first off xbox2 will come out before ps3.. meaning xbox will get more sales..theyll have a at least 12 month extra income period...tis is what happened with the ps2.. it was out 20 months before the xbox was.. and so the ps2 made much more profit then xbox did...but this time xbox 2 will come out first...ps3 isnt planning to come out ill 2006..

i just ate a bannana fly. for fun.i bet its just microsoft building up a hype on xbox2. PC and and Xbox in one? that kinda kills the idea of a console.I totally agree with Bane on this one. If the Xbox 2 promises all that it does, it's not really a console anymore. I feel that there should always be a line between PC's and consoles, but leave it up to Microsoft to blur that line.Oh and Spyke, even if the Xbox 2 does come out as much as a year before the PlayStation 3 does, it would have to have monumental sales in such a short time to keep up with what Sony has already established. Sure, the Xbox is doing well, but if you are talking about Microsoft claiming the console market, I don't think that's a possiblity. Sony has gained so much ground through the PlayStation 1 & 2 that it's hard to say that they are not at the top of the console industry and will continue to be there until they are unseated. 8)

The PS3 will run at like 735mhz (which is what the Xbox 1 runs at now)When I get a chance I will scan my OXM with all the details for the XboxNext.It compares it as this buying the xboxnext is like buying an Area 51 ALienware PC or buying a PS3 and getting an Emachine with a celeron processor :)Also keep in mind Im not doggin' PlayStation as I have both

and plan on getting both again as well. Just stating the facts.

Yes I'm afraid that the Xbox 2 will be > PS3 this time.

Guys....have you seen what the Cell can do yet? Oh, that's right, no one does. We have no clue about this "Cell" part of the PlayStation 3 that is being made by a joint effort of Toshiba, Sony, and IBM. So Des, if these three big companies are working on a joint project that is costing alot of money, I get the feeling that it's at least gonna be better than what you say about the PlayStation 3.So if I were you guys, I would even talk about which system is better. The EXACT specs for the PS3 aren't even out yet Des, so don't jump to conclusions. Sure, the Xbox 2 will be powerful, but you have no clue what the PS3 will be able to do and what kind of stuff this Cell will be able to put out.Plus, since when was it all about graphics? Sure, they help the whole experience, but in my mind, other stuff like gameplay, story, characters, and music take a huge presence over graphics.

Cell Schmell - 2 G5's beetch!

2 G5's is like having a Dual Pentium 4 PC.We'll see what happens, its still way to early to tell of course with Sony lagging behind trying to decide how they are gonna overcome the 2 g5 processors and still keep it in the price range of 199 - 299.Xbox 2 starts out at 199 with no HD and goes up to 299 with the 160Gig HD, why? Because Mr Gates doesnt care about losing money

He could buy Sony if he wanted

Like I said I will have both regardless nut just sharing what I know.
