I owned an XBOX 360, but I returned it. The whole idea of it dying one day with the red light of death wasn't appealing to me. Therefore, I went ahead and got a Wii instead. Not only have I been playing my Wii more fequently than I ever did with the 360... it ain't gathering dust either. The 360 is definitely a good system... but a lot of the games also come out for the PC. M$ also mentioned that all 360s made so far are all defective. Until it has a new processor that uses less heat and a better overall design inside the unit, I won't be purchasing one. As for the PS3... they did some crazy tests with it. It doesn't overheat and it won't die on you for the next decade. At the sametime, it's a waste of money with the lineup of games it has. Wii FTW.
