It simply makes sense to use the tech, that enables gaming, also for viewing movies. The Xbox does exactly the same, but it lacks a Blu-ray player (and doesn't even have the HD DVD player as standard) so it's stuck on DVD.

I'm not saying it physically affects the game capabilities.   The PS3s potential remains unchanged.  I was saying that Sony is just playing the movie angle a little too much and it seems that game selection is taking a backseat.

How would that work then?

It all comes down to personal taste, I suppose.  But there are hardly any worthwhile games on Wii.  Certainly less than either the PS3 or 360 (way way way way less than 360).  Now there are a few VERY worthwhile games on the Wii, like Super Mario Galaxy and Boom Blox, but they are few and far between, and certainly far fewer in number than those on the competitors' consoles.

You say it comes down to personal taste, then in the next breath you say there are no worthwhile games on the wii..  :dizzy:

If' it's personal taste, then someone may find alot of games for the wii enjoyable and worthwhile.

I don't have a wii, so I can't comment on the games for it, but it's hard to argue with the number of sales...

No it's not.  It comes down to personal taste, but if your going to take that to the extreme you can simply make no quality judgments at all.  Clean water is no better than dirty water, because some people might not like the taste of clean water.  First class is no better than coach because far more people fly coach.  A pasta dinner at a five-star italian restaurant is no better than Chef Boyardee because a five year old will take the Chef Boyardee any day of the week.  The Wii has an inferior software lineup, as objectively as clean water is better than dirty water.  The fact that there it is possible to disagree is barely meaningful.
