the fact that the XBOX has a built in harddrive was definately a plus. i have yet to even come close to filling it up and i have more stuff on it than anyone i know. and thats alot.

Yeah, my uncle is rich and he has two x boxes. He customized them both with 260 gig hard drives and he has contacts so he got Halo 2 about 3 and a half weeks before it came out. We had Halo 2 parties before it hit the stores! It was fun.

dude xbox 2 will own ps3 for a few simple resons
1. xbox is going to turn into you home sterio after waching an interveiw with bill gates on like tech tv or sumthing he said it would a have amazing graphic potential and b would have the capabiltity to be used ans a photo album a cd player a dvd player a dvd recorder and a whole bunch of other shit i dont remeber any way i think xbox will own because it will have a multi use potential sure ps3 will have dvd and shit but i think xbox will surpass it in many ways and plus xbox has already the best gaming system in the world i dont think there about to be second guessed by sony

I have been reading, and doing few research on both systems, i have always favored xbox over ps. i am sure that microsoft will push the xbox capabilities over the ps3 at any cost in order to win a larger fan base and dominate the gaming market if you remember when the xbox was released it was release far after the ps2 haveing done that more ppl already invested there money into the ps2 and ps2 games and alot more games were devloped. ps2 was far beyong xbox in sells because of xbox’s late start and as you see after 4 years they are neck in neck, alot of the game developers would rather devlope their games for the ps2 simply because it was more widly owned than the xbox. they didnt care rather or not there games would be better on xbox but on how many potential sales they could have. now that xbox has caught up the game devlopers are more likely to make games for both, i have read a rumor that microsoft bought rights to all of sonys exclusive game makers after there current contract was expired if thats true expect to see same top selling games that you see on ps3 on xbox 2 as well. while microsoft still maintains there exclusive right such as halo and other games. from what i read of the cell processor sounds amasing, and ps3 is deff going to set a standard for the future of gaming consoles, but no one knows with any amount of cirtainity that this 'CELL” processore will be capable of what it claims and no one knows what microsoft has up there sleve. if we have a idea of what sony is doing on their next system you know microsoft does and like the current systems i believe that microsoft will keep the same stragy that it did before top the playstation on everything possible and considering it was microsofts first system to sony second xbox vs ps2 and xbox has rapidly caught up i strongly believe this next xbox will pull past the sony playstation within another 4 years seperating the margin as nintendo and sega once was, now that the systems will be release around the same time will be the true race for number one and i have my bets that the xbox will pull ahead

Xeon, for one reason... well, two: Halo 3 and Condemned. Condemned looks kick-ass.

XEON is intel multiprocesser, Aug/sept 05 for XBOX 2 release (i keep repeating my self) Halo 3 late 2005.

XBOX 2 - 3.5 5ghz, DVD (Please microsoft, use HD-DVD/bwdcompat), ATI VPU/GPU (sadly, instead of nvidia) CPU.

PS3 - 3.5 ghz, blueray, emotion -shitty - engine

lol, they know what they are doing better than us guys. I’m sure they realize they are going to need some serious power behind their processors to handle Halo 3 and other games.

ds is the best so ur all losers .if you like metroid go on my “metroid prime 3” forum titled metroid prime 3.

Black Hydra

Guest

Yeah, I have to agree, I’m sick of the Metroid 3 thing. It’s really not that fun.

Hey fucking looser, the PS3 is better is much better that XBOX 2 because the chip CELL and the graphics of NVIDIA are more powerfull that the the graphics of ATI.

the XBOX 2 may be a better system then the ps3 but the ps3 will have better games than the xbox 2

Tis true, Xbox is always taking ps2 games and using them for their own system.

u guys suck. The revolutions gonna wipe the floor with ps3 and xbox2.Nobody pound for pound can make a game better than nintendo.And the price of a memory stick for the psp is ridiculus £300 quid?-thats whati heard.

Black Hydra

Guest

Heh heh, that was funny. Listen man, nintendo made some good systems for it’s time. But not anymore. Microsoft and Sony are going to do awesome. Nintendo most likely will do poorly.

AaO

Guest

I a just going to wait until I try them both before I make anymore judgements.

Yeah, personally I didn’t like the gamecube this time around. But I liked the xbox and the ps2 the most

Dear god you people are stupid!

PS3 will be ALOT more powerful then Xbox 2...

Wanna know why? 2 Words mates...

The Cell

The cell is a fucking powerful processor, even more powerful then say 5 multi processors (which the xbox 2 may have)... And I’d like to see the cooling for xbox 2.... Hehehehe... that many processors... you’ll need so much cooling it’ll look like a 20” CRT monitor!

The Cell:
* 1 Processing Unit (PU)
* 8 X Attached Processing Units (APUs)
* Direct memory Access Controller DMAC
* Input/Output (I/O) Interface



Read some reviews and find out.

CELL Basics

The CELL processor is a collaboration between IBM, Sony and Toshiba. The CELL processor is expected by this consortium to provide computing power an order of magnitude above and beyond what is currently available to its competitors. The International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) 2005 was chosen by the group as the location to describe the basic hardware architecture of the processor and announce the first incarnation of the CELL processor family.

Members of the CELL processor family share basic building blocks, and depending on the requirement of the application, specific versions of the CELL processor can be quickly configured and manufactured to meet that need. The basic building blocks shared by members of the CELL family of processor are the following:

* The PowerPC Processing Element (PPE)
* The Synergistic Processing Element (SPE)
* The L2 Cache
* The internal Element Interconnect Bus(EI
* The shared Memory Interface Controller (MIC) and
* The FlexIO interface

Each SPE is in essence a private system-on-chip (SoC), with the processing unit connected directly to 256KB of private Load Store (LS) memory. The PPE is a dual threaded (SMT) PowerPC processor connected to the SPE’s through the EIB. The PPE and SPE processing elements access system memory through the MIC, which is connected to two independent channels of Rambus XDR memory, providing 25 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The connection to I/O is done through the FlexIO interface, also provided by Rambus, providing 44.8 GB/s of raw outbound BW and 32 GB/s of raw inbound bandwidth for total I/O bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s. At ISSCC 2005, IBM announced that the first implementation of the CELL processor has been tested to operate at frequencies above 4 GHz. In the CELL processor, each SPE is capable of sustaining 4 FMADD operations per cycle. At an operating frequency of 4 GHz, the CELL processor is thus capable of achieving a peak throughput rate of 256 GFlops from the 8 SPE’s. Moreover, the PPE can contribute some amount of additional compute power with its own FP and VMX units.


Eat that... PS3 pwns Xenon (whateva its called...)

god damn u guys are morons

HAVE any of u realized what the cell chip does?
It does shit for graphics it just improves clock speeds. PS3 is a bunch of bull shit and lies.
just like sony

And have u ppl realized who left sony to go to microsoft? The person who created your beloved final fantasy games.I wwonder why he changed?
In one of his articles he sais himself that he has games that he has been dreaming of and that only the xbox can fullfill. So all you ps3 fans who scream abvout how amazing the ps3 is going to be shoul look at facts instead of what is floating around your pathetic hopes and dreams.

xbox 2 is dead even before it has already begun its journey....the cell is something around 20-50 times more poweful than the x2 processor..considering the fact that x1 comprise of processor of 733 mhz as opposed to 500 for ps2..still we do not see any difference in the sales of ps2:xbox=81million:19 million....microsoft certainly has no answer to ps2....its dead for sure....i am gonna wait till the ps3 comes out...i can’t just wait to play the new final fantasy title on ps3
