I mean you can only drool on the specs for so long. But after that it's all about the games. Based on that, I'll prob get a PS3 and then a Revolution some time afterwards. __________________ VDX (collecting dust somewhere) -> N760C (R.I.P. June 2004) -> TH55 This is not a signature.

That's a good call. I hadn't really thought about that.

I mean, who can admit that they bought an Xbox just to play Halo or Halo 2? __________________ home of the ClearTouch screen protector, FlexiSkin skin case, and the ElectraSpan Extended Battery,.

But I have played Halo quite a bit on the beast, and did buy it for my PC. Descent FPS, way too easy with a mouse and keyboard though. <]=) __________________ I be a hearty pirate that plunders many waffles.

Check it out, yo. http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000587053095/ This seems to further that idea http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000577053229/ If they ARE going to lisence, chances are slim they'll be able to hit that Spring '06 date. What does this hold for Revolution? We don't even have a clue about the unit yet! __________________ Geddy Lee's number one fan!

Then I could pick one up for a inexpensive encoding solution. Hype leads to BS. Nintendo is good at avoiding this and turning out a fun and profitable console. Here's a rumor about the Revolution's specs; (If these are true, then it will have some kick for its size. ) http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000100046549/ <]=) __________________ I be a hearty pirate that plunders many waffles.

Ezikial Anta Mustangs and Supras Join Date: May 2003 Location: Connecticut Posts: 1,056	Yeah. It IS a long delay, but Sony could do it. Sales from the slim PS2 dropping to $99 dollars could forward development on the PS3 and blow MS away once the PS3 finishes. __________________ Geddy Lee's number one fan!
