As we draw closer and closer to the Sony PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii game console launch dates, it’s only fitting that websites begin publishing their side by side comparisons between those two new next gen consoles and the one year old Microsoft Xbox 360. CNET has finally published their analysis of the three consoles as well as individual reviews for the systems.

So which system do they seem to like? CNET doesn’t quite take a hard lined stance on which system is the best but it’s clear that they do think the Sony PS3 is the most technologically impressive (need we say most expensive too?) Finally, they end on a fairly balanced note stating the following:

there’s something for everyone on each of these consoles, so you’re better off seeing which of the exclusive games most appeal to you, and picking up the corresponding machine. And remember: there’s nothing wrong with getting two–or even all three.

Um right. I have 1200+ bucks to blow on all three systems.
