as the poster above mentioned if your kids are preteens.. then the only selection is wii... its more of a family console than anything else
but do not buy a ps3 ... not for the next 2 years anyway... the ps3 has a more powerful gpu but alas its more complicated, its more easier to make scenic games on a 360 now than on a ps3... meaning the games looks better on a 360 than a ps3... moreover, all the games from the 360 are being ported over to the ps3 and hence they are not optimized.. in a year and a half games developers will start harnessing the powers of the ps3...
