4 gameing options avaliable. Which one should I choose?

I am a huge sony fan simply because ive used the playstation, psone and the ps2 pretty much all the time for a long time.  But my english teacher taught me something very important that you should do your research before you commit to any decision.  Its like buying a car, you want to research all the possibilites out there avaliable and see which one will be the best to use.  So I now just got done watching the press conferences by Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo.  I am really impressed by all three of them.  And by the way I said 4 gaming options because there will more than likely be an even better PC system out there that will appeal to me as well.  I liked the PSP and PS3 compatability and the titles that were coming out on it, like Tekken 6 and Virtua Fighter 5, Sonic and a few others I cant remember.  I was impressed with the gamplay of the Wii with its very different yet innovative controller.  I watched how many things you could do with that kind of controller like fighting with Samurai and all the different games you could do like ping pong, etc.  And Microsoft's 360, that demonstration of KillZone really interested me, plus the Arcade Feature of XBOX live and the number of games that were coming out on it.  Before I watched those conferences, I was intent on buying the PS3 only, but now I am divided and I dont know which direction to go.  I will have alot of money avaliable to me once I graduate from A.I.T, at least $7000.  But I cant buy all 3 of them like I want to because I want to get a car.  I will eventually get all 3 of them, but which direction should I go first?

Hey everyone out there in this community, Whats up?  Im writing this in at a Judge Advocate Hotel in South Carolina.  Im at an Military Lawyer training session for the weekend. Its really cool.  I have learned alot about my unit and I am having a great time at the hotel I am staying at.  The rooms are nice, they got computers, a weight room, vending machines, and the breakfast and lunch is the best ive had in a long time.  Im basically here hanging out with a few enlisted and ALOT of officers.  Its a great experience indeed.  Im not really missing home at all, except for my cats.  I didnt think I would be able to access the internet here, but I was wrong on that too!  Im disappointed that I have to leave tomorrow afternoon, but im sure ill be back here next year.  Just a few more weeks till I graudate.  Im so excited!!  Then off to A.I.T.  Well, im going to see what else this hotel has to offer.  Till next week!

Nothing much going on.  I didnt go to my prom because I didnt have a tuxedo and I didnt get paid until the day of the prom.  Oh well ill make it to the one in college.  Just a few more weeks left.  I dont think I will have any exams so all I need to do is pass all of my classes and I am home free!  My ex girl actually spoke to me for once, I am glad that we did not have to become enemies.  For all of those watching the NBA playoffs, too bad for Memphis; they almost had the victory.  They were celebrating too early and then they didnt finish the game and they lost in overtime.  But that series really doesnt matter to me, its all about the Miami Heat!  I cant wait for the school yearbooks to come out, I paid my senior dues so they are already paid for.  I wish I had the yearbooks from all four years I went to high school, I have my 10th grade and 11th grade yearbook, but I missed my 9th grade yr book.  Ah well. Next weekend I have to go to Ft. Jackson in South Carolina for some military duty.  It should be fun, Ill be in a hotel with a room of my own.  Perhaps I will hang out somewhere or with someone during that time.....  Well, other than that, thats pretty much it.  Till next time.

This comes a day late, I forgot about it yesterday.  Lets just say Ive had better Sundays than today.  I was put on the spot to be the greeter today and nobody even told me that I was doing it.  I didnt even volunteer for the job.  I was told by my mom that I would be the greeter.  Then she tried to say that I didnt do a good job with it.  Well, because of that that will be the last time I greet anyone ever.  Only a couple more weeks till graduation for me, I am excited.  Another week of school to get through, at least I wont have to ride the bus anymore since I now drive.  Anyone watching the playoffs right now?  Who is your favorite team?  My favorite team is the Miami Heat and I want the lakers to win in the Western Conference.  I know its a long shot, but I would like the Miami Heat and the L.A. Lakers to meet in the finals.  I can only pray that it happens...

Well, nothing much is going on with me.  I just saw my ex with her new boyfriend a few days ago and to tell you the truth, he looks like Barney.  LOL.  But other than that I am now driving anywhere I want to, and I plan to get a part time job unloading trucks for Dollar General.  Its an easy job and I can make a little extra cash on the side. I have church tommorow, and they are serving breakfast, which I will not miss under any circumstances, other than that my spring break is almost over:(  Oh well.  I got to finish school so I can graduate and move on with my life.
