Recommend a game system:, PS3, Wii or Xbox for returning player?

Friends, I have not bought a game system since my Atari 2600 (no joke). Who I ask for an opinion on what to get, I get the "fan" of response to one of the three. To get an idea of ​​what I like about my PC games: board (Or had) Halo, Half Life 2, Titan Quest and other types (Diablo, Dungeon Siege), Mito (no Myst) and I am a member of the month 33 of the City of Heroes / Villains online system. The cost of the system will not be a major obstacle. Also, online gaming is not necessary, and I'm not a fan of PvP (I hate to get cream for the people!) So, knowing my game preferences, what do you suggest? And, you can point me to some credible sites that would be wise to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each, and a review of the games offered? Thanks!

Tell him you do not listen to web sites Go to the store and the first demonstration of each system set then look at the games available ... Then, research real games before deciding .. Almost everyone has an opinion, but it has to do what you like ... Then go to each game web sites of the system and look around - you will find technical specifications - possible updates PROBEM alerts and next - Whatever the system is for you get that one. http://us.playstation.com http://nintendo.com http://xbox.com
