    A game that is based around emergent player-dependent content. Basically, you get the full control over a planet and its evolution from the stage of the bacteria. No pre-produced assets are included, but rather, everything gets generated dynamically based on your decisions, so that you can create six-legged lizards and the game will create a fitting texture and animation set on the fly.

    Sony hit nail on the head with the backwards compatability. I have a drawer full of Playstation games still.

    On a side note... i need to get Bushido Blade back from my friend!!!!!

    Revolution > PS3 > Xbox360

    [/Fanboy]

    I never thought i'd ever put a sony console above a microsoft one, but the microsoft offering just looks awful. The PS3 just looks like a curvy PS2, which anyone could achieve by sticking some cardboard onto the side of a PS2, and writing PS3 on it.

    And to anyone saying that Revolution has no good games, you <b>will</b> regret it when the next Zelda comes round, I guarantee it.

    I think PS3 is going to be the largest console in the world, for the third time for Sony.
    I mean, Playstation 1 was so popular, Playstation 2 are even more populare. I dont see why Playstation 3 shouldnt be like PS1 or PS2.

    Go Go Japan!

    It's not exactly hard to believe that these are real-time. What were you expecting? Current gen graphics?

    Well, they already have working ingame videos, so I think it will work. For some reason, EA doesn't want to show the game to the public (Will Wright made a presentation at the Game Developer's Conference and he was supposed to repeat it the next day, but he apparently revealed too much so they left him locked at home).

    Spore:

    That is one hideous looking console, and the gamepad is quite obviously a double ended sex toy. It even vibrates.

    But really, too many people are commenting on how the console looks, i know for a fact that when i pick up the next wave of consoles (Since i most likely will be getting all three), they're all going to be sat on a shelf under my tv and that's it. It's a game's console, not a mantlepiece or coffee table ornament.

    But with my past experiences with Sony's Playstation brand, i'm pretty sure, again, this is going to be my least favourite of the three. The Revolution i can count on for having fun and innovative games, fairly decent power, and all around a pretty good buy. Hell, Nintendo haven't disappointed me ever, barring the N64.

    The Xbox 360 seems to have taken a leaf from Xbox modders the world over. One of the single most useful things your Xbox can do is become a media centre using XBMC, but the sounds of things, a full media centre will come as standard with the Xbox, and not just that, a proverbial lot of processing power so you can guarentee that the games will at least look as good as PS3's games, or better. Hell, the original Xbox still has some pretty decent looking games being released (Jade Empire?), just as the GC still is (RE4?), but can you say that about the PS2? No, you can't. Take a look back to GTA: San Andreas, there we see the massive flaws with the PS2 and everything holding it back. That game was solely ruined by the lack of the PS2's capability, and the godforsaken exclusive deal with Sony so we wouldn't see it on a console that COULD handle it.

    The PS2 is dead to me. It's a tired old console with poor other functions other than being a console, low quality hardware (Who else here has a screwed DVD drive on an <i>unmodded</i> PS2? How about a PSP with dead pixels or a faulty square button?) and lacks any kind of power to run the games they're releasing at satisfactory framerates (Once again, GTA:SA). And this was the same with the PSX, it very quickly started to look very dated whilst the competetors kept churning out better and better games and graphics. Given their previous track record, i don't have all too much faith in the PS3 deviating from their past, i can see it becoming dated well before it's time, having an extensive range of games, to which only the minority will be outstanding games, and i can fully well see the hardware inside being of a low quality and becoming faulty in not too much time.

    When the PS2 was released, we all thought the graphics were awesome, just with any other console, but can you honestly say that, with games that can be directly compared to each other, such as the Tony Hawk or Need For Speed Underground series, that the PS2 can still "hack it" graphics-wise?

    I say all this with nothing but hindsight, given that i own and have owned pretty much every major console released and do currently own a GC, PS2 and Xbox, i'm not trying to be biased or a console fanboy, but too many people are sitting, mouth gaping, at the screenshots drooling, and seem to forget that should they buy one of these consoles, that's a fair amount of cash you'll be laying down, and you'll want the best deal and the best console, not just the one with the most flashing lights and beeping noises.

    What i was pointing out, you look past the character models, which are pretty decent, and the maps have about the same image resolution and polycount as a Quake 1 map.

    And Pulse, to be honest, RE4 still looks a hell of a lot better than MGS3 does (Yes i've played both, thanks), but i still think RE0 or REmake look better than RE4, i just wanted a reference of a recent game.
