Wii is great fun and a great way to excercise

Think we have every games console on the market in here including wii ps1 / 2/ 3/ x boxes ....but then we do have a 9 year old  

Well I considered buying the PS3 and saying "beat that!" but haven't got 500 quid spare at the moment.

its falling rapidly and sub £400 already so watch the market   oh and the games are crap right now

Well I want GT HD and a first person Doom like game, and possibly a flying game

ps3 wont be a winner untill the big games role out like gran turismo   i neeeed that game

i always tend to play games on my PC....

I did a project on the Wii, interesting console, with accelrometers and IR to calculate the remotes position, makes for some interesting games...

PS3 looks good and is powerfull, WiFi is great to, not sure its worth the extra over the xbox 360 though....

I want a PS3 as it is half the price of Panasonics BluRay player. However it does green screen via RGB for BluRay so is useless if you want to not buy DVDs since they are outmoded but still have an SDTV.

However AFAIK the Panasonic player downscales. but is a substantial chunk of my HDTV budget, I have an offer of free PS3 instead of DVD recorder if I buy the TV I mentioned earlier

I personaly am going to wait, its BetaMax / VHS all over again with BlueRay & HD DVD....

Agreed the xbox "Premium" is the one to go for, I hear rumours they will release a newer version to compete with PS3 (added WiFi) i think....

For the price of a PS3, you can get the Premium xbox 360 + a 20" LCD HD TV....

Looks under TV - yes a Beta deck (SLHF950 to upset the Beta fans) but BR looks like due to the PS3 it is outselling, and I hope it does better as 1) BR has a higher capacity, and 2) it is supported by the big companies like Pioneer, SOny and Panasonic

Judging by the trade press, the wholesalers are disappointed with PS3 sales...

Its the cost of the blueray player which pushes prices up, and at the last minite Sony removed a chip that makes it compatiable with many older games.

Also games are 'locked' to each console, so can't lend games to friends.... if Microsoft pull their fingers out and release a WiFi enabled xbox, they could easily take the market share....

Find a BR player for under 500 - it is a games console

Thats because it didn't work, and added about £100 to build costs.

MS do a Wireless adapter, so not a reason to release new console...

British Rail make blueray players?

Because the discs are not much more than DVDs and look a lot better and will look better than DVD when I get an HDTV
