I'll get all 3, I've always been a Nintendo fanboy so I'll get the Revolution without a doubt, I'll have to get the XBOX360 for HALO3 and the PS3 for MGS4, Final Fantasy and Devil May Cry.
We should be thankful we have a war because if one company was dominating they'd be able to charge as much as they want, whereas competition forces each corporation to cut prices.

I really like the XBOX controller opposed to the PS# controller. However, Nintendo supposedly has something new and great.

i will get the revolution first and the the ps3. i'm not playing into the hype that xbox360 is 15 times powerful and ps3 is a whooping 35 times powerful, and nintendo 3 times the power. look they all will push out the graphics we want to see. i just want to know how much they will be, i see the ps3 is 465 dollars but sony hasn't said anything yet.

I will probably get the xbox360 as soon as it comes out and then the ps3 but i also want the revolution. Its a shame all these different companies have excellent games for only there console, in an ideal world they would all have the same and we wouldnt have to buy all of them its gonna cost me a fortune!!

DAMN...thats deep. Ya'll need a serious talking to. Alright where should I start, the upside. The nintendo Revolution will allow to play all of the past nintendo games and u can download them. Games such as Street Fighter, the original mario bros., the legend of zelda, etc. And, the NR is suspose to have a hell of a controller. It comes in colors red, black, lime green, white, and silver.The price is unknown. The Xbox 360 is coming out this holiday season for $300. U can change the top color of your Xbox buy customizing it, and it will have the biggest set of games to come out when it launches. You can also download movies, songs, etc. onto the 360. The 360 come with free Xbox live called Xbox live silver for u hardcore online gamers. The Playstion 3 will be reverse compatable with PS2 and PS games. No only that but the PS3 is known to have some super material....BULL-FUCKIN'-SHIT!!! The PS3 really have the same material as the Xbox but will come out in spring 2006 for $600. It's said that the PS3 will have better graphics. I doubt after seeing Gears of War for the 360, but what's one game right?

No contest PS3 of course,nintendo is too slow with making games and xbox are too into themselves.PS3 will dominate with the selection of games I think just going by the statistics so far with the current consoles.Xbox is alright,but they make an original game every year or so not noticed to be honest(Halo is what they pride themselves on,but can't think of anything else besides Halo other than a couple of other games).Nintendo probably will stick to making games for kids and leaving the adults left out,which is a downfall in my opinion.I do agree with Strazza the PS3 controller looks like garbage,would like to be able to switch to the old controller used for PS2.I was watching E3 not that long ago,and you should have seen how microsoft presented the Xbox360.If you seen how they presented the Xbox360 you would be shocked how bad they make it out to be.Just my thoughts against all the consoles so far.If I had to choose between the consoles my order would be like this:
1.PS3(Top Priority)
2.Xbox360(I like the hard drive that is already with the system that the other systems lack,gives you more stability to do more things with it)
3.Nintendo Revolution(nothing really mentioned on this system to be honest,but Nintendo seems to be the slowest out of all the systems dissapointed to be honest)

Ok, it's still 360, fable was the most interactive game i ever played in my life. plus sony lie, they said that the playstation was the first 3-d console, when sega saturn had 3-d games on it. here's the deal,
Xbox 360 comes with HDTV, There's 40 titles coming out this year and 160 titles in development. And MS makes plenty of original games and have a lot of games such as half life 2, Gears of war, halo 3, splinter cell, pgr, ultimate spidey, nba 2k6, batman begins, hitman 3, fable 2, 2 star wars games, dead or alive 4, conquer live and reloaded, blitzm nhl 2k6, mascar 06, burnout, a new crash bandicootplus more than twice those many all this year. you can expect over 200 xbox tutles this year.
And the ps3's graphics look just as good as the original xbox's.
and in 2006 there will 2x as many games on xbl.and it has video chat. what more do u need

See, sony is lying, the only thing new is the gaphics. Microsoft has been working on everything, all the games you seen on E3 are just rough copies, think of what the real games will look like. anyone who still wants a ps3, reply

Here's the Xbox facts
The controller, the camera, the headset, the camera, and even the console itself...there have been a lot of Xbox 360 leaks so far.

To sum up the important stuff regarding XBL:
There will be two versions of Xbox Live. Silver is free (everyone gets it), and Gold is a paid subscription, like the current XBL. It looks like Xbox Live will be free on the weekends for everyone; Gold members will get it all the time, obviously. Current Xbox Live accounts will carry over to the 360 and become Gold Xbox Live accounts. Both Gold and Silver members will be able to download demos, trailers, and other content through XBL.
This info seems pretty legit, and some insiders have confirmed that this is indeed a real leak.

Man please get that shit outta here the ps3 graphics look better than the 360 my opinion if the guy from PS said that the KILLZONE was real game play then it killed the 360. i don't know if there lying.i don't work for them so i would't know and i know you dont so you can't say anything untill the ps3 come out. and i don't think we care about xbox facts and all that unnecessary stuff you wrote it's all about the games and they might have the same games on PC for xbox so whats the use..O my fault the free online service

Zinn sorry bro your not defending Xbox360 very good bro.They have originals I said they do,but they release one of them every year.To be honest Halo,Half Life,and Fable are the only games I can think of that are only for Xbox.The other games you mentioned will be for PS3 also.I agree with 2kwic also,killzone made the Xbox360 look like garbage.The PS3 can support Blu-Ray also,which will come out later in movies also.I don't think the graphics for either one of the consoles to be honest is going to be what they say it will be.I think they both will be slightly better than the PS2 and Xbox,but probably nothing like they mention.The 35 times and all this nonesense that people are hearing is overated,but I think the PS3 will have better graphics than the Xbox360.

Personally I'll get a XBox 360 (lookin at about £165 in Uk ) then maybe a PS3 depending on the reliability (I've had two PS2's both have dodgy lasers that dont want to read discs) I prefer the look of the PS3 though - the big green button of the Xbox looks nasty - hopefully you can change the led colour as easily as u can with the current xbox (XBOX media centre). I also like the changeable fascias of xbox . but thats my opinion. But at the end of the day my pc would kick all their asses....... sorry just stirring !!!
Some mornings I wake up grumpy other mornings I let her sleep !!!

Zinn I got to hand it to you. You just wont give up. Im a die hard xbox man but after seeing some of what ps3 can do Im starting to have second thoughts plus the game play for killzone 2 is off the hook which makes me wonder if halo 3 will be that good. And ubisoft said that the splinter cell games look much more refined on the xbox than other consoles. But at this point is to close to call.
Peace out!

Look man we all know the xbox360 is gonna kick ass this talk about ps3 being twice as powerful as the xbox360 may be right but the xbox360 will have the best games no doubt. The new xbox will have tons more features and things to do compared to the ps3 and the internet gaming facilities are miles better.

@ zinn
1.half of the ORIGINAL games you listed for 360 are also on the ps2 or coming for ps3.
2. the biggest reason i hate xbox is you pay for online when its free only down the road.
3.who cares if they lie once, its still the beter system by far.

why deos every one think gears of wars graphics are great.
of course the ps3 graphics would be good to if it was on an HDTV.
the HDTV is the only thing the 360 look good.
i saw the new killzone for ps3, it was amazing, the details on the face were unbeatable. perfect.
think of what you could do with 50 gigs of disk space. they could make the game great then use up the remaining 20 gigs to increase the graphics to an unbelievable level. and when zinn said the ps3 will start at 600. remember when the xbox was around 1000 in the U.S at one point then it quickly droped.

guys stop arguing. Both ps3 and 360 will have superb graphics. To say which will have better graphics really depend on how much developers spend on making a game. I'm sure each console will still have crappy quality games. It comes down to which console games u prefer more, the only negative thing about xbox this gen is their lack of game varieties.but it seems they are changing this with more rpgs from japanese developers. Ps2 lack some good fps games compared to the xbox, but it ps3 seems will have some kickass fps. but one thing i am worry for the 360 is i heard a lot of games on 360 would be available on the pc. This is good for developers since they are doubling their buyers...but bad news for 360 since that gives some gamers an option to play the games on pc. Until u play both consoles there is no way u can say which one is better YET.

I reported this (and other pages) to the Mods. I believe these should be put in the Safety Thread and they are also violating the rule of NO Double-Posting

bottom line is sony already had the biggest game selection and now they will have the best graphics to boot with the best library. Zinn chill with the bull man the specs on the machines have been released and no one is going to argue which system is going to have the better graphics with a hard headed stubborn fellow. That issue should be established as a constant already PS3 is actually a little more than twice as powerful as the x box 360. Also i just recently read in the June 2005 issue #192 of EGM magazine that as soon as several big time gamemakers actually saw the capabilities of Sony's upcoming system, they decided to move their xbox 2 projects to PS3 so oooopsss, there goes some of microsofts much need games already. So that should only add more bleeding to microsofts needy game line exclusives. But lets not argue b/c everyone is entitled to their opinions. I dont think there is a patent on the ps3 chip for nothing; No computer, and especially no other gaming system can match ps3 power. Plus lets remember that is the PS3 plays Bluerays as they say, that is 26 gigs on a one layer DVD and should be more than 50 on a double. Microsoft loses money with each system they sell i have heard b/c it is so big and bulky with wasted space and hardware and i know that if sony will soon have better graphics with games and the exclusive will always be better with sony. Xbox is just about the get the game of the year in GTA san andreas that i remind you beat Halo the so called "PS game killer" and it is hella late arrival for the system. I really think this will be Microsoft's last attempt at the video gaming industry unless that a better library of games. Throughout history the system with the biggest library has always one the battle anyway. Nes beat master system, SNES beat genesis. Turbo graphics, neo geo, CD-i all died b/c they did not have the exclusive library of games. If you search online ps2 murdered x box in sales and game profits. Lets just remeber that the games will always make or break the system make the system even though it takes graphics to make the games. One last thing though, if the ps3 is so powerful then some genius need to just put all the software needed on a blureay and somehow get i loaded onto the ps3 like the dvd loader and memory card exploits so that is will be able to actually process the xbox 360's games as well as its owns, HAA HAAA> I know it will never happen thougth but it would be nice to be able to play all games on one system eleviating the need to waste money on two systems. Crazy huh????
