This console just sucks

€600 PS3 or €240 Wii ?

Look here, I just want to play, not buy a console that'll only be worth it on a 2 meters wide HD TV with ultra double max plus dolby surround live gold (tm) compatible speakers.

The Wii is kinda innovative, very reasonably priced and has _fun_ games as opposed to _realistic_ ones.

Games on my Sega Genesis/Megadrive weren't realistic, but hell were they fun.

Sony's getting it all wrong.

PS:

And don't get me started on game prices:

Wii: €40-60

PS3: €50-70 (more?)

Did I mention that the Wii is modchip'able so you can dump your very own games and play on DVD-R, as opposed to the very fragile original DVD your 4yo son is gonna disintegrate just by looking at it, and that the vendor won't replace ?
