Default What Should I buy?

New to posting on the Forum, but like reading everyone's opinions.

I am looking at buying a new system. Im not a big adventure game guy, more of a sports guy. Since I really just play sports games, should I just go with my gut and get the 360?

Thanks.

Hummm...

Well, I guess you could choose any system between Sony and Microsoft cause basically all sports games go multi-platform....
I don't know about the Nintendo consoles though... I don't think they have as much choice in the sports simulation genre...

well, unless you already have a preordered PS3, there really isnt a choice unless you are willing to wait another 6 months or so for a PS3.
the 360 has alot of sports games, and pumping out more all the time. You would have to double check the Wii's lineup to see what they have.

Well its hard to tell who is going to have the best online platform. But if you go by history it is hands down the 360 by far. The PS3 peeps still claim their system is going to be free but the 360's has been great for years and will stay that way and with the PS3 it is somewhat of a crapshoot.

As far as the wii goes i am not interested in it because of the wii mote. I just want to chill when playing games and cant imagine (based on the video previews ive seen) having to wave my arms all over the place to play a game. Just my opinion though, im an old guy though. The 360 is a great system in my opinion.
