I worked for Best Buy during the gamecube launch and the Nintendo rep. ( A NINTENDO EMPLOYEE ) said the Wii would be their last system and they would be a 3rd party game manufactorer only, after it. So they are here to stay, but no longer making game systems. Microsoft has Master Chief, Sony has Solid Snake and Kratos, and Nintendo has a fat plumber and an elf.


AH YES, because a random representative from nintendo knows all the plans that nintendo has for the future. people who do that sort of thing dont know jack. they are just there to do their job. the only actual information they know is rumors they hear at the office. if you believe him, why didnt you believe the countless xbox "representatives" that said halo 3 would release at the end of this year? or that halo 2 would release on the next xbox?

these representatives seem to have a way of going around spreading rumors that people take as though it came straight from an official source that is trustworthy. either that or people misinterpret what they say.

nintendo is quite clearly going to put up a fight this generation. last generation they were content in sitting back and being trampled. this generation, they have some truly innovative ideas that arent innovative just for the sake of being innovative, but because it can open up new possibilities for gameplay. the low price point, numerous high quality first party titles, and classic game services are going to keep nintendo in a better place than they were in last gen.

the thing is, you can buy a xbox 360 and a wii for about the same price as a ps3. this is a very good deal and is why I personally have chosen the wii60 stance. while ps3 and xbox360 loyalists on each side ar at each other's necks, the nintendo remains a rather neutral system. both the reasonable ps3 owners and the reasonable xbox360 owners see the nintendo wii as a nice complement to their original system.

btw, imo, windwaker was the best zelda game to come out in a long time. it was even better than ocarina of time! I think nintendo is here to stay.

IRT topic, the halo 3 will not really hinder ps3 sales terribly, but a nice xbox 360 + halo 3 + live combo for less than the price of a premium ps3 by itself is a nice deal and will probably draw away the casual gamer towards the 360 as well as parents looking for a system for their child. that or they'd go with the wii.

That's awesome. Morgan Webb is -blam!- hot.

I strongly Agree.

I did forget to mention something about PS3 that I saw someone else mention. Sony was greatly thinking about making the games playable only on one system meaning that games could not be traded in, rented, or anything like that.

EA signed a contract that all of their future games would be for sony 1 year before any other system. look it up. The 1st Nintendo had core system written in big red letters along the bottom of the box. I dont like Nintendo anymore because of the juvenile games, not their stupid 2 handed controller. I know your eighteen, what does that have to do with anything....unless your stiil playing Pokeman!!! OMG If graphics dont mean anything to you, why do you think Gears of War looks like more fun than Halo? Is Halo not fun enough for you? If so, why are you here? We'll see how stupid I look when 10 years from now your raising your Nintendogs puppy on a $1,200.00 PS4. lol

I believe that was proven false, but the fact that Sony is calling the PS3 a computer will be the killing blow IMO.

You must had been on cracked cause' i have my cousins first Nintendo box i see no core system written on it.

I know your eighteen, what does that have to do with anything....
well what does you being 50 and calling me junior have to do with anything? Besides you told me i was suppose to be 17 to play halo like if i was younger. Again go to school bring your reading comprehension levels up!!! Or maybe its just your old age you cant remember things as well.

unless your stiil playing Pokeman!!!

I'am at a loss of words for that sentence. What the hell are you talking about?? When did i say i liked Pokemon?

OMG If graphics dont mean anything to you, why do you think Gears of War looks like more fun than Halo

Cause' it involves more stratagy like hiding behind pillers, or ducking behind wreckage for cover. Besides you could carve your intials on someones face with a saw!! and on multiplayer if your teammate dies he calls for a medic and you have a chance to save them. But you can die in the process. To be a hero or not???

I didnt say OMG!!! when i fire i see the light reflection of my characters face!!! I must have the game so i can drool over the graphics. And i didnt say it was more fun i said it "LOOKS" i cant say that it is i havent played it..

Is Halo not fun enough for you? If so, why are you here?
see why i said no offence?? Alot of people take what you the wrong way.. but especially those with low reading comprehensions.

We'll see how stupid I look when 10 years from now your raising your Nintendogs puppy on a $1,200.00 PS4. lol

........ Right........ Good for you.......

I think the thing that will do in the PS3 is it's $700 dollar price tag. helped by Halo 3 and Gears of war.

I think a lot of people will still buy the ps3 just because of its name and fanboys. But I think the x360 has a better chance to compete and probably things will be more even in numbers.

I think you should burn your halo disc for wanting something this skill free, host dependent, repetative, stupid, and overall bad. I hope you burn in the hottest fires of hell for presenting such a terrible idea. In conclusion, jesus died for everyone but you.

well, let me make something very clear. anyone who would spend $600??!!! to get the ps3 either has way too much money to blow or ar just plain stuuuupid. as far as i'm concerned, the cons far outweigh the pros in this case. the soon coming of halo3 is just icing on the cake

Halo 3 might be on PS3, but, it depends if people just want Halo 3, they would choose the 360. If some other people want Halo 3 and other games (Fun ones), They would buy PS3, see which one is worth it. PS3? or Xbox 360? Xbox 360: There are only a few fun games PS3: LOADSA GAMES

I would still choose Xbox 360 because i hate Sony

  • 06.25.2006 4:02 AM PDT

Halo 3 will counter the PS3 launch, and it will NEVER show on the PS3. Microsoft bought out Bungie, so it will only be on PC and Xbox.

i am at a loss for words....no one said H3 was coming out on both, learn2read. also, learn2write. this kids, is why the internet will be the downfall of the world. people like this will grow up and teach their children how to write, and so on and so forth, until one day schools will wtf teech hw to rite n tipe reel f4st roflcopter.

btw, i already own a 360, but even if i didn't, i would buy one along with a wii if i needed to spend that much money. game informer reported a rumor that ps3 is pissing off some of its 3rd party producers, and some of their excluseives may come out on 360 as well (like assassins creed and another i dont recall atm).

360>wii>ps3
360+wii>all

Bill Gates said that Halo 3 could go on PS3 on previous articles, and i DO know how to write ok? Maybe it's that you can't read...

Keep on fraggin'

The PS3 is not going to be put aside by MS, let alone by H3. Most of the people who had an Xbox bought the Xbox360. Most of the people that owned a PS2 are patiently waiting for the PS3 and will buy that.

600$ is a lot of money, but it's not a lot more than the PS2 (about 550$ in Europe) when that came out. So price isn't the issue, people will be prepared to pay 600$ for a PS3, don't worry about it. And in my opinion Sony will keep it's market share at least untill the next generation of consoles.

The fact that Sony didn't have a lot of triple A titles to show at the E3 isn't that surprising either. They just need some more time. Besides, what great launchgames did the Xbox360 had? None, PGR3 was probably the only one worth the money. Now Xbox360 has some great titles, but that's quite a while after it's launch.

There's just not much point in saying "that console isn't going to be any good" and "my console is a hell of a lot better". There was no point in comparing Xbox with PS2, nor is there any point in comparing Xbox360 with PS3. Both systems have their loyal userbase. Both are potent systems with good games, and both will sell.

if you have a choice between an xbox 360 and Halo 3 or a PS3 and you choose the PS3 then you can take it and stick it up your ass

The future looks bright for who? Nintendo?? I suppose thats why the Wii is goig to be their last system and they almost didnt make the Wii. I saved my allowance when I was 9 to buy the first Nintendo. The core system. Nobody hated to see what happened to them more than I did. I still own Zelda T-Shirts. I do look forward to the release of the new Zelda, but only because its being released on the gamecube. The windwaker stunk, it looked like a cartoon. Majoras Mask was more repetitive than my job. The last Mario was ok, but nowhere near as good as all the first ones. Anything good that Nintendo did died in 1999 when they decided to not grow up with their audience. Of course their cheaper. Mommy and Daddy aren't goit to spend $800 on a TOY for a little kid to play Pokeman on. Nintendo is dead, and I do mourn their loss. If sony didnt have more than 5 system selling games ( not games like Red Steel ) they wouldn't be the best selling console. and they are 2-1


are you some kind of idiot? no i am being serious. Nintendo will be making consoles for a long time, they made a profit on the gamecube compared to Sony and MS who made losses on their consoles, gasp. I have got an xbox 360 and it ROCKS!!! i might get a nintendo Wii for christmas and i will buy the PS3 in a few years time. i want these games for my Xbox 360:

F.E.A.R
Halo 3
Dead Rising
Gears of War
Table Tennis
Haze

that is what i can think of at the moment but i will edit this when i can think of them all.

The PS3 is going to be destroyed because they got rid of their crescent moon looking controlloer and replaced with a silver PS2 controller. Also people though 360 had better graohics and games. PS3 was under hypers (deserved it it sucks) too expensive, and Halo 3 has been hyped for like 2 years already!
