I sincerely doubt that's what it'll actually look like. That's probably a fake for starters.

yeah

remember the prototypes for the first xbox? i remember seeing one that was a big crome X with a glowing green center. looked sweet, but it was a concept, not the actual design model

that thing actually looks quite fake really.

To be fair... I'm not a PS2 fanboy... I REALLY want a gamecube...

I just really don't like the X-box... I hate the console, I don't care for the controller, and to date there is but a single game on it I want to play.

I'm trying to lose this PS2 Fanboy-like status. If Sony suck, I'll tell it.

No one knows where Resident evil is going. Most likley it'll be on GC and PS2. Capcom relised that the should also be on the Ps2. In case you've been hiding under a rock since october 31st Resident evil 4 is heading to the Ps2. besides, everyone knows RE started on the Playstation. RE5's been announced, no consols named. the exclusive deal ended with RE4. the game can go where ever it wants, like i said, it'll be the 2 consols.

That X-box 2 to looks to wierd. like they'd need something bigger than the VCR thats already out. they might as well call it a computer if they go with a size like that.(i know it's not real)

Baldor's gate isn't exclusive, it's on the PS2 as well. i've played them.

I doubt that is the real thing.

Hmmmm, my reasons for wanting a Gamecube are growing less and less hearing that

I don't like X-Box pads, I tried playing Hitman, the pad ruined the experience. Its like MS looked at a PS pad, squinted their eyes and decided that way

I wouldn't really say PS since those are smaller than an X-box controller. Dreamcast controller maybe. that thing was insanly hugs. I've used and X-box controller a couple times...i think it's bigger than a dreamcast conroller. Bigger isn't always better.

We know that it's not real.

That would be weird if they made three types for x-box 2. wonder if they'd do a voting thing at E3. lol just like a car show. the winner is the one that'll be produced and sold.

its something pretty sad. A Console without a harddrive, a console with the hard drive and then A PC verison of the X-Box.

Plus i dont see the prob with the controllers grant u i have big hands and its prefect for me. I think i liked also every controller apart from the PS Dual Shock one, i liked it with it but i dont like it with it. Also what i like about the X-Boxes, Dreamcasts and the Satuarns Nights controller they have trigger buttons what i love

Making a PC version of an x-box is pointless. I have a PC, thats better than a PC x-box version.

I hate the lack of sensativity on the controller though... or int he case of the triggers, too much sensativity.

"What? You only want to jump slightly so you have a better chance to getting someplace without problems? Lets jump fully!"

"What? You just tapped the tigger, not enough to really fire? Here, let's fire off some rounds!"

FUCKER!

In the electronics market, Sony is a bigger name. Sony deal with CD drives, Hard-drives, Sound systems. T.V's Speakers. Pretty much anything that is small and fiddley. MS deal in what? OS's, small computer chips that fail and the X-Box. All they have done is paid people to develop parts and hire comapnies to develp the thing.

Sony have thier own team on this. Playstation were making consoles when MS were just developing windows 98.

I agree with Will about the pads, on that, They are dodgey...wtf is with the idea of making the anologue sticks that far appart? Like I said, they looked at aPS pad, squinted there eyes so everything went funny and drew it down, threw a trigger in and a black and white button and called it a day.

bah!
