With magazines starting the hype early about the PS3, Xbox 2 and GC2 it had me thinking who will win next time? Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo? Here are my views on the sucess of each current console.
I have had a Gamecube, Xbox and currently own a PS2, so i can honestly give an accurate review about this subject.
PS2: Sold literally millions upons millions of consoles. Big sucess helped because of hype and the amount of varied games to choose from.
Xbox: For the first console by Microsoft is was a great effort. This is the most powerful console and did sell very well.
Gamecube:
Now, i don't want to sound 'against' Nintendo, but this really was a lousy excuse for a console. The graphics power and processor are faster than the PS2, but the games do not use the power.
There maybe some 'Nintendo Zealots' who will defend their console to the end, but the fact is, it sold barely any units and alot of their games are childish. Some games that i had are really good, such as Super Mario: Sunshine and Eternal Darkness, but with some games developers choosing not to make any games for the console doesn't help. In the beginning stores were taking the GC off their shelves and this limited the sucess of the Gamecube. I don't mean to sound biased, but i do think its fair to say that the other two consoles have done much better.
So what do you people think? I wish each 'new console' ( PS3, Xbox 2 and GC2) good luck in terms of sales and can't wait for the next console war to unfold...

Yes the next wave of consoles shall be decided on the sales of the last ones. I see your logic, its just unexcusable.
I always love a good console war. Someone always ends up crying.
but usually president.
A big idiot is still an idiot.
Expand a little more and i think a GAD would be deserved

Xbox2 will rule I think.
Except it'll have runtime errors and such.
