I recently saw pics of the new XBOX 360 Ehibition where they were demoing the games. Unfortunately for Microsoft the XBOX 360 consoles were duds and the games were running from 2 G5s. ha ha

Why is that funny? That a $300 console coming out next year is as powerful as two $2,500 G5 towers?
um...ha?

well if you have an exhibition to show off your new console dont you think it should work??
or would you rather use your competitors boxes to run it??

I see you're not a technologist, so I won't bother explaining to you how this stuff works.
$5,000 hardware running a $300 console's software. yeah..wow..Apple is definitly kicking M$'s ass.

you dick bgheen your missing the point., 300 or 300000 dollars makes no difference.
it doesnt work and they have to use their competitors hardware to do it. a big round of applause for Apple and thumbs down for MS
pfffft

dude, he is looking at the overall scheme of things....
I wonder if there is a way to hack the processor on the console and hook it to a hard drive to make it work like an actual computer....
I wish I had the dough to figure that out

he maybe looking at the overall scheme of things I'm looking at the fact Microsoft exhibit a console that doesnt work and they rely on their competitors product to do it for them.

i think the point is that they are passing off a xbox360 by using a different machine...
I could say I have a new console coming out and use a couple of g5's... where's the difference?

message board fights...yay!!!

while you guys are all looking at this post, i put up some new work..haha
- bgheen0
Do you guys think games are programmed on the 360 itself?
They all use Dev centers..which are just computers. Who cares what they run the demos on? it just proves how powerful the 360 is.
Chances are they only have samples of the consoles from the flextronics plant...nothing to run software on. They'll have real demos soon.
There is no way they'd showcase a system that they aren't confident will WORK come release date. They're not Nintendo.
