Take a break, dude. :lol
Err, anyway, PS3 for me. I couldn't care less about X360.
The final word. Playstation 3, or Xbox360?

xbox 360 at launch, ps 3 after price drops for me
sorry but outside a few games, the sequels to the same old games from way back psone are getting tiring (tekken 6, gt 5 mgs 4, dmc 4etc. etc.). I'm far more interested in Heavenly Sword and Insomniac's fps than "japanese ps2 game" XXXVI

More powerful the 6800U in SLI? Sounds good on paper. If those pics are realtime, then I'm buying both. You'd be stupid (which most fanboys are) not to get both. Yet, I really don't trust Sony. I thought PS2 would be the shizznit yet, it's the weakest in terms of power this gen. I think this gen will have nothing to do with power. It's all up to the developers to create fantastic games. So to conclude, I'm getting ALL systems

Both... why limit yourself to one? Unless you don't play too many games.
360 in 6 months, and PS3 in a year or so. Sounds good.

But JSRF came with Xboxes, so those might not count as sales and it might not be a "top-selling game"! :lol

I like my sequels AND original titles. PS3 will have an abundance of both
Xbox 360 is a fantastic machine.
But MS have practically done Sony's work for them with a shit showing. Rare suck.
Sad.
Having said that, I'll wait for more concrete screenshots / images before making firm decisions. Sony's online commitment pales next to Xbox Live.
We'll see...

Oh, so the 'story arc' makes it acceptable..uh huh. PD0 is still a sequel. And there's been at least 4 Ninja Gaiden games before the Xbox one.

Lol, I was only referring to the arcade one and 1-3 on NES. :lol

It's still the same name being carried over. :rolleyes yourself.
The real difference that strikes me between PS3 and Xbox360 is not the quality of the rendering. I'm sure both can come up with similar imagery in pics. It's the animation that sets them apart in my eyes. I saw the Killzone 3 video and, ok, I'll wait for proof for that to be ingame because it's just unreal. But Heavenly Sword (which DeanoC on Beyond3d assured was ingame) is almost as impressive. People look 'alive' the way they move. And then there's Warhawk, the Insomniac game and so on. When I look at Quake 4, Gears Of wars (to name the most impressive, better forget about stuff like Full Auto) I just see awkward animation. Don't know, I'll gett every console anyway, but if this is any indication of what to be expected, PS3 is really going to be the true-next gen system in my eyes (of course, as far as graphics are concerned).

Looking at the amount of FMV's *this* gen, yeah that'd be true.

Please, explain - how do you play an FMV? I am curious :lol
At this point, all Sony has to offer is fluff movie hype bullshit. I want to see REAL games running on REAL hardware. I won't get fooled again. I bought into the PS2 hype and I regret that. I won't fall for it again. I will be getting an Xbox 360 and if Sony can prove to me after launch of their system, I will pick it up most likely too.
But I am certainly not falling for Tech Demo nonsense. I sincerely doubt they even have finalized software so I would bet the FF movie is just that - a movie.

I'll be getting all three major systems, but not hastily as in previous ventures. Sony's controller is going to take time to get accustomed to and Nintendo's turtle-pace will allow me to get that system last. The 360's appearance of being the "next progressive step, involving gaming", will be my first purchase.
For the record. PS3 controller is super-wack. Are the controllers backward compatible? I do hope so.
Street Fighter Alpha 3 on PSP! Yay!
My only fear is due to the big-budgets that are required to make games for these titans of systems - the independent true-schooler of a development team will not be able to step into the arena. Basically, lack of originality will be my fear and big-budget movie blockbusters will be synonymous with gaming as well. Please ease my worries. Thank you.

I've really only started digging through the stuff from last night (stupid timezone differences)
I'm getting both. But I'm more impressed by PS3 at the moment. It seems convincingly more complete, and more powerful (and i'm looking at the spec here, and only keeping a wary eye on the demos). I'm surprised by how much Sony has shown...the number of games is surprising.

Just responding to your initial comment.
When there's so many FMV's in games, that's what I was referring to.

That's fine.
I just think FMVs suck in general. RE4 did it right. No FMVs. All in game engine cut scenes. That is the future. I don't want to see another FMV ever again. Psychonauts is a cool game, but dammit - it still uses FMVs. I hate that.
IMO
Next gen = DEATH OF FMVs.

I went to WAGs boutique and all I got was a sniff
So far, the only reason I have any remote interest in X360 is because of Gears of War and I know that Halo 3 and Ninga Gaiden 2 will eventually be released on the console, so its just not worth spending so much money on something I wont use too much. As for PS3, the games they have announced at their conference was enough to make me want to buy one and Nintendo's first party games are too good to miss out on.phie said:

Something we agree on, whoa. After the first viewing, an FMV is useless, IMO.
Dr_Cogent said:
Except the real-time cutscenes taking over in some games is still pretty much the same thing, IMO. Non-controllable scenes or whatever.
Red Scarlet said:
No, most of the time it isn't. Most times you can tell its an FMV because the resolution isn't as high or the video appears more "pixelated"
I don't mind cut scenes per say. I just want all of them to be in engine. What really blows is when the FMV looks better than what the game can put out. It just doesn't appear seamless.
There is nothing wrong with cut scenes, just FMV.

Oh, I just throw cut-scenes in the same pile as FMV's. I'm weird like that I guess.
I think the NINTENDO PARTY will have something to say after this morning!
But between PS3 and XBox360, it's pretty obvious PS3 is the most attractive choice at the moment. The big question mark for me is whether Sony can deliver a unified online solution like XBL. If not, then Microsoft doesn't have much to worry about because Microsoft will fill that niche just perfectly fine.
I'll still get both at launch, though. I don't think I could be without 99-Nights, Lost Odyssey and Gears of War for long.

"Wait and see" approach for me. When all 3 consoles are out I'll make a decision.
As it stands now, PS3 looks like the best option, but...I dislike the look of the console itself, and the controller, and the lack of a hard drive and decent online service. 360 has all of that in the bag, it just (so far) does not have the games, graphics or support to back it up like the PS3 does. But whatever, I'll go where the games are, be it PS3 or 360.
