It will be interesting... for those who understand the hardware that these new systems have (except Nintendo, who has kept the Revolution's specs top secret) it will be really a cool thing to see what these systems are REALLY capable of ( I do like the morrowind series and that is reason number one that I am going to be an early adopter... Lord, I haven't been one since the SNES days.)
Gears of War has me very hyped about what this machine is capable of (I drooled when I saw what the newest revision of the Unreal engine is capable of displaying... beautiful), and I have to admit that Microsoft at least looks like if they were doing things the right way (release date before Christmas, an wide selection of games at launch and a very powerful console, more than current high end computer systems running on DX10)
Yet I cannot ignore the power of the PS3. Although their reliability is next to zero, the PS3 with it's dildo shaped controller (yes Sprung, if you throw it it WILL come back at you with a vengeance) has cutting edge technology that quite frankly has my expectatives high... (even if the system looks like the 1000 watt rockford spyder amp in my car... UUUGLY)
Nintendo... Nintendo, here comes my loyalist side. I cant help than feel a bit sorry because I must admit that I am losing my faith in them... if Revolution doesn't save their rep as a kiddie system they will be really left in a niche market... and they should release some specs to hype us tech-savvy guys, right Admin?
I can say that, it was about damn time to see another console wars! But that's just me .
EDIT: Cyber, you are right... the pure console days are almost gone...maybe in that sense they do not respect us gamers, I agree... well, I can't say the same for Nintendo. They haven't shown us what their blackbox can do yet. I hope it remains true to what it was designed to do: run games, good games.
