Not Far From It Now

You're a wide-eyed follower of gaming consoles. Obviously you know what the two hottest consoles on the planet are, right? Nintendo Wii & PlayStation 3. "Equally popular - are they", as Yoda would say.
The Wii is made by Nintendo, and the PS3 is produced by the Sony Corp.

Both consoles present players with up to date sounds and graphics. Without a doubt, loads of gamers believe there is hardly any difference between the two.

First up, the Nintendo Wii. The basic set-up will set you back about $250. A trim, lean, contemporary console is a standout among competitor's boxy - bulky consoles. The main controller to game play, a wireless remote called the Wii-mote is included.
A motion sensing system tracks movements of the players during game play. It is this element that makes the Nintendo wii a revolution in gaming consoles. The ability to play most all previous Nintendo console games & a special on-line service with exclusive games and entertainment features makes Wii a standout.

Next up, PlayStation. With an obsolete black blocky console costing upwards of $500 +. Equipped with, "blue" technology, namely a Blu-ray optical drive, Bluetooth wireless controllers, a high-def. video and wireless Wi-Fi networking port. PS3 has a memory card that can read SD cards, Compact Flash, and better Graphics. PS3 definitely out-powers the Wii without a doubt.

The conclusion when comparing the different features of Nintendo Wii and the Sony PlayStation 3 side by side is obvious, the PS3 has the most features for sure, especially for hard-core gamers. However, Wii has achieved higher sales. In fact, the combined sales of the PS3 and the Microsoft Xbox 360, do not even come close to the sales volume of Nintendo Wii. Despite PS3's better graphics and overall media, Wii remains the top seller among all game consoles. Perhaps it's because of its limited supply on the market. However, since PS3 is more expensive, a lot of gamers prefer to get a Wii bundle package which is less costly, and includes much much more. I'm sure the revolutionary motion sensing technology of the Wii has a lot to do with it as well.

There you go, a few of the differences between the Nintendo Wii and Sony PlayStation 3, but they are significant. Choose wisely and make sure that you choose the one that you can afford and will enjoy playing without feeling guilty.

You've read all the reviews, you know the facts. Nintendo Wii game console is the #1 system world wide.
Wii is extremely fun and years ahead of the competition with virtual game controllers. only problem is they are very hard to get, you can get one right here, right now, just do it.

This is a PlayStation 3 exclusive video game about a dragon. When the game made its debut at E3 2005, people were elated. They were amazed by the environments and the open ended aerial combat. Players will begin to notice that the visuals in Lair are stunning, and the full motion video sequences look spectacular. The story is unique throughout the duration of the game, and the audio is flabbergasting. The protagonist in Lair is Rohn (dragon rider for the Asylian army) and the perverse Mokai. Asylia and Mokai used to live in harmony until a volcano transpired. Lair has a plot that appears to be taken straight out of a Hollywood movie script. It has its fair share of twists and turns that will keep any avid video game fan guessing.

In addition, Lair contains a few poignant moments sprinkled in here and there. On the contrary, looks can only go so far. The old saying "don't judge a book by its cover" and "looks can be deceiving" should definitely be applied here. The gameplay is an enormous disappointment.

Even though blowing fire on things looks exemplary, Lair is a video game that people will detest. The controls in Lair are significantly egregious. I felt like my dragon was high on crystal methamphetamine or crack cocaine. Do not even get me started on the flawed targeting mechanic in Lair. Targeting a foe is worse than targeting in Gran Theft Auto III. You have absolutely no control aiming. The shoulder buttons are used to lock on an adversary, nevertheless it has its drawbacks. The artificial intelligence automatically selects what you should be focused on. I kid you not! Even if you are within five inches of your opponents, you could end up locking onto an innocuous object that is 1000 miles away. Unfortunately, gamers are coerced into using the six axis controller in Lair. This feature cannot be toggled on and off (unlike Warhawk) and is poorly executed in Lair (unlike Warhawk).

The controls were fairly intuitive in Warhawk; conversely, Lair will give players a migraine. I pulled so many muscles while I was playing Lair. Factor 5 made a brilliant Star Wars: Rogue Squadron trilogy, but they laid an egg with Lair. Unreceptive controls is the biggest blunder in Lair. For instance, fending off a swarm of enemies at once is vexing. Turning around requires players to exert an exorbitant amount of stamina. Making swift and precise maneuvers through the air with your dragon are not feasible. What kind of ludicrousness is this? The one saving grace in Lair is the presentation; then again, that is just not enough to fully enjoy this game. In a nutshell, Lair is dreadful. It is not engrossing to play at all. My hands started sweating excessively every time I utilized the six axis controller. The gameplay is fairly redundant and insipid.

Overall, Lair is like an IPhone. They both look stylish; however, they both drastically fall short of expectations.

final verdict 5.2 out of 10
