i love connect 360, i run all my mp3's through it everyday. I dare say i'm using the 360 more for listening to my 15,000 plus record collection than I am for gaming.

step in the right direction. i'd by the 60GB if it was the same price as my lovely 360 premium. but, still fine with Wiisixty until PS3 has at least 5 good RPG's and maybe God of War 3.

I for one cannot fracking wait for Too Human. I trust Silicon Knights and know they're working on GOLD.

For every console generation I have purchased every big console, happily owning all two or three major companies machines for their unique reasons. I'm a happy Wii and 360 owner. I'm a happy PS2 owner. But I didn't buy a PS2 until 2 years ago, while I bought GC and Xbox One on release date. I knew when PS2 was announced that I would eventually want to buy it, but not for a few years. When I picked one up in 2005 I had access to and instant RPG nirvana due to the catalog out by that time, and all the games I'd wanted to play were usually no more than 20 bucks at that point. That's what PS2 was for me; RPG's unlike other consoles, and some unique games like Ico, Katamari, Okami.

That's the same thing PS3 will be to me when I buy one in 2009-2011 or so. The catalog will be great, the best early games will be cheap. The exclusives too. That being said, Playstation Home is the FIRST thing I have seen that makes me want a PS3 a lot. Sure I know that when FF XIII comes out, I'll have a tough time not dropping 600 on a PS3. News of another Chrono Trigger would practically make me run out and buy one. But I can wait for that. So Sony is doing the same thing to me with the PS3 that they did with the PS2; they'll release more and more things over the next 2-4 years that I simply WANT, until it's enough for me to validate a purchase of such a expensive machine. I'm content to wait it out and enjoy all the wonders of 360 and Wii in the years to come, knowing that someday I'll make a very smart decision and buy a PS3, but that day is still a ways off and SONY will need to keep doing things like Home and keep their exclusive titles (especially Square which is looking bleak) and play nicer. After the last year of feeling sick over everything PS3, I'm happy to see the first glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel.

I am happy that I've been smart enough to hold back and simply watch the PS3 until the day comes that it's finally worth playing.

Thanks Guys!

Yay! And I just finally found a Wii this weekend! I live in NYC (impossible to find) and was unexpectedly in Charlston, SC. Lo and behold, they had two in stock! Bring on that Mario Party!

Halo 1 wins out over 2 for me as well. I'm a solo-campaign fan myself, while online is fun in bursts, with friends and not Halo2 Addicted 15 year olds. I'll wait on buying Halo3 until I hear about the length of the single player. If it's as long as 1, I'll bite, but if it's near 2's, I'll wait for it to hit the cheap bin.

360, SNES, and for some odd reason, the OG Xbox has always been cool to me, menacing, but cool.

Sammy, I use gmail and got my invite around 5pm Monday.

go it, got it, got IT!
