With how long it takes to design and manufacture things, it is pretty hard to say if the Sixaxis is a rip off of the Wiimote. I've played a little of each, and it just doesn't seem core to the ps3 experience, it is a frill, like rumble when used on the ps3. With the Wii, the motion sensing is as key as the analog stick was for the n64. The ps3 is a stunning piece of hardware, and there will be stunning software for it one day.

Its so damn annoying! Happened for the first time on RR too... I've also had effects, like weapons fire vanish... not happy bunny atm. In fact I've given up on the gameOS and I spend most of my time in Linux on my PS3. WhoCares,

I think it likely that the 360 will be the champ this round (its early entry seems parallel to the ps2's lead last round). The ps3 is a stunning piece of hardware, and there will be stunning software for it one day.

With the Wii, the motion sensing is as key as the analog stick was for the n64. This round seems like it should be more competitive than the last. No ps2-like domination is likely. Wii is attacking a different market. I managed to step fairly far away from the Sixaxis glitch. Apologies. Should be interesting to see if the solution will be: firmware update, software update, or recall. I bought the Wii.

I'm kind of glad that the controller screws up they deserve it! anyone stupid enough to buy one deserves to get what they receive.

Who posts problems about their console but doesn't bother to find out answers? It seems we have a troll in our midst. I wonder who would stoop so low? Either way, I do think this is a problem.

Every console has its problems though, and I expected some PS3 issues to come up. I have a Wii right now, and I have had it freeze up once and than on day 1 it couldn't read a disk, but other than that, its ok. That stinks for affected PS3 owners.

Both companies constantly do things worthy of hate. The Xbox 360 overheat issue brought plenty of hate and caused me (a real fanboy of the original Xbox) to wait a few months after the 360's release before I bought one. Even so, I wouldn't call it the most critical hardware issue in the history of game consoles. The DVD drive failures in both the PS2 and early model Xbox have to take that honor purely for the number of people affected. You also seem to be misinformed about the demand for Microsoft's new products. Last time I checked, Zune wasn't selling worth a shit. Then again, I guess it probably is doing better than Sony's Digital Walkman line which was utter crap. Vista as well, I'm only moving to Vista because I was given an Ultimate license. Most people I know have no interest in Vista and will only move over when games like Crysis come out requiring it. Regarding your concerns of the PS3 not being able to get its feet off the ground, as long as Sony can fix the current problems I think the PS3 will be a success, but it won't be another PS2. PS3 will not dominate this generation like its predecessors did in their times. This is a good thing, because it should cause some internal shuffling at Sony and refocusing of priorities in the gaming division. Next time around they'll have a more directed product that doesn't try to be everything at once and it will be much more likely to work right ON TIME. Shaun:
