Nintendo's Wii Verus Sony Playstation

There was a showdown between the Nintendo Wii and the Sony PlayStation 3 at The Post's game testing lab last weekend.

Here's how it went down: I invited a bunch of my friends, five guys and three gals, over to check out the new systems. Few of them play or care about video games, but they were all curious to see the PlayStation 3, the cutting-edge game console that sparked real-world mayhem on its release Friday.

I think if you picked one up you might play more.

I don't have one yet, but the way it allows you to get involved in the game is key.

My closest comparison is Guitar Hero for PS2. It has become a crazy hit with everyone in my family from my 9 year-old daughter, to my 65 year old dad. My dad was damn near making the shopping list to get set up with a PS2 and the game.

Coming from a guy who just bought a DVD player 2 months ago, and has a computer that he doesn't know how to turn on, I would say that is a decent notification of the fun factor.

Someone should buy both for me and I'll let everyone know what I think. :)
