GC solely because of Nintendo's approach to this new console battle. Their approach is simple: We build a small, cheap, efficient gaming system that all people can play and enjoy. Microsoft, is going the other way: We will build the most massive, monstrous, over-powered gaming machine that also over-extends itself to do many things that our computers do anyways. Microsoft has only one Killer Game and that is Halo. They have nothing else that comes close to the Halo experience. So, if you haven't played 16 player Halo you are truly missing out, but it is so impractical to setup 16 player halo. You need 4 Xboxes, 16 controllers, and 4 copies of Halo, plus a router/lan equipment. We're talkin over $1000 here, Microsoft just doesn't get it.
