    Alright, there seems to be a lot of hype right now over which next-gen system is going to be the best for various reasons. I love games and plan on (eventually/hopefully) developing them post-doctoral, so I have every intention of getting all three when they come out. However, I am curious as to which systems people are planning on getting and why.

    I'm like those above tbh..all 3 eventually..assuming there are games I want to play on each of them though (which there blatantly will be).

    I'll prolly just get one nearish to launch though, like I did this generation, and then pick the other 2 up when there cheap as chips, again like I did this generation. Much as I'd like all three as soon as they come out I have a ton of md games to catch up on let alone ss, ps2, my whole collection etc:)

    All three eventually, but maybe none at launch.
     
  9. I'll most likely get the Revolution at launch, but after that I'm not so sure. I've half a mind to pick up the backwards compatable version of the Xbox360 to enjoy the games I missed out on this time. I gues the only one I'm noncommittal about is the PS3, but that's just because I haven't seen much mention of games at all for it.

    Dead or Alive 4 though, mmm....

    Revolution for me at the moment. I really like it's looks. That will fit in very well with my media stuff unlike the crazy bulky PS3 and the oddly shapped but not as bad at the PS3, Xbox 360.

    I voted PS3 and Revolution. But it could turn out to be all 3, eventually.

    Undecided, it entirely depends on the games. I'll be getting Revolution by the looks of things now, but like everyone else here, if there's good reason to pick up one of the others once the price is right, why not?

    I guess I'll go ahead and vote Revolution.

    This is a collectors board, leaning towards dev items.... seems a pretty silly question as most people here own everything under the sun...

    All 3 but i'll start off with a x-box360 which is most appealing to me now revolution i'm not so sure about getting.

    I see no point in the other 2 right now.

    Nintendo Revolution for me, thank you come again.

    I might think about the PS3 if it doesn't suck donkey ass like the PS2 did, librarywise. I'm bitter about PS2, I expected much more from it.

    Playstation 3 & Xbox 360. (none at launch anyway).

    I'm already saving money for 6 months (so i can buy stuff when i want) so maybe i can have all three.
