Default Tower defence games for Consoles

Hi dear Tower Defence Games fans!!

I'm looking for some good Tower Defence games for my consoles. I own a PS3 and a XBOX360. Also for Macs would be nice.

A friend already told me to get Defense Grid: The Awakening, which so far looks pretty good.
However I'd like to have a choice (although I might just get them all at some point :P).

I'd also like to know your oppinions if you know the game/s and what do you think of them.

A little help on where I could purchase them would also be great. About Defense Grid: The Awakening I looked at play.com and did only find it for PC. I also took a look at a big sales company here in Spain (where I live) and didn't find it.

Thanks a lot!

Kind regards,

Onizuka

On PS3, there is "Savage Moon", which I have the demo. As I don't have the full game, I can't say much of it, but the demo is cool. The 3D interface, its awesome graphics and some nice features (like Tower Cam and walls on which you can place towers if I remember right).
There is also "PixelJunk: Monsters", more cartoonish but still cool to play. I've also got the demo of this one and there are good features: You put towers over trees, there is research for towers (I think its reset every level), a level map, you control some guy that allows you to reach trees and put towers where the tree is (and then the tree is gone, obviously), upgrade towers (stand aside it to upgrade it or pay gems (I think) to instantly boost a tower for a level) and collect coins & gems that creeps lay, etc.
Personally, I prefer Savage Moon between those two according to the demos, but they're both nice games.

Thanks Fredge999!!!

I'll definetively will take a look at those two!

Yesterday night I bought and tried a little Defense Grid: The awakening for Xbox360.

It costed me 800 Microsoft points to buy it, so around 9€.

I've done a few missions so far and it looke very interesting.
The graphics are pretty cool, but I think that in the tower defence game it's not the most important (however we don't forget about them neither).

As for my short gaminx experience I can say that the game is thought to make you think the strategy beforehand, not while you play, also think of upgrading the towers in time and choose them wisely. So far I only got to see 3 of them, but I'm pretty certain there will be plenty of options.

I'll keep you up to date with my experience with that game. I only hope I have enoug time to play it :P

Defense grid for 360 is pretty good, and fairly cheap. It is hybrid mazing and fixed paths(some levels are one or the other, and some are both).

The ones where u can maze, still have a somewhat forced path tho, its not all opened.

I bought it as well, and it was worth the 9-10 USD it costs.
