Thrix Posts: 5 GumPoints: 11	So with the "next generation" of consoles (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii) now officially released worldwide, what one have you gone with? Personally I'm tossing between the PS3 and the Wii. Obviously one overpowers the other in terms of performance and graphics, but the Wii seems to have a tremendously fun method of playing. Thoughts?

I'm currently playing Harvest Moon Magical Melody on the Gamecube, Final Fantasy V on the GBA, and I love quick little computer games so this site will keep me busy for a while. I plan to get a Wii eventually. Other than the N64, I've always had Nintendo consoles. Blue Dragon makes me want a 360. PS3 doesn't seem that interesting to me at the moment, but there are still several RPGs that I want to play on the PS2, so I don't see the need for the new system yet.

I had to have it but then for some reason I tested the 360 out and found that the graphics were the same even though they were a different console. 360 was a whole lot cheaper than the ps3 with the same setup. So I went for the 360. I also realized that if you don't have a freakin HD t.v, the graphics aren't going to be as tight anyway on neither.
