anyone here have a Wii?
 

My GF likes them. I just picked up one saturday, store actually had some.

I would have liked a 360 but I figured most of the games I want on the 360 are coming to pc (Gears of War (with extra levels), all the Halo games). Gives me an excuses to upgrade my pc and donate free parts to my sisters PC. Plus star craft II comes out next year:bigtu:

Anyone else have a Wii?

Yea I have one...But I still wish I could play Forza 2!

i have one, but waiting for all of the companies to get down the shooting games..... zelda should be good though (okay so what i haven't bought any games yet)

I have one, new in the box, sitting in the closet, waiting for Santa to give to my son. :)

I have one, and I regret buying it because the current games are awful. I DO recommend getting excitetruck though. One of the best racing games I've played, simply addicting and fun.

I don't have one :dunno:

I'm still amazed they're not in stock ANYWHERE though.

I have a 360 and I turn it on about every 4-6 months :dunno:

Bought it for Halo3, which they said would come out right after the initial launch. Still got like 4 months before its out. At my old house, I also used it as a media center extender. I also like the fact that the controllers work through the wall, so I can keep it in the closet.

I did play the Halo3 Beta they released, a little.

just the ps3.

a friend brought over a wii and it was fun but i dont wanna rearrange my whole living room and not get to just chill on the couch to play.

I got one about a month ago and must say it is a blast. If you are looking for a shooting game go with resident evil 4. While it is not a FPS it is the most refined shooting game out on the wii so far. RE4 and Zelda are the only 2 must own titles out at the moment. Other then that the rest of the games are more for lots of people to play.

I have one too, just been playing tennis on it, might look for some other games soon though..

excite truck is awesome!!!

Personally, I would like to get an Xbox 360, but they are still too much $$$$. I played a game at my nephews house called Crackdown or something like that. I loved it.

BTW, this is freaking funny....

Part 2-not as good as Part 1

Right now as it stands 360 is the best system to have. I've got a 360, a Wii and plan on a PS3 since they now have a 100 dollar price drop.

360 games, Forza 2, Gears, Halo 3 (I had the beta..was awesome) Lost Odessy, Mass Effect is coming, so is Call of Duty (will be cross platform though). Unreal 3, Army of Two, Devil May Cry.


For the Wii, the games pretty much suck. They don't really have any replay value...or much value after the first hour of novelty. I played Zelda...it's ok, in talking to a lot of people many people prefered Zelda on the Game Cube because the controls were better..and it looked just as good. Controls aside there was nothing "Next Gen" about the Zelda Game. Red Steel not worth it, Super Paper Mario is ok but pretty silly. Resident Evil should be Cross platform..I haven't looked. The Wii actually has the most exclusive games at 113 out or in production, versus the 360's 95 and PS3's 47. But...they all suck. 360's numbers are only higher because it's been out for about twice as long.

The PS3 I feel hasn't come to it's own. It doesn't have any Final Fantasy games exposed yet. Right now the only thing to get excited about is Metal Gear Solid...which looks amazing, Heavenly Sword..which is a must, and Kill Zone 2 which IMO Graphically looks better than Halo 3.

The games that will absolutely sell the most for 360 is Halo 3, NFL 2008, and GTA. everything after Halo 3 can trip and DIAF.

Forza 2 + the wheel is worth buying an xbox 360 for. It's that good.

I had a wii, the games sucked so bad that I didn't want to buy any of them. So I installed a wiikey modchip so I could d/l the games, but even that after a couple weeks got boring. The only game I enjoyed was zelda, but I've always enjoyed the zelda games. I sold the Wii w/ chip and zelda for $300 over the weekend.

I bought a refurb x360 premium for $250 on ebay and am now happily enjoying forza 2 on xbox live, and recently rented the darkness and it is pretty fun too.

The PS3 is being underutilized. The platform is too new and hard to program for. Please believe me from a technical standpoint the PS3 will be far superior to the XB360 once the programmers begin to use the 7 cores to their fullest.

Geez....I guess none of you guys have played Tiger woods on the Wii.....what a blast.

I have a Wii, and a 360
Excite truck is awesome, and warioware is fun to play when drinking. Overall its a good console when alcohol is involved.

The man speaks the truth

July 4th + warioware + new castle and hacker schorr = :bigtu:

I want an Xbox but like I said all the games I want for it will eventually come out for the PC. Most of the other games I could care less for on the 360.

I'm already talking with my buddy to plan my upgrade path for my pc. I WANT GEARS OF WAR for my PC as well as having it ready for when Halo 3 comes out. Halo 2 just came out and I have halo 1 already for my pc. Plus like i Said I am getting STarCraftII for the PC.

PS3 will be here tomorrow. Gran Turismo 5 Prologue supposed to be out in October, as well as GTA 4. For now I'll just play F1 Championship and watch Planet Earth on Blu-Ray.

Wii is great, but really only fun with friends around.

I would recommend (PS3) Ninja Gaiden Sigma... its by far one of the most incredible games I've ever played. Obviously if your into RPG I would recommend Oblivion, but make sure you have free time, because its terribly addicting and LONG.

omg oblivion is very long. and my gf and roommate hate it.

I need to pick up ninja gaiden and another good FPS like Resistance. A new Half-Life would be good.

yeah, I'm thinking about getting ninja gaiden. I'm not into fighters much but everyone raves about it. I'm really just waiting for the grandaddy of all games, Grand Theft Auto, to come out. I've played all of them since GTA III on the pc a few times through. This is my first console.

Yates you can borrow my RFM.. I dont play it like ever. I play Fightnight rd 3 (pimp game)... and ninja gaiden.. NG is like a combo puzzle and fighting game.. and its got its own fighting system.. not a button smasher.. takes thought

dood i finished RFM ages ago. i want a game like it, not RFM itself.

and I did the NG demo. pretty neat.

Army of Two will be out soon.. and Rainbox Six Vegas is currently out.

yeah, i just finished call of duty 3 the other night. i was hoping for something a little less ARMY NAVY AIRFORCE MARINES....

For the PS3 Rainbow Six Vegas is probally the best FPS out. As for ninja gaiden it is simply a xbox port with better graphics.

You're not kidding. My neighbor is a lead developer for Rockstar, so I get a lot of the good gossip. Example: the cell processor lacks a "fixed to float" instruction.

RFM sucks

I love COD3 for the online play.. I'm viscous with a medic. COD 4: modern warfare will be the sex.

viscous? like your diff?

how's online work for COD?

Online has several formats.. I usually do team.. you pick a side and a class and go crazy. Theres alot of neat classes, one is a lay down gunner which is pretty good. I use a medic with a close range assault shotgun.

sweet. we should net up that shit.

PS picked up NG sigma at lunch. 20 off with best buy cards from previous game purchases ding!

Ninja Gaiden Sigma is the same Ninja Gaiden as the one that came out on the xbox like 2 years ago...

I have a Wii, didn't like most of the games so I modded it with a WiiFree and a PIC programmer, piece o cake.

I have a 360, within the first month got the dreaded RROD. Got it repaired though. Usually play Battlefield 2 or Gears, but waiting on BF3 and Army of Two.

I have one :) Fiance is absolutely crazy about Ravin Rabbids and Mario Party that she can play with all her friends.

wii by far is most fun with at least 2-4 people, otherwise it gets boring fast.

its great when you're at a family function and everyone has been drinking and attempting to play wii golf haha

Everyone should share their friend codes on here, I'll post mine up later!

don't have one, but say weeeee every time I hit boost....

COD3 for wii doesn't have online

I was talking about COD3 for PS3.

I've got a Wii, and I've sold over 50 for profit on eBay ;)

Basically if you have friends, Wii is your console, but if you're a basement-dwelling neckbeard you should get a 360 or PS3 :D

FYI if any of you are trying to find a Wii and can't I should be able to pick one up for you and give it to you for retail + tax & shipping.

its not hard to get one. call around or pre-buy
