So I've decided not to buy either the xbox 360 or PS3 because quite frankly, there's no need for a new console yet. They shouldn't even be trying to make them when they haven't even fully utalized the old technology. Just trying to lock in customers to win the video game war.

I am interested in the nintendo revoultion though. It might not be that powerfull but nintendo still impresses me with it. I might actually end up buying one of those.

This pointless post has been brought to you by the letter K

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

Microsoft is messing around with all kinds of packages and price ranges, not to mention bundles from particular dealers. They need to get their ::crap:: together and realize that it's a console, not a parts sold seperately entertainment center. I just think they're trying to do too much with it. I just want to play games.

i want to get a revolution as well, the whole concept of the controllers just makes me want to try it out... i am getting a ps3 also.




A gun is not a weapon... It's a tool. Like a butcher knife, or a harpoon, or...uh, a...an alligator.

I don't own any consoles, but I must admit that the 360 tempts me.

I know I seem like a nintendo cheerleader around here sometimes, but I'm really excited about the revolution, its controller, and the direction nintendo is going. I'm sorry, but I'm far more interested in what they "could" do than what I KNOW Sony and microsoft will do*.

(*- As in, stay locked in their penile measurment contest while trying to get game developers to agree no to sell to the other manufacurer. All the while, Microsoft pushing some sort of delusional concept of an entertainment/media center on us, and Sony just slinging so much crap out there that some of it, according to the laws of averages, has to be a hit.)

I watched a little trailer of a Xbox 360 game and I'm not impressed... at all

if I do buy a new console, it will most likely be PS3, and that will only be fore KillZone 2/3

I wish Sony could make a better online system. For this reason only, I may look into the Xbox360.

I like halo. I don't care what you idiots who lock yourselves up in your rooms all day playing WoW think. It's fun. I'll probably end up getting the 360.

Nintendo has been sucking it up lately, I'm throughouly disapointed. So far the demo's for PS3 are pwning the heck out of 360.

Alot of people think that the new controller will suck major ass.

There are only two packages. One with a hard drive and wireless controller and one without. There are also two sony playstations 2's. Any other deal is not Microsoft's deal.

video games just bore me nowadys.  halo is fun time to time, but i quit xbl because of the annoying kids shouting in their headset.  and when you're good, you get accused of hacking, standby, modding, ect.  but if your bad you get flamed.  it's just stupid and people take gaming way too far.  maybe they think it will become a professional sport.....

There are people in Korea pulling in two hundred thousand a year by professional gaming.
