Me? It's gotta be PS3. Sure, we haven't seen any real game play videos yet, but with games like Metal Gear 4, Resi 5 etc, it's gotta rock hard.
X Box 360 does little for me. I don't fancy playing online anyway, so meh.
Revolution? I love Ninty, but I realy don't know enough about this console to give an honest opinion yet...

Well, if I can only get one, I'd go with the PS3.

It's going to be the most powerful system of the 3, backwards compatibility, Resident Evil 5 , and so on.

Nintendo Revolution. It may not have a fancy expensive hard drive like XBox 360 or bad ass graphics like PS3, but it will have one thing XBox and Playstation will not have. Metroid Prime 3 and a third generation of Super Smash Brothers. Super Smash Brothers and Metroid Prime 3 are the only reasons for me to get a Revolution (I am a Metroid addict ). I will probably get a PS3 down the road as well, but not an XBox 360.

Fuck choosing. I'm getting 'em all.

The PS3 first, if what I hear about PS1 and 2 games being able to use the PS3 memory is true; I only have one PS1 memory ca-SHIT!

I forgot to get one when I was at GameStop! And they had them, too!

Where's the forth option for None of them??

I used to be a console fan, I am no longer. Computers are where the real games are at

Yeah, and the constant worries about system requirements, random lag, and having to lower graphics and sound settings to play those games.

Ditto.

However the Xbox 360 is the only one that offers a game that I actually want at the moment. I've been obsessing over DOA4 for quite some time now. It's basically the reason why i'm getting a Xbox Threeshitty. Ps3 looks cute and all, but the only somewhat appealing thing I've see is MGS4.

As for the Revolution......show me smash bros. and i'm sold.

XBOX 360:
Pros: Awesome graphics, XBOX live, Gears of War, 99 Nights.
Cons: 400 dollars, Limited backwards compatability

PS3
Pros: There are pros?
Cons: Banana Controller, Crappy font, poor looking line-up, not impressive.

Revolution:
Pros: FULL backwards compatability, Sweet fucking controller, Small, versitile, not too expensive (Nintendo always has the cheapest consoles), Online downloads
Cons: There may not be online play. Not sure yet, though. No line-up has been announced.

My pick? Revolution. Maybe the XBOX 360 later, or if I win the lottery.

That is where you do not buy pre manufactured machines with all the useless crap you do not need on it. Just order a case and the needed parts offline for a fraction of the price you would pay for in best buy or circuit city. Built the computer yourself. Then find a bootleg copy of windows xp, or get linux if the game is supported by linux and ta dah. Kick ass gaming computer that didn't really cost a lot and then you can play all the games.

About sound settings, I have never had to "lower" them, I've always left them on the default and random lag really doesn't bother me since I'm used to it. Graphics are an important factor in a game, but not the most (mind you I still play quake 2).

I know you will all be shocked, but I pick...

NONE!!!

Why may you ask? This has to be the single most uninteresting next gen race to date. I mean, we already have such great graphics and games, I dont see myself buying a next gen any time soon (no pun intendend, I know they are not comeing until next year ). I am content with my X-Box and my PS2, and as soon as the 360 comes out, im going to the dollar store to pick up a GC and a crap load of games. So yeah, there shouldve been a option for None of them..

Hmm... The new Elder Scrolls game, X-box live god know theres going to be like 3 more Halos on it. FF Games. Super Smash, Metroid. Advantage: X-box

The only way that Nintendo is even coming close to the X if they redo a few characters in Super Smash.
