Will GameCube be better hardware wise?? Probably not but Nintendo will be better game wise, at least I think.

hehe my words of wisdom have done you well:D

In the editorial I try to show how Xbox's specs seem better on the surface but were really just getting raw figures. More raw figures than what we've seen with Sony and look at it's performance. I think I went a little overboard on the technical side but I tried to cover it all with fact and rational opinion.

Because the xbox has more power is the key to succes. Developers want to make a game that looks great. And if they can get better graphics on the Xbox, I think they choose for the Xbox. But, I could be wrong. But so far, There is a good game line up

Did any one here read the interview with the DOA3 developers? Some one told me they said that the GC and PS2 couldn't handle the graphics in game play that they got out of the Xbox.

I just thought the AI part was odd. The developer of Halo said this>
- Chris Butcher convinced AI characters to give you a yelled warning when they toss grenades, and gave them the brains to dive out of the way when a vehicle tries to run them down.

Just something else I found

- Marty saw, and more importantly heard, a demo of the real-time Dolby Digital 5.1 sound capabilities in the Xbox, and was very impressed and eager to get it working in Halo. He and Jay are busy recording alien speech this week. According to Joe, the finished game will have seven or
eight thousand distinct lines of combat dialog (that doesn't include speech outside of combat, such as the dialog in cutscenes), which works out to roughly 160 phrases per AI unit.

hehe halo will rock

but Project Ego Will rock a lot more

I agree that PE will be good. I just thought it was odd about what that guy said about the AI in games on the Xbox. He didn't support it with a link to what game developers where doing with AIs on the GC.

[pathetic board]

he a moron so we dont really need to answer him

when i think of it their all moron so why are we answerwing

[neodragon]

I didn't say he was a moron. He may be confused. Just want to know where he is coming from. He says the AI will suck. It sounds like they are doing some good stuff with Halo.

And as far as what the X-Box can supposedly produce, it really sickens me what they have said. The stats given were raw numbers that accumulate to nothing.

Well, so far I haven't seen a game on the GC that looks better then a game on the Xbox. And the NV2A is faster then the Flipper

Highest framerate on the Xbox +/- 1000 FPS
