My personal view:
Xbox 360: for the new perfect dark, halo, .....too bad nothing original is making the flagship, but at least this way gives us an idea for the expectations of the new games. It's looks are alot more flash then the previous model, and I was going to buy one to run my old xbox games. But now reading that since the architechture is different to the old spec, and that 'backwards compatable' will be difficult and require downloading the emulator of only a few select games has turned me off.
PS3: Quite impressive power, if i buy this, it would be enough to get pleasure just by gawking at it and drooling over the graphics demos. Blu-ray feature looks pretty cool (50gb discs), which isn't included in xbox360/nintendo revolution, imagine having one disc to contain all 3 specail extended versions of lord of the rings, make swapping discs easier. However i haven't been as interested in the playstation style of games, but thats just me.....however, the new demand of the quality of ps3 games, will lead to more detail in the art department which could bring new game price to a new high in the $150-200 range.
Revolution: this one Im considering on buying. Why? Its the only one i can afford these days, but its main draw card for me is the ability to access the entire nintendo game range fom over the past 25years. Its small, cheap, and directly aimed at games. Blu-ray looks good, but theres no know fact that it will become the new movie standad, alot of hollywod movie companies (namely wb) are wraped up in the HD-DVD alternative, holds less then bluray, but cheaper to manufacture.....back to rev....theres still a secret nintendo are keeping quiet thats supose to 'revolutionise' the way games are played......and I've been waiting for at least some form of improvement on the games-interaction level, rather than simple hardware.
Well, that chewed up some time for me.......later
