SteveThaiBinh Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 The Xbox 360 can stand on its end or on its side. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> This will clearly be the main selling point. From the same article: The technical make-up of the machine is largely what was expected. Under the bonnet, the 360 is powered by a processor with three IBM PowerPC 3.2GHz chips, with a custom ATI 500MHz graphics processor and 512Mb of RAM. According to Microsoft, this will offer a teraflop of overall performance. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Teraflop? "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."

Child of Flame Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 I now must laugh at everyone who said the leaked pictures I linked to were fake. You know, because they were all definitely real, and in some cases they were better than these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'll be buying either now. <_< <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think I may buy the used Xbox of a friend once the Xbox 2 comes out solely in order to replay Jade Empire (which I have already played on a borrowed Xbox, having been unwilling to purchase one). This is its sole relevance to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BicycleOfDeath Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 I'm not that impressed with any of the launch titles, but I preordered one anyway. XBOX seems to be the console that's directing it's goals towards my interest the best. Hopefully they do this generation, too. Stand Your Convictions and You Will Walk Alone.

11XHooah Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 By the looks of things Sony had better hurry up with the PS3, or the competition will be too much. War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. --John Stewart Mill-- "Victory was for those willing to fight and die. Intellectuals could theorize until they sucked their thumbs right off their hands, but in the real world, power still flowed from the barrel of a gun.....you could send in your bleeding-heart do-gooders, you could hold hands and pray and sing hootenanny songs and invoke the great gods CNN and BBC, but the only way to finally open the roads to the big-eyed babies was to show up with more guns." --Black Hawk Down-- MySpace: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea...iendid=44500195 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkreku Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 By the looks of things Sony had better hurry up with the PS3, or the competition will be too much. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why? The only thing we've seen so far are very short glimpses of games that, in my opinion, didn't look that impressive, plus a bunch of impressive technical specs. There's nothing revolutionary about the new Xbox. It's all been done before. There's a PowerPC processor (with a bunch of cores) an ATI graphics card, a small harddrive, wireless controllers, a quite ugly design (again) and nothing else. Why get excited about a console that offers nothing new, just the same old stuff with a little extra power behind it? I am hoping Nintendo and Sony has something extra to offer this time around. I think Nintendo might actually win this round, IF they indeed do have something up their sleeve. At least the Nintendo president said something along the lines, "Today's consoles already have great graphics. To bring the gaming industry forward, the new consoles need more than just better graphics". I think he hit the nail right on the head. One more thing: Why did Microsoft rush the Xbox 360? They offer nothing inventive, give their opponents a whole year to beat them in every aspect and the only thing they can hope for is that the developers have time to churn out lots and lots of quality game titles between the release of their Xbox 360 and the release of the other consoles. If that doesn't happen, then I believe both Nintendo and the PS3 will surpass the new Xbox. Microsoft didn't exactly blow the competition out of the water with the Xbox 360, but we'll see if they have something clever planned for the future.

Darth Flatus Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 maybe not afetr all sony has a much bigger market share than xbox and gamecube combined. So they would have to make a real mess of things to succumb to competition. IF they add backwards compatibility to ps3 sony will have it made.

Microsoft didn't exactly blow the competition out of the water with the Xbox 360, but we'll see if they have something clever planned for the future. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, Xbox 360 does have USB 2.0 connectivity, and interactivity with pretty much any USB 2.0 device (including the PSP) according to the stuff said over at Tom's Hardware Guide. Nintendo should've won the last round, everyone couldn't get over the aesthetic appearance of the box though. It had better hardware than the PS2, almost equal hardware to the Xbox. A cheaper price tag than both, and because it didn't try to be a multimedia center, it has less things to go wrong with it. Because of this, whereas PS2 and Xbox consoles will be on the scrap heap in a few years, the Cubes will probably last as long as their predecessors.

Darth Flatus Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 ninty didnt win the last round cos it wasnt a dvd player and it had no backwards compatibility. The new xbox and ps3 will be examples of convergence technology as regards to media entertainment. Ninty has said their next console will focus purely on gaming. If this is true then i think they will be closed off to a large portion of the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sony and MS give you 90 days. Nintendo gives you a full year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
