All right guys...

I guess the real question on everyone's mind is how these technology wars (the shitty blue ray discs versus the even shittier hd dvd discs) are going to affect video games for those of us who do not currently have a great deal of money. Here's Owen's dilemma:

I am without any platform with which to play video games. I can't figure out if any of the new ones are even worth investing in. I mean, fuck the fucking Wii. Nothing about that looks like any fun. The Xbox 360 is well and good for Ben and his shooting games, but does it offer anything else. The Playstation 3 would be my top choice but it has that damnable blue ray thing going on and apparently Sony is having a lot of problems. That said, it supports PS2 games and it looks like it may have some good titles down the road. Is any of it worth it? Should I not play video games anymore?

Forget the PS3 right now. it's like $600 bucks. I'd wait until some decent games come out. Also, the X-Box 360 will have Jade Empire 2, and Mass Effect (Basically Knights of the Old Republic, but in a cheap rip-off stars wars universe).
But you should probably not play any video games, and spend your extra time focusing on writing the great american novel, or filming the great american you-tube video.
