I can agree with that.

And what's the latest news of PSX?

I read on CNNMoney that PS3 will be revealed with film footage of it's capabilities at the Game Developer's Conference in March (GDC) which is the event someone was trying to pull out but couldn't get the name.

Xbox 2 will not be revealed until E3, and the Revolution will have sneak peeks at the GDC.

PS3 will have footage of demos at GDC but at E3 they will have a Playable prototype.

I expect the reaction from the press at E3 to their prototype to be a building block to make it better. Xbox is making the mistake of releasing their next-gen end of 2005.. which is too early.

I don't know about it being a mistake for Microsoft to release the Xbox2 early. It all depends on how much quality is put into the design of the console and how much effort is put into the launch library. If it launches with a quality list of games and is a powerful quality machine, then they will have a good chance of getting the edge on the other consoles and may be able to pull some more life out of it next-gen.

But, the Dreamcast was released earlier than PS and the 64....

the dreamcast didn't last... but it was a good venture for sega

but i think if Xbox doesn't even have a playable prototype at E3 and release Xbox 2 Christmas of 2005.... they are rushing it a bit JUST to get an edge... but history repeats itself.

PS2 was released earlier than Xbox and Cube and both the X and Cube have successfully beaten it's power in graphics. So.. it leads me to believe, that the first of the 3 systems to be released will be there for the other 2 to build off of.

Who knows...

Well, the PS2 is the most successful console this gen. It has definetely been more popular, even though the other consoles are stronger graphically.

And your article says they will reveal Xbox 2 at E3, then that is good.

It just depends on if it will have strong enough sales at first to sustain it and enough staying power to outlast the newer consoles.

The article says that all 3 consoles are reported to be revealed at E3. But PS3 is the only console confirmed to have a playable prototype at E3. The other 2 supposedly will have footage of their console's capabilities.

So therefore Xbox2 and Revolution haven't confirmed working prototypes for E3.

GDC will have info and specs revealed about the ps3 and revolution, but Xbox won't say anything until E3 nor will they reveal anything.

Hopefully all 3 systems get playable prototypes to make this battle even more heated.
