I think I'll be getting a PS3. That thing was unimpressive. Sony's got a better rep of good games on their system.

PSP pwnz the market right now, hands down.

The article said that it has liquid cooling so i see a high price tag coming. i wonder if the games will cost the same.

The particular PowerPC CPU in the Xbox 360 has 1 MB of L2 cache and three cores clocked at 3.2 GHz each. Each core runs two threads for a total of six.

Nice article, it's nice that MS has put 3 USB 2.0 ports on this console. Definitely a good move if you want to make it a Multimedia center.

Well, the lead FF guy went to Microsoft.. so FF will be shit now :drool:

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.
