Toss all the old Xbox games?
I have read quite a few articles about the Xbox 360, but not one answered my only question... will the new system play "old" Xbox games? Every article talked about the improved graphics (no duh, what a shocker... a new system is better than the previous version!!!), etc. and raved about it, and then failed to mention wether or not my $1500 worth of games would even work on the damn thing... brilliant! Even the Xbox 360 website is useless... unless you want to watch a green glowing dot circle endlessly. Retards. The reason I got a PS2 was it would play all the older titles too. The only reason I got an Xbox in the first place was because I won it from Taco Hell. However, it is a great system & hooked me on Halo. Oh, well (unless one of you know the facts) I guess it'll remain a mystery.
LOL you people crack me up.
Ok I am not saying I know everything because I dont. For starters reason why (course being read and heard) that not all xbox games will be backward compatable because the 2 systems being xbox and 360 house diff video cards and they have tro pay royalties to other party which ends up costing MS more money.
Now about one system being better than the other. I guess it depends on your prefence. I love all 3. Why you ask because they are diff, yes graphics are better on xbox games than ps and GC but I have seen ps2 games i.e God of war have waay better graphics than most xobx games and well is sad but a lil game on GC called RE4 blows most of the games ps2 and xbox away. No havent played Re4 just seen from afar. You cant really say these graphics are good sure with right set up they will be good but and correct me if i am wrong developers usually dotn get the full potential of the console until years after its released. Even more so when the company comes out with a new system. So choose what you choose but dont act like a fanboy down playing the rest.
As far as the revolution... Well as nintendo says we are ok with being 3rd we are more about innovation than sales. ya thats pretty smart to me why waste money trying to be #1 when u make just as much being #3.
Ya cant wait for all 3 to come out myself but may have to go the whole buy one and ebay it to help pay for my own unless a certain someone <cough> wormgod can hook me up with his discount :)
edit:: oh ya and as for sony loading crap on ppls pc u cant hold that against SCEA 2 diff things I am sure icrosoft and ninetendo have done same thing, Oh and so not to leave out sega will blame them to because i know they have done something wrong.
mech assault was pretty bad ***...
as was halo, but thats all that really appeals to me on xBox CURRENTLY. I can't say that one will be better than the other currently, but I have a friend at epic who isn't telling me much, but betting his arse that PS3 will blow the doors off the xBox 360. And he's an xBox FANBOY HARDCORE. I for one will play my friends 360, and wait for the Revolution and the PS3 i have way to many GC and PS2 games that I love, and that new Revolution controller is going to rock hard.... I'm betting there will be some sort of HMD released for the Revolution before it's all said and done... can't wait to play zelda with one controller being the shield and the other being the sword.. HOLY! I am impressed with the xBox though, it's nothing to sneeze at, but it's aimed more at PC gamers who want a console. I would own all three if i could afford it.
My PSP, DS, GC and PS2 will have to hold me over until then... he he he.
I can't believe I'm saying this (being a mac fanatic) but in all fairness it really isn't microsoft trying to screw anyone with the backwards compat thing. They went from x86 architecture to powerpc for xBox360 and it's extremely difficult to pull off that emulation.
that being said, I Hate microsoft, they SUXXORS!!!!!!!!!111111
he he.
