I figure, there's probably going to be more people buying the PS3 because of the ENORMOUS fanbase that PS2 had. I'm sure everyone who owns an Xbox will get Xbox 2. And I'm sure the people that had a GameCube will stick with Nintendo. Why? Because everyone usually sticks with what they like.
I personally don't know, or care what the better system will be. I'll probably buy one a while after they're released, after I've decided what I like better. That's right, WHAT I LIKE BETTER. I don't care if one system has more power, or one system has more of a fanbase. I care about what I'll get the most play for my money out of.
This whole console war was started because of personal opinion. Same with the war between ATI fans and Nvidia fans. Same with Mac and PC. It's all about personal opinion, so if we could just stop arguing and accept that other people like different things, this would be a lot nicer topic.
Flame away, I don't care. I can handle it and back myself up.
