Are you planning on going single console only next-gen?

John Harker said:
Rev/PS3.

As a gamer, what more can you ask for?

You get the fullest experience of "next gen," you get a huge tasting of "retro gen" in the Virtual Console, and you get "generation innovation" from the Rev controller.

That's EVERYTHING you need right there, really.

BRIDGE THE GAP from the PAST to the FUTURE


Playable games on both consoles you are pimping?

This post is funny. You've already determined Rev/PS3 is the ULTIMATE COMBO, when neither system has shown a playable game yet!

Sure, in theory.
Why not?

Based on what you said, how can anyone determine what they want to buy then, besides a 360, since nothing is out? Based on spoken word, and on paper, that sounds like the ultimate combo to me - in theory.

This entire thread is basically speculation untill all three systems have been played by the individual, so my post is sound enough.
 
I'll probably end up switching from PC only and going Rev only and pick up a PS3 depending on how fast it's price can drop. Shoot, at this point I'm so intent on mixing things up, I might go Rev/Dreamcast. :lol

hmm..and yet you could make this assertion?

I should stay single console, because I could game on 360 alone the next 5 years.

Interesting double standards my friend.
 
I already got the 360 and I'll get Rev at launch too. I'll get the PS3 a year or two down the line when it is more affordable and the game prices are down, the 360 and Rev will suck enough money out of my pocket until then
 
I'm thinking of *gasp* dropping Nintendo... currently I support 3 consoles, 2 handhelds and PC. Money isn't a factor, but time is - even if I cut back to the games I want most, I would never have enough time to play everything I want from all these platforms...so my current plan is to go PS3, PSP, X360 and PC only, until my son is old enough to game (another 4-5 years probably), and then I'll get him a Revolution2 or whatever...

Based on past support of the PS line, I think it's safe to say PS3 will get quite a bit of support (Sony's studios + 2nd party + 3rd party exclusives + multiplatform) and Rev is Nintendo, so their first party games are essentially the reason for a purchase (and virtual console). For me (and a lot of people I know), X360 is the wild card... it is the console that needs to prove itself, because based on previous generation it, frankly, didn't do it for me.

I dunno, it seems pretty likely that for many gamers PS3 + Rev will offer the best combination, barring any wild changes in dev support from previous generations (which don't look very likely from what we've seen so far).

Differing opinions, and I can fully understand his.

you cool man, just don't want to see you get dragged into the dark seedy underworld of GAF hateradin'!
 
Probably will be the same as this gen. Eventually get a PS3, may get a Rev if something decent comes out, won't even look at the 360.

"Microsoft announced today that Dragon Quest IX will be exclusive to the 360."

<Red Scarlet> So my choice is 360, and Rev. Won't even look at PS3.
 
its not about time, and I'd argue only slightly about money.

Why not buy all the consoles and be more selective about the games you play? Its the games in the long run that'll cost you the most

Why'd you even pick him? There are alot of people in this thread that are going with the PS3/Rev combo. There was even a thread made about that combo where most people said it was the combo they were going with.
 
I am gonna have a revolution till the ps3 is 200 bucks or less or if tekken 6 is a complete turn around from the previous ones ... or if street fighter 4 arrives.

Yea..... truth.

At least I backed it up with some reasoning in that and my subsequent post.
 
It would just be ridiculous to go single console. Now that I've graduated college, and have a good job, I have much better buying power. As a result, it's going to be that much harder for me to stick to one console. There's too much awesome stuff coming out on all the different consoles.

I just found the entire wording of his statements funny. I didn't even say his comments were bad, though.

Funny does not equal bad. But you should wait until E3 to make those kind of statements. ;)

Ok I'm going back to dreaming about Crackdown now! Amirox approved number one most anticipated game!

Stop sullying my pristine taste by saying I approve of that atrocious looking game.

Haha, well I was going for funny anyway.

So I'll see you at E3 and we'll have a go at some Mario Revolution Tennis or some crap and maybe I'll revise my statement, heh

rev = must buy
PS3 = must buy
PC = keep on buying
PSP = bought
DS(lite) = must buy
x360 = dunno...

revo = must buy
ps3 = must buy after a year or 4 if you don't want to empty your fucking wallet
pc = abandon this shit, buy a laptop for work and install FreeBSD or Linux
psp = crap, buy an mp3 player
dslite = must buy if you don't own a DS yet
x360 = crap, wait for ps3 after x years

nah, there's no way.

that's my whole post. pretty cool

Well, unless you import you're going to have to wait until after E3 anyway. But I think with both you know what you're getting. With the PS3 you're getting amazing first/second party support and top notch 3rd party support. With the Rev you're getting amazing first/second party support and some good 3rd party support.
 
If you have the income to purchase all 3 systems and don't, you're an idiot. Plain and simple. All 3 will have lots of exclusive games and features that will make each worth owning.

yep thats what I said

ps3 = must buy after a year or 4 if you don't want to empty your fucking wallet

my wallet will be fine thanks for your concern

pc = abandon this shit, buy a laptop for work and install FreeBSD or Linux

:lol some of us have to work in the real world

psp = crap, buy an mp3 player

uh..? already have 2 ipods

dslite = must buy if you don't own a DS yet

of course!

x360 = crap, wait for ps3 after x years

but I want next gen now! FN + motoGP + stock on shelves = hard to resist. My only problem is that I want to get a new TV 1st :D

Some people don't play games 24/7.

I owned all 3 consoles this gen and hardly played XBox and GCN so they really weren't worth owning for my gaming tastes.

I will own all 3 next gen but the X360 only because of work related reasons otherwise it would just be Rev and PS3.
 
yea PS3 only. I am thinking that revolution is going to be a gimmick like DS... I have a DS since Nov 21, 2004 I havn't used it, its going on ebay tomorrow night!

But if revolution does somthing impressive then I might get it. Door is totally closed on 360 though untill very and I mean VERY stable revised hardware is out.
