XBox 360 launch on MTV tonight
Microsoft has a 30-minute show, hosted by Elijah Wood (weird), to launch the XBox 360 on MTV tonight. I know, I hate MTV, too. But they're going to show some games (which are currently under development) for the first time, and the project I'm on right now is one of them. I wish I could tell you the title, or anything about it, but I can't. Sorry. To be honest, I don't even know what level of coverage we're going to get. We sent them some footage of the gameplay, but we don't know how or when it'll be used.
The show will be on at 9:30EST tonight.

Damn NDA's.
I've heard the new Xbox doesn't have a hard drive. Can you verify this?

New XBox
I was checking into this a little bit ago, and as I remember the first version to come out won't have a harddrive. However, there will be a version w/hd, but it won't be released until a later date. I think there was another version with even more features, and it would be released after the hd version. I need a new Xbox, mine has problems reading disks . Hopefully they fixed that on the new one.

i see a lot of Sony bashing on NASIOC for some reason, but almost every consumer electronic device i own is a Sony, and nothing has ever broken or given me trouble. TV, computer, several car stereos, receiver, DVD, VCR, CD, MD, PS1/2, bookshelf system, telephones, alarm clock, etc.
XBOX won't have Gran Turismo, GTA is always a year behind for it, and i ain't buying both systems.

I agree Sony makes good stuff, but so does Panasonic, and Magnavox, and Sanyo. Sony just charges more for what you get...

I totlally hear you guys about the PS2. I love that controller and I have a lot of PS2 games. But, if nothing else, Live and a lot of proscan support really converted me. Well, that and I always hated developing for the PS2. Sure, it can push the polys - but that 8k texture cache...what were they thinking???
I wish they had shown the 360 controller on the 'launch' show. It's much better. I'll leave it at that. I am pretty disappointed that they spent like 15min on Perfect Dark and gave 3sec each to about 20 other titles. Mine is Saint's Row, but if you missed it I wouldn't be surprised. I almost did. Bleh... Ah, well, E3 is next week.

Also, you say XBOX lacks a GT4, well sure it might not have a GT4, but it does have a Forenza, which even though might fall short on car selection compared to Gran Turismo, but feature wise it offers most of what GT4 promised and then some. Great games come in many varieties to don't have to execute the exact formula of one successful title, that is one of the concepts of the game industry such a progressive industry and home to much creativity to say the least. I admit though I do have a Sony radio alarm clock not to mention three juke boxes that are still going strong, one from 1987. So this goes to show you can't expect the same results of every product from a particular company. The XBOX360 might not be totally innovational in the hardware department, but once more like the first XBOX, Microsoft has managed to excell when it comes to features. |

got my PS2 the day they came out, used to drag it to work on the weekends in a duffle bag, and play it for pretty much the whole weekend, and its still working fine. i'm not a Sony fanboi, but i just haven't had a problem with anything of theirs i'ved owned, and i usually like their features.
if the new XBOX will play all my PS1 and PS2 games, i'll consider it. i was told it won't even be backward compatible with old XBOX games.
