Electronic Arts game developer Andrew Garrett thinks 360 will be top dog this generation.
At FreeRepublic.com, a thread popped up concerning which console to buy. Electronic Arts game dev Andrew Garrett jumped in, writing:
''Last year, the prediction was that Sony would win the next-gen war, that the PS3 would be the dominant console, just like the PS2 was.
That is no longer the case. The extremely strong performance of the Wii, combined with the miserable performance of Sony has revised pretty much everyone's expectations. Right now, most of us here think the 360 will be on top for this generation, with the battle for second place between Sony and Nintendo (and that's a major shock, as we'd nearly written Nintendo off for the non-handheld market.) Most of us still think Sony will beat off Nintendo, simply due to the older graphics on the Wii, but it's not a sure thing.
My opinion, get the 360 and/or the Wii. Skip the PS3 unless there's a big change in the near future.''
So, who is this Andrew Garrett? He's worked on titles like The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle Earth II and Medal of Honor: European Assault. Previously Garret worked at Dragonstone Software, where he created scientific engines for moving clothes and hair on characters in-game.

A gorgeous visual reimagining of the series.
As a co-operative multiplayer experience, Left 4 Dead is unparalleled on the Xbox 360.
Overall F.E.A.R. 2 Project Origin is shaping up to be the first memorable game of 2009.
It’s looking like 2009 could finally be the year PS3 makes up lost ground.
It may be more of the same, but why differ from an already winning formula?
In the time we’ve spent in the world we can’t help but feel disappointed.
