[quote="Sgt. Duffy":775a3]I can only get a console if I get all A's in all of my classes.. which, actually, Im really close to doing, unless I bomb the next math test, which I have done every month since the beginning of the year...

1) Some people say it'll cost $70-$80 (even $90 I heard, but that's unlikely) per Next-Gen game. No way am I paying that much for a damn game. Think about it ... over $200 for 3 games. I'd never pre-order a game again.
2) I hope it will be backwards-compatible, since I might plan on selling my Xbox before X360 comes out to help pay for the cost, but I want to keep some of the games (since I don't think I'll be buying many new ones that the price they're hinting at).

Good to hear that Xbox Live is free now ... and that the DVD remote will come with the 360 instead of having to buy one seperately.

Xbox live is not "free" with the 360. If you listen closly to one of the vids the guy says something along the lines of:

Everyone will have xbox live when they purchase the 360, with sort of a 'bronze' package. You can browse content, get updates, and chat with friends. Then a user can purchase an upgrade, or 'gold' account and have access to multiplayer features.

Yeah, just read [url=http://www.gamespot.com/features/6124293/p-6.html:9dbc0]this[/url:9dbc0] again. Mustve missed that part...

sony always say their consoles can do this and that then show off all these amazing tech demos and when the system is released they look nothing alike and are pure crap. they did this with the ps1 the ps2 and no doubt the ps3

Read that yesturday. Not surprising... The 360 is pretty much a triple core mac. What else are developers going to design the game on?

Better than the PS3 which has no working unit and not even a real tech demo.

On a different note, check out the specs on the 360's graphic core. http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=Nzcx

Pretty impressive. 48 pixel pipelines with a max of 96 billion shader operation per second. To put that in perspective... The X850XT only has 16 pipelines and can only do 5.7 billion shader ops per second.
