Your console is bigger than mine

[Vandenh]

I just found a rather interesting image (http://www.evilgamerz.com/EG%20Nieuws/images/EG/consoles_langs_elkaar.jpg)comparing the sizes of all the current gen and next gen consoles.

Remember one inch = 2.5 cm ;) Revolution is really small!

[LilEvilFish]

I wonder how accurate that is.. you'll end up losing the revolution down the back of your games etc. nice and small tho

[Kelegacy]

The Revolution might be the most attractive console I've ever seen. And the PS3 might be the ugliest/most generic. Yes, even worse than the original Xbox.

[Abash Alarmist]

UGh....Damnit. What the hell is with the JList thing all over the damn website? Are we now advocating porn? What if Jack Thompson found this website? Lawsuit anyone? ;)

[Cubfan]

The Revolution looks rather generic/bland to me.

I've noticed quite an increase in hentai ads myself. I blame Kelegacy. His corrupting influence has obviously had an effect on the type of J-List ads shown over here.

Thanks a lot, Kel.

As for the Revolution, I like the fact that it looks small enough to fit in a kangaroo pouch. Not that I have a kangaroo to help me carry my Revolution around, but if I did, that'd be the way to transport it.

Oh, I really need to get more sleep...

[JazGalaxy]

I think it's funny that they try to pretend the 360 is smaller than the xbox. They shaved off, like, a centimeter and added on a power brick the size of a shoe box. Oooh! So small!

[fushi]

I found this image rather interesting:

If it makes the Hentai ads go away, I will donate money to this site again...I think this is just a subtle call from Evil that he needs more donations..

[fushi]

I, on the other hand, will stop donating, because browsing EvAv in female company makes it feel more livelier.

[Abash Alarmist]

The thing is though, is that I usually access the website from a work computer. And if a trusted website like EvAv begins hosting adspace for a Hentai site, then the site will be redlabeled and will be blocked because of it. This also isn't just for the fact that it will be blocked, but also the fact that I come here for Gaming news, not to be bombarded with scantily clad female drawings.

[absolut taco]

The most interesting thing on that page is how small PS2 v2 is compared to v1. That is impressive.

[Phades]

The Revolution might be the most attractive console I've ever seen. And the PS3 might be the ugliest/most generic. Yes, even worse than the original Xbox.

I'm sorry, but just because it's small doesn't instantly equal beautiful. It's not ugly like the PS3, but it's certainly nothing exciting. It's a block on its side with lights on it. Woohoo.

[Straydog3d]

Damn with the revolution the only slightly bigger than dvd case I guess nintendo really is thinking about dominating the 'portable' market

[boratika]

This also isn't just for the fact that it will be blocked, but also the fact that I come here for Gaming news, not to be bombarded with scantily clad female drawings.

Well they are hentai games.

[Abash Alarmist]

Please. That doesn't really matter to this discussion. I could create an entire website dedicated to porn, and have a single 'sex' game on it and probably could sell it to Evil to host it on the site.

[Jacob Singer]

The Revolution might be the most attractive console I've ever seen.

Seriously? The thing looks just like my router or cable modem.

For a news site that prides itself on "attitude", there sure are a hell of a lot of prudes around here.

[ezra]

But they're prudes with 'tude, man.

[Spigot]

That is the best line I've seen all day.

Fushi, does the Rev use standard DVD-size discs? I think that the disc was there to illustrate how small it is compared to a DVD. Wouldn't Nintendo stick to something like their smaller Cube-sized discs... heck, they could probably use some kind of flash memory cartridge and eliminate load times altogether.

Imagine that. Going back to cartridges in this day and age...

The point is those hentai ads are all for games. Other than that there are the general Jlist ones which don't have hentai in them. Also Jlist is a porn site only in the sense that a newsagent is a pornographer for selling playboy.

[fable2323]

The Revoulution uses standard DVD's and Gamecube sized DVD's as well. It was announced early on that it would also play DVD movies.

[51|RandoM]

Imagine that. Going back to cartridges in this day and age...

You'd still have load times.

[CrysDark]

EvAv is no longer safe for work, lol

There is no nudity, so why are you in trouble

[Kelegacy]

I'm sorry, but just because it's small doesn't instantly equal beautiful. It's not ugly like the PS3, but it's certainly nothing exciting. It's a block on its side with lights on it. Woohoo.
I think it's that blue light thingy that grabbed my interest. Black and blue, I like it, especially when it's sitting vertical. But then again, I think the purple Gamecube is cute as heck, too.

[Steele Johnson]

The Revolution doesn't use cd's, it uses 1 gig sd cards.


j/k

Yeah, by all means, bring back the ad with the chick on one knee that looks like she's screaming because she's taking it up the ass. Had some fake tagline about 'tired of being fragged by your lag?' but we knew it was just pron.

[kokyunage]

Click on the ad and see where it takes you. The first page is a splash page for 18 and over content. Guess what? If any admin person or any of my bosses would see that they would consider it porn. Most of the folks on EA who browse from work probably don't feel comfortable with these ads.

It doesn't matter that they sell games. Playboy.com sells games as well.

[dr_wily]

amazing how the eye is tricked on the concave lines of the 360. I swore it was smaller , but design sure plays tricks on you..

man the xbox with its fat lines makes it just look huge, what a horrible idea.

I personally dont mind the ad's, their just there on the side and I generally ignore them anyway.

As for the revolution looking sexy, I agree, I really like the small and compact design.

More attractive does not equal beautiful. I think it's a comment on how ugly most consoles are. I like how the Rev and the 360 both look vaguely Apple-ish, though I don't think they'll be worrying Apple anytime soon.

[GWhite]

Heh, I had to turn off the inline add blocking in my browser (Camino) to find out what all of you were complaining about.
Though granted if I was browsing from work it would not matter if they were blocked or not, the URLs would still be visible to whatever company spyware was running on my workstation.

[endrom]

Seriously? The thing looks just like my router or cable modem.
My thoughts excatly, I cant understand how simple it looks. the one picture with the discs and the revolution makes a good point about its real size. but its still a solid little block. hopefully it can with stand a sledgehammer when it comes out...

[Abash Alarmist]

Its nintendo so you know its quality.

[Player 1]

Its nintendo so you know its quality.

The Virtual Boy was Nintendo too. :rolleyes:

Nice to see Apple innovating Nintendo's design ideas. I wonder how neat it'll look when you have the flap open to plug in a GC controller? Or when it gets covered in fingerprints. I mean, shiny is lovely but fingerprints detract from the style.

At least it's not a dust-magnet like the grills on the PS2 are. Ew.

[Thenetcase]

I really don't mind the advertisements, but I think that they should find something real to advertise for, instead of this cheap Japanese craptastic porno games site.

Keep it real ... :P
