I heard that the NES could beat all of them. It's more powerful and it plays off cartridges.

its too soon to say....IMO, we know the specs and it seems that the ps3 very well may have a bit more power, however, its not the system that makes it, its the software..... I am a 360 owner, I stand by it and microsoft, so far I have nothing but praise, sure this summer was bad for gaming, but thats what fall and winter months are for.....

Some people I talk to believe that the ps3 will rule because of blue-ray....I couldnt care less at this point, plus with the new HD DVD drive that is coming soon for the 360 I have the ability to go HD if I choose too. Its something I will probably do down the road, but for now I am content.

The WII intrests me greatly, thats why I pre-ordered one. ;)

Without getting technical: (I hate being technical on this topic after I wrote a 30-page, single-spaced report on "cell" processing while in college)

Both consoles have their strong points. The PS3 *could* have been more powerful, but its bottlenecks are more damaging than the 360's (in my opinion). I think that distinguishing quality in multi-platform titles will depend on whatever the developer is most familar with, but I feel that the 360 has a slight advantage overall (and could turn into even a bigger advantage by the middle of its life cycle).

ps3 probably has more raw processing power (i heard that the cell processor has 8 cores or something). the 360 isnt that much behind it. it could even be equal.
