Buzz, if they were going to have Ocarnia of Time, they would have clearly stated it along with the 3 they hyped up the most(Zelda(NES), Super Mario World, Mario 64)

Masta, most indications now are the the Wii will not have dvd playback abilities. Final spec releases do not show a dvd feature, so I think they are behind on that portion of it.

Nintendo also appears to be moving away from its GameCube-era "game consoles should be for games only" mantra. Besides the Wii's previously announced DVD playback abilities, the console will also have many multimedia functions, called "Wii channels." These media functions are demonstrated at length via a series of videos on the Japanese Wii Web site, which show off the Wii's weather channel, news channel, messaging services, and "Mii channel," which lets players create custom, cartoon-like avatars for use in games. The Wii will also let users upload and edit photos from SD memory cards and share them on the Web.

Nintendo has also announced that the classic NES, SNES, and N64 games downloadable to the Wii's Virtual Console would range from $5 to $10 in price, in line with most Xbox Live Arcade games. Some 30 titles will be available at launch, including unnamed installments from the Donkey Kong, Zelda, and Mario franchises, with a total of 60 arriving by the end of the year.

True, but not all games are released for PC, that's why consoles are good, and you'd have to buy an extremly expensive PC to play with console-like fps . :P

I'm not getting PS3. The only reason why I would is because of any continuation of the FF series - which already had its climax of good games, I might add.

Yeah I can't remember the last time I played my PS2, they're just not nearly as good as XBOX.

yea, that's why the Ps2 only sold 5 times as much. oh wait.

I don't see this affecting Sony much, they still have the two major markets. They have as good a launch lineup as 360 did, and have some great games coming out early 2007.


it sold more cos it was out alot longer before xbox even came out and it was running off the back of playstation 1 so people knew wot to expect but i personally think Microsoft have the upperhand now, Gears of War is gonna be xmas number 1 gift i guarantee it! :D i know im geting it, and PS3 will be alot of Xbox 360 ports for the first 6 months or so which is next xmas for people in europe.

Dont get me wrong i like the Ps2, i loved Shadows of the Collosus, possibly the best game ever made for a console, but Microsofts easy online play and the fact they are on DVD 9 and not a new media Blueray which will no doubt put the price of games to like $100 a game or so due to the price of the media.. i think xbox will be going strong

Most release day games are ports from xbox 360 :P developers were left hanging as to what media they was creating games for so most ran off to microsoft as it already has its console out. PS3 i cant see pulling it back tbh, Nintendo Wii is still out in novemeber so thats another console before the all powerful ps3 ,, bleh i like my xbox 360 ghost recon xbox live .. bliss..

Heard about it on Gamespot. I think it's not that bad that we PAL-users don't get the PS3 till march. Because many good games won't even be released before march and there is a possibility of a cheaper PS3 too. They can also fix some potential problems till then. :P

I still think the PS3 will be sold very good, becase all the good exclusive games it will have.
