What are the hottest video game systems on the market for Christmas?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Battle Games:
Call of Duty: Black Ops is coming out in about 15 minutes from when I write this. This is going to be a really hot one, as judged by the drooling of my son and his friends for the last 3-4 months!
Assassin's Creed 3: Brotherhood is a historical battle game set in the Renaissance, but brings the Assassin's Creed game into a mutli-player game level.
Car battle:
Twisted Metal (PS3 only). It was popular 10 years ago when systems were not as sophisticated as now, in around 6 editions. So it has that throwback factor going for it. Old and busted as well as the new hotness. There's really nothing like it on the market right now.
Creative/Adventure
PS3 only: Little Big Planet. It's really hard to even begin to describe, except it's quirky; has great soundtracks; and allows even little kids to create levels with all kinds of wild things to do/navigate. For example, my 5-year-old created one where you had to use a bubbles to make a wheel turn in order to raise an elevator, but you had to then jump on a teetertotter/ramp in order to unlock the elevator! It was easily as complicated as anything as my teens create, but less conventional.
For Xbox 360, Halo Reach. Incorporates first-player shooting action along with space battles.
There's also Medal of Honor for both systems. It's been a popular game for awhile, and the new edition will likely draw lots of buyers from its fans.
I keep my ears open in a house full of gamers (son and friends). And I asked two of them about this question.
Also, as I write this, my son is trying to get his dad to take him down to Game Stop to finish paying off the Black Ops he preordered months ago, so he can qualify for some special codes.

I second this. Kinect is going to be the new "it thing" Whether it sells well, i do not know, but I've seen videos of it in action, and I think that when Wii 2 eventually comes around, it will use the Kinect as its model.
I think the best Kinect games have been the dance games. They can get complex, but they look like fun and a chance to compete with your friends.
Kinectimals also looks good.
Racing:
- ModNation Racers (A cool "cart" style game that lets you customize your own tracks)
Sports:
- Madden NFL 2011 (football at it's best on a handheld)
RPG:
- Invizimals (battle monsters game with an awesome augmented reality component)
Action:
- Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (combines stealth and action elements... Spike TV Video Game Awards "Handheld of the Year" nominee)
Hope that gives you some ideas!

So I would go with the PS3 for this Christmas season.

Up vote for LBP2!
Hehe... Hey T!
Well the question is about systems and games. :)
"What are the hottest video game systems on the market for Christmas?"
Great answer anyway :)
Sorry about that! I saw all the stuff about genres, and thought you meant games. I should be answering questions at midnight. :-) Although answering at midnight makes that LBP2 video even more entertaining than it already is.
