I also own a 360 and I really like it, despite technical issues. I love the features, the XBL Marketplace and many of its games. But my pet peeve is that just as the Wii is flooded by would be Wii Sports follow ups the 360 library has mainly HD titles that try to market to the same fans that loved Halo and Gears of Wars, labeling the console as the "FPS HD Machine".

My question to you is; Does ANYONE feel annoyed by this?

 

I'm a Wii/360 owner myself.  I simply play the games that appeal to me on both platforms.  I opted for rock band on the 360 even though it's available on the Wii, and other games like Ninja Gaiden 2 appeal to me also.  Although the vast majority of my games are Wii games -- I just feel like Nintendo's first party games are the most fun.

Also, it's worth noting that calling the 360 an HD shooter console is really a misnomer as it seems most of the 360's shooters like Halo 3 and CoD 4 aren't HD.

 

I know that the 360 is more than just an HD shooter console. What I mean is that this is the label gamers and consumers have given the console, much like some people have dubbed the Wii "the casual console" and the Playstation 3 "the cheapest Blu-Ray player".
