Which New Generation of Console will you be buying and for how much?

**lancer** · May 6th, 2005

The title says it all.

Also why will you be buying that particular one?

Dammit i meant to have multiple choice, can an admin or mod change it so poeple can choose the console and the price please.

thanks

**rushm001** · May 6th, 2005

Xbox2 when it's sub £150.

Reason : Halo

**lancer** · May 6th, 2005

well lets hope halo 3 will better a lot different,

**the_music_man** · May 6th, 2005

ps3 b/c its sony

**Grandmaster** · May 6th, 2005

You can't have multiple choice in polls, so I removed the prices.

I'm positive I'll be getting the Xbox 360, perhaps the PS3. Nintendo will really have to work hard to convince me to get a Revolution though.

**lancer** · May 6th, 2005

thanks grand for the help.

Maybe this time i'll get them all, but the xbox for sure.

**NetRyder** · May 6th, 2005

None of them. My brother will probably end up getting the Xenon though. We'll see.

**Kush** · May 6th, 2005

i can't vote now, because im ganna wait and see which one is the best gfx and compatability wise

Ohzopants · May 6th, 2005

two words: Smash Brothers
That's why I'm voting Nintendo.

**~bk** · May 6th, 2005

I still haven't decided. But I'm pretty sure I'll choose between Xbox 360 and PS3.

**vern** · May 7th, 2005

The next Xbox and probably Nintendo's console for it's first-party games. The next Xbox and the next Playstation will be released so far apart that there really isn't a hard choice to make. I will probably end up buying both like I did with this generation of consoles.

**LordOfLA** · May 7th, 2005

None of them. I will always play my games on a pc until such time as the pc stops becoing the best and most versatile gaming platform. Its just going to take time for publishers to realize you cant keep banging out Yet-Another-FPS and Yet-Another-RTS and Yet-Another-MMO.

There's a pretty big and neglected Singpe player market out there waiting for some decent RPG's, Simulations, Strategy games (not rts's) and adventure/action-adventure games to be pushed out. ity its a choice of EA, LucasArts or Atari as your publisher for the most part that seem hellbent on cookie-cutter games.

both...

minus nintendo

Will buy in the following order:

1) Nintendo Revolution. They don't have the largest catalog of games, granted, but they have some of the most original from Metroid to Zelda to Resident Evil, etc.

2) PS3. Square-Enix RPGs that I really enjoy, along with a few other games here and there that'll make it worth buying when it gets cheaper.

I probably won't buy either system right away. I like watching their catalog of games grow before I start buying a new console.

PC games are fun, and I play a few, but I spend so much of my day on my computer as it is that playing PC games doesn't relax me. I'd rather lay on my couch and play on the console.

1.) PS3 at launch

2.) Revolution later on

**vern** · May 7th, 2005

Seriously, those comments that go along the lines of "PC RULESSS!!!! becuz it's more powerful!!!" is something that would come out of a fanboy.

**Xie** · May 7th, 2005

I for now will stick to PC gaming. Down the road if I was going to get any of them it would be the "Revolution" as it's the most "console" like.

This gen is trying to put an end to console gaming and bring in the age of set-top media player.

**Tuffgong4** · May 7th, 2005

Xbox360 when revision 2 hits because revisions one is always a great big turd.

Also I will probably get the Nintendo next gen console at some point because with the last generation I was completely impressed with the gamecube with how their certain top games were some of the most graphically impressive with such a unique system spec and others...(RE 4, RE 0, and drawing a blank on the others)

Just curious here, but why would that be reason to buy the console?

If you are going to get more in a box for the same price, why not buy the box with more features?
