    I think Nintendo are going about the Revolution in the right way. Their controller could be the biggest selling feature out of all 3 next gen consoles, finally someone is actually thinking about the human interface rather than how much power it has under the bonnet.

    i'll be curious about this one

    i'm sure i'll get flamed for this, but i'm so totally unexcited by 360 et al. you look at one in use, and it's "woo, slightly improved graphics". even the gamecube/ps2/xbox didn't offer much over the previous gen (bar maybe xbox live)

    perhaps i'm just getting bored.

    So far out of all of the titles for xbox 360 that I have played, the most impressive thing is the graphics or the dashboard (I've probably spent more time on that)

    There is no ground breaking game that revolutionises the way games are played.
    I have to admit I was perhaps expecting just one game to totally blow me away.

    I think the best is yet to come. - i hope so.

    hehe...

    The thing is, until someone comes up with an immersive, full sensory input system, designed by an all-male Russian ballet troupe... nothing is going to do anything other than 'faster and prettier'.

    If it is truely that cheap, ill get one, no doubt at all about that..

    But about the whole graphics thing. I still sit here and play Civ 2 sometimes, I used to play Web page games for more than 5 hours a day.. But i cant stand to play most Xbox and PS2 games, they just bore me... The only 2 games I played on my PS2 for a prolonged period of time were GT 3 and SSX Tricky, and of thoes SSX Tricky was played much much more, and its not even that good looking, it was just FUN to play, I just couldnt stop playing it..

    What Im getting at is that PS3 and Xbox 360 are going to look bloody amazing, I have no doubt about that, but will they actually be fun to play?
