Someone emailed me earlier this week about why I talk about the Wii and the 360, but don’t say anything about the Playstation 3. There is a simple answer, at this point in time, I don’t see any reason to own one. Yes, it has wireless bluetooth controllers that are motion sensitive and it comes packed with a Blu-Ray disk drive. Well I don’t know if Blu-Ray will win the console war, and there aren’t enough games for it that I am interested in. Lair looks good, but from what I’ve read the controls are sloppy. Resistance: Fall of Man looks too much like Gears of War for me to get excited about, and the only game that I would actually want is Warhawk, and I cannot justify buying a console for one game.
I was a Sony fan long after they announced the Playstation 3. It was the price that made me turn away from them. Plus the Playstation 2 online was difficult to succumb to. Xbox 360 has the addition of a simple online service and the addition of the a gamer score, pretty much has the online play covered. Yes Playstation online is free, but I would rather pay as long as I don’t have to pay as muchas the Playstation 3.
