I had to go with a mixture, they all have their own upsides and downsides, the PS3 i have, only has issues on certain (very buggy) games, so it's performance and durability for me has been top notch, and the game selection is quite good aswell, as a lot of the PS3 exclusive games have been at least enjoyable. And the free online play? That's the icing on the cake. The Xbox 360 i have however, the games seem to be a little less buggy (i'm looking at you new vegas) and i've thankfully not had a red ring of death yet, though i came very close (a quick unplugging of the system fixed that right up somehow). Although the online play isn't free, from what i've heard (i'm no expert, i have no money for charged online play) the customer service aspect of Xbox Live is far above what playstation have (this may or may not be the case, as i have stated, i don't know first hand). Finally the wii, when it comes down to playing FPS games, which i usually play on my PS3 and xbox, from my experience, they shouldn't even be released for the console as they don't suit the medium. However, the family games like bowling etc are perfectly suited to the console's control system, which is what the console was mostly designed for, and the fact i've not even heard any stories from my friends of having their Wii break or crash (though they may, i'm only saying i've heard no mention of such happenings). Also, the backwards compatibility with the gamecube is excellent, as opposed to the 360's painful system for such, and the PS3's lack of PS2 compatibility. To summarise, although i'm not really very fond of the wii, i have to admit, all three have good points and bad, but all three are quite solid consoles, considering how many other potential problems there could have been and how they seem to aim towards different varieties of gamer.
