Comment by: nuttin_88 (Nov 16, 2005 14:25) @ six.6.six I remember when i used to do that same thing to get my ps2, I got a's and b's for the whole 7th grade year.
I'm not buying the 360 but it is a damn good system from what i've read. The backward compatibilty thing is not a big deal because mostly everybody is getting the $400 deal and they are going to update |

Comment by: Triock (Nov 16, 2005 15:40) I am correcting you... The 360 has 3 3.2 duel cores that will have ht technology, which means that that it will have a virtual processor inside every single one of the processors.... thats about 9 processors that will be able to all do different stuff.... the ps3 will have 1 3.2 cell processor which they finally got stable... and 256 mg of ram... xbox 360 has 512, but is shared...
I am an xbox fan and yes the ps3 will be better technicaly... But remember With the developers using this kind of architexture Its going to take a while to find out how to use all of that power... and the cool thing is that the developers for the 360 will be able to put certian parts of the game on each processor = a very nice streaming system...
I am 14 and i am getting the platinum edition 360... And yes i cant wait till X-Mas... Any questions that you have i will be happy to answer...
Thanks for reading this, Triock |

If they think they have the right to invade our P.C's (Yes, that's our P.C's) then, given such a great opportunity like the launch of the ps3, I am certain that they will slip the DRM in and then just hope that everyone will be so caught up in the hype of it, that they won't give it a second thought.

Comment by: novicebb (Nov 17, 2005 14:50) Guys have you seen the pricing for the games on the XBOX 360? If they are $60 bux then I wonder how much a game that is on Blu-ray will cost. I do have to admit that microsoft seems to have made some blunders with this system. But I still hear that there will be a total of three different version of the XBOX 360 and I could have sworn I read that the 360 has 3 core processor not one. Maybe I am wrong |

Comment by: Triock (Nov 17, 2005 14:52) Yes it is on 1 chip, but their are 3 processors with all that fun stuff in them... Triock91

Comment by: wetsparks (Nov 18, 2005 14:44) the official specs, for what they are worth are here (http://news.gaminghorizon.com/media2/1115660580.926.html for the 360 and http://ps3.ign.com/articles/614/614682p1.html for the ps3). also @Triock, the ps3 has 512 ram, 512 is pretty standard for all games right now. but i think that evilh0ly is right just wait for the ps3 and nintendo revolution to come out, find out which controller is more comfortable and which has the better games, especially since you know there are going to be bugs and glitches with the first installment of all three systems that need to be worked out. |

Comment by: nuttin_88 (Nov 19, 2005 18:52) well i'm not a computer whiz but the good thing about computers is that unlike consoles you could keep upgrading their hardware to make them better so eventually they wil be able to emulate those consoles. |

Comment by: wetsparks (Nov 22, 2005 12:32) you knonw triok, these next gen aren't really as strong as you are making it out to be. a 3.2 ghz processor and 512 ram plus whatever graphics card they will have. it won't cost the thousands you say for a equivalent computer and for five hundred which you think it will be sold for ($399.99 at walmart for the expensive version) you could get a decent computer that would be close to equivilent to a ps3 or x360 |

Comment by: Wreckage (Dec 10, 2005 12:16) I personally prefer PC before consoles but if I had to choose between XBOX and PS3, PS3 all the the way.
To the young boy: chill out. |

Comment by: jmjjls81 (Oct 02, 2006 19:38) well this is the first comment that i have ever made and i just couldnt resist. everyone is raving about the ps3 and how its going to be so much better than the 360, well yeah your pretty much right. But you also have to think about this, the 360 is only the second system that microsoft has come out with. The ps3 is the THIRD system that they have come out with in order to surpass the xbox. let microsoft work with this system a little more and well see which system is going to be better (XBOX 360 of course.) Microsoft has been making things like this for pc's a lot longer than sony. You tell me who has more know how! and if you want to have a system that will blow away both xbox and ps3 then dont be a tight ass and have a computer shop build you a custom computer. not only can you do more with a computer but you can also play a lot more games on it and have much better graphics. i was always telling people to stick with xbox untill i decided to try the pc. i wont play on any console now and the only reason that i would consider buying one is cause i have a 3 yo son that could play games on the console better than trying to play on the pc (hes 3 and can play BF2 on my computer).
Sytem specs. - 3.2 p4 w/HT, 3 Gigs pc 3200, 200 Gig SATA, GeForce 6800 Xtreme 256 MB, Samsung DVD Burner and DVD Rom. All this for around $800. (i guess being a pc tech and owning a computer shop helps too though.) |
