DELEMA

Do we buy a Wii or an X-Box 360?

We are swaying towards the X-box, but would like some input before jumping all the way in.
We like multiplayer style games that we can play together, but I personally also like the Nintendo specific games like Metroid and Zelda, how do we get the best of both worlds??
Help!!!

Totally depends on what kind of games you want to play.

If you're both more into RPG-booty-graphics style games (Hitman, Conan, Grand Theft Auto, etc.) and want the ability to update patches, play with others around the world, go for the xbox. But, there's also plenty of old Atari-style games available for it, too.

If you're more into fun cutesy games to play with together -- games that are more into strategy and team play, than explosions, intense sound and graphics -- then go for the Wii. Granted the Wii does have some bad ass RPG-style games. I hear Resident Evil is pretty awesome with the Wii.

hmm, yeah I like those RPG games alot, but I really want something that both of us can play at the same time. I wish sometimes that those games (Metroid and Resident E etc) had multiplayer functions, or does Resident offer that? I know there are diferent charcters to choose from, but can you multi play? Or jeez to be able to pummel as a team the big boss's in Metroid, Damn that would be cool!
I am just going to eventually have to break down and get both Sytems ;)

A friend on my post said that the Playstation or XBox are good for watching the Blu-ray stuff. But she has a hi def tv too. Huh.

All those bad ass RPG games available on xbox are also available for the Windows PC - and they're a thousand times better on the PC.
