Nintendo Revolution all the way! I like the controller, portability, ability to play many older nintendo games, and the promised internet connection. If Nintendo lives up to its words, it seems the Revolution will be a great system, plus they say we'll even have our own pick of colors!
I'm not saying that the other systems are bad, I just like the Revolution better.

Xbox 360 rules my Universe :win:
At first I was a Nintendo fanboy...ahh the days...flaming all non-Nintendo stuff..brutally hating Playstation for no appearent reason....
Then a friend of mine got it, the Xbox, at first I criticized it cause it wasn't Nintendo...
Then I played, then I loved...
I bought a Xbox as soon as I could and played it...alot..almost forgot my Gamecube...the poor lil cube is still in the living room..barely played the last years...
and now...I have my Xbox 360....and I couldn't be happier...
Sure the Ps3 WILL be stronger and faster an all...but it's the games I want...
Dead or Alive 4, Call of Duty 2, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Halo 3 and all thoose...

I have seen the 360 in action at the lounge in my school and I wasn't really wooed by it. The graphics were pretty good, but it just didn't seem like it was revolutionizing anything. Also, the lack of true backwards compatibility was a real let-down. Speaking of "revolution", the Nintendo Revolution has succeeded in grasping my attention. The movement-sensitive controller seems to be the superior tool for any first-person shooter. Imagine a survival/horror like Resident Evil and how you will be able to react much faster! If something jumped out at you, you could instantly pull your gun or other weapon and save yourself. It is much easier to be immersed in a game, when your own movement can mean the difference between life or death (Or lossing an important crop depending on the game). The full backwards compatibility and capability to download NES, SNES, and N64 games puts it pretty high up there with me.
I've been supporting the playstion ever since I got one, (probably because it was the first console I got 
) and I have no doubts about the ps3. When I saw the new nintendo, I didn't really like the look of it.. but I guess the saying "Never judge a book by its cover" so to speak (if thats even a saying), would come into play. But doesn't the controller just look uncomfortable?
Maybe its just me =/

Hell yeah they look uncomfortable!!!
I am for the PS3, Always have and always will. The PS3 has a lot of advantages going in. They have the Blue-Ray Disc. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The X-BOX live is great and all, but Playstation is already working around that. They will also utilize the PSP and the PS3 as the two key portals to all of your home and away entertainment.
The PSP will be able to send data to the PS3 (for example, pop the memory stick from your digital camera into your PSP while on vacation and send photos home). The PSP will also be able to control the DVR functions of the PS3.
But of course you have to have a PSP to do this.

If that story is accurate and Merrill Lynch is right, I can't wait to see Sony fanboys' reactions when they need to drop a G before they even get a game. Xbox 360 has its problems, but Sony hardware hasn't been the greatest either. Looks like I'll be playing my 360 exclusively until about 2009.
The following is from the magazine PSM. May 2006, issue 110. pg.10-11.
Shared Experience
PS3 owners will, according to several of PSM's development sources, be able to use their systems as "lifestyle servers"- other people on their buddy lists will be avle to access a sort of blog or "bulletin board" hosted on their system, even when it's not in use. One example PSM was given involved PS3 owners being able to record video journals to their consoles using the next-generation EyeToy, which could then be viewed by anyone they wanted. THis falls in line with comments made by sony at E3 2005 about the possibility of using PS3 as one's own "TV station" in a sense.
PSP Enters the Picture
PSM has previously confirmed that PS3 will ship with the ability to stream video, audio, photos, and even save game data to it's PSP, no matter where they are in the world, as long as they can connect to the internet. Now we've learned that the portable will factor into the equation in yet another way. Users will be able to take photos and record video with their PSP and send them to thier PS3s from wherever they are. They can then access them at a later time, view them when they get home, or choose to share them with friends. PSP can also be used to view photos and videos shared on your friends' PS3 consoles over the internet.
TiVo on the Go
Speaking to developers, Sony has also reaffirmed it's plans to build digital video recorder, or TiVo-like features into the PS3 (similat to the Sony PSX). More details have emerged concerning the functionality, specifically as it relates to PSP. According to several of our sources, Sony has shown mock-ups of a PSP application- Potentially part of a future firmware update- that can be used to browse TV listings and set up programs to record over the internet. The PSP can also be used to watch recorded programs streamed to it by their PS3s at home.
Chat, PS3 Style
When PS3 owners are at home, developers have been told, they'll be able to video chat with multiple people on their friends list simultaneously using the EyeToy. However, they will also be able to use a PSP camera/Microphone to video chat with friends who are at their PS3s or connected to the internet via the PSPs using a new feature that will track the availibility of their friends. The interface is said to be identical on the PS3 and PSP in order to keep things as straightforward as possible.
They also mention a New PSP. They say that the new PSP will be a slimmer, trimmer model, and that it's in development. It features a built-in photo/video camera and microphone, along with at least four gigabytes of onboared flash memory (in addition to a Memory Stick slot)
Again, the following is from the magazine PSM. May 2006, issue 110. pg.10-11
If you would want to read the whole article yourself go to http://psm.gamesradar.com
I can't wait for this thing to come out. But hopefully it's not as expensive as the rumors say it is. But it looks like you need a PSP to get most of those features. Most likely I won't.

Look at the CDsleeve.....kicks the 360's powerbuttons ***
Here is another update from the PSM Magazine. June 2006. issue 111. Pg.52-54. For the whole article go to psm.gamesradar.com
These are some excerpts:
Playing Hard to Get In Early November
"Sony has announced that the PS3 has been pushed back from it's Spring Launch; a simultaneous worldwide release will occur in the first half of November"- (So Xerxes99 was right)- "According to Sony, the price of the system "will not retail for under" about $425 in Japanese Yen. Since game consoles are typically a little cheaper here in the US than in Japan, it's reasonable for us to expect to see a price tag of $399."
"With only about a million units projected for the U.S. on Day One, and the initial demand for PS3 expected to be much higher than it was for either PS2 or Xbox 360, you'd better put that preorder in now."
Be expecting shortages!!
The PS3 Difference
Like I mentioned earlier in my posts, and what Da Monstar Reiterated. Is that every PS3 game will come on a Blu-ray disc. So, this will be a Huge score for us PS2 fans, giving us a more detailed environment in our videogames.
"The extra storage space will also sometimes be used to fit every country's version of a game onto a single disc. Furthermore, Sony will not impose a regional lockout in the games, although publishers will have the option to do so if they wish. Just think, if a hot title hits Japan first, not only could you import it and play it on you U.S. PS3, but the full English game could very well be on the Japanese Disc!"
Now that's awesome!
"The PS3 will be able to play, nearly every PS one and PS2 title, and will even run those games in 720p, 1080i, or 1080p. Not that jaggy, old PS one graphics, but it's a sweet option to have.
My words:
Out with the New Controller?
As you may or may not know, Sony has remade the controller. It looks, or should I say looked, like a boomerang. It looked very awkward. But now rumors have it that the boomerang is out, and the New version will be re-unveiled.
I liked the original controllers, but I guess they have to do something to change things up and compete with it's competitors.
PSM:
Sony Live
"Sony managed to announce every one of Xbox Live's online features for PS3 without once referencing the competition by name. The "Playstation Network Platform" (not official title) will be a single, unified online service, tying every PS3 game together with friend lists, messaging, video chat, and much more. I will go Live!"
"Here's how Sony gets its sweet revenge: playing multiplayer games online is Free!"
"Sony does aim to use its network to rake in big bucks through game content downloads, like new levels and such."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's only the tip of the iceberg with PS3.
Here are some PS3 Launch Games: Motor Storm, Resistence: Fall of Man, WarHawk, and Ratchet and Clank.
Again that was an excerpt of PSM Magazine. June 2006, Issue 111. Pgs-52-54
article written by Chris Slate.
Can't wait for the PS3 to come out. But I can say, it will be a while before I get one. Probably a year after it's been out.
