I don't want to check out the channels.
Still, all in all the Wii is coming out gimmicky, big time.

A look at all 3 systems against each other. Good read. Though I don't think you can have a 'Grand Champion', it all depends on what you are looking for in a system. Something to think about... Xbox was the more powerful system last round, but game support was thrown in the ps2 ring. This time around... ps3 looks to be a tad bit more powerful, but 360 is getting some pretty damn amazing game support to date and the future only looks better.
