When the fuck will you guys buy a true next-gen console? 
I mean, this is the month of GTA4, the biggest game of the year, and what do you do? Buy a wii!
| Code: |
Hardware
PlayStation 2 124.4K
PlayStation 3 187.1K
PSP 192.7K
Xbox 360 188.0K
Wii 714.2K
Nintendo DS 414.8K
Top 10 VG Titles - April'08
Units*
360 GTA IV 1.85mm
Wii Mario Kart w/ wheel 1.12mm
PS3 GTA IV 1.00mm
Wii Play 360K
Wii Super Smash Bros. Brawl 326K
PS3 Gran Turismo 5: Prologue 224K
DS Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness 202K
DS Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time 202K
Wii Guitar Hero III 152K
360 Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 141K

PS3 didn't actually lose out to the 360. When you take into account the margin of error it wins, and there's always the anti-sony conspiracy to consider. |

The margin of error. Yes.
This is the first timethe RDM has seen you post non-insane sales numbers.
Wii sales look inflated, though. No way they're dominating like that.

Well, I still haven't even bought a fake next generation console yet. I'm still loving my PS2 though.

You want me to spend , what, like 500 dollars to shut up Ward? Also, even if I bought a PS3 he'd still bitch about my taste in games.

| The fact that Mario Kart Wii sold so much means that people will buy anything Nintendo makes regardless of quality. |

Mario Kart Wii was pretty good. The silly controller thingy even works well.

I can't help feeling it would've been better with a SIXAXIS. |

Everything is better with SixAxis. Even when they're not.

Are you kidding me? The vast majority of reviews say this game works best with a mix of motion and traditional control. And that's precisely what Sixaxis is! |

As opposed to just motion controlled? How would you powerslide?
