well there are loads of rumours and announcements of the future next generation consoles. which one would you like to get? well to me im not really sure quite yet..
im ashamed about the playstation 3 turn off in the anouncement, the prototype looked like the orginal paystation 2 but given it loads of extra things and a curvey top. well bad bad thing about this idea is that you cant put anything like cd cases on your playstation anymore.. lol they just fall off! hm.. i wonder how they would do when piracy of games starts to shoot up like in the last few years of the playstation 2, playstation one, and especially the xbox. well i think the playstation 3 solved that problem, because of their new inventions of new storage media. i read about the "blue ray" it stores a hell of alot! 54 gigabytes of memory in a single disc! thats five times more than my harddisc memory on my computer. and imagine copying that much onto another cd. A DVD cd is long enough take about a couple of hours! what do you think about the next generation of console WARS! |

It's hard to say. I've always been a Nintendo fan, but the GameCube couldn't really compare to the power of the xbox. But this new machine is looking really good and will still play GameCube games as well as the older N64, SNES, and NES games. So I could play Donkey Kong Country!

I`m planning on getting both the PS3 and the Xbox360.
There is simply no other choice then that. Oh yeah ....hey harriko i don`t think the blue ray discs will be main format of the games is just Blue ray COMPATIBLE thats all......at least for the moment And the blue ray laser was definitely not a "SONY" invention, I beleive the original idea was from PHILIPS but developed in co-op with a few other big names. QUOTE Blu-ray, also known as Blu-ray Disc (BD) is the name of a next-generation optical disc format jointly developed by the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA), a group of leading consumer electronics and PC companies (including Apple, Dell, Hitachi, HP, JVC, LG, Mitsubishi, Panasonic, Pioneer, Philips, Samsung, Sharp, Sony, TDK and Thomson).

I don't plan to get any the kinda of console I'm looking for is a console that just plays games, I don't need all this new internet crap and web cams and stuff if I wanted that I'd just buy a really nice computer. So I guess so far the nintendo console is looking the best, can't wait to play golden eye again with all my buddy's.

Hi guys
My choice would be PS3. I'm not a fanboy, but i would get it for the games. I love games like final fantasy, and metal gear, and gta. And these have been announced for the console. The graphics are mind blowing. The hardware is quite even this time around, when Xbox came out, it had better graphics hardware, and a HDD, and beat PS2 in graphics and such. But still, they each have their good points. PS3 with the 50+gig Blu rays can hold more, therefore storing large high res textures, and huge game areas will be easy. And the blu ray may only be on a sony console, as the version was part made by sony. Any way, i have to go... |

I'm not sure which new generation console I'd rather get. I know that I won't be getting a Nintendo Revolution though. But, both XBOX 360 and PS3 are going to have amazing graphics, huge hard drives, and good companies making them. But I'd have to debate on the games. I like HALO for XBOX, but I also like Grand Theft Auto for PlayStation. It may end up coming down to a money factor for me, if I've got a job and an income, then maybe both would be nice.

I will have to say that I will stick with Nintendo only because they have the rights to Zelda games and if Zelda ever goes to another game console I will follow that game to what ever console it goes to but I doubt that Nintendo will ever let Zelda leave....

I'm really looking forward to the Xbox360 coming out.
Ive heard a lot of good things about it, they have taken all the things that hackers found that you can do with the original xbox and incorporated it into the new one. Had heard on a cnn interview that it would allow you to record tv onto it , i cant see that happening with the ps3. Mind you i think the two consoles are going in different directions, ps3 sticiking to pure console gaming whereas the xbox360 going more into a multimedia console |
