I`ve been thinking of getting a new console for a while now.

Nintendo , definetly not. I loathe nintendo stuff with a passion. I got a DS basically on listening to a friend who is a nintendo junkie who assured me it would be worth it. It was a crock of sh*t , nothing but those horrible cutesy kids games that pollute everything nintendo do.In the end I sold it to my sister & bought a psp.Nintendo are gonna have to do a hell of a lot to impress me for me to buy a wii. And then theres that stupid name too.

I`m tempted to get a Playstation 3 but what worries me is that they seem to be rushing to get it out.Sony are losing loads of exclusive contracts to xbox because it`s not out yet and while it`s not out Sony are losing money.I just get the feeling that it`ll be rushed out & there will be sh*tloads of problems with it.

As for the xbox 360 everybody who I know has bought one has had problems with it.To be honest I wasn`t all that impressed with the original xbox. There didn`t seem to me to be a very good selection of games.All the games seemed to be either sports sims , movie tie ins or role play.Hardly any originality at all.

What i`m going to do is wait & see what the Playstation 3 is like , if it`s any good i`ll get that.Sony consoles seem to have a good selection of games & I always found the playstation much more usable than I ever found my Xbox.
If it`s no good i`ll get a discounted 360 , they`re bound to drop the price when the ps3 comes out.
