Its the key and they also seem to be revealing a lot more upcoming games at E3 compared to the xbox which I think is the other key thing. [/ QUOTE ] I guess. But really both systems will have most of the bigger games. Everyone knows that. There will still be a few unique titles to both systems, but the real decision for most people will be - "Which system do I want to play all the big cross-platform titles on?" I have to wait until closer to the launches to determine the answer to that question in relation to the public's needs/desires. For me it doesn't matter... I'll still end up buying both, and probably the next Nintendo, too. One basically has to if they want to play all the quality games. <font color="white">Move along... just video game talk!</font>

Re: PS3
We have 2 PS2's and two gamecubes in our house with 20-30 games for each system (as well as a load of PS1 games).
I dont think their is a real decision for me, backward compatibilty becomes more of a concern thna anything, although the fact that the machines are so cheap could mean we get an xbox2 as well. I feel that is the biggest obstacle for the xbox it needs to be substantially better than PS3 to get people to change. At this point I dont think it is.
