Default The only thing that can make TSC give up Halo 2.

XBOX-2

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=6766

It's been known in industry circles for months, but the news is now finally starting to leak. You'll be able to buy the next generation Xbox in both America and Europe in 2005, say experts.

I wonder what the specs are going to be.

This is old news to gamers. I'm a bit more excited about the PS3, though it looks like Microsoft will get the jump on Sony this time.

Word on the streets is that the XBOX 2 won't be nearly as impressive as the PS3... Apparently Microsoft has realized that they need to tone things down so they don't lose money on every unit sold anymore.

It's been suspected for a few months. The news is supposed to hit big at E3.

HD optional = lame

The xbox developers had been using the HD to allow games to run faster. I hope whatever solution they've come up with is a good one.

I didn't know virtual ram made that significant of an impact for video games.

Can you please explain to someone who used to be really into video games what the deal is with the PS3 and XBOX2? I stopped really caring about games after the dreamcast went under, and only bought a PS2 because I was hella bored after getting my wisdom teeth taken out. I still haven't gotten around to buying an XBOX, but all my friends with their NES/SNES/Genesis libraries of emulators make me want to get one and chip it.

I have heard some BS that the new xbox will have an updated version of Halo 2 saved to it, apparently this Halo 2 will be V2.5.

I swear if this happens I will [censored] throw something.
