alright people lets be professional about this. were gamers, not cavemen.
requirement #1: you must own all 3 next gen systems. (if you're a hatemonger i'm just going to ignore you, thus wasting one of you're daily answers for nothing)
requirement #2: you must list the pros and cons of all 3 systems.
bonus points: it would help if you've played all the systems online (xbox live, PSN, and whatever the hell its called on the wii)
i'll go first
XBOX 360
PROS: a wide variety of games, the controllers are comfortable in my hands and the xbox live interface is very easy to understand.....not so much now that they changed it but still easier then the ps3. the party system is top knotch
CONS: do i even have to say it? four words red. ring. of. death. and they break down constantly. i bought one when it first came out and i'm on my 6th xbox. and the wires used for the corded controllers and corded mic snap very easily (internally) so they don't work anymore fairly quickly. before i switched to wireless my controllers only lasted about 3 months mics lasted about 4.
PS3
PROS: arguably the best graphics.psn is free........ ya i got nothing other than those.
CONS
brace yourself this may be a long ride)the controllers are to small for my hands thus causing my hands to cramp up after hours of gaming (why the hell didn't they stick with the prototype controller? sure it looked like a silver batarang but they were on the right track) the mic is almost impossible to install for a guy who has almost no technical no-how, the PSN dashboard is insanely frustrating. the mic sound Quality is terrible, the PSN party system is as flimsy as a wet paper towel (i get disconnected from my brother and friends constantly) and has about as many features as a dead battery (you can invite people.... thats it. no 'join game in session') and last but most important you need a credit card to by thing from the PSN store.
(i'm fucking 17 i don't have a credit card. and my parents credit is shit due the the economy.)
Wii
now... the wii is kinda.... complicated for me. i own one... but beside a couple of games (zelda and mario cart and resident evil) i really haven't found any other games that scream 'BUY ME! i'll be fun!!'
i really have nothing BAD to say about the wii but nothing good either.
thus my favorite system is the xbox 360.
so please. post your opinion. there are no right answers i just want to know what my fellow yahooians think.

the PC isn't technically 'next-gen' but it works. i didn't include it cause my computers disk tray is broken so its impossible to fix it without trashing the computer
can some one explain what the fuck bluray even is? last i heard bluray meant movies that would eventually 'expire' and you couldn't watch them. despite buying them
