"ASK THE TEAM (Sonic and Bonus)"

Hey, it seams clear from the millions of posts me and bonus put on today (I put on about 60 and counting!), that between us we know everything about hardware... resolutions, 3d engines, buffers, I/O specs...

So if anyone has any technical questions post em here... and if you know the answer to posted question answer them... it's not just me and Bonus who will post the answers!

BTW, I have not consulted Bonus over this topic... he has no knowledge of it... until he reads this!

YEs... the Xvox will be good. It is made by the team made of people who have been in the games industry since before Sony. In order to make the console a sucecs this team simply asked developers "what aould make u develop games for the xbox". They then made sure that all the answers were included in the hardware...

At the same time they asked consumers what they wanted. Answer like "Consoles like the DC are too loud... esp when u are playing resident evil and all u can hear is 'woosh, woosh'". So MS have made the xbox really big, and packed it with sound p[roofing.

So they have done far more research than u think

I threatened mine with

The reason is that there used to be hard discs and floppy discs. The floppy ones are the 5 inche jobs that were actually floppy... the other ones were big round discs that were made of very hard material... they were so large that when u swapped them (because they didn't store much room) you'd need 2 people!

Hope that helped u

Like the PS2, it will take exactly one year and one day for the PS2 to start to overheat... just outside the warranty period.
