Rhoody, I hit space, tab and every other button on my keyboard, your pong game isn't working.

I love the glass lifting game. Difficulty (walking and having coherent conversations) increases with every new level.

If it's for adult gaming experience (by adult I mean 18yrs and above....really into gaming) , then I would have to say get an XBox 360. The Wii doesn't have games like GTA 4, Mass Effect, Resident Evil 5, Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell, Dead Space, Lost Planet, Dead Rising, Bioshock, and a whole lot of other GOOD game like those. On the other hand, if it's for exercise, casual gaming, and educational purposes, I'd recommend you get the Wii.

As for where to buy, it's been a while since I last checked on places that sell consoles so there's a slight chance they might not be there anymore, but if they still are, try the top floor of Lee Plaza (there's a or there's a chance there used to be a video game section there. They sell both the 360 and the Wii. Another place would be on the basement in Mart One, last time I checked there used to be a shop there which also sells both consoles as well.

Default Get the Wii

The Wii is different and many people of retired age can pick it up in no time and really enjoy it, YMMV. I took mine to India for 6 months and everyone regardless of age loved it and it does help you keep fit with out over stressing.

If no one likes it I am sure you can recoup most of the small investment by selling it.

Hey there Rhoody. Yeah, it's been a while since I last posted. I guess I've been really busy the past months. Thanks, I'm looking forward to that offer. Beer is always good. Hehe.

It depends on what the teenager is really into. If he/she is into serious gaming (mission based, fighting games, etc..see few examples of titles in my post above), then I would have to suggest an xbox 360 without a doubt. On the other hand, if he/she is into casual gaming (playing an hour or less a day, not really into mission based games and such, just wants to play sports and puzzle games with family and friends, wants to exercise a little while playing video games, etc.), then I would definitely suggest getting a Wii.

Hope this helps.
