It's little bit more expensive, but there are loads of games for PS3 already available, and more and more are scheduled to release this and next year...
Yes Xbox might have more games, but i'd love to see one person who played all of them...
You buy console and 5 - 10 games per year and you are set (if you dont buy ****ty games )
@Krezack
If you can afford it , buy Wii, PS2, PS3
I do own Wii and PS2, and trying for a year to make my girlfriend believe that PS3 is vital component in the household... i fail misserably at that anyone has some good strategies up for that?
