PS3 = 360 > Wii.
The Wii exists to funnel cash into Miamoto’s whore house. Hardly amy good games come out for it now that are competitors with games on the 360/PS3, as Nintendo is pretty much doubling the revenue of microsoft and sony.
PS3 and 360 are pretty much the same in terms of experience as of right now. I would get the one that all my friends have. PS3 has a lot of potential, but it hasn’t been shown yet. The 360 is pretty old, but it still runs like a champ. As for the LIVE statement, its not necessarily true just because of the price.
The 60$ go to paying for dedicated servers provided by microsoft which sony doesnt do, updating the Marketplace every wednesday, and making sure your connection doesn’t die off. I want to get a PS3 because of the things it can do, and Ive had a chubby for Uncharted 2 for the longest time.
But all in all, both consoles are equally awesome.
