    Rubedo: I have high expectations for the Revolution. I'm sure Nintendo won't let me down.

    I was actually only talking about system launch.

    Resident Evil 5 and Mistwalker though will be promising.

    PS3 and Revolution. I might end up with a 360 at a later date if it suprises me and actually turns out decent, though.

    AS I said earlier, Revolution has all the old games at launch, as well as I'm sure at least one of their games from a series, ie Mario or something, and we know the later titles.

    PS3 has nothing attracting me at launch worth paying that high price.
    360 has Perfect Dark Zero, about the only thing attracting me to it, but since my roomate here in college is getting a 360, I'll make sure he gets that game and I'll be all set!

    I don't know. I'm going to sit back a long time till the price isn't insane, and the systems start getting some good games.

    I mostly like good RPGs, so whichever system goes more that way is the one for me. I have no favorite company. Though I do like how nintendo actually tries new things.
    Boo!

    We still don't know how any of their games are going to put the controller to use though. I'm not committing to anything with Nintendo until I see for myself how their games will use this thing. By not giving us info on the games, their biggest attention grabber so far is also the one thing keeping me from definitely saying yes to a revolution.

    The revolution loses points for me because in the end, your blowing money on attachments you need for the remote. Th Xbox looks like a BIIIG improvement from its original because the games are getting better(im seeing games actually from other countries) and they dont have the hugantic bahemoth Microsoft called a controller. PS3 will come to be really good after awhile. But then again, I said that with my DS and I only have one game and I dont even like it. So on the scale of 1-10 Rev gets a 3(the games are reppetetive) X360 gets a 9 ( itll probably have a better variety of games than last time, but the better version costs 499.99) PS3 gets a 7. (It looks to be promising)

    Nintendo has always screwed everyone over in the past like, more expensive cartrigdes while CDs were the thing, and itty bitty Cds that couldnt play DVDs or audio or online or USB and I can go on. Besides you can just emulate or your computer if you really want to. BTW is Xbox live free or monthly payments?
    Active after a year? ZOMG.

    But yeah when i DID post a year ago I was an ass to everyone. So sorry about that. You can totally tell I used to think i was "gangsta" just by my name. Boy have I changed.

    PS3 for me, unless something drastic comes up.

    Nintendos last two consoles, the N64 and Gamecube, have bombed.
    It all comes down to games and i dont see the Revolution changing anything. Sure the Metroid and Zelda games will rock but what else is there besides Super Luigi Dance Revolution garbage?

    The 360 has absolutely nothing worth my interest. It has the worst selection of games possible. Every good game could just about be had for the PC. PC has better graphics and better multiplayer aspects than a 360. The only thing the 360 has so far is its 'wow' factor since its the first to be released.

    The PS3 might not have the bext graphics, much like the Ps2 now, but it has what counts: the games.
    The Final Fantasys of course, probably a new Mana game, and hopefully new Chrono game. Dragon Quest 9. Devil May Cry 4. Castlevania. Silent Hill 5. Resident Evil 5.

    Not to mention i will still be able to play Chrono Cross, FF7, and Vagrant Story from my original Playstation. :mog:

    OK, well I definitely saw that by fans, the N64 was voted the best system ever, then SNES, then NES, then PS2, yes PS2 was 4th, and this was by the fans not some other stupid thing, this poll was on G4 so yeah.... Oh, and if I remember correctly, sales of the Xbox and the Gamecube were pretty much dead even in America, Gamecube winning out in Japan

    As for costing extra for the attachments, everytime Nintendo has ever had an attachment in the past, it has always been included in the first game that needed it... Rumble pak with Starfox 64, Expansion pak with DK64, Transfer Pak with Pokemon Stadium.... they don't screw people over, in fact I'd say they screw people over the least by offering the cheapest system, so what if you have to pay a little extra for a new controller type thing, probably around 20 bucks, but the system itself will be at least 50$ cheaper, probably even 100$ or more....

    I never got a rumble pak with Starfox 64. It was Brand new too. Right from Wal-Mart. I could get an N64 game for 60 dollars while PS and saturn games went for 30 or 40. As for N64 being the best system ever, IMO Dreamcast was. it had the coolest games along with PS. Plus, if game companies get wicked pissed off about emulating, why would nintendo incorpote it into their system. Split-screen games would probably be hard to play with a remote, and why should I pay for a gamecube shell when I already have a regular gamegube controller? Why dont they add backwards compatabilty. See what I mean. Nintendo screws you over so much. In the end, you do end up spending as much as a PS3 or 360. Plus, why do you want Mario KArt 5, Mario PArties 7-12, or Luigi Itallian Tap Dance PArty? Why dont they make Mafioso Mario? Older people buy nintendo too.

    The case even said that and when we went to return it they wouldn't take it back. Even though it was way back when, I always remember when I get jipped.

    Uhm I doubt the shell will be like a GC controller because you can actually plug gamecube controllers into the revolution, so if you have a GC that's another controller you already have for it, so yeah. IT DOES HAVE BACKWARDS COMPATABILITY.

    Pissed off about emulating the same way music companies are about downloading music, it's unregulated, I'm sure they don't mind people enjoying their games, but they'd like it regulated, plus it's all copyrighted so it is illegal unless Nintendo is giving it to you.

    SO wait, it can play GC games, and it can download NES, SNES, and N64 (I hear), wait, isn't that the most backward compatable it could possibly be?

    I guarantee I never spent as much on things for my GC as the PS2 would cost and the extra stuff for that system as well. Arguing Nintendo as a ripoff is the dumbest thing I've ever heard because they've always had the best values and offers and even the other companies know that because I remember hearing Sony say it's great for Nintendo because it's a big reason for their success
