I don't have solid and blindless allegience as it is now, even owning the console. I don't think I can make a snap judgement as to what console I'll buy next generation, whichever will appeal to me the most, I personally really really really dislike the PS controller, but then again there are probably ways around that. As long as games interest me I'll be a buyer.

my friend NotStan

exactly wht i was looking for.

only about 5 people have come to this conclusion other than the OP which is me as i voted (to early to tell).

yea im sure there are other controlers for PS3 or 4 that may fit your interest.

You don't have to have blind faith into one of manufacturers to have at least strong ideas pointing toward  one of big three:

- trophies/achievments - if you like them you might find console from the same manufacturer more appealing

- backwards compatibility - if you have big game collection chances are you will be more tempted to buy system that plays them or you might buy competitors consoe with bc to have access to previous gen titles for platform you didn't have this time.

- strenght of first party studios - we know more or less who has what resources for developing exclusives

- ip library - we know who owns ips for our favourite heroes

So i'm one of people who voted to early to tell because I have my favourites but i don't take them for granted and radical shift in big 3 characterists would change the stuff i plan to buy but in last two gens only Wii was drastic shift in manufacturer history.

PS3 was similar to PS2 , PS2 was similar to PS1

X360 is like an upgraded Xbox

Gamecube was similar to SNES then Wii made radical change.

Chances that all big three pull Wii in the next gen are small.

sum's it all up for me.

a focus on the past, present, and the future. agreed totaly
