You're going to rue the day you ever said this on these boards.


Sorry, that sounds more incendiary then I meant it.  Not sure I can improve what I meant without stepping into it deeper, though.  It's a feeling that I did not expect though, that's for sure.

Every company innovates.  ... They're all great in their own ways.

True!  (though I still hate XBox.  You've got to have at least one console to hate, right?  :)

Seriously, I guess that I'm glad I've gone multiplatform and can appreciate more of the great gaming that is out there.

I recently got a PS3 under similar circumstances (right place at the right time, got a good deal).  At the moment of purchase I was thinking - Blu Ray player.

I won't go on and on, but I have been really impressed by the PS3 and the PSN.  I know it's a small thing but storing the credit card and having it ready to go is so much simpler then the Wii reentering game.  It feels like a 'system for grownups' - it's a serious system that never feels like it's limiting you.

But my biggest surprise is the innovative games that are available.  I haven't owned a non-nintendo system since my Atari 2600, and I've been under the assumption that Nintendo made innovative games, and the rest were either copycats or just pretty graphics with no gameplay.  I've been amazed by the titles available on PSN... quirky titles like the Pixel Junk series, hardcore shooters like SSHD, demos, trailers, significant content update every week... this is what I longed for in the Virtual Console or Wii Ware that has not been fulfilled. 

I'm not selling my Wii, don't get me wrong... but all the games I'm looking forward to are on PS3.  I guess I've defected too.

Genius!  It makes perfect sense to put the Analog stick back on the main controller...

Great Review!

You understand the game!  I've been disappointed with other press reviews that have given low marks to the game - primarily for being old!  I'm glad you could get beyond that and see the  entertainment available in this great package!

BTW, I'm enjoying the game and eagerly awaiting my Perfect Shots. (supposedly shipping soon!)
