That was great and isn't that how they officially unveiled Super Mario Bros. 3?

(on a side note: imo, Super Mario Bros. 3 is the greatest video game ever released)

Based on that, the XBox is smaller than the PS3, imagine that, lol. Isn't there a dimension missing? Shouldn't there be 3 dimensions?

If you notice it has one 3.2G Core with 7 additional cell processors each running at 3.2. If you watch any of the tech demos you can see that Microsoft got it's hiney handed to it yesterday. I agree with one reporter when he said that Killzone for PS3 looks better than any FPS EVER. Including Half-Life 2 and Doom 3. Check them out on ign.com. I think the best description I read was that the PS3 is truly next-gen while the XBox 360 is like the evolution of PS1 to PS2. Unless they delay the XBox release until next year, I don't think they will have time to up the specs to PS3 standards, if they can seeing as they don't have CELL.

I am tempted at getting a 360 and the Revolution, all those old Nintendo games are bringing back fond memories. It's a tough call between Mario and Legend of Zelda on my fave though.

PS3 has a Blue-Ray drive and will be able to show 2 1080P signals at the same time via HDMI output. That alone wins it for Sony for me.
BTW the X-box is not fully backwards compatible. It will only be able to play "some previous games".

I want Xbox 360 for Ninja Gaiden Black (I'm the biggest Ninja Gaiden fan ever, have them all)
PS3 is the better machine, and more developers are signing up for sony, so it would be hard to pass it up.
So my vote went to Playstation, I hate how 360 will charge for almost everything.

PS3 is more developer friendly too, so guaranteed better and more games. Not only is it more powerful but will get a better selection no doubt.
I want Revolutions just for the 20 years of Nintendo games available to DL. That makes it a buy for me. Hopefully I can get all 3 one day.

Duck Hunt and a gun was included- and I STILL am trying to kill the blasted dog.
I bought a GBA just to play with Super Mario...
Best Game EVER though is the SNES Zelda or Sim City.

Ninja gaiden series on the NES is the best. Any of you ever play Who Framed Roger Rabbit on the NES? That was the coolest game ever at the time. It was like the grand theft auto for NES.

See, that his house, which you can actually walk to and get in, underneath. You only get to drive his yellow car, but you either need to find it or buy the whistle to get it to come to you.
games like this make me want the revolution, because I rented hundreds of NES games when I was little and still remember the titles and how to beat them.

PS3 hands down..
Sony has been making video game consoles for a longer time then microsoft has. Xbox 360 will be a great video game console but i go to a lot of forums that talk about video games and from all the technology people found out about the xbox 360 and the PS3 it is a known fact that PS3 is going to be two times as powerful as the Xbox 360. The Nintendo revolution is no competition to Microsoft or Sony. And i dont think its a bad thing since i always saw nintendo as more of a kids console anyways (mario, zelda, etc..)
The only problem im seeing with the consoles are the wireless controllers. I remember a lot of pple having trouble with them when they bought them seperately for PS2 and Xbox. Plus i hate the fact that they changed the design of the PS3 controller. That was a really bad move on sony's part. The controller they made looks like it should have one inch cut off from both handles. But if its easy to hold and control then im fine with it.
