That's what they said about the touch screen on the DS.

PS3 gets my vote... I dont have a particularly fond look on the x-box... never been much on there that was much good in my opinion (with the exception of a few gems) likewise with the last few nintendo consoles... gamecube had bout 5 games worth playing on it. Ya, like I can't stand the original Xbox controller... too bulky.

I don't see what the big deal about the revolution is. The only thing some people could consider revilutionary is the controller, and it's a stick you wave around. I don't get why people would want to download old games either, why buy a next-gen console to play old games, it doesn't make sense. Some people don't have the old systems (which are hard to come by nowadays), so to be able to play all Nintendo games on the Revolution is a fanboy's dream come true. PS3 will be backwards compatible with the other PS's games and I assume the XBox360 will have a similar feature with its older games as well, so Nintendo has to do it too to stay in the market. Besides, Nintendo has an entire back-catalogue of great games to choose from and I would jump at the nearest oppurtunity to play them. And for goodness sake, stop whining about the controller until you actually held and used it a coupe of times!. You can't tell if it will suck by just looking at it, only first-hand experience wil teach you whether your judgment is true or flawed. So wait till the console gets released, play a while with the controller (preferably with more than one game), THEN come back and say what you think of it, coz ONLY then will you be able to pass judgment on it, NOT sooner.

I get the whole backwords compatible thing, but the Revolution is pretty much basing their whole system on that idea, which I think is a mistake. And I don't have to see it to get a basic idea of what it will feel like, I can hold my remote control and get a basic understanding.

Well, redesigning it might be a good idea, but I need to know more about the PS3 until I call it a "must buy" Suspected price is $700. It also has a crap load of features, 60 gig hard drive. Sony also says it will have a bunch of other crap, DVR capabilities, Blu-ray, downloadble games, online capabilities to rival XBL(for free), be able to browse the internet, up to 14(maybe even more) people being able to play at one. Yes, that's right, Sony said 14+. Plus a bunch of other crap. Edit: The extra 0 was a typo. But Sony Ken Kutaragi over at Sony said "…the PS3 can't be offered at a price that's targeted towards households." The Supected Price Is Actually 500$

If the revolution does in fact revolutionize everything it's suppose to then it get the vote of having the most potential. If not, than PS3. Xbox 360 will just remain in between.

The revolution is not out yet, and I don't believe that they have set a price. Besides, the money they make from the consoles is plenty to run some powerful servers for a long time.

They're not going to make money from people playing their games online. Duh, that's it. They're going to make it from more people buying the system and it's games and even the old school games from the Virtual Console.
