hehe i came here to post 'em but you beat me :)
nintendo is also planning a new console
Yeah nintendo's revolution is coming soon also as rolf said but imo nothing dominates PC gaming :)
i second that
btw nintendo have said that they will allow people to download all their previous games from the beginning of nintendo.
Lol ... poor nintendo ! Their Lamecube was practically the biggest loser in the current-gen console wars. They even dropped the cube's price to 80$ or something, still people wouldnt buy it.
As for PS3 High profile games, there's also a game called "Warhawk", which features massive air battles ( with fleets surpassing 2000 units on-screen ), and a non-confirmed FPS Squad play. Also, The next Ninja Gaiden may be released on the PS3.
Anyway, whatever the hardware will be, i already made my choice of getting the PS3. It's not the console that makes the games, it's the games that make the consoles. Technically, PS2 was the weakest console in comparison to the Xbox and the Lamecube, but PS2 had such masterpieces as "Gran Turismo 4", "Metal Gear Solid 2/3", "Final Fantasy X", "Xenosaga 1/2", "Devil May Cry 1/3" ... etc. which made it win the console war.
