      They may be free...but you get what you pay for. $50 (that's at full price, lots of places have sales for them) is not a lot to pay for an entire year of online gaming/downloading/streaming.

          Dave, you have 2 girls and the Wii is going to be way more geared to games that THEY would enjoy playing. I have a 360 and ps3. Both have their advantages as well as the Wii. If it was up to me buying for your 2 daughters solely, it'd be the Wii. I will own one soon.

            You're misinformed. I see more PS3's these days then I do 360's.

            BluRay Diodes burn out
            PS3's GPU (RSX) Chip has the exact same problem as Xbox 360's (Red Lights)

            The real question is, how many people have PS3's that you know compared to Xbox 360's.

            Anyway... back on topic.

            Wii or Xbox 360 for the kids. I'd lean towards the Wii since they are younger. Accessories for the Wii are quite a bit cheaper as well, however, like 90% of the Wii games are absolute junk. You'll def. want to rent games before buying them.

                  A back catalog of a ton of different games, some not even nintendo! Plus, you have the entire GameCube lineup available as well...which I think really helps.

                  At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                    Ok I have the Console trifecta and I firmly believe that the Wii is the way to go for you Dave. It is quite a bit of fun actually.

                          I think the Wii for older people is more of a party game and is more fun with numbers of people, but for kids its like ideal...

                                I just wanted to let everyone know, I am officially the KING of drums on Band Hero. I challenge all takers to a drum-off.

                                        I cannot stand rock band because the song list is not metal enough.

                                          No, but I've played both....maybe I'll buy it for the PS3 so I can finally say I own a game for it.
