It's "Now-Gen" ...

OK, so now that the Microsoft Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, and Sony PlayStation 3 have all launched, let's dispense with the "next-gen" moniker.

I mean, Nintendo isn't even trying to be "next-gen", being all cutesy by throwing around "new-gen".

But given the systems are all here, and there's no "next" on the horizon, I'm going with "now-gen" to collectively describe the three new consoles, and I'll stick with "last-gen" for the previous generation's consoles (or equivalents, like "Big Black Behemoth" for the old Xbox, and "I think I lost it on my bookshelf" for the slimline PS2).

So, for the Xbox 360, Wii, and PS3, it's "Now-gen".

"Now-gen" and all variations (c) & tm & (R) 2006 Adam Creighton.
