You gotta love how they completely fail to mention DS or the fact that the DS is going online in a month.
If PDZ doesn't suck, i'll get a 360 as soon as the game is available. But God I wish by some miracle it would come out on Revolution... I hate buying a system for one game I want. I also hope Nintendo is trying to get Ge and PD for Rev's d/l games...
Revolution at launch obviously, but I have no reason to get a PS3 yet. MGS is fun but hardly a reason to buy the entire system. the usual sony 'fighting game, racing game' packages dont excite me either, unless it's a fantasy racer, which hasn't been announced yet.
In fact the only game announced for PS3 that has my interest is Warhawk 2 which could prove to be a big hit... but looking at the original Warhawk, the flying mechanics and the music are the only things worth mentioning in that game. Most of the levels sucked in design and the sound effects were horrid. (same sound bank and graphics engine from Twisted Metal) But the flying mechanics and fluid everything was jut through a d-pad was really amazing.
So PS3 is a distant 3rd right now, unless a game pop ups like square and... Final Fantasy Tactics Ultra 'You have no life' Edition. Otherwise it's going to be a bunch of me-too and multi-platform games, I cant stand any of Sony's mascots or platformers... though they'll probably be the first of the next gen systems to get a Castlevania game, which deserves some looking in to.
I have no problem with buying an XBox2 for PDZ and nothing else. I know the 360 will most likely have about 5 completely exclusive games for it in its life, counting PDZ and Kameo. But, PDZ, if it's going to be what I think it will be, is going to be totally worth it.
Still a distant 2nd on my priorities. The Revolution (or whatever they end up calling it) is going to be tough. I can see me in EB looking at the Revolution thinking: "Food for a week... or Revolution... life... or.... life without Revolution...". It'll be a tough call. :D
