    My ISP upload speed is crap. It took me 20 mins just to transfer 5MB file.

    This is on City of Minneapolis Wi-Fi, which I pay $18 a month for. Since we don't have cable TV or a home phone line, this is pretty dang cheap. I was paying about $60/mo just for Comcast broadband, and while it was faster and more reliable, it wasn't worth $500 more a year.

    The reason I thought I would make this thread is for comparison of video quality for the 3 systems.

    Wii = Official Nintendo Wii HD Component cables
    360 = Monster HD Component cables.
    PS3 = Monster 1000 HDMI Cable.

    Internet connection speed.


    All 3 consoles are feeding into a Sharp Aquos 32" 1080p Television

    The 360 and the Wii are a Tie, what amazes me is the surprising quality on the Wii, I was expecting a chuckle out of it, but the video quality was surprisingly nice!

    For some reason the PS3 seems to stream better at a faster frame rate with a broader color spectrum.

    I havent taken a pic of my modern console setup since I moved 6 months ago, so I thought id share a quick pic.



    Anyway, Whats your connection speed? you can run a test on it at http://www.speedtest.net
    here is mine
    my download speed:3.09Mbps
    my upload speed:1.87Mbps and i tested my speed from http://www.scanmyspeed.com/

    I would assume that intense internet browsing and watching Netflix on my 360 wouldn't affect this result, right?

    Everytime I do this test it gives me an error when it tries to do the upload part of the test.

    Not bad considering I only pay for 12 down / 1 up. Apparently if I had a DOCSIS 3.0 modem, I'd hit 30 Mb/s...or so says a few of my co-workers.

    Well here is mine. I have AT&T DSL, but damn... Looking at everyone else, it looks like i'm one of the slowest ones on here.



    As for the console Netflix comparison... Does anyone know if you can get sub titles on the 360?

    On the Wii I can select different audio tracks and select subtitles. As far as I can tell the 360 has none of the options. I'm sure i'm missing something. I refuse to believe that the Wii is more full featured than the Xbox.

    The 360 will stream in HD however and the Wii will not so maybe it's just a trade off. One does some stuff the other will not?
    If a god is willing to prevent evil, but not able, then he is not omnipotent. If he is able, but not willing, then he must be malevolent. If he is both willing and able, then why is there evil? If he is neither able or willing then why call him a god?
