The price just hurts. Really. It's like $700 CDN for the non-gimped version. Oh wait, how many of us have HD-compatible TV's? I mean new ones, as the older models have problems as well? That's right. No one. That'll be $700 + $2000 for the PS3 to not look like absolute shit. I mean, if I wanted to, I could get a nice set-up going on, but I don't want to. Not right now, at least. And probably not for a few years.
The Wii? Meh, I think it's interesting. The service they have that lets you download old Nintendo and Sega games is a good concept, but not enough to win me over. The only games for the console itself that are remotely interesting is the new Zelda and the FFXIII spin-off that will come later on down the line. The rabid fanboyism though is just sickening. It's really everywhere and I'm so fucking tired of it; almost to the point where I'm hoping the system fails just to take those people down a few pegs.
The site I just linked you to point out the video where they buy a PS3 and smash it with a sledgehammer in front of all the Best Buy campers. I found it somewhat amusing but the reactions weren't all that great.
Yeah, I want a 360 at the moment because of this: http://www.tri-ace.co.jp/ The big picture in the middle. Yeah. I love this company. :/
