*sigh* I don't know why people keep flaming this damn console, just because it's made by Microsoft, and that they will be big competition, a lot of you people out there don't like it. When are you PS2, and GCN lovers gonna learn that the XBOX is going to knock out all existing consoles. And i can guarantee you that people right now are disagreeing with me, in more ways than one. One of the reasons i could guess would be, "But Nintendo are the BEST for original games!", well, technically at the moment, yeah, but whats to say the XBOX won't have more original games? I mean, you really don't think you can compare Nintendo's originality to Microsoft can you? Ha, hahaha. This is Microsoft's first go at creating a games console, so you can't say they can't do original games. And you can't substitute PC games for that statement because these are totally different developers. There are at least 900 developers already working on the XBOX. Another thing, I read a post earlier saying that the XBOX is just a PC in a box. Let me get something straight, technically, EVERY console is a PC in a box if you look at it that way, and also that person said that they were gonna release Word, and Excel, etc. on it. That is complete and utter *BS*. There are currently no plans, i repeat NO PLANS for Microsoft to make the XBOX like a PC. They have confirmed that they have no plans to release a keyboard for it, as it would make people uneasy about the console side of it. All i'm saying is, give Microsoft a chance with this one, you don't know what they can do in the console world. And i don't know why people hate and flame Microsoft SOOOO much, after all, a majority of you run Windows right? So what are you going on about?

Spelling Punctuation and grammar - Spider neglects this, so do not take abuse from him :D

FOG = Future of Gaming. Back in ye olden days these forums were divided - many popular ones too, but now the two main ones are the FOG forums - this is the chat, the other prime.

It all used to be about the Future of Gaming, and I guess most still is (just some is about more immediate futures).

Smuggler - click on the red link for editing your details so you can include your Tagline where it should be.

Do not worry about Spider. His SPAG is atrocious, so I think he's trying to say you're similar to him.
