So, anybody else think that Microsoft rushed the Xbox360 a little? I was always under impression that it is too early for a new Xbox to come out.

It sounds like it, at least from what I've read so far. The whole thing reminds me of the Dreamcast in a lot of ways. They're racing to be the first out of the gate with their next gen system to try and boost sales. The only problem is this generation isn't really dead yet and by the time Sony/Nintendo come out with their next gen hardware, the new Xbox may be a bit underpowered.
I currently own all three platforms and I'm sure I'll end up with all three in the next gen at some point as well. However, I've got tons of games I still want to play on my current systems before I start unplugging them. I'm not going to be looking to buy new hardware until sometime in 2006 and my first purchase will probably be the machine with the best specs. I expect all three platforms to have solid software, so that really won't factor in right away.
