Next Generation Consoles

I am surprised a poll about this hasn't been made sooner.
Seen as there is quite a bit of information about the next three major consoles I thought, what about a poll?

The question for the poll is which of the consoles will you be getting?

Rogue, you probably should have made this a multiple choice poll with only three votes (or possibly a "None" choice). Would have been easier.

Bajoran Rogue · #3 July 19, 2005, 4:43 AM

It would have, but I did it the way it is because someone might accidently vote for a console and none as well, sort of messing up the poll.

lol Yeah that´s a good point Rogue. Anyway I dont really see the appeal of game consoles anymore, so im voting for none.

Yes, I'm a PC man, unless I run into a crapload of money.

Chris Britton · #6 July 20, 2005, 1:09 PM

I would most likely get the PS3 and the new Xbox if possible. But i like PC games myself.

I don't like PC games so much, it is complicated with all those system requirements. At least with consoles if it is for your console then you know that you will be able to play the game.
A few reasons why I am getting the Revolution: the as yet unseen controler which is supposed to be completly different from previous controlers; first part online games won't cost to be played online; lots of downloadable games from the NES, SNES and N64 with a minimal fee for that.

You have a point rouge, PC's can be fussy about games, so PS3 and Xbobx are at the top of my list.

You did the Rogue/Rouge thing again.

Well, I just make sure I stay up to date! In fact, I'm getting a new high-end video card very soon. The Nvidia GeForce 6600. *drool*

At least you can get componentas, my Mum and Dad don't let me get better stuff for my computer. They fear i will break it.

That sucks. Why don't you just get them to put it in? If they're not technically minded enough, they shouldn't tell you you can't!

Chris Britton · #12 August 5, 2005, 9:26 PM

I know, I am annoyed about it, i can;t wait for my own place where i can tinker as much as i want, then Mozilla will be mine! Sometimes my parents can really get in the way.

Danny Stewart · #13 August 5, 2005, 9:37 PM

Would you like me to type you up a document on the advantages of Firefox that may convince your parents to let you switch? I'm doing one for Ross, I could send you a copy too.

Chris Britton · #14 August 6, 2005, 6:45 AM

Yeah, go ahead. It would be cool.

Danny Stewart · #15 August 6, 2005, 11:11 AM

I'll send it to you once done.

Chris Britton · #16 August 8, 2005, 1:40 PM

Cheers mate.

Danny Stewart · #17 August 12, 2005, 5:35 PM

Still not done obviously. I don't know when I'll have a chance up here in New York.

Chris Britton · #18 August 13, 2005, 3:00 PM

Just take your time Danny, i am not too worried about times.

Danny Stewart · #19 August 14, 2005, 5:35 PM

I'm back now so I'll get started soon.
