No one keeping up with it???

I'm watching the Sony press conference now.

I thought a few things in the microsoft one was pretty cool. Rock Band 2 has an awesome set list. The avatars might be alright... the game show interface on XBL will be a lot of fun I bet. The netflix agreement could switch me from BB.com to netflix, although Roku doesn't have much of a library yet. The new fallout was GORGEOUS.

The nintendo conference was weak. Wii motion plus has potential to be cool. Wii music looks alright, although playing the drums with tapping your feet on the balance boards looked AWESOME.

I've been waffling about buying a PS3 for a while, again, pretty much solely for the blu-ray. The sony announcement at the beginning of putting Resistance and some other games at $30 makes it a little more interesting game-wise. Outside of resistance 2, which is on par with the new MS games, I still don't see the visual superiority of the PS3.

Anyone keeping up with thoughts?
