    You're kidding me right? The 360 is the least fun I've ever had with a console. I've owned over 30 games for it, and only liked GoW, which got repetitive after a while. The only other game I've liked on it was Small Arms, but thats XBL (which I dont have), so I can't even get it.

    I'm buying the Wii simply because it has more of a fun factor to it. I want games that are fun, I couldn't care less what they looked like. Heck, I still use an SDTV.

    Wannabe, GTA IV on PC FTW.

    I have had both the Wii and the 360 since their respective launch dates. I've put countless hours into my 360, and maybe 30 hours into my Wii. Those 30 hours, were mainly in party situations with Wii Sports, Wario Ware, and Rayman.

    I dont think i've turned it on in months. Meanwhile, the 360, I've put 140 hours into Oblivion, 40+ hours into Gears, etc... The 360 Live Arcade is also a great addition where you can play unique titles instead of the Wii's releases of older console games.

    Anyway, It's obviously a personal taste. From my experience, my Wii is more of a dusty party favor while my 360 is where i get my serious game on.

    For you casual gamers who dont care about anything but short lived fun, the Wii is for you.

    Did you just say GTA on PC?- Zak FTL. Only thing good that ever came out of GTA on the PC is when you are bored of the actual game you can mod it and god crazy with the maps. Other then that playing it on PC sucks. Maybe if I was a Microsoft whore and gave them my money for Vista- then could use the 360 controller on my pc it might be alright.
