Even without Halo 3 in the equation, I still think the 360's attach rate is much higher than either competitor.

The Wii is fun, but it needs more and better games. Wii Sports is still the game that is selling the console, and not much else (not saying that there aren't other great games for Wii, just what is and what is not selling) Right now the 360's library is the best on the next gen market and with all the japanese developers jumping on, its only going to get better over time.

Wii needs some third party killer-apps... fast... if they want to cash in on the game revenue as much as 360 is.

I agree with you to a large extent.

Except would add Wii Play is also selling the console.

Personally, I think the Wii has a very solid first year. it has had it's fair chare of crappy games.

But Wii Sports, which to me right now stands at the most important game of this generation.
Zelda, metroid, RE 4 wii, Godfather wii (why more people don't give this a chance is beyond me), Super Paper MArio, Sonic and the Secret Rings and Excite all are very good games and offer different experience.

On the same hand, really happy got my 360 for online.
