mayamaniac Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 no, they're using G5, or POWER PCXenon (notice the spelling) was the codename for this second generation X BOX Xenon != Xeon (which is an Intel CPU) 585820337[/snapback] i think the rumor specs that it will be using a multi-core powerpc chip. Current Apple G5 don't offer dual or multi-cores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amradiar Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Or they could do plug 'n play cases like cell phone covers. 585823250[/snapback] it has been said before that they were trying to make the console have quick covers, (skins) that you can change to your liking...

b mitchell Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Now that the memory card shot it out, no one can say the designs are fake anymore, and thank god. Cyranthus, that means you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryne Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 I'm already thinking about buying this new version (did not like the xbox very much). If it is backwards compatible (or has a version that is backwards compatible) I will definately buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

estranged Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Im thinking it would be better not to get one at launch.. think of the versions of the xbox.. you've got from 1.0? to 1.6? unless theres another version after that.. last i heard was 1.6 anyway. But yeah, it just seems more wise getting a later model, you may get a better drive and stuff, like with the xbox's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo003 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I already decided when I going to buy both system, First will be xbox 360 1 Year after it's release date and PS3 an year after I buy xbox360. That way I am covered if there are flaws in the original series & might get cheaper too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeni Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Price drops are almost certain within the first year, much like with the original Xbox. Another thing of note to wait for would be bundles, as they are always good for saving cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
