The Wii is the better video game console.

Awesome, -So first I will start with rebuttals and counter-attacks, then move on to my own case in each. 1) Price: Although the PS3 may be outrageously expensive, we must look at these consoles evenly. The PS3 makes up for its price by including an additional blu-ray DVD system. It's the only console that is capable of playing blu-rays. If one were to get a Wii, but wants to watch blu-ray, they would have to spend and additional 300$ minimum. As my opponent listed from his source "Blu-ray's victory over HD DVD." Blu-ray is the future and the PS3 is a good investment. So if you were to look at this the PS3 would cost less then the Wii if you subtract the Blu-ray. http://www.guardian.co.uk... "Merrill Lynch has published a note on Sony's PlayStation 3 that prices the parts at an estimated $800*" In fact although the PS3 may seem expensive, you can actually make money more money by selling it in pieces. If we were to consider overall pricing, by buying the PS3 you are actually getting more money. 2)Controller: I agree that the Wii does have the revolutionary design of remote sensing, but that is because the whole idea of the Wii was meant to be designed that way. The PS3 makes a comeback though with a new recent design, that is PS3's motion controller which is even more accurate then the Wii. There classic dual shock controllers also have simple remote sensing. Even though most games don't incorporate it, it is sometimes used. If we were to look at all the controllers though the PS3 would dominate with its USB port and blue-tooth connection. The PS3 is able to use the traditional keyboard and mouse, practically anything that uses USB, and many blue-tooth devices. Not only that but the battery life of the standard sixaxis will last 30 hours on one charge. http://news.cnet.com... 3)Games: Currently almost every console has better games than the PS3. Remember that the PS3 did come out late leaving more time for both Xbox and Wii to develop and come out with their exclusives. If you look at the PS3 though, currently or in the future many exclusive titles will be hitting the PS3. Games such as MGS and Grand Turismo. Games that are designed for PS3 cannot even be compared with games such as the Wii or Xbox. http://www.metacritic.com... http://www.pcworld.com... http://www.pcworld.com... 4)Versatility: Nothing compares with all the additional crap they put on the PS3 and what it can be used for. Even its wireless controllers can be rigged do other electronic operations. http://www.pabr.org... http://www.physorg.com... 5)Technical Trouble Already Sony has released updates for the PS3 to fix many problems, and will continue to do so. Now if your looking at trouble though we should look towards pirating, and hackers. Recently news has shown that the PS3's firmware has been cracked, but even though it has been cracked it isn't worth it. PS3 shows though that it is a beast "the PS3 is a completely different beast. The PS3's firmware has already given us gems like enhancing backwards compatibility and DVD upscaling. Likewise, new games will require a system to have the newest firmware installed in order to be booted (just like PSP games)."
