[ceminess]

well its good to here that they will have a free xbox live service, and yeah thoses specs sound pretty cool, now i will just sit here and wait for some ps3 leeks, i am wondering how the competition is going to be.

[Toastyone]

I just want it to be backward compatible or very easy to emulate the games, Sony did it with the ps2 why can't Microsoft :(

I can't see how my comment was trashy, if i said 'OMG J00 R TEH NUB' then fair enough, but i didn't... :rolleyes:

The best part is that its backward compatible with the HDD.

These specs are rumored to be from this magazine, an official partner of Microsoft for the Xbox 360.

CPU Game Math Performance

- 9 billion dots per second

It can do a whopping 9 billion "dots" per second in mathemetical equations! Since when have CPUs used dots to solve mathematical equations? That makes absolutely no sense.

I raised exactly those points yesterday and was attacked for it. :pinch:

I've heard sqawk about two versions being available...a lower end "just the games, please" version and the "whole kit and kaboodle" version for up to $200 more.

Although I'm certain to buy the loaded version, I have converns about the reliability of wireless controllers for gaming. Anyone have any experience?

I'm concerned that this version is apparently vertical in nature. I just have to think that this puts your disc more at risk of scratches when you insert/remove them.

Now, anyone care to take a guess when a <cough> backup program </cough> will be come available?

How do they expect to get by with just 8.5gb Dual Layer DVDs.

Xbox needs a next gen Optical Disc, especially with all the HD stuff thats guna go into these games. I thought MS was pro HD-DVD anyway?

I still believe Blu-ray is the better technology :)

[DodgeViper]

All I hope that is hackable as soon as the xbox360 is out is changing of the region to PAL.

[Tech Star]

Cool thx

It's called compression, the xbox uses it ALOT most games uncompressed would be DVD-9.

They will uncompress it on the fly with one of the processors they have in the machine.

This will also make the games cheaper not having to press expensive media and the sell it to us.
