In case you care, yes... I have been gaming since Pong. My first console was an Atari 2600... and I still have it. For the most part anymore, I'm a PlayStation 2 gamer (I play a lot of RPGs). Here's my platform history: Atari 2600 Coleco Adam (the Colecovision "computer"... hehe) Pong (an early Pong-only console... still hooked to the TV) A bunch of old handhelds (like the old Mattel Football) Sega Gamegear Macintosh (I'm a web designer... get over it) PC (for some gaming) GameCube Nintendo DS Lite PlayStation PlayStation 2 PlayStation Portable Xbox As for next gen... my plans are to pick up all three. I'm pretty excited about getting my hands on the Wii, thought the timing of my purchase of the PS3 and 360 will depend on when all the "must play" games arrive. My 360 list of "must plays" is building, but I've still got a back-catalog to finish up so no big rush (that and most of my "must play" list isn't released yet).
