That's the problem with 'real' fanboys, they get too over-protective.

I am a Nintendo fanboy, I admit, but you have to give credit where credit's due and the graphics of the other two systems are awesome. I am actually getting the 360 first since it's out but I have no doubt in my mind that the REV will be the best. It will be way more fun than the other two IMO because of the controller. Graphics aren't everything but they sure are something. I will get all three, so there.

ups: PS3 and X360 have better graphics, Rev has Mario and Zelda....
to me, all the controllers for the next-gen Systems suck....
  • PS3 controller: looks like a boomerang, and hard to control
  • X360 controller: too many buttons everywhere, kinda big and blocky
  • Rev Controller: bad button layout(having to reach down from control pad to button back to control pad in a split-second)
The PS2 and GC controllers were great.... the next-gen systems(and original Xbox)? not so much...
But just so all those rabid Xbox fanboys out there and I are clear, i'm not dissing the Xbox. It rocks. It has Halo! It just has a bad controller...

Those rumors are false Zero ex, Sony has said that the PS3 controller will remain as is. Also, Dylan, the 360 controller feels very good in your hands and have you actually tried the PS3 controller or Rev controller, from what I hear Sony chose to give their controller that design for a reason: it feels very comfortable(I can't imagine it does but that's what I heard). I know nothing about how the Rev controller feels so I will say nothing.

Anyways, the Rev has Zelda, Mario, Metroid Prime, SSB, and the controller so, yeah.

I quite like the 360 controllers... but the games are mediocre to say the least, and the graphics.... to tell the truth, they looked like 'Harvest moon: a wonderfull life' to me. At least, the grass, trees and water did. I was pretty disappointed.
Quite frankly I don't think the graphics are that important. It's more the games, the speed of it loading and the controllers.

Here's my list of what's most important to least important in a system.(put in your own if you wish)
1. Games/Gameplay
2. Lack of glitches and lifespan
3. Sound quality
4. Controllers
5. Loading speed
6. Cool extra features
7. Graphics(as long as they're N64/PSX and above, and even some SNES)
8. Outlook, weight, durability(as in getting scratches/dents etc)
9. Loudness of the system(as in fan and stuff...)
10. What doesn't matter AT ALL is the size of the games(some people at school tell me that GC discs are too small and they would lose them, if that's how they are, they're just totally stupid, and somehow they don't lose psp discs and GBA/DS games, but i do know a few who have lost their xbox, idiots)

Hardcore Nintendo fanboy here.

Hear Xbox is going pretty far with popularity, some games looked neat. I hear Halo 3 will kick Metroid Prime 3's a** (which I don't believe :P)

halo over metroid? HAHAHAHAHA--no. Halo is NOTHING like metroid. metroid has a cooler story line, puzzles, upgrades to weapons and other such things, awesome graphics, and requires a certain level of skill to beat(whether that's advanced or weak, i don't know). halo you just blast people around. metroid you actually do things besides hours of blowing things up.

Dude, have you ever played Halo? One of the main reasons I like the Halo games is because of the engaging story and gameplay. Also, it's not just about blasting guys endlessly most of the time. Sometimes, you have to stealth to move deeper into some heavily guarded areas. Plus, the Energy Sword rules!

There is one thing that Halo has that Metroid doesn't. Online play like Xbox Live.

So, when Halo 3 comes out... that's when I'll get the Xbox 360.

umm, the only reason why i use it as a reason is becuase i've played halo 1 and 2 at a friends house for like 9 hours straight. it was the only thing he had so i had no choice. not bad, but...not good either. multiplayer and story mode. oh and metroid is cool enough on it's own to be a great game without online, too bad.

Though, i have heard of games for each console, and from nintendo i liked the super smash bros. but, i will need to play it before i buy it. About ps3, it will have RE5 and devil may cry 4 and sony said that they will change the controller, that's good, the other controller looked bad.

Well, I havent seen revoultion or ps3 to judge anything about them, All I have seen was xbox 360, I think itz a kool system. They have many kool games that are coming out, not to mention the graphics are even more advanced then xbox 1 itself. But I guess, I have to see how ps3 and rev. are like to. But I like 360 ^__^

I don't see where "engaging story" fits in with Halo, the plot for that game was boring... Oo

I have seen maybe 4 posts in this entire thread that aren't bias driven in some way or another. Meh, XD

And what's wrong with a game not being online. 96% of all the good games out there aren't online, and like I said, they're good games.

Forget it.

This is turning into a "Nintendo rules" thread again. Screw my opinions. A person like me has no place in a Pro-Nintendo forum.

Hey, don't be like that. I'm not even in nintendo's side, and there are only like 2 or 3 that are all the way with nintendo.

Though i like nintendo's ideas, i still hate the controller. For me the most important things in a videogame console are:
- type of games that will be for that console.
- the controller
- that can use games from other generations.( really this is not so important)

Once the PS3 comes out, it will only solidify Sony's place at the top of the video game food chain!

Xbox and Nintendo are still going to be relegated to 2nd and 3rd place. And that's all she wrote!
