The Next Generation Console War, Which Side Are You On?

[disrupter006]

As of right now, I am unsure and will vote once the Revolution news is finally released.

I would like this to be stickied so we can get a good count what people will be purchasing (as of right now at least).

EDIT: Is there any way to get this to show on all 3 console forums to give everyone a chance to vote? It doesn't seem like many people check this forum as apposed to the other 3.

[Tael]

I'll get all 3 eventually.

[SuperLuigiBros]

Nintendo Revolution has all my attention at the moment, and will almost definatly continue to have it for a long time to come. The xbox was cool though, however I never got one. If my brother were to get an x360 then I would definatly enhoy myself, so its Revolution and x360 for me.

ps3 is...well...there arnt words for the loathing i feel for sony.

[Pro A.]

I hope Nintendo will get their head out of their ass for a change and deliver some sort of victory, but in general I have complete neutrality. I hope the games continue to improve and that we reap the benefits.

[koten]

I'm a Nintendo fan for th most part, so Revolution is the first console I'm getting, and probably the only one.

[OnBake Platinum]

Rev, without a doubt. I was thinking of 360, but forget it now that I've seen the prices.

[ScratchedAt]

Rev...and maybe ps3, fugg the box.

[Viper]

Rev and if sony can fix some issues I have and/or if Big N drops the ball big time...PS3.

I have no interest in the Box. What it brings, either Sony, Big N or the PC will also have (barring a few completely exclusive titles but none that would warrant that price).

[dncardman]

Revolution...if it completly sucks then I'm still not quite sure what I would get...leaning a little more on a PS3 if that's the case (which I hope it isn't)

[Phoenix]

I might get a 360, but that's become less likely since I've heard the pricing. But I'll definately get a Revolution.

[Shadow Voa]

A Nintendo Revolution is guranteed on launch day, and possibly a PS3 later since Im a fan of these three series and PS3 will have them:
- Resident Evil 5
- Metal Gear Solid 4
- Final Fantasy XIII

[OutlawAdidas]

REVOLUTION

[disrupter006]

PS3 will most likely be more than the 360 so good luck waiting for that.

[Ocelot9]

PS3 will most likely be more than the 360 so good luck waiting for that.


PS3 Whoooohooooo!

[pac4life]

hmm
i honoustly have no idea...im gonna wait and see...im interested in the rev, i really was into the ps3 until the guy said how expensive its gonna be, and the 360 has the best range of games (thats only becuase its games have acutally been announced).

but i am putting my foot down right now and saying i will have 2 MAX.. i dont want to spend that much money on a console with another library of games, + i dont have the time anymore.
if nintendo can score a gta port, ill be all in for a rev. if not, then ill have to save up for a ps3.

gonna be a spectator for a while... maybe ill get a DS and go all out on that.

[Loomer]

Revolution!!! Oh yeah!!!

[Hrama]

PS3 and Rev for sure, but I will probably get a PS3 for sure. Box... well.... probably not.

[Dwhitten]

Revolution fo show.

[Phoenix]

Umm... can I change my vote?

Not really, it'll take more than an overly wierd controller to make me want to not get a Revolution.

[\\']-[()619]

i will get Rev and then PS3.fock the xbox

[Garfunkel]

ps3, screw the box such a ripoff and no good features

[disrupter006]

My vote officially goes in the Revolution tally box. I can't wait for games with that remote.

[HolyPaladin]

I've already preordered an Xbox 360, but I also intend to get a PS3 and a Revolution. Besides the consoles, I've also got a pretty new computer than should get me through PC gaming for years to come.

[D3adcell]

I am getting all 3, already have my 360 on pre-order.

I don't get how some of you people are just saying fuck xbox. Maybe you didn't enjoy the current xbox so much, but I enjoyed mine. It will have far more exclusives then the current xbox has and more exlclusives then many of you are thinking it will. I think ps3 will probably be one with the fewer exclusives next gen since japanese developers are now supporting the 360. Although PS3 will probably have the same ammount of exclusives 360 will (they will probably have roughly the same PS3 may have more), the main reason i'm getting all 3 is for exclusives and PS3 will have MGS4, DMC4, & probably Socom4. I think the system to get for exclusives next gen is going to however be the Revolution with that controller, you will not be able to play games the same way on ps3 or 360, change is good.

[Zodiacboyscorp]

Revolution is the only system that has me interested. I personally have started to get burned out. It's all the same anymore. Don't get me wrong, I loved it, now have that experience on the go. For that I have a DS and a PSP. Until something really drastic happens, and we see revolutionary games on the other systems, I don't foresee me buying them.

This coming from the guy who prefers the PS2/Xbox over the gamecube.

The revolution is the real deal! :rockon:

Except that works both ways they will get a lot of exclusives cause it will be hard to port from, probably. But i think they will get less ports to the system for the same reason, which doesn't matter much for you since you said you are getting all three. But i still think X360 will have the least exclusives and PS3 will have the most. I probably going to buy 2 and im getting a PS3, so it's X360 or the Rev, and right now in my book Rev is in the lead so I voted for PS3 and Rev.

[Carlos]

All three consoles.

I want to own all three this time around.

[Tommy]

I am well and truly on the Xbox 360 bandwagon. I didn't buy a PS2 or a GameCube and I doubt I'll buy a PS3 or Revolution. I don't see the point in having more than one console.

Have you heard of the 'shell' attachment they plan to release? It's similar to a Wavebird GC controller that houses the Rev controller inside it for 3rd party mutliplatform games.

Here is an IGN mock up.

Porting to Rev shouldn't be any more difficult than the other two.

[venomv]

I'd heard mention of it, but I wasn't sure what it was. However if that doen't come standard with the system (which it might who knows), my point stands, I think. But if it does then I don't see much in the way of a differnece this gen then last gen when it comes to exclusives and multi-consoles. Except Rev might have less ports from it.

The problem I see with that shell is the 3rd party companies might not take complete advantage of the Rev controller and might just simply use the shell.

[Crow]

i dont really like FPS' so that counts out most xbox games, iyl prob end up with a PS3, my mate is gettin the Rev so if its good then iyl get that too

[Viper]

Which is all probable but still gives the Rev all the normal 3rd party multiplatform titles. It will be the exclusive titles (1st and 3rd) and those dev that like to give out certain exclusive content in their multiplatform titles (Like Namco did with SCII) that will fully take advantage of the Rev controller features.

Granted it may be a simple thing to implement and all 3rd parties may use the features in some fashion.

[Pro A.]

Either that, or they'll just ignore the new features and force the Revolution to play by their rules.

[IEatFriedPikmin]

Revolution for sure, and possibly Xbox 360. I am gonna wait and see if the games are any good.

[speed stick]

I am well and truly on the Xbox 360 bandwagon. I don't see the point in having more than one console.

Same here. I've pre-ordered my 360 along with 4 friends so far. Only one console is needed and I have already made that choice.

[Kevin]

I think I'll probably get a Revolution and an Xbox360. I'm definitely not getting 360 at launch though.

[Cofey]

I'm a huge Nintendo fan. Whether you want to call me a fanboy or not, I don't care. I don't consider myself one. But I will definitely get the Revolution on launch. Disregarding Nintendo's history of amazing first party titles, the system itself is just so attractive in every way - 20 years of downloadable game content, free online, and of course a seemingly incredible controller. But I digress.

I am also definitely getting a 360 at launch. Already have it paid for in fact.

I know I'll wind up getting a PS3 eventually, I just don't know when. If it's really as much as rumor makes it out to be, I'll wait for a price drop. Given Sony's abyssmal track record for durability, I'm not willing to spend $400-$500 on one of their products.

[dead718]

I am defintley get rev all the wya, no PS3 or 360 no matter what

[kaphwan]

I'm getting a ps3 when I can.

Seriously, one console and 2 tv's, eight controllers (seven wireless)

Split-screen is like all the multiplayer i play these days and those features are a bloody godsend.

Throw in Killzone (and FFXIII) and we have a must-buy.

Edit:
^ "Screw Sony, the thieving little freaks"?
Yeah, because Ninty so already made the cell chip.
(Sigh)
