With Christmas getting ever closer, many kids will be asking for a new games console this year. But which one deserves your money? With the 3 main next generation consoles, the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Nintendo Wii, all competing against each other, which one is the right one to get?

Lets start with the Xbox. After a price reduction, the Xbox 360 now costs £130, making it the cheapest console of the 3 next gens. But, for this £130 you only get the arcade system which doesn't come with a hard drive or any games, so, you'll be looking for a bundle. For the arcade system, you can get the console, 3 games and 2 controllers for around £160. As for the premium console, you can get a premium console which includes a 60GB hard drive, 3 games and 2 controllers for around £200. And if you want to go for the best Xbox, the Xbox 360 Elite, this one contains a 120GB hard drive and bundles which include 3 games and 2 wireless controllers will cost around £260.

Overall the Xbox 360 is a good console, with many exclusive games including Fable, the Halo and Gears of War series. Plus with a huge online community, it's a great console for any family.

Next, the family console, the Nintendo Wii. The Nintendo Wii is an awesome family console, it features a huge choice of family fun games that will keep your family entertained for hours. The standard console will cost £180 and for a bundle, which contains the console, 2 controllers, 2 nunchucks and 4 games, £270.

Overall the Nintendo Wii is a great console, with a massive selection of family fun games, it will keep your whole family entertained for hours.

The final console, the newest, and the most exspensive is the Playstation 3,. The Xbox 360 is very similar to the Playstation 3, however, the Playstation contains a Blu-ray DVD player, allowing you to play Blu-ray DVDs. Also, within the last few days, Sony released their new online community, the Playstation Home, which is free free all Playstation owners.

As for the price, the standard console which has a 40GB hard drive included will cost just under £300. As for a bundle, you can get a Playstation with an 80GB hard drive and 4 games for around £300.

Obviously the Playstation is the most exspensive, but value for money, I would not say it's worth it. Although the console is similar to the Xbox, the Playstation has less exlcusive content than the Xbox.

Finally, I would say that the Xbox 360 is the best for online and solo gaming, if you are after family and child friendly gaming, the Nintendo Wii is the best bet.

Caribbean Holidays and All Inclusive Holidays are perfect for this Winter.
