"You forgot Betamax.

Hey Now... Mini Disc Failed, UMD Failing, Blu Ray yet to be seen. but im hoping that 3rd times a charm. giggity

"It's called being flexible and having choices. Isn't that better then forcing you buy everything at once?"

No, this flexibility you speak of is what I call scrambling to keep up the competition. And man your right it would suck to have everything all at once so that I don't have to pay double for it to be an external accessory later.

Lot of ppl keep complaining about the price tag of the Playstation 3 but if you own a 360 and want it to be wifi and have the HD DVD your looking at an xtra $300 right there. Hopefully you didn't buy a core system and end up having to buy a $99 20gb HDD.

But your probably right Next Gen Systems probably should have everything run on an external accessory that’s flexible

No way its a "tie" b/c this is the NEXT GEN. and the Wii can't even play a CD or DVD. If it wasn't for the Wii-mote would the Wii be anything more than a better looking GameCube? Come on ppl yes it looks fun but Xbox360 and PS3 are on target here. and if i was a betting man and I was to pick one system to represent Next Gen gaming for the next 6yrs it would have to be the PS3, b/c it is a serious gaming system. Oh and it won't have to have somthing to connected to every USB port to make work like the others *cough 360*
