Hi I have recently purchased a Nintendo Wii and the reson I choose this was because out of them all I felt the games were more active rather than just sitting and playing and the whole family could use on bad weather days. My brother has an Xbox 360 and loves it and a friend done the road a Playstation. Which do you prefer and why? Is it something you wouldn't even consider owning and why?

My boyfriend has all three he like playing the 360 online but we often play more games together on the wii like mario cart. Played buzz on the playstation but haven't got it now. I love the camecube if i'm honest i'm a retro girl monkey ball tetris etc but out of the three i'd personally say the wii but my boyf would say 360.

yeh probably i do like the multiplayer games myself and the wii fit and stuff i think it's because on the online gameplay that xbox wins out because graphics wise both me and ste think the playstation is better. It's the whole social aspect just not face to face ste is on pretty regular on a friday theres about 20 of them that go on. I usual go out with the girls to the cinema or somert. I think girls prefer to see each other men prefer to be comfy at home lol God i feel so sexist but it's true!!

Hi Ellie, For me it would have to be the Xbox360, my son has one and I play it often, the controls on the Wii seem very complicated on some of the games. I have no knowledge of the PSP so can't comment there. Enjoy your new game though, I am sure they are all on par with one another. Ken

Hi Ken, men seem to prefer the Xbox but I got the Wii purely because of the activity factor. I haven't really played it too much yet to know what the controls are like but if I haven't had anything else I guess I will find them ok if that makes sense. Ellie :D

I love the WII because it has all these active and non-violent games but I currently don't own one. I would love to but haven't the money yet. I do own a PS II and I love it because it has all these music games on it like guitar hero and sing star, and I like those a lot (even though they are available on WII too, or at least gituar hero is). I don't like the XBOX 360 because it has little games I like, to much violent ones and RPG ones even though RPG can be nice but not the military ones or such.

Hi Cyberfluf, I am so so sorry for the late response for some reason I missed this post. My favourite is the Wii too but guys tend to go for the Xbox for some reason probably because of the action, violence type games on there eh! Huggles. Ellie :D

Well ellie my children would say Xbox for they do not have the Wii, but they have played it. The graphics on the Xbox are so nice. My 12 year old has the PSP and loves it so who knows really what they would choose.

Hi Linda, Boys do tend to prefer Xbox especially for the graphics but most girls and women seem to prefer the Wii. Ellie :D

It depends of which you perfer the most: game play interaction or the graphics. I would perfer wii because even tho the graphics arent that real, it gets you to interact (and maybe you could get your daily exercise in the mean time =]) For younger childeren, wii would be the ideal choice, but as they grow older they may perfer xbox 360. It all depends on your point of view.

Hi Redsky77, I think the reasons you have stated are the reason why I chose the Wii as I like the activity factor, my brother however loves the xbox360 because of the graphics and he also plays around the world online. Ellie :D

Well I almost have everything in the list, except for a Wii...oh how I wish I have one...But then the Wii really gives and delivers the activity factor. X360 are for those hardcore gamers who want their pixels shiny. PSP is a handheld and should be paired with a DS in contrasting. So it should be X360 PS3 and Wii. But for the purpose of answering your question, I really prefer the Wii, especially now that my fave game Chocobo's Dungeon has a sequel on the Wii. Can't wait for it!

Hi I am so lucky then to have a Wii and like you say it is a lot more active than the others, in fact on Saturday night I had friends round and we went 10 pin bowling on the Wii and boy did I ache the following day but it was just so much fun. I hope you manage to get one soon though so that you can play the sequel of you fave game. Ellie :D

i have not tried the x box or the playstation. but then i feel wii is really cool just for the reason that u can play it as you would with another bat. so i m sure it is more interesting to play tennis or golf like tht. ofcourse i knw the graphics and all the part are better in xbox or so. but then the games are also cool nowadays in wii. so i vote for wii. i want to have only wii

I voted for the Wii too for the simple reason it is a lot more active than the others and as I have a young son I didn't want him to be sat in front of a screen all the time. I think its great and I thank you for agreeing with me on this one. Ellie :D
