and Mirosoft need to think about free online support because none wants to pay for stuff and support that is nomaly for free.LIke for Pc.

I dont want to talk against the WII.Its a nice Family Console but for a Shooter Gamer or TFU its not mentionable.Fun Factor 10+ not more.
if someone considers to buy the WII to play TFU.Hm I dont know if this is a waste in money.To buy a WII to play cool SportGames,FamilyGames or Brain Training stuff that for sure is a good choice.

Thats what i think.
Puhh Finished :P

QFT. I'm perfectly fine with the Wii's graphics, and the gameplay is awesome. Even then, Nintendo has surprised me with what it can do with the Wii's graphics. Look at Metroid Prime 3, those are amazing graphics, considering what Nintendo is working with. The gameplay in that game is amazing as well. (1 analog stick > 2 :P) It's one if the best FPS games I've played. Ever.

I kinda think what you're trying to get at is that it's all about preference. If you love graphics over gameplay, go for it. If you love gameplay over graphics, go for it. I personally love gameplay.

Yes, yes, and yes. Agreed on all that. I mean, my favorite games are old and look really really bad, but I love them. To be honest, I wish they'd stop making everything look "better" and better, even when it kinda ruins everything. For instance Zelda PH. I wished they'd used sprites there :(

Oh, I wasn't directing my post at you, I was only speaking in general. I kinda of just skimmed over the posts and saw everyone talking about gameplay and graphics so I thought I'd throw in my two cents. I wasn't directing it at anyone.

@ Era:
Yeah i know it,Mine Post should not sound harsh to you or so.

I only made it hidden concerning to the size and it should not go direct to you but i went to answere your statement because
into other topics here,i read ever some silly things about PS33 like it is a overpriced paperweigh,Lags more than 360 and other crappy Things.

I only wrote my first batch because everyone here posts against the PS3 and thought noone here interrests my ps3 pots
I have this Console since 3 Month and im absolute pleased with it.Ok the Price is high and Kidies cannot buy it and i know how hard it is to put some money beside and save it to get the Ps3. they need to optain the deployment of the Console and Blu Ray after this the price will decline.Thats sure.

@ Dohnutt:

Thats right.It depends on preferences.My preference is absolutly Graphic because i normaly play Shooter.The first shooter that i played was Gunman chronicles ( HL1 clone).Gameplay great but GFX mähhhhh for this generation.The same to James Bond Nightfire. one hell of a good Game but today the GFX on very high feels low.So i cannot play it anymore.Im too much spoiled from new games with Havok.Agaia Phys-X,Unreal 3 Technology or cryengine2..

Gameplay is important.What brings a good looking game like Blacksite,Turok or Kane and Lynch if the gameplay is ultra boring.you will play it some Levels and than 50-75 € lay in a corner or you will sell it.I do so with most of my Games.I archive only the best of them.The rest went to ebay.

(Both links the same)

"A New Chapter: The Story of The Force Unleashed" - Production video; fairly substantial plot spoilers.

Anyone think that the Apprentice might be
Hidden/Spoiler:
Quinlan Vos's son? I know I initially did, but I'm not sure, since the Jedi target used a blue saber and didn't look a lot like Vos. It would be an interesting tie-in, though.
Also:
Hidden/Spoiler:
Birth of the rebellion - see young Leia w/ Bail, Mon Mothma
Star Destroyer flying away from exploding superstructure - will the DS prototype we saw at the end of EPIII be destroyed? -Perhaps helping to explain why there was this 19-year construction vs. a 2-year construction for DSII.

So you're saying the two DS' in Ep. IV, V, and VI are actually DSII and DSIII?

Tough to say. The skeleton Death Star we saw in EPIII may be just that - a superstructure skeleton. It's pretty unlikely they had a working superlaser by then. The only reason I wonder at all is because in the video, what looks like an Imperial-class SD flies away from a really large space installation which could potentially be that (although it could also just be the TIE fighter construction facility mentioned previously).
