Cant comment on any of the others but my son has a Wii and the best things about it are

1) Promotes family style play rather than losing your children to the console - Lots of shared playing games and fun

2) Most games are pretty active - rather than simply sitting with a controler in your hand - you are jumping, throwing, punching and twisting about with the controller - Keeps the kids a little more active than most the consoles and again makes it a fun experience for all the family.

After buying my son the PS2 when it came out - I regretted it after a few days - as I lost him to the system. In the end, had to ban him from it - Just think they are not very sociable things....The Wii on the other hand is completely different.

Worth finding if anyone has one who you know and give it a try.....same with all the other consoles.

Yes we have a wii, and like you say, promotes family style play, even the wife as had a little play :D

Well as prices go (according to compareconsoleprices.co.uk)

Xbox360 60gb From £159.98

Wii From £175.00 (although Not needed)

PS3 from £284.00 .....

Either way.. you will have fun with all of them

We all have our favourites... but one thing i can lay testament to is when XBOX360's go wrong they sort it out ASAP.. where as friends with PS3s have not been so fortunate..

Blue ray films are overly expensive for what they are.. although if your hiring then its cool..

Im thinking of getting another console and 99% sure its gonna be the PS3. The Blueray player is just toooo tempting. If nothing else I know a handful of peeps selling their X360s and buying PS3/Wiis.

Having spoken to a couple of my chums who have PS3 they have no problems getting online with the PS3. They can't get enough of Call of Duty 4!!
