I'd go with XBLA.

Rez HD
Ikaruga HD
Undertow
Cloning Clyde
Soul Calibur
Geometry Wars
Pac Man Championship
Bomberman Live
N+
Catan Online and a bunch of other board games
Marble Blast
Switchball
Wik: Fable of Souls
etc.

"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

Marble Blast and Soul Caliber are the only good ones from that list IMO.

PSN i prefer quality and an understandable currency

*Warhawk with DLC - fun online multiplayer mayhem 39.99 + 7.99
*Echocrome - nice simple puzzlebased on perspective that keeps adding user created levels 9.99
*Pain - cool physics and painful memories, and lemons 6.99
*Everyday Shooter - fun arcade like asteroids meets guitar music and unique graphics 9.99

just some games i enjoy

Can't say how good they are, but PSN has some great looking games. The PixelJunk games, The Last Guy, fl0w, Flower, Pain, etc. all look superb.

XBLA, on the other hand, has scads more games but also more of a quantity over quality feel. Although quantity IS a quality, so... hm. Still, for every Frogger 2 and Coffeetime Crosswords, there's an Ikaruga and Castle Crashers.

All in all, I do sort of wish Microsoft would be more thoughtful with their downloadable games. I think Sony's done a good job with that so far.
