Quote:I don't prefer that at all actually. I wanted to run Xbox360 on my wireless network, unfortunately it does not support that out of the box. And the speculation is that you can run Wii online with the DS Wifi dongle, which is $40. But I'd suggest you spend that $40 on a wireless router instead. You get much more functionality that way.
Also bear in mind that Nintendo has said time and time again the Wii online will be free. Xbox360 online will continue to cost $50 per year.
I'd think $20 or $30 at most. This isn't a fancy wi-fi transmitter, it's just a USB plug adaptor for using wired internet... the price thing is obviously correct though, though of course Sony's online also has no charge.
Quote:Whether you consider it worth owning is irrevelant to the arguement. The fact is that you get Wii Sports and it is, in fact, a game [or rather five]. You do not spend an extra amount beyond the $250 price tag of the console to get it. It is free with the purchase of the Wii. The Xbox360 comes with no free games, requiring an expenditure of $50 or $60 beyond the price of the console.
It's also not a $50 game; in Japan they aren't charging full price for WiiSports...
Quote:They both do a good job of displaying what each game is capable of as well as giving gamers an idea of the art style of each. Twilight Princess lacks some bloom lighting and bump mapping, but the art style reminds me of Shadow of the Colossus and that is most definitely not a bad thing. On the other hand, the Kameo art style, while not bad necessarily, are a bit "generic Rare fantasy art style".
Kameo obviously has a higher resolution and higher res textures, but Zelda just as obviously has a much, much better art style. As I said. :) And the graphics are far from bad too...
Quote:no, they both have much better moments of beauty. Kameo for example...
That one definitely looks better, but art matters... :)
