Ha ha, nice joke.
All kidding aside, my paragraph was rife with bad jokes. Nothing wrong with a bad joke or two every now and then.

Well. Look at that score.
The PS2's price in comparison to the Wii is just too much of a deal breaker for most people.The PS3 is truly "I really cannot justify paying X amount of dollars on this thing. No matter how good the graphics are."
Halo is the perfect symbol for Xbox, in that its enjoyable with a group, but damn is it a boring grind of cliche and rehash. Xbox is the conspicuous consumption machine.
Wii is the "Well we better try something new or we will be run out of the system race". Personally, I chose the Wii. And im hoping nintendo isnt creating a gimmick machine.

Actually, I've heard the guy responsible for the RE series was enthusiastic about making at least one game for the Wii. However, it might not be Resident Evil 5.

Granted, it seems like the Ninendo DS has had a higher percentage of gimmick games, so that may justify Sony saying "gimmick machine", but those games were from studios that normally churn out shit anyway. Have you played Need For Speed for DS?! Made me sick! 
But the developers that did put some effort into their games made great, innovative ones. So Sony can stick their corporate thumb up their corporate ass, because the DS sells better quarterly both here and in foreign countries.

Already reserved a Wii, might get a 360 later on and get a PS3 for free when they all break and I fix it, same way I got all the other Sony systems.

I probably typed that wierd. What I meant is that the PSP and PS2 (and PS1 in some cases) I got for free because my friends/someones broke and I fixed them and got to keep them. PS1 drive probs, PS2 DRE's, PSP cracked screen, etc. Maybe PS3 will repeat the trend.

I guess it depends on your personality, but my biggest issue with the Wii is that I simply don't FEEL like moving all over the place while playing a videogame.
When I play, I lounge back in my La-Z-Boy, controller in my lap, and don't move except to eat or occasionally scratch myself.
From what I understand, not all of the games will function with the Wii-mote, but in that case, I'd rather get the more powerful system.
On a slightl y different topic, I don't have an HDTV, and won't for quite some time, so the graphical differences between the PS3 and Xbox360 are irrelevant to me.
