360 vs. PS3 vs. Wii

Gamasutra is running a piece today written by Ernest Adams, a frequent contributor to the site and an amusingly opinionated game designer. He writes to weigh in on the console war debate from the perspective of a game designer. He runs down the usual list of pros and cons for each machine, and then digs into the most creative aspects of each machine. Finally, lays out what he sees as the end result of this hardware generation:
"So who, at the end of the day, will be the also-ran in this generation of consoles? On the global scale, I'd say it could well be neither the PS3 or the Wii, but the Xbox 360. The PS3 will win over the hardcore gamers who have to have the fastest, most amazing machine available. The Wii will skim off the younger players and those who don't have as much money to spend. Both have the advantage of being made in Japan, so they'll crowd the Xbox right out of that market. In the US and Europe, it's harder to say, but I see the Xbox's early start as more of a liability than a benefit."

I like the Xbox 360. Owning a 360 it is very impressive. My vote goes for either the PS3 or the Xbox but the Wii is just horrible.

I don't like Wii that much because gaming for me is a relaxing thing and Wii you have to move around and stuff. Therefore, Xbox 360 for me, as PS3 is too expensive.

For me, this is how I view them.

Wii > 360 > PS3

Yeah, nobody's game-stupid enough to buy all three of them, lol.
As I have a PC I can play almost any game.
