WII all the way! Graphics are about as good as a normal Xbox. BUT the games are a BLAST, and thats what its all about! You can download hundreds of NES, SNES, and N64 games on it, and Gamecube games are compatible, even with controllers and memory cards. Wii can also connect to the DS and you can browse the internet and play some games over Wi-fi for free.
Pros:
- GREAT games, absolutely a BLAST!
- Unique controller
- only $250, cheapest of the bunch
- so much backwards compatibility its not even funny
- Wi-fi play and web browsing
Cons:
- Decent graphics
- Speaker on the remote can get annoying (but sometimes it can be turned off)
Good games:
- Zelda Twilight Princess
- Mario Galaxy
- Guitar Hero 3
- Red Steel
- Rayman Raving Rabbits
- Metroid Prime 3 Corruption
- Super Smash Bros Brawl (in Feb)
My second choice would be 360. With Halo 3 and a very strong game lineup, best graphics of the bunch, and awesome online play, I would definately get it if I could.
The PS3 on the other hand... a VERY VERY expensive paperweight. There are maybe 3 good games on it... Counting Guitar Hero which is on every thing else as well.
There ya have it. An honest opinion from an experienced gamer, my friend.
