    Out of this last generation of systems, I got the ps2 first then the Cube and last the xbox. Now with the new systems I might do it : Xbox, Rev and last the PS3.
    I continue to pick up the rare games for the ps2 but haven't played it in many many months. I am the most interested in the Rev, but it will be a long wait so I figure I will get the Xbox to hold me over until the Rev comes out. Just really ticked at the new price point M$ is trying to push.

    I'll have them all eventually, but maybe not a PS3 and/or Revolution at launch depending on how close they are to each other and how the budget looks at the time.

    I KNOW that i'll get the $400 Xbox 360! It has MANY games that interest me!

    I might buy a Revolution for Warioware - Gotta love wario - He - A - Numba - 1!

    I don't think i'll buy a PS3. It just does not have enough games that interest me, and it's sony's.

    If the Revolution is anything like the DS then it's well worth all the hype. I'm playing my DS more than the Gamecube, Xbox, PS2, Dreamcast and PSP combined.

    I am buying a Rev on launch day... it will be the first time I ever get a new system the day of it's release. I'll ignore the 360 but I may pick up a used xbox (current one) if the price is right ($50 or less). I just want to play a handful of xbox games... mostly Ninja Gaiden and the Sega exclusives. It will be quite a while before I go for the PS3. My target price is about $200 new or $150 used or less. Since it looks like it'll come out between 4-5 hundred that should take a year or two. Before any of the next-gen consoles I have to pick up a DS... yeah... it's been a rough year, tight money-wise.

    Well, my gameplan was to stick with my PSP for as long as possible and wait out all 3 consoles, then choose one and one only. But it's going to be kind of hard to resist picking up a 360 when nearly all OXM content will quickly become 360, and everywhere you go will be 360, 360, 360. Add to that the fact that they made Elderscrolls and Kameo launch titles, it's going to be harder for me to resist buying one.

    If the 360 gets Shenmue 3 then my willpower is shattered.

    I am planning on getting a PS3 and Revolution. I don't have any interest in an Xbox 360 (I never had any interest in the original Xbox), so I doubt I'll be getting one.

    So far the only thing that has my eye is the Revolution, but we'll see what games come out for the other two down the road, and how their prices drop.

    Probably just the Revolution. The PS3, and 360 don't interest me too much. They seem like more of the same, but with better graphics and audio.

    Nintendo Revolution - definitely

    PS3 or X360 - depends which has best sales or best variety in games

    I really don't know much about the Rev yet, but if the price is right, I'll probably get one

    PS3 can get me if it turns out to be true about Linux, etc. And the Blu-Ray player is good, I'm dying to see 1080p movies.

    After checking out x360, I doubt I will ever get one. Already had an Xbox and it didn't do anything for me.

    All 3 eventually. Thought I won the MD contest but I didn't...oh well will buy one when Halo 3 releases. Plan to get PS3 on launch, then Xbox 360 and then Revolution.

    The only systems I plan to buy in the foreseeable future are a GP2X and maybe Nintendo's next console.

    I've been contemplating building myself a monster of a gaming PC in the next year or two, though, just to satisfy the graphics whore in me.

    I know I'm going to get a PS3, but I may consider getting a Revolution depending on how it all turns out.

    Like most people I'll probably end up with all three consoles. I'll probably get an Xbox360 first. I like the idea of a Hard Drive and I prefer Microsoft's exclusives at this point. Bioware RPGs, Elder Scrolls Oblivion and probably many nice PC ports of games that my Laptop would explode if I tried to play them. I'm hoping that Alan Wake will come out on the 360, of alll the PS3 games I've seen, that's been the only one to really interest me.

    I've already got my 360 paid in full and I'm taking 2 days off to bask in its glory as soon as it hits.

    I'm very intrigued by the Revolution, and I'm almost certain I'll get it when it launches if only for the promise of new gameplay experiences the controller offers. I'm hoping the Revolution will offer the most innovative and creative new gameplay experiences yet.

    I'd like to say that I won't be touching the PS3 with a 10-meter cattle prod, but I said the same thing of the PS2, and I still got one, and have a ton of games for it. But as I see it right now, I have zero desire to purchase a PS3, seeing as very little in the way of actual gameplay footage has been shown and there's no software announced for it that remotely interests me. I'm not going to lie, I'm not a big fan of Sony at all, but it didn't keep me from buying a PS2. Nevertheless, I'm sticking with the 360 and the Rev for my next-gen needs.

    definately the revolution.. ps3 and 360 look like nothing new, they look to be following the path of computers, not game consoles.
