New Gen Consoles

So the new gen consoles are about to be about and god knows all of us geeks have to have atleast one of them. For me it's gonna be the new xbox and possibly the new nintendo revolution if I like it.
What about you guys. What system are you looking forward to getting and what games?

They're all too damn expensive, but I figure in a couple years with a small loan I can get a PS3.

Don't know about the Xbox 360, but I've heard that the PS3 will debut somewhere north of $300.

400+ for the PS3, 300 for Xbox 360.

I'll probably get both, but the PS3 probably won't come out until mid-2006.

I think my parents said they'd be mortgaging the house so they can afford to buy me a PS3

the soped up one contains a harddrive, whereas the 300 one contains no such hard drive. to buy the harddrive asside from the xbox will set you back 250, so it is a deal to buy the 400 dollar one

Its not really "different"...the 400 one just comes with a HD and other accessories liked the wireless controller, which you can just add to the $300 core (call it a base if you want...one that will fit a bunch of "bolt-ons") later on. But the thing is, buying the $400 package at launch is cheaper than buying the core and adding the same accessories later.


I think the best game at launch will the Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, a must buy.

EDIT: I just read a few posts above, sorry dude for repeating the same things you said :P.

I hope they have black 360's...I'm not really looking forward to the white ones. Does anyone know if they're gonna come in black?

White/silverish is the only color for the Xbox 360 (at least for now). If you don't like they have custom faceplates (like how faceplats on phones work). PS3 will have three colors, black silver and I forgot what the last one was.

'd never pay for those things. Man, I don't even use my PS2 for anything but as a DVD player. Oh, and I still play all the Mario stuff on N64.

My brother has always been good at bumming nice gifts from me, but $400+ for a PS3 calls for a big, fat, negative and a link to job search sites!
