I'd have to say the Revo. While all the systems look impressive, there's far too much emphasis put on processing power and other numbers that mean next to nothing in game. What I'm interested in is how it plays, and what there is special about it.
The Revo has the sequels to all my favourite games planned. It's also code-named the Revolution for a reason, you can bet Nintendo has a few tricks up their sleeve. It's also backwards compatible the Gamecube, and you can download games from the NES, SNES and N64 through a nintendo-provided service. And that's not even going into the controller, wi-fi straight out of the box, and a myriad of other features.
In conclusion... Super Smaaaaaash Broooooothers Revoluuuuution!

Not too bothered about the PS3 or 360, the only games I played on the ps2 were the GTAs which eventually get ported around anyway
although the GP2x is my next purchase

The PS3 might be cool, but it doesn't look promising. From what I've looked up, it is supposed to have a big engine and huge memory space, but who is going to use that much space? I almost never run out, and if I do it isn't that much trouble to buy another memory card. It doesn't look like Sony has anything promising in the recent future.

XBOX 360 has 6 engines, is twice as powerful as the PS3 (supposedly) and costs almost half the price. Yeah, the PS3 has two video cards, but from what I've heard the 360 is supposed to be ahead of everything that comes out for computers for atleast 2 years. Don't flame me if this isn't true, that's just what I've read. The only problem with this is that I don't need that much power or that much memory. The only reason I'm going to get it is because it has the best Live feature of any console (not including PC's, duh) and has some cool games like Halo, GTA, Unreal Championship, ect.

PS3 will probably have realistic games, XBOX will have smooth games that play well, and Nintendo will have cartoons running around and rolling barrels.

You take your pick...

ok... from what i heard of the new systems the new line will do pretty much what a xbox with a modchip already does but faster (except the destroying anti piracysystems and ignore regioncoding

it plays old games (nintendo revoution)
it plays music files (probably all)
and it does others as well... but im too lazy to type all the legal uses
so... pretty much the new systems will do things that people haver to put chips into their systems to do now... except the whole cheating thing which im sure will never go away as long as there is a xboxlive game with a ranking system
well as for the revolution.... its a nintendo... and after the ds and the gamecube, i dont trust them anymore. the nes was the best
