…and I play nothing but my Xbox 360.
Rainbow Six Vegas, Gears of War, Call of Duty 3, and NHL 2K7 trump anything that’s on my Wii and PS3.
And what, you say, do I have for Sony and Nintendo’s next-gen consoles?
Well, not much. I’ve got Resistance for the PS3, which 2 levels in is a very pretty yet terribly derivative shooter that you’ve played about seven million times before.
The Wii is a different story - at Thanksgiving, my family and I had about 45 minutes of fun bowling and playing baseball. But my hectic schedule and review requirements have prevented me from even pretending to think about putting Zelda (the only Wii game I have bought) into the console. Cash (or lack thereof) has prevented my from downloading old school titles, but since I’ve already bought them before, why exactly should I do it again?
I sound like an angry gamer, but I’m not. I’m merely questioning why I spent gobs of money on two consoles that I’m not playing.

What a depressing story… send me your PS3 and I’ll make use of it… for something.
As for your Wii… well, there’s plenty of reasons that you should be proud to have it, but I’ll let ya discover that for yourself.

Get about 10 hours into Zelda, and then come back and tell me what you think about the Wii ;).
As for the PS3, I hear ya man. RR7 is pretty awesome as a RR6: Director’s Cut, though. The hidden stage is incredible! Resistance? Not so much…
