Can't wait to pick up my pre-ordered Wii on Thursday 
PS3 is still ~102 days away 
They called me today to tell me they're doing a midnight launch, may or may not do it

Wii
My son in the US tells me that the Wii is excellent, although it has to be, as it is competing against an entrenched Sony and Microsoft market. Now we have to see if the game makers push it to the limits, if it will make a viable competition against the big boys. I still think the name sux. The name Wii is too close to Poo.

Yeah, the Wii wont compete directly with MS or Sony, it will be like saying that Scrabble is competing with mousetrap.
1 is fun without seriousness, and the other is seriousness without fun, yet they are both games loved by many.

My mate who is in upper management at EB games says that he'll be surprised if we get the PS3 before August next year. That march launch date certainly isn't set in stone and sony keep pushing it back regularly.

EB are tossers.
I was at west lakes EB listening to the store guy there telling a customer why they should wait for the PS3.
"its got better graphics... and its more powerful... and its got some special disc drive with the new disc format which will replace DVDs... umm... umm.. i cant think of the name... blue something..."
Idiot.
I dont understand how they get any business when they sell all their console games at $20 more than any other store.
Hell.. i went to David Jones and bought a 360 game at normal price that was $40 lower than EB.

They arent owned by apple. This video was created by a mac users website to spoof both consoles.
Haha... If the apple was included in the comparison, it would be sitting in the corner with a video camera alone because nothing would work with it except multimedia software.
Piece of crap.

Meanwhile, the PC is sitting in therapy with a blue screen of death...
Screw the PS3, that thing has been delayed so many times its rediculous. Wii looks pretty cool, but I do like my old XBox, and would rather upgrade to the 360.

Theres only 3 reasons ever that I would buy a PS3.
1) Blu-Ray (its a cheap console/Next Gen DVD combo, considering most BluRay or HD DVD players are $1000 on their own)
2) Gran Turismo (yet to be beaten driving game)
3) Formula 1 titles, not yet available on Xbox.
