10 PS3 Games That Will MURDER The 'Wii' Virtual Console;

A List Of PS3 Games That Will Murder The Wii
Category: Games

By William Usher


At first it may have seemed as if we had a lot of support for the Wii. But over time it became apparent that this poor little hardware-fad wasn't going to receive any real games for quite some time. Worse yet, it may be a docking station for casual games alone. The PS3, however, can stage a final assault on the Wii with a fall line-up that could turn the tide of its media reputation.

Hands-down, the PlayStation 3 cannot catch the Wii in hardware sales for this year or next year. Fad or not, even if the Wii loses steam this fall, there's still Mario Galaxy, Mario Party 8 and Metroid Prime 3 (amongst others) that will easily pick up the slack and put the Wii

I like No.1, 7, and 10...if they only released GTA4 at the same date as the PS3, PS3 could have won the wars...

they forgot final fantasy XIII -.- .

thats not the only games would **** Wii. and the guy who wrote this article is pretty stupid by not putting the game that actually make playstation worth to buy which is Metal gear Solid 4 .

and the number 3 game will fail since i saw the video and the camera of the game is f***** annoying and also the attks r so repetative .

MGS4 was delayed till next year.

The guy is writing about games that are coming out this year.

well sorry about that but some of the games in that list r not really that interesting -.-

The Wii is already being ***** by game reviewers. Parents who aren't familiar with gaming just buy it for their 10 year old children now.

Hah, points for how you put it. I do think some of these games are sexy looking and I'm glad you posted 'em for a preview, but I can't see the Wii budging.

To be honest, I don't think the PS3 will murder the Wii because of one reason: the PS3 is $600. Wii, $250 dollars. Simple economics. Sure, the PS3 has better graphics, more games, etc, etc, but the Wii is cheaper. I don't want flashy, I want fun. Truth be told, I've never even touched a PS3... Because I don't need to! The Wii is fun enough that I don't need to spend an extra six hundred dollars (outrageous for a console!) on another game system. My Wii, and Xbox 360 are all I need for a fun, relaxing time. Also, Nintendo consoles have been, and always will be, party consoles.

Could it be possible that he might have put that there, but still made the entire article biased with his fanboyism?

:O!!!

Final Fantasy XIII
Star Ocean 4 (I admit to being a SO fangirl)
White Knight
Kingdom Hearts 3
Thats all I know...

I just can't wait for my overly recycled Mario Party 8 and Metriod.

i don't think there will be a kingdom hearts 3. but WHITE KNIGHT STORY = GG PWNAGE. it's going to whipe out all 360 fanboy's little puny crappy blue dragon game out of the surface of the earth. and ff13 and ff13versus = gg pwnage all 360 games. mgs4 = 360 raper, it's going to **** the 360 and their fanboys to death. and mutilate them.

I keep seeing all this stuff about Star Ocean 4, but how to they even plan on continuing that series after Tri Ace shit all over the universe they created with the ridiculous plot twist in Star Ocean 3?

By the way, FFXIII is not going to be out in English for years and years, so stop it.

yeah.

and one question, if gta4 is multi platform, why will it only boost the sales of the most expensive console it is on? why not the $200 cheaper xbox 360?

Ive seen jakuza and about 90% of his posts knock some other console, or say how good some piece of hardware in the ps3 is.

right, in retalliation, how can the ps3 compare to the fun in super smash bros, or project hammer, or wario ware. Or the rpg prowess that is Legend of Zelda. The ps3 may have the graphics, but the wii has the gameplay. and by the standards of people like you, will have a much better online community.

If lair isn't multi-platform then I'm going to have to buy a PS3. Another thing, WHY THE **** ISN'T ASSASSINS CREED UP THERE?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Dead eyes answer me this what can the Wii do that the PS3 can't?

Nothing. Even gimmicky controller aspect of the Wii is implemented in the PS3's SixAxis. If PS3 wanted to it could realse games just like whats on the Wii.

Now, what can the PS3 do that the Wii can't? Hahaha just look.

What i honestly can't understand tho is on the gaming forum people arn't willing to accept the future of gaming, the PS3, over something quite frankly stuck in the stoneage, Wii.

Honestly in the aspect of gameplay has Nintendo ever really attempted at moving on all that far from the Nintendo 64?


P.s check out how much a stand alone blu-ray reader would cost you http://www.google.co.uk/products?q=B...oogle&ct=title. And a ps3 doesnt come with that.

this apoc here is one hell of a fanboy ... its was little about the console, but more about the games. Once again, sales numbers don't lie ... jesus ... seems like more people prefer the cheaper Wii and their more innovative and fun games ...

Wii will always beat the ps3. Its far better in price range and fun. sure gfx are better on ps3 but most normal people would rather buy the more modestly priced X-box 360 or the wii.

Also might i say that Wii will also have a list of games that will dominate the ps3.

Sorry Trisomy but did the N64 have a list of games that dominated the PS1? No. Did the Gamecube have a list of games that dominated the PS2? No. History repeats it's self.

Silly silly boys, maybe you'll understand by contrast in reaction your friends make when u invite them round for some Wii and the reaction that you and your friends make when you go round to someone's house for some Ps3.

It isn't fan-boyism either Cinderboy its simple common sense; why have silver when you can get gold.

I think that you guys think this is a gfx vs gameplay argument. This simply isnt the case, when you get to play on the demo of Ninja Gaiden Sigma you will be so gutted that you didn't get a Ps3.

If anything arguing gfx vs gameplay is kind of self-defeating as to some degree they are inestricably linked.

I think its safe to say however that the ps3 is a long-term investment that is going to get better and better and leave the wii looking worse and worse.

then you have to ask the hundreds of thousands customers who chose the Wii over the PS3. If common sense prevails, the sales number will show which console is the most popular. And the numbers are already there~

you know, apocs argument makes the most sense out of most of the posts in this thread.

the wii is a novelty and novelties dont last.

Ok well, firstly you are looking at this from a very short-term perspective. It is obvious why the Wii has sold so many, its current price.

The PS3's sales are a ticking timebomb, waiting to explode with that first slash of the price tag. I think its pretty apparent that thousands are waiting to get the PS3 when the price cut happens.

Secondly, unfortunaly Cinderboy, common sense doesnt prevail, thats why you see 50 cent hit the charts at number 1 so often.

ppl been talking about Wii being a novelty .. we shall see ... lol

Apoc, I respect your arguements. *props*


To everyone whos comparing graphics to gameplay, this article didn't compare them. Hes talking about games that would litterally murder the Wii. You wouldn't be able to run such games on this piece of hardware. The games on that list are hardcore and you will most likely not be able to see such titles on the Wii. There aren't alot of games on the Wii that will satisfy the era of hardcore gamers, who want epicness in a game, and challenge. Nintendo actually has Zelda, props to them. But there aren't many games that are fit for people who love blood, violence, and graphic whores.


People want the Wii, because they look at the price tag and the fun it brings to multiplayer gaming. I give more props to Nintendo, the Wii is doing great in sales. A PS3 is only for people who look at the price then ---> want a quality, -all around- hardware. Thats why I wanted a PS3, I knew it would satisfy me, and it does.

Fun, cheap and innovative = Wii.

Complete home entertainment system, expensive = PS3.


Theres nothing more to say. Diss the PS3 all you want, people, but in the next couple of years, when swinging your arms around gets boring, the 100th Mario game comes out, and your looking for more of an epic revolutionary game don't come running to Sony expecting open arms. Expect a 'We told ya so'. The PS3 is pushing limits in our next-gen consoles. There will be change. Of course the Wii will proly be running steady, but the PS3 will be darting for the win.



Wheres the 360 in all of this? Nowhere. There isn't much change from the Xbox to the 360 if you just actually realize it. A 360 with no extras is just an Xbox with a new design, toned up graphics, NO HARD DRIVE, and a new interface.

@DeadEyes

I'm not bashing your beloved console. Its called stating facts.

Nintendo and Sony actually put real effort into their consoles.

This isnt me bashing PS3 but i thought it would be funny to share (not sure how many people have seen this though)

What the heck? the last part of this statement is soo odd......Ofcourse Sony would welcome back anyone from its disgruntled fanbase with open arms regardless of how much they diss Sony (which they deserved).

qft, right now, the ps3 is all talk. how people are saying the new games will 'beat' the 360 and Wii. but when it comes to it, it's nothing.

Uhm... :stare: ... Yeah... Imo;

Wii: A completely useless piece of shit which really sucks

PS3: Useless console for it's price of you're looking for gaming.

Xbox360: Pretty much owns, from what I know in the last month I've had it.

All of those games look so awesome. Too bad I have better ways to spend $600 now or I'd be all over the ps3.

agreed.

So many fan boys...

Anyway, It's pointless to judge games before they come out.

It may or may not "MURDER" the Wii, currently, there is no way to tell.

All I know currently is that the Wii gets very old, very fast, for me anyway.

It's happened twice before.
Ok, so ps3 came out after xbox and gamecube, so what? Do you really think the reason ps1 and ps2 won the previous console war, was because they were released first? If that was the case, then ps2 should have been beat by dreamcast following that logic.
Secondly can you guys STOP ARGUING ABOUT PRICE GOD DAMN IT!!!
Do you have some good damn issues with your memory??? I have said it hundreds of times, and I'll say it again till it sticks;
How much did ps2 cost when it was first released? I'll tell you, around 5 times the cost it goes at today, and at that time people like you were bitching about the price tag. What happened? It was halved in less than one year, and then everyone bought it. What is to stop this from repeating itself? Nothing. Now why does ps3 cost so much? Because it comes with a hardware that kicks the ass of everything else out there. A blue ray player alone costs a great deal, so do you honestly expect a ps3 to be any cheaper? How much do you pay for a computer that is powerfull enough to run games at ps3 level and fit it with a blue ray player? I won't even bother answering that. I sure as hell don't. Anyways, the price really isn't an issue. If any of you had a job, you could easily pay for it, and let's face, almost all the big titles launched for this game is aimed at people in an age group where you should have started working. So wth is the problem?
I don't hear people complaining about buy computers for the price of 20.000kr(2000 punds or so), so why should people complain about the price of the most powerfull gaming console to this date?

Fine, you don't want to pay for a ps3, but that's not a real arguement if you view it in context. The consumers power, and ability to pay more has increased, at least here in scandenavia, and so the prices in general has increased as well. I never for a second imagined that ps3 would be cheaper than ps2 from the point of release so I was already expecting a pricetag at well above 450 pounds(U.K). Now why weren't you?

Thank you, Hian.

When i bought my PS2,i didn't find it expensive :-/.I was 10 years old,anyway.
