"Nintendo vs XBOX vs Playstation"

As most hardcore gamers know there are 3 main consoles that are owned throughout the world. These are Playstation, XBOX and the loveable Gamecube but which 1 do you personally think is the best 1 around?

I've actually lost all my interest in Nintendo at the minute because of the lack of games.

I was as Ninty as anyone, owning a NES, SNES, GB, GC, GBA and GC but because of the lack of games coming out for it recently it's lost its ways a bit. Role on next year is all I can say.

E3 for Nintendo was superb... would have been better if they had shown the world the original design for the DS there.

Reggie rules, NGC thinks Nintendo should give away 2 controllers a memory card and a Reggie figurine when they launch Revolution. How I laughed.

Well I really think (but usually most of what I think most people disagree with) that nintendo had the best E3 showing, and that all the critics from magazines that are nuetral (yeah right) thought that the more popular consoles had better E3's even though most of the stuff up there was to be expected anyway, wheras realistic Zelda was thought to have been cel shaded zelda 2, now that had a massive crowd going ooooooooooh! and ahhhhhhh! and some laughs from the Regginator.

First few car classes are slow, to simulate the slower speeds of the slower car classes.

The game does get much faster further on...nothing like Burnout speeds though.

If it weren't for Live...I probably wouldn't have the Xbox now. There are a few games I love playing offline, but the thought of just having them and the other games offline makes me go "meh" at Xbox.

I've played PGR2 and found it dissapointing.. very slow despite prettiness. Haven't played the other two games so can't pass judgement, but seriously, two games? *Two* killer aps apart from Halo? That isn't worth getting a system for.

No, the clips just made me think, "meh" and I just got bored. I then went back to concocting new ideas in my head for the new Zelda game.

I'm still getting Halo 2 - no question about that. I just wasn't impressed by Microsoft's E3.

How so? Did they reveal too much information that could have been provided upon release?

I've had the Xbox for a number of years now and it's only through reading this topic I've heard of that Forza whateveritscalled game.

Mind you, I think E3 had the opposite effect on me than it did other Xbox fans. It put me off Halo 2 a little (unlike the year it was first shown)

Until KOTOR and Rainbow Six 3 (for Live anyway, offline it's crap) and PGR2, there was nowt on Xbox except Halo. In my view anyway.

No you haven't missed anything, my friend had bought an xbox on release, and after about a month stopped playing it because there was nothing decent that he could buy, although i don't think project gotham racing intrigued him for about a month, so maybe even less.
