So what do you say? Would you buy a new console? Barely got a PS3/Xbox 360? Or maybe you're still sporting a PS2?

Please dismiss the bottom options, for some reason I couldn't edit them out. If a mod can do this, then awesome.

I'd be OK if the next Xbox was released later this year, but the PS3 got released in '07 here, so it's a bit soon for that.

Ya!! I would love to throw away $800 on a new system that does the exact same thing as my current console.

I voted for E because I enjoy the infinite possibilities contained in an choice that is both nothing and possibly everything.

As for the question, I'd rather just focusing on this generation of gaming. I don't believe Microsoft, Sony or Nintendo are ready to move on either.

No new consoles before the next Presidential election (well, maybe an HD Wii).

Hell no. It's way too soon. And in this economic climate, they'd be stupid to release a new console now.

Too soon. The current gen still has lots of power to be tapped into. And if you think that these systems have reached their maximum potential, I have to ask just what your looking for in a game.

As much as I'd like to see how the next generation console (Xbox 720 for myself) could go with graphics and crap, it's not the time to put out a new console. This console lifespan is probably going to be a little bit more longer; thanks to the economic recession and a few other things. Though the Wii could use a upgrade for a Wii HD, it's pretty much stuck between the 6th and 7th generation in terms of graphics. Otherwise, I'd wait until 2011 or beyond before a new console will come out.

No, and I hope we aren't ready for another 2-3 years at least.

I don't think I'd buy a new console right away, at the very least not right a launch. Aside from my 360 dying every six months or so I'm pretty happy with my current consoles.
I'm pretty sure I could do without new ones for quite some time.

I really can't wrap my head around why someone would want a new console now, or better yet why they would think that any of the manufacturers would be ready to put a new one out in the market.

Absolutely no significant reason right now.  360 and PS3 have a lot of life left in them.  With focus on gameplay, online play, and less on improving graphics, I think both systems will last longer than the standard 5 years.  Yes, I'd like a 360 that plays Blu Ray, or a Wii that has a Hard Drive and HDMI, but it would be the same system.

In the 90s, everyone wanted better and better graphics, so companies were obsessed with making the next best thing.  Now, games have evolved past that (like movies have evolved past CGI showcases), and gamers want new ideas, good stories, and originality).  Those can all be achieved with these systems.

There is really no reason to upgrade because with connection to a network and updating, these systems naturally have a longer life than past systems.  I think it's a really good thing.  No reason to spend close to $1000 on another system and tons of peripherals, when these systems are doing great, and have a longer life because they are connected to WWW and can be expanded.  Plus, it's even less desirable in this economy, to have to worry about upgrading. 

Even if an upgrade did become available, it would have less games, less features, and most importantly, less users and therefore less community, right off the bat!  Mix that with the fact that less people would be buying due to a bad economy, and it could be a real disaster.  In previous generations I always found mystelf asking for more, this is the first generation I can honestly say I'm pretty satisfied.  I think this generation will probably last as long as the NES did, if not longer.  Mainly because, again, the fact that they are connected to the net allows for more room for expansion, and a much longer life.

No, it's still way too early.  I think releasing the 360 only 4 years after the original xbox has gotten a lot of people worried that we're due for another one soon.
