As we all know, the next generation consoles is all the fuzz right now. At E3, in every single game magazine. So now is my turn to talk about this War. Ill start with the 360, since it is already out. Then the PS3 followed by the Rev.
Whoever is reading this has probably already read my review about the next gen. controllers. I didn't explain the consoles themselves that much. Here I go. The Xbox 360 hit the shelves late 2005. People were so surprised it came that early. Stores sold out immediately. Many people had already reserved their 360's so they could get them with no problems. I read some reviews about it by some magazines and there appears to be some problems and upsides, like any console you can think of. The 360 has badass graphics that might only be compared with PC graphics. I played Call of Duty and that smoke looked incredible. The controller is somewhat smaller and more comfortable. The 360 can have its cover (or plates, whatever) taken off to put new better looking ones. It has the Xbox live program and everything. It's good to go.What the hell is up with the 360 only reading Platinum hit games though. It can't play all Xbox games unless it has been a good seller. Something like that but it doesn't play all of them.Alsoheard a rumor that the 360's game discs don't have enough space for certain long games. They said that certain games are going to come with more than one disc, kinda like what SONY did with the PS1. Im not sure of this info but it wouldn't be good if it is true. The 360 runs for around 300$ and is a pretty worthwhile console. Those eager for next generation go buy this, now.
The PS3 might be even more anticipated than the 360's release. There is still some wait in it also. November is the release. E3 gave all the info about it. One thing worrying people about the PS3 was Blu rays. They are very expensive. $800 bucks. So people thought that it was going to be that expensive. The PS3 is going to be out with two versions. The 20 GB PS3 for $499 and the 60 GB for $599. Of course, the 60 GB is going to have more stuff in it. I forgot the details. They released some game graphics at the show and they are great! They beat the 360s easily! Madden 07 looks badass. Metal Gear Solid 4 is one of the most anticipated. I cant wait for it! The graphics are simply great. Other games are coming out to like Final Fantasy X-///, hopefully a FF VII, and Warhawk. A new Gran Turismo game and some others. One of the great things of SONY at E3 was that it finally changed the controller. Yes!! The prototype scared people away but now they made the real one which looks much like the original controllers. Slight differences. Wireless, motion sensors( kinda like the Wii), and more space for the joy sticks. No more rumble because it screws up the motion sensors. Also, something i forgot to mention, it will have three different colors. Black, platinum, and i think white. Each game disc contains its own 54 GBs. PS3 will have online like x box and will kinda be like a computer. It will be a powerful console. Without a doubt, its going to be successful like its big brother.
The Wii, wich name was changed all of the sudden. personally, Revolution was better. Anyway, the Wii has a lot of f****** potential. The contoller is Nintendo's secret weapon. The graphics are clearly improved, better than Ps2, but the controller....thats the money maker. Personally, i would love to play a Star Wars game with the controller. The graphics are bright but not competitive.Easily the underdog at that. Also, the Wii is $250 dollars with multiple colors.He wins the price war. Popular games for Wii are among: Super Smash Brothers Brawl( introducing MGS's Snake and special attacks), Red Steel( 1st person shooter that is great for the controller),and Super Mario Galaxy( actually a platformer). Im buying the Wii along with the PS3.Both Sony and Nintendo have the things i want, like super smash brothers and Kingdom Hearts along with the FF's. Not only does the Wii have some decent games about to come out, it has mega backward compability, so you can download for a small fee the oldest games from the NES and SEGA. You can also download games from tha 64. In other words, all of the Wii's ancestors. On top there are for controller ports for gamecube controllers, since the Wii plays gamecube dics. I look forward to this console.
In conclusion, f*** yeah! The consoles will all be here by the end of the year and the next generation will arrive. I dont think the 360 having a head start is going to help it much. A bright future of gaming is close.The war will begin. Start gaming.
