The Next Generation of Consoles: PS3, Xbox 360, Wii

PS3, Xbox360 and the new Nintendo console (currently codenamed "revolution") are all the buzz right now. X360 should be out before the hollidays, while PS3 and Nintendo are releasing their consoles early next year.

I'll wait until they're all out before I choose.

PS3 and X360 are both going for insanely good graphics. Though there haven't been many PS3 screens/videos yet ... X360's graphics look amazing (at least they do in all the racing games - but those games always look great).

Apparently, however, Nintendo isn't going so much for graphics. They want to change the gaming experience. Should be interesting to see what they're up to once they finally announce it. Hopefully they'll actually tell us something at E3.

I'll just stick to the best system.

And before debating goes too far...

it's NOT BETTER THAN THE GAME CUBE CONTROLLER


but i also hope nintendo goes for something different. i dont think they can compete if it's the same stuff as the other two systems, and that would be rather depressing.

Well, they're going with less graphics concentration, so if they don't offer something big, they're going to have to stick to portable gaming.

Also, I love how this is the only industry with a five-year reset switch. A company that screwed up one year can completely turn it around next time. And each time, consumers have the chance to pick a new console (or consoles) to invest in (I call it an investment because as soon as you choose the console, you also choose which company you will be buying games from for the next five years or so).

Metal Gear Solid 4 (a futuristic post-MSG2 stealth action title) has just been announced for the PS3.
