It's good that MS will let anybody play on Live.

Both, I just wish the PS3 wasnt going to be so damn expensive. So it will be a while before I pick one up. But I have my 360 preordered, well the second shipment :icon33:

Yeah, at the Xbox scene people were saying they were too late and got in on the second shipment. I thought yeah yeah, not me. But went to preorder after waiting too long and sure enough. Im on the second shipment also. Guess I shoulda got off my ass. :P

Dont know. But the guy at Gamestop did say that the second shipment was planned about a week and a half or so after the launch. I sure hope hes right. Another month would suck.

Both. My gaming PC was upgraded recently (right before the SLI boom unfortunately, but still fast enough - XP 3500+, corsair xms xtreme ram, the BFG 6800 GT OC'd card - which I love)...so I'll have the cash to drop on both as opposed to spending it on another PC upgrade. I figure I've had all the systems available since the early days of the ataris, commodore 64 computers, etc...why stop now?

I plan on getting both. I'll probably have to wait for the PS3 though because of the alleged price.

I may be getting an xbox 360 around springtime/summer. No way I'd buy one at launch.

I'll be buying each of them when they come out.

ANd strangley, my OHGAH! attitude has shifted to the revolution. They reckon it wont be as slow as they first said, given the OTHER consoles now, and obviously its a just a massive LEGAL emulator. Thats gonna rawk :icon14:
