IGN Revolution channel open

Well, a first for IGN it seems on giving the channel but could they honestly blame them for having to do so?

But after reading the spec's, I think I'll at least have a Rev and PS3. Rev for the unique/fun games and PS3 for the "OMGWTFPWNZR GRAFFIX AND GAMES"

Nintendo's machine will simply not deliver the same graphic horsepower as its competitors. Revolution is all about the controller and what it can do for gameplay experiences.

I can't help it, part of the excitement of next generation consoles for me has always been improved graphics. A souped up Xbox would have nice graphics but they won't be as impressive as PS3 and Xbox 360 graphics. Still intrigued with the gameply though. Who knows, maybe the control scheme and gameplay will be so innovative and interesting that I won't mind played-down graphics.

I'm still very hesitant about the controller. To me, the now traditional D-pad set-up is ideal. It helps create a seamless bond between the gamer and the game. In my mind, if you have to think about the controller functionality after 30 minutes of gameplay, the game has failed you in a way.

I'll have to wait and see how it pans out. Maybe the new Nintendo controller will be the wave of the future... but it looks more like it will be doomed to follow the Virtual Boy. I do honestly hope I'm wrong, and th new controller is simply brilliant, but this new strategy by Nintendo for consoles just confounds me.
