Yeah, I've noticed those specs - WOW

Lets hope they don't down grade it.

And that the old modders can do their work, but there will always be a special place in my heart for the xbox1 :wink:

Very nice, but instead of the Google logo could you maybe post these XBox 2 specs?

:lol:

Apparently 2nd quarter 2005 now, M$ are keen to get out before PS3 and hopefully avoid playing catchup, If XBox2 isn't backward compatible, they are going to have a struggle on their hands though.

Mind you if the other rumour about Xbox2 having a removable HD that can be used like an iPod are true, it'll sell like hot cakes :)

Ohgod, which bit are you suggesting is a prank?

It's already well known that M$ are using 3(virtual) x powerPC (Power976) CPU's, the rest is fairly standard

Looks quite powerfull I suppose....

More curious about that revolutionary architecture of the PS3....

Ah hell with time I'll probably get them all anyway...

I think Xbox2 and PS3 will probably end up sharing a CPU (or multiple CPUs), IBM are providing for both : http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/mmedia/dis ... 61648.html

The prank, I think, is that if you click on the link you posted, you get the google logo (unless I'm going mad).

OhGod's right click/save and upload to hhah webspace solved it though. :D

Back on topic: Mmmmmmmmmmm......

Maybe I wait to buy an XBox2 then....

I propose we all just wait for the E3......

At least a few revelations are sheduled there....

If Billy $ is that eager to be first in the new generation I'm sure all will be revealed about xbox2 then......

No mystery and yes PC, the final specs probably won't differ too much from what's posted....



Look I don't want to sound like a fanboy but I'm really wondering what sneaky sony is up to right now.... they revealed their hand as far as their software line up goes last week and one must say "P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C...... "

I'm just wondering what sony has got in the other hand (yea , I do play poker on occasion :twisted: )

If they go in solely with that software lineup, again pulling out MGS3 and GT4 as flagships they'll get slaughtered.......and some exec at sony has gotta be aware of this as well....

As for nintendo.....well I've heared a rumor that it's next gen will be revealed at e3 , but that same mag also reports N joining forces with sony....so I dunno bout that......

Little over 2 weeks on my calendar folks......and we'll now a helluva lot more ..

Have you got a link to the sony's Software lineup ohgod?

I've heard conflicting reports about Nintendo, one has them throwing in with M$ and one with Sony. I can't see Nintendo and Sony, but the M$ deal would make sense for both companies, M$ in the west and Nintendo in the east, after the disatrous showing M$ have had in Japan and the not world alighting performance of the GC in the west, that would make a lot of sense.

Sony may drop the ball, look at Nintendo and the N64 (and Sega and the saturn/Dreamcast), it's rare for a manufacturer to remain top of the pile in the console market for more than 2 generations (unheard of AFIAK).

Well they really were planning , just as billy $ , to release its machine before Sony.....late 2004 /early 2005 Japan.....

This came from a head honcho at TINY N self.....but that was like 6 months ago.......

I think they hit a snag....or they're fabulous poker players :twisted:
