Less than 10% of TV's in NA are HDTV's. That number isn't going to increase to over 50% in the next couple of years at the prices they cost. To up to 35% of HDTV owners the Revolution may not meet their standards of what they want thier TV to utilize but to the other 65%+ of people that don't and won't have HDTV's the xbox360 is just expensive over-kill (As well as PS3 but the Playstation brand is on a whole nother level world-wide than the xbox brand so Sony won't have to worry)........ that doesn't do anything new as opposed to what we've been seeing for the past 10 years. Revolution could have mass market appeal. I know more 20-30 yr olds than I can count that are eagerly awaiting E3 2006 to see exactly what Revolution can do with the controls.
