    You should get the Wii because its the next generation of gaming. It has fun games with different ratings while the Ps3 and xbox360 have the same games everytime. All of their games are rated mature and they all have to do with Shooting, Wars, and fighting. The Wii comes with all genres of games. I tried the motion sensing controller and it was fun and easy to use. If you like shooting games, you could use the controller as a gun and point it at the screen like the gun in the original Nintendo. You could also browse the internet, download pics from your digital camera, send messages to other people, download classic games online, and play gamecube games on it. Wii is the cheapest system and the most fun to play. Its the obvious choice.

    The wii all the way. First off the cost. Sony's playstation 3 is roughly 600.00. They are having problems with backward compatibility. Problems with how many they will be stocked with. Another problem is The HD TV. If you have a TV that is High Definition it will make your Playstation 2 games look bad and only certain PS3 games actually allow you to use HD technology. Are these problems worth the risk? I don't think so. Not only that but for the price you can get a Wii and an XBox 360. The XBox is roughly 400.00 with a hard-drive. The first issue is that they have two separate kinds. Secondly they don't have backwards compatiblity because they use a different CPU and GPU. Not only that but they don't have that many great games that are really worth getting except Halo. The graphics look slightly but not a whole lot better than the XBOX. So why waste the money on something that isn't that much better? The wii is the cheapest system you could buy. Marketing at roughly 250.00. Which is a fantastic price for a system which was only going to be marketed at 100.00. Nintendo is all about the gamer. Tring to get you to feel the game. Look at their control... NO STRINGS. It is like a computer, you can go on the internet and actually check your mail. Wow if that isn't Revolution gaming then I don't know what is. It has motion sensitivity which is great for all of those out there who get soo into the game they actually move the controller. And the wi-fi capabilities is fantastic. You are always online. This is great, which means you get the wii updates and everything else while you are out, eating, watching tv., sleeping, etc. Its a better system for more than half the cost of a PS3 and 150.00 lest than the XBOX... pluss the games are cheaper. That is a plus. Oh and the backwards capabilities. You can get those hard to find games that you love for your NES on your wii. Oh and the most wanted game ZELDA is comming out with the Wii. How many more reasons do you need? Its an all around better system.

    Depends on what you are looking for and what you can afford:

    Rough Cost : Wii $250, XBOX360 $400, PS3 $600

    There are plenty of games for each. The PS3 has a Blue Ray DVD player, but you will need new DVD's to take advantage of that anyway. The Wii has all the classic characters of Mario and has nice original controller features. The XBOX 360 has a ton of games at this point and more ram than the other two, but the PS3 has a faster processor. So, again, it's really about what you are looking for.

    I have never had a Play Station, but I have had a Xbox, and I'm getting a Xbox 360 for christmas. I really like the Xbox because I find the graphics sparkiling clear, and the controllers are just form fitting to the hands, for excellent guidance. I get to confused with other controllers. Xbox games are not all rated M for Mature, but the Xbox is not really somethign you want for small kids. I'm 14 and my sister is 10. We have like games called Fusion Frenzy, this mouse game and a whole lot of others. They just dont have the games like Mario and stuff. I pick the Xbox! I myself have like all the Harry Potter games for it, well almost, but the graphics are like so close to the movies. I just love the easy controllers and easy manipulation of things. Try it out, or definatly consider it!

    wii cause of the controller and the price or the ps3 cause it is suppose to have like double the graphics of the xbox 360 and the xbox 360 cause of halo3 i would defiantly go for the wii all the way

    XBOX 360 Live. Plus have you checked out Gears of War?

  • 1 decade ago

    Wii

  • PS3 because i heard there was a computer chip about it and it lets you play games online. and my suggestion is you either wait till a new game console shows on TV and buy PS3 because the price will go down, or wait till a higher tech game console and buy that so you can be on the new side not the crappy consoles side.

    PS3 simply because of the blue-ray reader.

    Did you know (because of the blue-ray reader) its costing Sony about $900 to make each PS3? People are complaining about the price but Sony is actually losing money each time they sell a console!

  • PS3, due to the fact of the look of the controllers, It is supposed to play all other PS games so u can play old games that were your favorites
