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. Yes, that is what I am saying. The free online play is a selling point, and quite a good one at that.

Companies usually lose money from selling a console, the games is where they make most of their money.

I've never owned any gaming console (PlaySation, Nintendo, etc.), so I really don't care either way '

Let me just say some stats before I proceed with my opinion...
Benchmarks CPU --- Revolution = 729MHz Original Xbox = 733MHz Xbox 360 = 3 core 3.2Ghz
GPU --- Revolution = 243MHz (no new shader technology meaning.. no Shader Model 3.0.. meaning no Unreal 3 engine) Original Xbox = 233MHz
Total System RAM ---------------- Revolution = 88mb Xbox 360 = 512mb PS3 = 512mb
But then again, the Revolution isn't going to power, its going for game play.
If anyone reads any tech news, the PS3 is in DEEP trouble. They will NOT be showing a public demo at E3, they are redesigning the controller, they have announced that their on line ("PS3 live") is a mess and they are going to try and rebuild that, they are have some issues with blu-ray and the Cell working with one-another, and they are being sued left and right for their PS2 controllers. They have already delayed it several times and with the way its going, the Revolution will be released way before PS3 does. Everyone is says forget waiting, buy a 360 or a Rev. Don't bother to wait for the PS3.
The 360 has already been release and had its bad points. With Microsoft chocking stores by only releasing so many, its been a drag for customers, but increasing the hype. Ill agree the 3% failure is bad, but its actually really good. PS2 had a 7% of failed consoles when it was released.
Now to answer your question, which one has the most potential? Well, right now I would have to say the 360. With it already being release, getting games on the shelf and money starting to flow, its doing well. I would have to say Rev. would be next because with its back-wards compatibility then PS3 because of its, so far, not so bright future.

Yeah, Microsoft has a very hardcore line-up in store, but the only games that I anticipate on is Gears of War and 99 Nights, I guess we will have to see.

Play station 3, I'm not much of a fan for nintendo since many of their games are meant for children. Xbox is alright but I don't like the 360 that much.
