Depends on pricing, If the Rev is <$200 and the PS3 is >$500 It's obviously going to be rev for me (as a secondary after the X360 of course). But with similar pricepoints (less than a $100 difference) I'd go with the PS3. Also depends on who wins the format war (if blu-ray I'd get a PS3 just for the blue ray capabilities)

id go for the revolution as the franchise has some nice exclusive titles... i dont see playstation has anything else to offer that the 360 doesnt already cover..

I voted Revolution for now, but that could change in the future depending on a few things some others have already posted:
1. It really depends on where this format war ends up - if Blu-Ray indeed pulls through, a PS3 would be a great way to have a Blu-Ray player from the get-go, similar to using the PS2 as a DVD player way back when (I used it for both, as I didn't have a DVD player before buying my PS2). The possibilities of Blu-Ray discs holding games seems interesting, although I've heard from a number of people that only movies would be used, and games would simply be DVD9 or equivalent?

2. The Revolution really has me excited in the same ways the DS did. Nintendo seems to have struck gold with their DS, and the Revolution seems like a pretty cool idea if put into practice well. The games will determine whether the Revolution will soar or crash and burn, as it doesn't really offer much else...Gamecube was a bit of a disappoint for me (especially coming from some great titles on the N64) and I hope Nintendo can really WOW me this time around.

3. The pricing is obviously a huge concern of mine as well as many others...if Nintendo pulls off a cool little machine with more than half the price tag of it's competitors, it's safe to say I will certainly be picking up a Rev on the release date. If rumors of the PS2 being $500+ are true, well then I'm going to sit out for a year or so until I really see something that makes me want to throw down that kind of cash, like Metal Gear Solid 4, assuming it's as great as most of us expect.

I say revolution because of the Nintendo-only videogames I'll be missing out on. PS3 and 360 will probably have the same games with just a few exclusive for PS3 that I'll miss.

I'd have to go with the PS3 because of the Blu-Ray.

I'll pick PS3 cause of HDMI, Blu-Ray and GT5

Revolution. Although I think it might not be as successful as the other two consoles, I love Nintendo's first party titles. I won't be able to get my Zelda fix on 360 or PS3.

i will definitely buy both!
but very probably PS3 first because there won't be anything like Gran Turismo 5, nowhere.
if M$/xbox360 had such a killer app, there wouldn't be a single reason for purchasing a PS(1, 2 or3).

Forza?

On the poll issue, I'd go for Revolution because of the exclusives.

PS3...Nintendo seems to focus too much on youth releases...

Not going to buy either one, I will stick with my 360 from the begining till the end, becasue I have the money, but spending money for more than one next-gen console.

I have chosen the PS3, only for GT5. But if M$ release Forza2 for x360 the same day, goodbye ps3!!!

id go with revolution, i love all there exclusive games and there what i grew up playing.

Thinking about the console war, with the rise in console prices nintendo will finally have a considerable advantage if its price under 200. Think about all the parents with kids wanting a console, all they see is the price.

Revolution all the way!
I want a REAL alternative to my Xbox 360

I don't own a Xbox 360 and never will. I'll not be getting a Playstation 3 either but I do plan on getting a Revolution as it's the only one breaking free of the cookie cutter that has become modern gaming.

I'd want the Revolution simply because I want to be able to experience something different and have access to the entire Nintendo back catalogue. Most games that appear on the Ps3 will also be available for the 360 and if Blu-Ray becomes the dominant format then M$ will most likely release an add on just like HD-DVD as they have already stated.

Revolution for sure. Nintendo exclusive franchises are the best gaming has to offer. Zelda, Metroid, Mario alone are worthy of a purchase. Overall I feel that Nintendo has the most innovative atmosphere, and it always pushes the bubble. I need some new creative FUN games that draw me in. Nintendo if anyone will be the one to push these games out. Shigeru Miyamoto is a god and creates nothing but pure genius 100% of the time.

Also, as seen with this generation, if you had a xbox, you *Most of the time* had a PS2 with better graphics. Anything you could find on PS2 you could probably get on xbox with the exclusion of some good PS2 lineups. I like Sony, dont get me wrong, but you can't deny the fact that the two will be very cross platform. Nintendo however is totally exclusive more so.

Pricepoint will be great once again. The library of games that Nintendo is going to open up through backwards compat and online downloads will be awesome.

PS3? No way, the real competition is between PS3 and X360, and Rev will be on it's own, so I'm not gonna support a competitor and buy PS3. Revolution over PainStation 3... and that boomerang controller looks _UGLY_... but the Rev controller isn't so much better looking... but it could be used for some cool innovations (which Nintendo definitely doesn't lack, look at DS ). But I'll more propably buy a next-gen handheld than another console, as 360 is enough and should be enough.
But maybe if PS3 surprises me, it *could* be mine... just like with Xbox and PS2, I loved the PS2 but when I saw Xbox, there was no way I'd go back to PS2

wow, that was acctually pretty hard, but i picked ps3....i think 5 more minutes of thinking id end up with revolution....can i change my answer?:-(

I'd go for the revolution. My reason? I want the controller It seems like nintendo are taking risks and thats what i like. It'd probably have some good games too.

I would never buy a playstation. I am loyal to MS, not that its a big thing to me, and i just hate the ps cos its so japanese, all the games are just crap. I havn't played any, but from what i have played, i just don't like em.

Unless the games that sony showed at e3 TRULY look like that, Revolution is what I'm getting. Revolution will be small, cheap and amazing. The best feature of revolution is that you can play all the games from the older systems.

Does it mean the games aren't fun? Not for me. I love the Nintendo exclusives much more than the Sony exclusives and the Revo controller is just a bonus. I might end up getting a PS3 after a few price drops (like I did with the PS2 that I hardly play) but I sure as hell will be getting a Revolution before the PS3.

I would have to go with another 360...

I'd have to go with ps3, and i dont' see only a few handful of games not being cross platformed i see alot, since x360 doesn't even use hd-dvd for gaming, and alot of games are taking up or going to take up alot more than just 8 gigs. the revolution i haven't been looking into all i hear is it's a little pumped up gamecube, i honestly don't know though. I have a ps2, xbox, and gamecube and x360, i've played my xbox the most since i can put all my games on the hd and it's easier to manage, but most of the games i enjoy are on the ps2. only thing gamecube has offered me is smash bros melee, and soul cal 2 with link. anything else i find too childish, i'm sorry i'm not like you guys and enjoy the old classics like mario, i'm so tired of seeing him on every system nintendo puts out but that's just me. Personally i feel nintendo is good with new innovations but when it comes to new gaming they just stick with the oldies, metroid, star fox, mario, donkey kong, f-zero etc. I saw pikmin for gc when that came out and animal crossing and i was like wtf is this, but like i said that's just me i'm not into those type of games anymore. i do enjoy the mario golf, and mario tennis, but i did enjoy hot shots golf for playstation when that was out and segas tennis for dreamcast too.

i will not buy an xbox 360, playstation 3, or revolution. im done as a gamer...

I have to go with Revolution. PS3 will blow it out of the water with graphics, but it's about the gameplay. It's about not just sitting on your couch, being involved in the game. Look at how much people love DDR.
I can wait to snipe some people with my hand.

BTW, I most likely will be preordering and getting both (and I have a 360, too).

i'd buy the rev, not insterested in any of the playstaion systems (but psp) not now not ever.

Revolution , I have always been a Nintendo fan.

I hate sony

ps3 man .....blue ray of course.....mgs4

I voted PS3.

It pains me to click the button, knowing that Sony is bound to drop features and not keep promises.

Also knowing how bad there last console was. I cant believe how well PS2 sold. They just kept breaking, and people kept buying.

Reasons for voting: MGS, range of capabilities, and the inexpensive (hopefully) BLU Ray player thats build in.

Waiting for Oblivion.

Obviously the Revolution. Its something different to the 360 and PS3. PS3 will just be the same or very similar games to the 360 bar a few gems which I'll certainly do without if its going to be the predicted £400 and £60 a game. The Revolution is gonna be pretty cheap too and possibly allow access to alot of Nintendo and even third party N64, SNES, NES, GBA and Gameboy games. That'll be cool.

does it really matter? you allready have a 360...

Revolution all the way. Even if the controller's a flop, even if 99% of the games suck, we'll still have the Nintendo first-party, the majority of which will kick ass. Zelda, Metroid, the *real* sequel to Mario 64, SSB, a new Resident Evil (hopefully), plus the (very good) chance that the controller will add a new level of interaction with games. If there's one thing Nintendo has always gotten right, it's the controller. Pretty much invented the D-Pad, shoulder buttons, analog stick, RF communication for controllers. All which are now considered "standard." Add the entire first- and second-party catalog NES-N64 (and hopefully a lot of the third party), and you've got a PS3 killer right there.

Yes ill NOT go with PS3 because of the competition...So ill chose the Rev

I don't think anyone should even look at revolution. THey got nothing they are selling the roms again, fucking nintendo ... PS3 and 360 all the way. PS3 for RPGs and MGS GT DMC God of War. Xbox360 for online games. No fucking way I am getting Revolution.

REV ALL THE WAY.Iam too much of a nintendo fan to pass it up.Nintendo is the only company who still amazes me with new ideas.Ideas no other company would never try to market.Common who would think a touch screen dual screen gameboy could be so fun.Or a remote as a controler.Nintendo don't relie on the graphic before gameplay thats why NINTENDO GOT THE BIG BALLS.360 is my darkside and PS3 is my doorstop.

Oh yeah only reason PS2 did so well is because Dreamcast was losing money and said there were going to stop making it.So what would u chose ps2 or dead dreamcast?ANd the other reason ps2 sold so well is because everyone owned 2.POS broke so easly every one had to buy a replacement, LOL thats shity.

ok.... how can you play somthing that you have never played??

I would have to go with the PS3 just because of Blue-ray capabilities. As of right now i am enjoying many of Nintendos titles on my xbox. I dont need the Revolution for Nintendo games.

Ps2 a bad system? I dont know what ps2 system u got. Hate them or love them Sony changed the industry with their Playstation. They moved so far ahead of Nintendo that now they're the underdogs in this war. Like Peter Moore said in an interview with EGM "Nintendo moves to the beat of a different drummer." I am so sick of Mario and all his friends its not even funny. They put him on every piece of software because they know it sells. Its the only thing that sells for them. Metroid is great and so is Zelda, other then that they have nothing else. Sony created a system where any company can create games for them. Thats how we got Grand Theft Auto. Ps2 has some of the greatest games ever made for a console: Shadow of the Colossus, God of War, Devil May Cry, Kingdom Hearts, Metal Gear Solid and the list goes on and on. To me all Nintendo has is what they as a company has to offer. Which is literally just Metroid, Zelda and Mario. Which leads me to believe that Nintendo should go the route of Sega and just make games for Sony and MS. The gaming industry would be in a much better place if they did so.

I am definitely going to get a Revolution. Nintendo has put themselves in an excellent position for the number two spot as it has some truly unique features that niether the PS3 or 360 has.

who cares about HD. It'll still look good.

And i have to say as someone who already bought 11 DS games:
Mario 64 DS, Warioware Touched, Meteos, Nintendogs, Advance Wars, Mario Kart, Mario & Luigi 2, Metroid Prime Pinball, animal crossing, Castlevania and Tony Hawk

I am all the way dedicated to nintendo, the innovations keep going and the quality is ALWAYS there guaranteed! Never bought a sony system except for a chipped, used PS1 and i stopped playing The PS1 as soon as i finally got it... truly sad, but seriously I am not a fan of Sony and all the generic RPG's out there and what they have done with the FF series (except for FF7).

Revolution is going to kick ass! And DS and GBA are still leading the handheld market! hell FF5/FF6 compilation for GBA has been announed (at least in japan) and THAT is gonna gimme a SERIOUS run for my money!!!

Ninten'doh!

Revolution for me... there are too many great first party Nintendo games to pass up.

Very true. Wish PS3 will have a better laser. Gave my vote for PS3 anyway.

regards, Stephen

I voted for the nin rev
Due to having kids it would be a console for them to play on so it has to be the rev..
They love there cube with all the playable kids games
allthough they do like kameo on 360 and the FN3 demo they not much else they like
so it would have to be rev.
And im sorta looking forward to the rev my self too more then the ps3 anyways...

Anyone with common sense would go for the PS3.
To own the two most powerfull console on earth is not a choice it's a privilege

GT5???

Forza Motorsport 2 anybody?

Gran Turismo has like 4+ years on Forza and yet Forza is still the better simulator.

Definitely PS3. I don't have a PSX or PS2 so that way the larges possible amount of games are possible. Plus, Nintendo might have more exclusives, but they are usually kiddy games like a 17th mario party. Also, the controller makes no sense! I saw someone say they would buy a revolution because of the "innovation" but all of the games he listed are remakes/sequels of games that have existed for several years.
