When? I used to get really exctied. But theres nothing exciting games wise. Like when Ocarina Of Time was shown and Rare always had loads of awesome games on display.

Not too sure about its massive joypads though! The joypads aren't massive. Wait until you hold one. Best thing I've seen so far is the Heavenly Sword trailer, though I'll confess to some bias there. But it is fucking beautiful. Okami, then, or Super Mario World DS. There is absolutely nothing on the Xbox 360 that is of any interest to me or anyone I know. It's totally depressing. |

Have you held the new Ps3 joypads? Were you at E3?
I am in awe of you, if you have.
I agree about the X Box360, I have no interest at all, I was the same with X Box really.
The Revolution looks quite nifty, but again I wouldn't buy one. Ps3 all the way baby!

I was there for the pre-show conferences and Wed opening day. I didn't get to touch a PS3 controller, but the reason it looks big is because the console is quite small.
I don't see any appeal in the XBox 360 either. The PS3 isn't far behind and will have far more support. If I were to get one of the two it would have to be PS3. I'm not in any major rush to own a new console either, so the wait for PS3 and Revolution isn't unbearable.
Revolution is an interesting one. Everyone over here feels the same, Nintendo are either playing a very sneaky game by keeping all info secret, or they simply aren't prepared. From what Iwata and Miyamoto have said, you really do get the impression that 'they' know what they're doing, even if their US representatives don't.
I'm sure when they finally do unveil everything at their own show later this year it will be impressive... it can't really be anything but if they want to compete. The best news about the console so far is the backwards compatibility. You will be able to download nearly every game from all of Nintendo's home consoles - NES, SNES, N64 and Gamecube. Now that's a selling point.

While downloading old N64 games seems like a good idea. I can't see anyone enjoying the gaming experience. Most of the games I want to play from the N64 days will feel like they have the most horrendous frame rates compared to what we have now. It will be like playing Zelda Ocarina of Time on the Gamecube. It was so gah and rubbish.
