Microsoft may have a potential hit on their hands! The Xbox...
Now I'm not trying to be biased against Nintendo, but the Xbox may eventually be the top video game system in terms of technology and performance... Here are some of the stats of this "ultimate" gaming system:
Four game controller ports that allow easy multiplayer gaming and enable other peripherals, ranging from game pads to voice-activated headsets (ohh... wow, 4 players; I've already seen that on Nintendo 64!
A front-loading DVD tray (same as PlayStation 2; nothing important...)
A multisignal audio-video connector that allows for easy hookup to televisions and home theater systems
An Ethernet port for rich, fast-action online gaming via a broadband connection (bad news for SegaNet subscribers...)
An NVIDIA graphics processing unit (GPU), delivering more than three times the graphics performance of other consoles (bad news for Nintendo...)
An Intel 733MHz processor, the most powerful CPU of any console (clocked at speeds of over 700; twice as powerfull as Nintendo GameCube)
An internal hard drive, for massive storage of game information — a first in the console gaming industry (this means you don't need memory cards anymore!)
So according to the specs, it seems that Microsoft Xbox is going to beat the crap out of every other video game system... Uh oh, prepare yourself, Nintendo lovers; this is war!
Mama mia! It''s-a me, Mario Maniac!
