Looks like the Microsoft has been doctoring some of the Xbox "screenshots" they've released. Check these discussions for more info and evidence. I'm not a big console freak but I just thought this was pretty over the top for Micro$oft.

LOL, that's some funny sh!t right there. Even if it is doctored up, it's still not a very big graphical leap over the PS2. Isn't X-Box supposed to be 3X more powerfull then PS2?

I'll still probably get it though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] .

I could care less about the power. What would make me buy the system would be low load times. Sometimes I think the PS2 is even slower than the PS1 in terms of loading.

Actually Bill did go on trial..... Well his company did. The trial that started the blowup of the tech boom. And your tax dollars paid for it.

I wouldn't blame the blow up of the tech boom on that trial - that trial had been in the pipe for years, and years, and years.

A bunch of companies trading at 100x earnings having never made a profit, or even established a viable business model.. there's the reason for your blow up. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I wasn't blaming the trial for the blowup of the tech boom. That would have happened with or without the trial. The trial just sped it up, IMO.
