I love the 360. I know that all of the 3 major consoles now support online gaming, but I've used Xbox Live for about 4 years now, going back to the Xbox, and have always been pleased with it. The Wii hardly has any games that utilize online multiplayer. And for a library of games, I think the Wii and Xbox probably have about double the titles that the PS3 does... not sure the reasons, but apparently game designers are not doing as much for the PS3, probably because of its smaller market penetration.

I think the lack of games for the PS3 could be because it's much more powerful than the other two, and a lot of companies don't really have the resources to utilize the power the PS3 has. For example, Madden/NCAA and whatnot are developed for the 360 and then ported over to the PS3 because if it was done the other way around, most of the stuff wouldn't work on the 360. So it might be because you have to kind of make it an exclusive title for the PS3 if you want to get the most out of your game.
