Wow, now only 4 years between system releases! Before long, new systems will be released before the old ones!

Maybe I'm just jaded, I dunno. What do you all think?

*singing, rythmic* I played my A-ta-ri to-day.
(don't get it? click the motto on AtariAge)

PS3 is my second choice.

I wait a couple years after a system comes out before buying a new console. That way, I know not to buy a console that has no buyer's market. (My friend bought an Apple Pippin in 1994, got rid of it 3 mos. later.)

By voting for Atari, I mean everything that is considered vintage, I'm not much a fan of new video games, a lot of money for something that'll more or less give me the same amount of fun.

i can honestly say i hope this puts M$ out of the console business.

i am so sick and tired of running into people who have played nothing other than x-box and says its so superior to everything else....i mean its a FREAKIN computer man why do you even OWN an x-box, if you own a computer a lot of the gaames for x-box are for PC aswell and come with more features and if you have a nice comp it will run a who heck of a lot smoother than the x-box version...and the games on x-box are Direct X EVEN!


ARGH i am so tired of those x-box people!

I agree doofus. How can it be coming out this year? I made a thread about it, and by the looks of things its not coming out for at least a year, most likely 2. Anyways i voted for ps3. Never liked the xpox. Sony's better. Plus i have stock in sony.

I am with N-S on this issue. If you want an XBOX, get a video card with TV out or a VGA-to-TV converter, and an XBOX controller-to-USB converter. I usually find that the PC versions of games are cheaper than XBOX games anyways. You can get the hardware for less than a quarter of the price of an XBOX, and you are read to go.

It IS coming out this year. If it wasn't obvious enough from leaks, E3 lineups, MTV ads etc, on GameSpy an actual Microsoft person confirmed it.
