Sure the xBox 360 has similar high-definition graphics, but no built-in wi-fi, no motion sensing controllers, no Internet browser, no memory card reader, no HDMI output and no Blu-Ray/
The Nintendo Wii is very unique, has better motion sensing controllers and a better online browser (Opera), but the graphic experience is absolutely abysmal on my HDTV. From what I've seen so far, I think old Super Nintendo graphics are superior at times, but to be fair I'm sure it looks great on an old tube tv. So basically I'm $250 paying for ONE superior motion sensing controller, a collection of mini-games, no high-definition output, an opportunity to purchase expensive downloadable OLD games from their online store, inferior graphics, creatable Miis that do nothing, no DVD playback, oh and the slot glows a cool blue when it needs an update! $250!!! For what? Forget it, wait until the price comes down to what it's actually worth or play it at the mall and get it out of your system. If you're buying one simply because you need exercise, I'm sorry you're an idiot.
When you finally decide to take that plunge into pure high-definition entertainment, be sure to add TheGreenHead as your friend and prepare for a total MotorStorm showdown! The Green Head Crew here at Headquarters take no prisoners! Also, be sure to check out some of the cool videos below to see some of the features we discussed above in action. I think you'll agree when you finally get one, that this thing truly is scary technology, almost like that silent black monolith in 2001, watching over you from the corner of the living room... -
