Yeh, my Wii looks shit on my LCD too. Is it to do with native resolutions and all that stuff? Oh well. I play the 360 more anyhoo.

I'm keeping an analogue portable, otherwise 20 years worth of lightguns and assorted peripherals will become completely useless. I like my Wii Zapper though, it makes me feel like a big man

a large part of me wishing to purchase he wii is all the bits you can get for it, the zapper,crossbow,boxing gloves,sports bits,the NERF GUN! mat bloody hell the list is endless. its a console which allows you to keep on giving TO YOURSELF.,
i feel the graphics on older games pale compared to the current generation. based on the boards comments here i will not be downloading to much without reffering to these type of threads.
i bought a Plasma for the 360, the differnce is so great its incredible.worth every penny of my sons education fund i spent.

sadly you have to be joking!
i have recently been offered PS3 pirate games,it was only a matter of time wasnt it, the WII?
the WII two days after it hit the shelves the discs went on sale,(at about 2pounds sterling per game). the attachments.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
the non licensed stuff is even better looking the licensed ones.
THE GUNS ESPECIALLY make you feel like a real man.
sniper rifles,hand guns,nerf look alikes, machine guns, cowboy pistols,dessert eagles,
the ninja swords are great and the boxing gloves are a hoot.
the cross bow and i dont mean a nice white one, its a full on adult sized thing, the sword and shield.the stuff of wet dreams.
the golf set,table tennis,badmington and tennis racquets,baseball bats. steering wheels, even a blow up JET SKI you can sit on!!!!!! believe me its like being able to equip your own arcade here.
fishing reel and rod? there is more too much to list. but you would think nintendo would get on the bandwagon here.
i live in SE asia, where such things are to say the least LAX to the point of you can buy this stuff in shopping malls.
saw a full cart set up last week in a DVD video, specail order only. but its madness out here. piracy is not only rife its an entire industry bigger then the official stuff.

Quote from: "Keef Monkey"Haha, I have that. The game itself is awesome but the handcannon, while looking the biz, gets too heavy as you play for a long time. I also have a ten quid Venom gun from HMV, which looks a bit shit but does the job just as well...and its lighter! Anyway, maybe its just me being a wimp......Quote from: "The Cosh"Quote from: "Devons Daddy"its a console which allows you to keep on giving TO YOURSELF.,Alternatively, it's a platform whose success (and avoidance of piracy) is predicated on the purchase of ever more esoteric peripherals for every game.
