I have a wii but don't play on it too much. Is the Xbox better? Would obviously fancy a PS3 but too expensive as I'm moving house...

I have a PS3 and Wii. I guess the same argument holds for Wii v XBox.
Horses for courses. I play the Wii with my 3 year old son. He loves it, even the Mrs uses it. The novel use and simplicity of the controllers is superb. However the games are fun, but the ones I have are limited in depth. That said, looking forward to Mario Kart!
For serious multimedia and gaming the PS3 pisses over it for the extra £100 it costs (£159 wii v £259 PS3 bare bones @ shopto). HD output for my HDTV, Blueray Disk playback (profile 2.0), Streaming music/DivX from my PC (mostly works!), Hard Disk storage, free online play that puts the Wii to shame. And those are just the obvious advantages.
So it depends on what you are going to use it for. If you get an X-Box will play games more frequently? Will you use the features it provides? Only you have the answer to that.

wii is good as a party peice, but the novetly wares off when playing alone, so if you plan on having mates round regularly then the wii is a good thing to have, if not got for the xbox/ps3

If I had a spare £300 - £400 I'd be sorely tempted by a PS3 with the forthcoming GTA and Gran Turismo games

Anyone know how much an Xbox 360 Premium is worth at trade in price these days?
Thinking of part-exchanging for a PS3 for the missus' birthday.
