I just got Guitar Hero II a few days ago and its been the new flavor, Lego Star Wars 2 etc. Plenty of games for the kids and you to enjoy right now. Plus the online action is there, where the others lag hard. I'll blow threw a game in a week but then sign on to live and blamo replay value.

But then you have the whole Blue Ray DVD hook that the PS3 touts... And they very well should, I've never seen a dvd look so crisp and yummy in my life. (if you have one get Underworld) BUT NO GAMES!!!

I've been a big Sony fanboy for years but god damn did they drop the ball on the release of the PS3. MotorStorm and Resistance: Fall of Man are the only games I play on it and neither are for your youngling's.

My call... Find a Wii!
Kids will dig all the platformers, Cooking Mama, Warioware and its just flat out friggn fun to play. Their online virtual store is kickass with some sweet retro hits from the past.

If the Wii isn't an option and your getting the new toy for (YOU) get the 360.


ps: buy the composite or hdmi cables to for the system you choose - its night and day
Wii, no way - tried it and didn't like it. Besides, I don't like that my kids play too much games - I got them a VTech/Smile for them + gameboy.

For the other kid in the family, ME, it will be a question of better games etc. I might just do both just for the hell of it. Wife will be very happy of course...

That said, I am a HALO type of game fan and not into sport games. Some great feedback here.

Oh, and I have PSP and love it. When I travel.
