    Xbox 360 dashboard vs Ps3's vs Wii's

    Just wondering which you guys think is best and what would you like to see implemented.

    Comes down to personal preference and individual use I reckon..

    360 has the integrated Live blade, general friends lists, IM etc etc.........In-game access to instant messaging, music, friends etc etc..
    If thats important to you then functions-wise the 360 interface has the edge..

    PS3 XMB though is far slicker than 360's clunky appearance IMO.........far better access to machine options, memory, saves, games etc etc........photo slideshows, movie playback, wallpaper/theme selection etc all wipe the floor with the 360's efforts..
    PSN store is also greatly improved over the old web-based version..
    2.4 firmware may bring in-game XMB access on a par with the 360, or it may not.......for the moment, 360 in-game functionality has that over the PS3..

    Personal taste though regarding the overall appearance........some may prefer the 360 dash..

    Wii.......only feature worth mentioning is Wiimote accessibility.......other than that, it doesn't compare to the other two..

    Put PS3 or 360 on top depending on what you need from it, with the Wii down the bottom..

    I prefer the PS3 one purely because I have used it so much now. 2.40 should help alleviate a lot of the issues it does have but I just like the XMB in general.

    The 360 one was a little difficult to get used to but it is brilliant.

    Wii? No, just no.

    The 360 blade by a mile, then the PS3 and then the Wii from personal experience.

    The one think I love about the XMB is that its not littered with smelly advertisements like the Xbox is.

    I do find myself leaning towards Xbox dashboard. I wasnt at all impressed with Ps3's when I first got it. But it has grown on me(as has my PS3).
    I do think both could make massive improvements in areas. We'll see when the new updates come out.
