What next gen system looks the best?

[Samuraid]

It's probably not the best idea to judge a book by its cover...or a console by its appearance for that matter. :rolleyes2 Just my $0.02...

Well..if you are going purely by the looks of it..i feel Revolution is best.

The PS3 looks bulky and huge...i am not sure how it scales to the PS2 but it seems like right now where my PS2 is, wont fit a PS3 as easily..and things will have to be moved. So i hate its size...at least from what i see, maybe if i had a side by side comparison i can make a better judgment. Just seems unnecessarily large...is it going to have multiple functions too? I mean PS3 + scanner + printer + toaster + router? >_> I dont know...unless theres a GOOD reason for being huge...i like my consoles reletively small.

Xbox..i dont konw looks like those more compact computers...just doesnt seem to fit a console look at all, i mean as much as i dont like PS3's bulkyness, it at least resembles a console somewhat..this thing is like...dang O_o *pukes*

Revolution! I like it so far, its slim, sleek, and very easily put into any pace at your whim. I like its smooth exterior and blue lights make it look kinda...cool i guess. That, and also it has multiple colors ^^ i might actually get a colorful one...i was so disappointed when GC didnt release their orange one here leaving me to get Black. ; ;

So Nintendo for the win on looks for me.

Well that's what all the other threads are for. This is just for saying "wow, that looks pretty!"

That goes without saying. Claims like "I play a console for the games" or "a console is only as good as the games made for it" and things of that sort aren't as insightful as they used to be. I'd hope most gamers intelligent enough to post on a message board know better than to be suckered into a purchase by pretty styling (or maybe that's giving too much credit - who knows). For example, while I think the PSP is sexy, I have no interest in it, or plan on purchasing it unless I had the money to throw away on it after getting a DS first. By that same line of thought, I think the XBox 360 may be the best-looking system in the next generation, but I'd much sooner buy a Revolution at this point.

We're just being mesmorized by the shineez for the time being before we can actually play any of these new-fangled doodads.

PS3 looks the best 2 me
Xbox looks not all that and the nintendo's design has already been done

[Destai]

I like the PS3 but Im pretty fond of the nintendo rev. I get the feeling Tidus Andronchinus isnt too fond of the Xbox That particular picture makes it look really half assed.

[Shoeberto]

I can't shake off the feeling that the PS3's controller looks like a sex toy. Am I crazy, or does someone else see that?

[Lindy]

It's a shiny, silver, expensive croissant.

[Xander]

GBA SP > all, always, plz.

The next gen ones all look pretty boring and crappy.

[Destai]

I really dont mind the controller but Im torn between Bananna and sex toy.

What about "The Phantom"?

[Agent Proto]

I like both PS3 and Revolution's look. The PS3 looks unique, and it's quite shiny, and I'm sure the controller will be fixed. xD

And the Revolution as well, because it's small, sleek, and pretty stylish, and I also like the fact that it uses a slot instead of a tray which can fit both GCN games, Revolution games, and DVDs/Music CDs (which I'm sure it can do.). I'd so trade my GameCube for the Revolution, because it can play GCN games as well. <3

What about "The Phantom"?

Pretty much guaranteed vaporeware at this point. I saw an editorial talking about it recently but I don't recall where.

[Samuraid]

The Phantom does exist, but pales in comparison to the latest consoles. Infinium Labs didn't catch the tidal wave and thus got crushed.

Well that's what all the other threads are for. This is just for saying "wow, that looks pretty!"

I ended up voting for the Revolution.

The Phantom NEVER existed, it was a total lie and you know it.
