Saw it on display at best buy. Didn't care enough to even bend my head to look at the screen.

Looks pretty sexy. But then again, who in his right mind would buy one now for $399 for the hard drive package when you can just wait till mid-2006, when more good games are going to be out and the thing will prolly cost $299 or even $249.99 if Sony hurries the hell up with the PS3. Too much money on some people's hands is why me thinks.

I honestly don't give a damn about this console. I'll probably skip this entire generation all together. If anything, I'm really hoping the Revolution will live up to its name.

Microsoft and Sony are all about the power of their consoles and integrating everything under the sun into it. Console gaming really needs a revolution. I've totally lost interest. In fact, I put both my XBox and PS2 up on Ebay today with all my games.

The Revolution should be pretty cool, but the lack of hi-def output is embarassing.

What is it with everyone releasing stuff that has everyone saying "This should be awesome, but it has a huge gaping flaw.". Why can't they just make shit correctly the first time around ?

I've been playing on one for the past 3 weeks :olo:

Fucking hell people...

All I can say is that ATM, the games are shit, but the consoel shows promise. Its a shame all the games are not REALLY doing anything amazing. CoD2 looks like an ugly port, slows down a lot and has quite a bit of ugglyness going on (no AA? WTF?), PDZ really really really is a HUGE let down, its like those games you play that have a short First Person bit tacked onto the game, but the controls are not made for it, like those first person bits in GTA... It just sticks all over the place. Really awful AI as well, its like playing Q2 all over again. Ugly but attractive, depending on which part of the screen you look at. Kameo is great, a really, really attractive, great playing game, but again, in places its just like... WHY? Its obvious its a port in a few places, but for a launch game, ill give it some slack. NBA06 is just awful... Same old awful controls, not the players shine too! Wee!! And King Kong is a mixed bag. Ported from a lower end console and with paralax mapping, making it look a lot like the first level from Splinter Cell:CT on the PC on HIGH. Quite slow, buggy as fuck (Blue and red guns and monsters?!), and really not made for first person on the man bits. Oh, and NFS:Most Wanted has the vote for the WORST in the series. Its the same NFS people have been playing for the last 10 years, only now twice as shiney, twice as slow in the frame rate, and with twice as many particles on screen. Woo?

All in all, it "seems" to "me" like 9/10 of the games coming out for the box at launch are rushed FOR LAUNCH.

However, you would have to be a retard to judge a new console by its launch titles. They ALWAYS SUCK.

Bring on the good, quality, "we know what we are doing" titles please.

Oh, and whoever made that grey bit on the pad plastic instead of rubber needs to be shot... Thats just stupid.

Im pretty sure i couldn't give a shit what anybody thinks as well.

But if your willing to start a discussion on a game internet forum about a gaming machine and whats thought about it, expect to see people reply true to subject.

P.S. you stupid cunt.
