yes, it does, and this time, Microsoft wasn't stubborn to FORCE you to buy a DVD controller, you can use a game controller.

is it sad that the fastest moving thread on this CAr forum in a long time is about video games?

hey 87 turbo II, i noticed that too...lol.. we're at what, like 11 posts now, in just under 6 hours.. lol...

but i just dont like the Wii, sure, the idea of it is cool and all, but i just dont like how everything is motion sensitive... im sure it would be fun at first, but it would get boring eventually...
ive had my PS2 for over 3 years now, and i still love it, but technology advances, and its time for a new console, imo.

and dr4g0n, i have a small bedroom, and i have to sit on the end of my bed to play video games... my tv is about 3 feet away from me... so there isnt nearly enough room to be moving around...

and ive heard that as people move the controller around, they accidentally let it go, or is slips out of thier hand, and flies... right into thier tv....
i would just much rather have a  remote in my hands, like the PS2's...
anyways, back to the original topic.... xbox 360 or PS3????

my girl wanted a wii, I went into one of those EB store, the guy there said if I could find one, they prob go for like $250..... and then I asked him, what about the PS3, he said, people wouldnt take them if we gave them away..... I guess they are just out of people's reach. $600 for a system is a bit steep. thats half of a BP motor for my slow hatch

yes LOZ your right. lol im saving my money for my paint job, then next tax season is my BP turbo motor

anyhow you can plug a controller in and play just like normal. well plug it into the wiimote.

If i could get a wii i would. they are fun. and nothing like playing a racing game and having to the the controller.

I already annoy my wife enough with the click-click-click of the buttons..She'd flip out if I was moving around using a Wiimote.  No thanks.

I really like the fact that PS3 didn't mess with the controller.  I like my PS2 controller configuration just fine.

yeah, when the first showed the prototype, the ps3 controllers looked gay... but im happy they stuck with the old design.... but they're wireless now, so theyre even better

The PS3 is also not leaps and bounds beyound the 360, yes it has a few upgrades, but if you aren't connected to an HD TV, with HD cables, it doesn't matter. Both systems have reached a point graphically, that you'll need to upgrade the TV to see a significant change. Also, the 360 handles itself pretty well with 3 dual core processors each at 3.2 Ghz. It's pretty rediculous already, you don't need more than that for superriorly smoth gaming. 20 gig is planty of space, any Xbox one owner knows it is hard to fill that drive (like super hard, I could never get it below the starting "8,000+ blocks" (starts with 8,750 soemthing but just starts telling you when you drop below 8,000) and that was only an 8 gig hard drive. the new 360 with harddrive is 20 gig. Plenty.
