    Personally..I prefer the X-Box 360…i like the way the x-box controllers are and I love the game selection. The PS3 is about the same to me..just fewer games. I love watching movies too..

    I like the nintendo wii

  28. soccer man2934 said that super mario galaxy is boring. I DON’T AGREE!

  29. THE Wii IS THE BEST!

  30. Wii is a really fun console, with Super Smash Bros Brawl its even more fun.

    DS is really good too. =D

  31. The best system is subjective. There is no master system out of theise five or any before it. Each has it’s advantages and disadvantages. The Wii for instance has a motion sensing controller and it’s the only system that plays mario games. so if you like Super Smash bros. Then a system from nintendo is for you. some of the drawbacks of owning a Wii are things like it’s low graphics level. Keep in mind with the recent recall on Wii wrist straps, breaking your television is even more probable then before. If you are an avid gamer that likes high level graphics then the PS3 or Xbox 360 are your best choices. If you are a gamer who is always on the go then a PSP or DS would be best for you. Its best to research the system that you want before buying it. Just remember that there is always more to do in life than video games.

  32. YO,360 ALL THE WAY

  33. PS3 because i have one and i like it

  34. THE TRUTH DUDE // March 27, 2008 at 12:59 pm // Reply

    I think the DS is the best because it may not have as good of graphics but its pordible and there are alot of 3D games for it. I gust got the first person shooter Call of duty 4 for the DS and it ROCKS. And with the DS you can wirelesly connect with somebody.

  35. the DS lite is a REALLY great system if your on a long trip .

  36. Wii FTW! =D I have one, and am currently typing from it.

    You’re wrong about the grapics. The grapics rock! What were you thinking??? And holding the DS is not clumsy! The stlyus is like holding a pen! Sheesh! You’ve gotta own it to know it.

    Wii is the best, hands down.

  49. Psp is the best system out there. If you buy emulators it can play any system game. If only Halo was a regular game on it……

    🙁

    xbox 360 is the best compared to ps2 and wii! however, the red rings of death are terrible! Be careful with your xbox 360!
