And of course ignore what i was Saying. I MEANT VISUAALLY between the 2
Hmm...Dunno, never played COD 1...no idea what it looked like.
You on the other hand are either vastly underrating the difference 3D makes, or you are wearing fanboy glasses yourself and can't admit that 3D rulz (would be strange as Sony likes 3D, too).
3D serves it's purpose but like motion controls that purpose is limited and best used for certain occasions...not as a staple of a systems usage. I'm actually quite disappointed by how much the entertainment industry (not just video games) are trying to force 3D on everyone.
3D on some games is fine and dandy, makes for a fun experience...others...it's pointless and should never be used. Now you can of course turn off the 3D effect for games one may feel that way about on the 3DS but then the console loses what makes it unique.
If your impressed by 3D that's fine, many people are. Myself, I was impressed for about 10 minutes (sarcasm) then realized that as I said it's the same as motion controls and needs to be used in moderation...at times it can be quite annoying.
I don't "crave" LBP; it looks odd and, well, bad, not to mention I don't like the controls. That's my opinion, which goes to prove that if one console is perfect for one person, another is just as good for a different person. As for the Wii games, yes, there are a plethora of bad games, but don't you think we should be counting the good games (which there are many of)? I don't think you would count the bad games and exclude the good games when saying the PS3 is good, so what you do or don't do to one console, you should do or don't do to another: that applies to comparing anything. I don't get why some people are so biased. . .
I did count the good games and I also did state that the PS360 have bad games as well as the Wii. The point I was trying to make was how much the game library of the Wii was hurt by small developers flooding the system with crap games to try and make easy money. The Wii more than any other recent Nintendo console is very dependent on Nintendo's first party software. There are SOME quality 3rd party titles but nowhere near the amount you'll find on other consoles and a vast majority of the actual quality titles on the Wii are 1st party games. Now if a game is good it doesn't really matter if it's 1st, 2nd, or 3rd party but what such dependence on 1st party titled does mean is that aside from traditional 1st party franchises it limits the library on the system. One could easily say (and many Nintendo fans do) that it just means that Nintendo has Mario, Zelda, Kirby, DK, etc...all their franchises while Sony and Microsoft don't...but one could also come right back and say that while Sony and Microsoft don't have Nintendo's 1st party franchises, they have everything else while Nintendo (for the most part) only has their 1st party franchises.
To clarify, that is obviously speaking in general and like I said there are exceptions and there are some quality 3rd party titles for the Wii but it would take a fool to argue that they are anywhere near as abundant as they are on the PS360.
Anyway, on the original topic, I don't think consoles are better by the graphics, but they're better by what kind of games you want. The PSV is perfect for some people, and the same can be said for the 3DS; it all depends on what kind of taste you have in gaming.
I get what your saying by saying that you don't feel consoles are better by the graphics but I disagree. While a game doesn't need spectacular (or even good) graphics to be a great game, the console supporting those high level graphics grants more options for different types of games in various different settings (including the so called "ultra-realistic" settings). A console with limited graphics also limits a developers options when it comes to a games setting and intention. Games may not need great graphics to be great but with certain types of games (like games set in the real world) it does help increase the experience.
Your other point I completely agree with, it depends on a persons personal taste.
Myself I'd prefer Vita because it will easily offer the better RPG and Sports collection and while I'm not a big FPS fan I do usually like to have one (only one) for the occasional desire to shoot someone (most recently it was MAG before I sold my PS3) and with some franchises I do buy the game, beat it, then trade it in because I like the story (Resistance 1 and 2 being the most recent examples). Others who prefer Mario, Zelda, DK, Kid Icarus, etc...(Nintendo's 1st party software) should go with the 3DS.
I'd also personally prefer Vita because as I've stated in other threads I'm just a sucker for flashy high tech stuff, lol.
Either way, I'm not spending $250 on a handheld, neither are worth that much. Once Vita drops significantly I may consider getting involved in the handheld world but not before then.
