G would prob be fine. However, I would recommend the comp not download anything heavy or at all while the xboxes are playing.

go with the wireless G setup (although wireless N/mimo would be a great improvement)
the routers always go on sale somewhere for less than 40 bucks (g)
and the cards even less. perhaps xxbay too.
wireless N slightly more.

anyone who thinks wireless can compete with wired.
has either never felt the speed and reliability of a wired network

If you need the speed go with wired
If its just the Inet. and perhaps some single connection gaming wireless will be just fine.
Have you seen how S-L-O-W his DSL connection speed is? This debate about G or N or wired vs wireless is hilarious. But I guess you guys would know, right?

Some can be mixed but i would go with ALL G its alot cheaper and you cant mess up

But if you want speeddemon wireless go all N.
I think if you mix you wont get the performance you payed for.
Kind of like having a 4 inch exhaust going down to a 3 for a muffler ,or other way around, you wont get the performance of the full 4 in system
