I don't think I'd be letting this Cameron chap anywhere near a games console. In fact, he shouldn't be allowed to cross the road by himself. I really can't believe that was actually published.

Why not also add: Putting in the cd, Turning on the system, picking up the controller, pressing the buttons to play, all as cons to?

I wish I could find this "gutter hero" he speaks of. I've been waiting a long time for a true gutter cleaning simulator :)

PS3 can't play 4 players??

Unsubstantiated lies!

(Up to 7 wireless controllers supported.)

Wait ... you have to plug the PS2 INTO THE TV?

I certainly would have docked more points for that!

(Please tell me that this is a high-school newspaper and not a college one.)

Man I've been missing out then.

Damn I hate having to charge my portable gaming system every once in a while.

And I hate losing all my styles - how am I supposed to play now?

I'm assuming that's a K-8 school's paper (I would have said elementary if the kids pictured above the chart didn't look so old), and with that said, I wouldn't have kept the GTA4 reference in there. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if, in the previous console generation, the author's parents got him/her a Gamecube instead of a PS2.

Damn!

360 is crap because I have to buy the gutter to play the gutter games! Who'da thunk!

I'm not going to point out that the computer had the only 10/10 and it wasn't the winner.

This is a great comparison article. I better show it to my parents to guide them towards the games and systems I should have and play.

For PS2 "big ones and small ones" are pros? He's lucky this ain't a porn article.

So for PS2, PS3, and 360, its a con that they need to be plugged in to a TV. Hmm..I need to find these Nintendo systems that don't!! (Wii and GameCube)

Not to mention GTA4 is also on the PS3 o_O

I think I'll excuse this. It looks like a very young child wrote this.

what is this "article" from? it sounds like a retard wrote it.

I love the pros for the Wii..."you can play long adventure games"....

If this is a guy above the 3rd grade he must have scribbled down this article on a piece of paper on the short bus on his way school...

I can't stand how I have to plug my 360 into my TV to play. It pisses me off that I don't have to option of plugging it into my microwave, how lame.

This has to be from a 6th grade school newspaper or something.

Please, please tell me this is fake. :P I briefly wrote for my the school paper when I was 13, and as lousy as the writing was, the editing, punctuation, grammar, everything was still MILES ahead of that disaster of a chart.

Your microwave must be broke because I never have a problem playing games on my microwave. It even has a crisp picture, although I tend to get a lot of static interference for some reason:?

I wonder what they based their ratings for each system on? X_x

Lol! I write for my school newspaper (high school), but they always proofread (sorry if I butchered that word) and would instantly destroy this article if somebody wrote it. Chances are they would also fire the person who wrote it.

"PS3: Its new you can play good games"

If this Cameron person assumes only new games are good he knows next to nothing about video games. Allow me to write something better without saying more than one pro or con:

360: Has 8 person online chat (Where everyone can be playing different games) Con: 360s have a bad reputation for breaking down.

PS3: Free online. Con: Chat is limited on PS3.

Wii: Easy to play for non gamers. Con: Has the least online out of all three new consoles.

DS: Touch screen makes for some interesting games not seen for any other system. Con: Game cards could be lost easier than old Game Boy games.

PSP: Can play music transferred from your computer. Con: Games are on encased UMDs (A type of disk similar to CDs) So the casings may break eventually.

There, That is more helpful and it didn't take 10 minutes to write. I didn't even say more than one pro or con.

Is it sad that as soon as I saw the first entry I assumed it was a gaming article in Maxim from an interview of Cameron Diaz?
