Its not the posts on an internet forum that make me sad its the realization that most people in the world can't grasp thoughts that are -in my mind- very basic.

*facepalm*

Trying to pass opinion off as fact.

Ok, I'll take your bait.

So in your opinion the WII is better. But from an objective view the 360 and PS3 both are capable of far more than the WII (the PS3 more so than the 360) and the PS3 shipped with motion controls. Yeah, crappy sixaxis controller motion controlls Just because you play your WII more than 360 doesn't mean its better. I never said it was better as a fact. I said it was better to me. All it means is you are one of the people that finds that type of crap fun. Calling Wii games crap seems a bit childish, don't you think? It's all about opinion, I'll take a Mario game over a generic FPS any day The WII is targeted to pre-teens and seniors and it does a good job of entertaining their target demographics. Just because it is targeted to a specific group doesn't mean its use should only be in that group. I find Wii games to be enjoyable for all ages. The graphics the WII has are limited the controls are not precise in the least and worse of all very few of the WII games seem to be targeted at adults. Graphics do not equal a good game, the controls are much more percise than an anolog stick, and who cares what audience the games are for if they are fun? Nintendo has been milking the Mario series for 20 years. If the games are still fun and refreshing, I welcome new installments in a series. Now I am not saying that's a bad thing they are making money hand over fist but you speak of innovation, I seem to recall the EyeToy which gave motion control over the game in the PS2.....hmm who is copying who now. Eye toy is a completely different form of motion control.

Also, If posts on an internet forum make you sad, you are in for one sad life.

hahaha. This post made my day. Instead of making a huge post about how you are wrong in every way, I will just leave it to this.

There is no way to judge if a console is "better" than another one. It is all up to one's opinion. You can try to convince me all you want, but the Wii is better than the 360 to me, and that is all that matters.

What ever your reason for defending the the WII you cannot argue that the PS3 and even the 360 are better consoles. And you also cannot argue they are all shit compared to a PC.

I am not defending the Wii, no one is attacking it. I was simply pointing out the obvious similarities between the two control schemes.
Also, I can easily say the Wii is better than the 360. I play my Wii more than my 360. I have no need for generic shooters and racing games, basically the only thing 360 provides. Plus $60 just to play online now? I'll pass.

@ blue. It's called innovation. Microsoft is doing motion controls in a different way. Instead of copying what has already been done, one should create a new and better way to do something. I have no idea what that might be, but people are getting paid big bucks to think of these things, I'm not.

Who's to say Sony hasn't been planning this since the prior to the Wii release? It's pretty unlikely but the release of the Wii could have made them have to start from scratch to make something superior.

Sony didn't patent the technology until 2008, a full two years after the Wii came out. If they were working on a motion control system before the Wii, they would have patented the system back then.

Good at drawing seems to translate into neat handwriting in most cases. You seem to be the exception  :-X

hahahaha. My handwriting is terrible. I'm even worse at cursive. :X

mumble is VERY nice. I used it once while playing Battlefield 2 Project Reality, they have a server for events and stuff. When you install Project Reality, you can install mumble too, if you choose to install it that is.

How can you say that playstation move is not an attempt to copy the wii remote? It does THE EXACT SAME THING. It looks almost identical, with two parts, one for aiming and the other for moving. I know move is legally distinct from the Wii remote but come on, Sony obviously got their idea from the Wii remote.

Copy copy copy. Who cares who did it first? What matters is implementation. Sony could make a crappier version or a much better version. If they can pull it off, PS3/4 might be the best console out.

Playstation Move is already out. There really is no difference between move and the Wii controller. We just need to see what games Sony will announce to support it. It would be pretty sick playing Killzone 3 with Move.

Maybe I am being a bit biased since I do not own a PS3....

Very nice shading but it just looks weird. Too tall, it's almost like he's stretched out (or is he like 9ft tall?).

I was thinking the same thing when I looked at it, but I already drew most of it so I just said "fuck it." I'm not very good at drawing in the first place. I was surprised at how decent this turned out.

EDIT: I did trim down the torso length by just making you able to see more of his legs. A simple fix I never really thought of doing. Updated.

Took me about 30 minutes to an hour to draw.

At least I wouldn't have to see it while using it.  ;D ;D

Sony is copying off of the wii, except their device looks uglier.

It uses the sphere to track the motion of the controller. It's supposed to change color to be most visible in the current environment.

I know why it is there, I just hate the look of it.

Hell, I'd pay an extra $70 to have them remove the sphere.

hahaha

I think we can all agree that the Wii's draw isn't graphics. I hope that PS3 Move will be successful in combining the draw of the Wii with the draw of the PS3.

I hate the look of the remote. It has a stupid sphere on the top that looks horrible. Plus, move costs $70. Kind of a lot of money just for motion controls.
