Unrelated question for all you married guys (especially with kids) - when do you guys get to play?! Do you send the wife off to the other room while you bogart the TV and play? I find I can only really play any of these games on my PSP...but I just wish that the XBOX 360 and the PS3 develop portable systems that are true portable versions of the main system. It would help developers and it would also help the end-user as they feature set more than likely would not be a dumbed-down version of the original.
Anyway...I'm still thinking about buying a 360 and have it just sit around until NCAA comes out. Really, that would be the only reason to get one...that and the fact the PS2 that the kids use just died. However, as I see it there are really no "Spyro the Dragon"-like equivalents for the 360 that would help justify a purchase.

Well, no kids here. However, my strategy is similar to Moriarty. I make sure I have the TIVO downstairs set to record her favorite shows that I don't like. I also make sure I buy types of games for the PC that appeal to her around the release time of games I really want to play. Those strategies usually work well.
As far as the dynasty mode, other previews have said that it does have inseason recruiting. What I've read is missing from the current gen version: Spring game (probably the thing that I wish was there the most), the weekly magazine covers (they add some personality but became repetitive after a while, so this isn't a deal breaker for me), and the Race for the Heisman mode (I won't miss that at all.) A different preview specifically said the 360 version has trick plays and the expanded playbooks (it is in a 54 page digital magazine on madden mania.) Anyway, I'm going with the 360 version.
