All of them. The industry desperately needs to end this difficult year on a high.

I'd answer this question the same way I do the constant "Which system is better?" questions I get where I work: I like all three and they each do different things well. It's kind of cool to see Nintendo doing a lot better on the Gamecube, but at the same time I really like the Xbox and like to see it do well (and their holiday bundle, while not spectacular, is helping them to push units). Playstation 2's numbers might seem weak, but you have to remember that about 75% or better of those who want one already have them. I think that's why you're seeing such strong numbers from Nintendo and Microsoft, because some ps2 owners are picking up a second console, either based on boredom or quality exclusives (KOTOR, Mario Kart: DD, etc.). I hope they all do well this holiday season, and I hope to see many more great games next year.
