WTF? X-Box looks nothing like 3DO. You are only saying that because someone else said it in another thread. Have you ever seen a 3DO? I you had you would lnow that the only resemblance is the color.

You fanboys amuse me.

Well GC-PS2-DC-XB, you seemed to get really fired up about the facts when pushing X Box to its limits and comparing it to the PS2 according to your knowledge. And I understand that what you have posted so far are to straighten up the "bended" facts mentioned earlier. But still, you have to admit that everything you have said and all those figures mentioned are still your assumptions of facts. The real facts are the hands of the makers and within the X Box itself, which is still light years away from consumers\' grasps. Heck, the PS2 is already here and can anyone tell me the REAL maximum pps if you push it to the limit? Now how about X Box?
And by the way, here\'s the order of the consoles that have and will come out; DC-PS2-GC-XB and how about the order in terms of POWER; DC-PS2-GC-XB, where do we go from here? Hey, it\'s just natural that the younger the age of a console, the more powerful it\'ll get. And I have to admit, PS2 is waaay below X Box\'s reign of power, I\'m not a fanboy but I still buy PS2 and so did the other 4.5 million people. Hmm.... I think I\'ve trailed off a bit from the main discussion here .
Now GC-PS2-DC-XB, one question, how sure are you about your theory?

Damn, I thought this thread died when it left the main forum.  I\'m surprised to see it so huge in this area though.  I should look here more often, it\'s pretty hilarious.  I mean, this thread actually called for the return of Docwiz, LOL, hilarious.

This thread was in the main forum? Hmm.. didn\'t notice that, Oh well.

Time will tell if XBox is all that, or if it is just another wannabe pretender to the throne

Toxical, don\'t bring back old topics.

Oh.  My.  God.

Now, I\'m not even going to debate tech specs in anyway shape, or form on this board.  However, What exactly does all this mean?  300 million to 125 million... sounds like a big hit before graphical enhancements and such.  I just wanna know exactly what this means to people who are looking into getting an X-Box.

Xbox never has been able to do 300 million.  Microsoft never put out that number publically as a realistic number.  Thats raw polygons that won\'t be displayed and does not count.

Lets start at 110 Million, this is with no pixel shading, but with normal shaded polys with two textures.

110 Million is possible if you do a PSX game with two textures(ie no dynamic lighting, No pixel shading, etc..)

Microsoft reduced the spec from the original 150 Million polys to get more Xbox GPU\'s out and for stability (ie heat).

Honestly, it does not mean much to me, the hardware is there for the future and we will see some games with a ton of polys coming over the next few years.  I mean DOA3 is a first gen game, just imagine what can be done in four years!

The hardware is there for the present and future and the games are the most important aspect here.
