Right so I was wondering which one I should get but I don't wanna get both.

I really want a Wii so I can play Super Smash Bros Brawl, Super Mario Galaxy and a couple of great games coming out soon.

On the other hand I want a 360 to play Halo three, and maybe some other games that look pretty cool.

To be honest even with the price deduction on a 360 it stills seems overpriced for the console itself and it's games/accessories. For example I played Xbox live at my brother in laws house and I totally loved it, but I don't understand why it should cost money when Wii's online play will be free, I really don't wanna fork out 80 bucks just for a 12 month gold package. Now If only that was the end of it, but then I'd have to fork out another 80 bucks just to buy wireless thingy for Xbox 360 because I can't really connect a cord through my stairs lol. This seems like a total rip off and I don't understand why it cant be in-built like in the Wii.

Oh and I'd probably buy the Elite Xbox 360 if I wanted a 360, because my TV was built for HDMI. It can run the other HD plug-in things but it'll look better with HDMI.

So all-in-all I'm edging towards a Wii because it's seems more enjoyable for the price and games, and won't take a hefty $600+ out of my account.

I'd really like to experience 1080p HD gaming though.

Your opinion?
