Well that will have been decided already surely? I mean they have to develop it on the new format or the current format. I doubt they can change it all half way through.

I thought it was cool. It's probably 3rd on my list of all time consoles.

You make this sound as if it's a pathetic point and just an excuse for other companies to use, where as I would see it as a huge flaw. I just couldn't see a console not having multi-format games.

I must admit that I was linked to it myself and have never been interested in the XB myself.

The basic jist was that they would have a gaming console. With raw specs but good gaming ability. Then a second (more expensive) "computer console" which was basically a pc purely for gaming. Ie. loads of Memory, suposedly better graphics etc. Then a third, a media-centre, which was supposed to be a mix of the second, with it's increased gaming ability, but also be able to play DVDs, CDs etc.

In short:

1- Games console (£200+)
2- Advanced console (250-350)
3- Media centre (500)


Be warned though that I heard about all this last month and that I may not have repeated it completely accurately, as I lost interest straight after I read it. As for a link, I'm sure you can google it.

No, because there are no longer any games being made for the N64.

No, but if he asks for 5 good GAMECUBE games why are you listing DS games? You wouldn't list Xbox games, or N64 games, or GBA games, or PS2 games, would you?

'Cos obviously two products from the same company - nintendo - should never mix.
