So here is what we know....

- The most powerful of all the Next next gen ones, will be the Ps3, based purely on stats, but of course stats alone aren't what maketh the machine - that said the Tech demos tread on ANYTHING Xbox360 has shown me.. or perhaps I'm just dissapointed that they've not shown DOA XBV 2 yet

- Controller ports are HISTORY. All Wireless. Our kids will never have the joy of yanking out an opponents controller without them looking during a heated multiplayer game... not that I've done that...obviously

- The Revolution will have the most games at launch, follwed by the Ps3, thanks to Backwards compatibility. That said. Vib Ribbon >> Mario Brothers for me. Plus it uses Flash memory and SD cards.. could be costly.

- Xbox kicks arse with online gaming, closely followed by the Revolution, however it'll be interesting to see what Sony have cooked up here.

- The removable HD drive from the Ps3 to have an Ipod thingy seems cool, as long as the storage is big enough.

Basicaly, based on what I've seen so far, I'm leaning towards the Ps3 first and foremost, and then mabye the Revolution (depends how much games cost really, the downloadable ones, and if they bring out a Sonic Mega-Mega-Super-Dooper collection, and DC Emulation Imagine it, Shenmue..... How sweet would THAT be?
Xbox360 hasn't impressed me, mind you, I'm not that big a fan of online gaming. Bring back Richard Jaques to do the music for PG3 and I may reconsider (I'm kidding!)

(EDIT: D'OH! I missed the thread above. Please close this. Thanks!)
