The Rise of the Wii

[GreecePwns]

Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures
Banjo-Kazooie 3
The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena

Games like these don't take themselves too seriously do they?

What?

So you're just gonna ignore me altogther. I see. Excuses, excuses, you just know I'm right.

Do you really think that people are looking forward to these 3 titles? Conan maybe a little bit, but now you're pusing it.

The beginning is the basic "Kickoff" for the console, but do consider this.
If the kickoff was good and the main plays stunk, the console sinks.
SO in other words, it must stay strong thoughout!

their is no future for A Wii 2.

I want you to save this and in twenty years look back and reflect on it.

[unriggable]

I don't really like the Wii, I play videogames to relax, and the Wii can't let me do that becuase you gotta be all over the place with your controllers.

At target or circuit city, when you buy a ps3 you get 5 free blue ray discs.


blue ray discs are $30 a piece which means

30*5=150

499(599)-150=349(449)


That is not expensive at all, especially when you take into consideration the big ass ps2 cost about that much when it came out and now you can buy it for 129 and half the size.

Ah, but I was saying how expensive the Blu-Ray player is, not the discs.
And you're quite right about the PS2.

Not really. Only some sports games make you do that (really only Wii Sports does as of now). Most games don't really make you work much (unless you consider having to aim a gun or turn a steering wheel work)

okay the ps3 is in a progressive decline, no question, and whether or not it falls out of gaming there's no coming back without a miracle.

I say its too early to tell who will win among microsoft and nintendo.
I think if it weren't for this red ring of death microsoft would be winning so nintendo dodged a bullet there, they just have to take advantage by not making any mistakes on their own, such as ignoring 3rd parties. Online, 360 is obviously dominating with the tried and true Live formula as well as new additions like the indie game maker-kabob. The Wii is slowly entering this field, with things like its own game maker, but more importantly, with one of the biggest multiplayer series of all time, of course I'm talking about smash bros, finally making its way to cyberspace.

that is all for now.

To summarize the quote, Sony is doomed in the gaming business if they fail to do a miracle.
Basically, it all turns out to be a Wii vs Xbox 360 work.
My prediction of the future: (Mind you, this is not always true) Nintendo will keep its whole building in the gaming business up while the microsoft foundation may be in jeopardy.
My reason for microsoft's jeopardized foundation: Halo 3 is perhaps the biggest gamble they pulled yet IMO, and if it fails miserably, that can basically put microsoft off the map about 80% of the way... (Meaning that microsoft would fall into sony's predicament with having to pull a miracle or be wiped out of the gaming industry)

[Minister Masket]

Warhawk on PS3 has a brilliant online feature. Enough to rival anything Microsoft can throw at us. For now....

Wrong. Microsoft will try again if the 360 fails.

I hope you know who owns Microsoft and how much money he has.

True they will try again, but suppose another big goof up occurs and they try again? This cycle will likely repeat itself if microsoft goofs up a lot.
Just an what if bit.

this "cycle" is actually a cycle among all the systems, history shows that all companies have made brilliant moves and all will make mistakes, its just this generation that nintendo has a turn to shine.

This generation is the basic time for wii to become famous like the NES and SNES and N64 and GC.
Brings a heart warming feeling there.

hahaha no.

GameCube was just an age of remaking great N64 classics like Mario Kart and Party and making them sucky.

yeah, that and establishing the fact that nintendo sucks at online.

You got the nintendoers there, but unfortunately the Wii has begun the same thing all over again.
But let us hope that it is not just another remake with SSBB and it have some more origionality.

[freezie]

It's popular because it's innovative. Motion sensor technology is the key to it's success. On top of that, it appeals to all demographics, unlike the PS3, which appeals to the rich nerd, something either nonexistent or in short supply.

Wrong. The wii style of play has been released over 15 years ago. With the power glove.

They just modernized it.

exactly, i'm sure there is a hugely anticpated wii game on the cards, and whats saying that won't live up to expectations
