9833 i like all consoles fairly, the Wii holds a place because it is creating gamers out of the casual crowd those who would never of thought of buying a game console (and lets face it at the end of the day...as a business hitting the other 70% of the market that is untapped and wanting to be harvested isn't a bad idea) Also the Wii does have its share of good games, but these are mostly first party what it needs is Third Party support, and good support at that, not some crappy PS2 port, just think of what the controller can be used as, this is the first step towards virtual reality i reckon (though it better be the kind we can use our minds to control as those early VR machines in the nineties were horrible) i like the 360 for its catalouge of games, plus the controller feels right, the PS3 i like because of its power...plus it looks like it will have a fair few decent games coming its way (little big planet) of course my anti sony comment stems from something which i'm coming to terms with over time (i blamed them for knocking Sega out of the console market when really Sega made a lot of bad decsions)
