Then the company finds out they can't quite deliver what they said they would to the magazines, etc. the previous year. But then the console launches early anyway because delaying it another year would kill the company if their 2 main competitors have had next gen. systems out already for years in Microsoft's case.

So with the launch everyone's disappointed because the only game on PS3 that's any good that they couldn't get on their 360 Box is Resistance: Fall of Man and beyond that everything else is buggy.

A year ago I was kicking myself in the ass for spending so much money on a new HDTV so I could play my $400 Xbox "the right way." But now that stronger games (that were supposed to be launch titles ) are coming out it's becomming more fun.

Give PS3 a year and I think it'll shape out. That's when I'll buy one!
These issues are not launch "technology" issues, they are "legality" issues.. and SOny has chosen to not play along - the result is less funtional features than a PS1...
I think in about a year or so, this problem will probably be fixed..

Still, the Wii is a great gaming system. Very fun, but definitely for younger audiences, or ppl who don't hold a grudge against "cute" characters
