The one thing that could be said was the main drawback about the Wii is the lack of storage. OK, there is the internal memory and when that runs out you can fit a 2GB SD card. But with the success of Wiiware and the Virtual Console, Nintendo has finally admitted that the lack of storage could be a problem.

Superlatives can be casually tossed with wild abandon, especially when its E3 and you work for Microsoft. The company announced that South Park and sequels to Galaga and Geometry Wars would make an appearance on the Xbox Live Arcade and that makes it the "best ever line up" for the gaming service.

If you was about to shell out for a PS3 you might want to rethink that, as Microsoft has a new Xbox 360 out, this time with 60GB of storage goodness.

It looks increasingly like the reassuringly expensive Playstation 3 will stay just that - Expensive. As Sony puts the kibosh on any rumours that the next-gen console will be marked down in price.

Up until now if you bought games and downloadable content for your Xbox 360, only for it to go through the dreaded red ring of death, you could no longer play them on your new console (blame evil DRM for that wonder!) But Microsoft has now released a tool for users to transfer content between consoles.

The one thing that sets the Wii apart from the Xbox 360 and PS3 is its unique wireless motion-sensing controller - but it looks increasingly likely that Sony could be developing an answer to Nintendo's controller that, erm, breaks in two.
