Depends what you want - great graphics, then get a 360.

Innovation? The Wii.

I own both so:

Wii is great fun to play, involving, new, innovative and wide ranging. There are massive games coming up for it, which retail at £40 max. The motion sensing is in full 3D (pitch, distance from screen, speed of movement etc etc etc) and is becoming more accurate and more inventively used as developers as time goes by.

However, the graphics aren't as impressive as the 360's - they are a large step up from the previous generation, but not as impressive as the 360. To be honest, you don't always notice. A lot of games look amazing, some are under-developed, but overall the Wii is capable of perfectly acceptable GFX.

The 360 is a powerhouse (less so than PS3) and displays superb, smooth graphics that are nicely realistic. It has the power to run any type of intensive game. There are a LOT of games for it, but they are the same type of game as what we had 4-5 years ago. They are very well made and fun to play.


The idea of gaming is fun. Overall, you get more pure fun from a Wii - but more conventional gameplay from a 360.

I'd get a Wii.
