nintendo appeals to younger kids with more cartoonish games, while the 360 appeals to older crowds with the popular shooters like halo and gears of war

I commonly here this steriotype. It's very untrue, the Wii has had far worse and more profane games than the 360. Like Manhunt and new games like No More Heroes coming out. Nintendo is frequently trying to counter this steriotype but people don't notice. Some of there most succesful series are for hardcore gamers and are violent like Metroid and most importantly Smash Bros. The only reason people notice Microsoft as more "adult" is because it's top selling game is rated M.

If the PS3 drops anymore in price, then the other systems are in trouble. The PS2 did so well because Sony tied in its success to DVDs. Having a DVD player and game system in one is why I bought my PS2. Blue Ray has more movie company's on hand than HD-DVD at this point. So eventually, If there are enough Movies and TV shows on Blue-RAy, then the PS3 will start to become the system in peoples minds when they want a home console.
im glad you know more facts then me :) helps me alot thanks

The problem is the PS3 isn't the PS2, it's not opperating under the same circumstances. It didn't come otu before all the other systems, it doesn't have any exceptionaly good games and many of it's most favored prospects have already changed systems. Sony should stop making game systems and make a movie and music system. They made one already called the PSP.

Ooohhh you didn't just say that....

Well, I suppose Manhunt 2 is great for kids.

And Viva Pinata is as hardcore as it can get.

No problem lol.

But the wii is selling so well right now because everyone wants one. Kids want it because it has a lot of kid games. Parents want it for their kids because its seen as a safe and non threatening console and they like to be able to play with their kids. And even Grand parents want it because they get to exercise and interact with their children and grand children.

but see come on where be the fun in that, Ps always been competetive against nintendo intill xbox came from no where. I mean if you think about it PS is an old group just like Nintendo. Sure there a bit behind on favor games coming out but give it time. I could see the point when the price drops down it would get peoples attention. plus playstattion in the middle of both adult and kids type of games. Always has been.

You're basically saying Sony deserves to keep going because they've earned it for being in the fray so long. Unfortunatly for them that's not how it works.
