Do you have money burning a hole in your pocket?  If you do then it's a good idea to get yourself one of the latest gaming consoles.  The trouble is that there are three great ones to choose from.  Which is the best gaming console?

The three contenders are X Box 360, Nintendo Wii, and Playstation 3.  They are all top notch systems, and different people have different reasons for liking them.  If you're going to decide which one you like best you need to consider your needs.

If you are really into interactivity then you'll want to buy the Nintendo Wii.  This is one of the most innovative gaming concepts ever!  You use a "Wii-mote" as your controller.  What you do with this Wii-mote shows up in real time on the screen.  Want to go fishing? 

Make the movements on your Wii-mote just as if you were fishing in real life!  Different Wii games use this concept in different ways and it's really a lot of fun.  Some people believe that the Wii caters to the younger crowd, but there really is something for everyone with this one.

If you are an avid movie watcher you might want to choose the Playstation 3.  Duh!  You might say, "but that is a gaming console!"  Well, the folks over at Sony were smart enough to add a top-notch Blu-Ray player to their console.  That means you can actually save a bundle over buying a Blu-Ray player individually.

There are also a lot of cool games.  The downside here is that the newest models are not backwards compatible with Playstation 2 and 1 games.  If that's not an issue for you you'll be making a great choice.

Last but not least you might want to consider getting the X-Box 360.  This is a phenomenal system that has some of the coolest games around.  There aren't really any gimics with this console, just pure power.  Many people love the online playing feature as well.  You can watch movies with this console, though not Blu-Ray like Playstation.

When you ask the question of which console is best there are no clear answers. This is especially true since some consoles have the same great games, like Guitar Hero 4 and Dead Space.  All you can do is weigh your options to make sure you put your money into the best machine.  The important part is that you save a bundle with your choice by shopping through eBay!
