Bah. It's alright. But the PS3 is still NOTHING compared to the Wii.

Bah. PS3 will likely have the most advanced graphics of the three, but graphics don't mean crap. It will have a library of downloadable games from the PS1 and PS2 as well, but they will be expensive, and it will also cost you for the internet feature. Besides all the costs there, it comes at a whopping $500 or so. $600 with extended memory. (Or some imporved feature... I think it was memory.)
The Wii, in comparison, will have free Wi-fi internet, based off XBox Live greatly. Its downloadable library will also go down through nearly the ENTIRE NINTENDO LINE. Some of the MANY systems included in the library: NES, Super NES, Virtual Boy, Nintendo 64, TurboGraphx, Atari 2600, Sega Genesis, and other Atari and Sega systems. Over half a dozen systems worth of games against 2. The games will alos come at low prices - some of the most expensive shouldn't top $10, and the NES games are said to be at about $2-$4. It also comes cheapest of the three systems, at only $200-$250.
And don't go whining about the Wii's controller - any games not motion-sensitive will be playable with gamecube controllers. The Wii will also play gamecube games through playback and have it's own internet browser.

I'm going for X-Box 360. Love me or hate me for that. Playstation 3 is an amazing system, let me tell you that. And Sony is actually benefitting us. It cost $800 just to make one Premium PS3. They made the cost of a Premium a mere $600. $200 less than what it's really actually worth. Now look at the features of the PS3. Not only can you play games with incredible graphics, but the controller is more comfortable, the PS3 CAN GO ON THE INTERNET like a real computer, you can download PS1 games starting January, online is like X-Box 360 only it's FREE, and really the whole system is actually an entertainment system. Now $600 for all that. That's not bad at all!!!
Why am I still not getting a PS3, you may ask. Well this system just came out. Like all new systems by Microsoft and Sony, it has flaws. Flaws that need to be fixed. Overtime, they'll become good as new. That means I have to wait until all the flaws are fixed.
Nintendo Wii, well we all know Nintendo is one VERY TRUSTWORTHY company. And I am not being a Nintendo Fanboy here. I speak the truth. Almost every Nintendo system, if not all of them, were *flawless* when they first came out. Remember the Gamecube? Amazing little machine. Remember the N64? Perfect. Remember even the old Super Nintendo? Great stuff. Game Boys and Game Boy Advances and DS's...they all rocked.
In fact, for a while I was thinking of getting a Wii. The Wii is cheap, trustworthy, and really downright convinent. It's very simple, but very complex at the same time. Create a profile for online, then off you go into gaming. It's down to the point, and the system is small and easy to carry arond unlike the big PS3 which weighs like what...250 lbs? XD
Now going onto the 360. It's been out for a while, and the flaws have been fixed. The price is at a middle rate between the Wii and PS3. X-Box Live Online costs, but not that much. Still a great deal. Most of my friends have the 360, for one thing. I really would love to meet them online. For another thing, however, 360 has the most games I'm looking forward to. I think games are more important than systems overall. X-Box is pretty much exactly like PS3, except Live has a very small monthly fee. That's really it. Good price, great games, friends, and all on a now-trustworthy system.
360 is the winner for me.

Bah. It all depends on your taste of games. ;/ Personally, I don't see a single winner on the 360 list...
