General Gaming / XBOX II demo

I did watch the demo and I was not impressed. Given that the demos always depict what the system is supposed to do on optimal conditions that is why the actual games will never get to that level of detail. Given that I don't see how the XBOX 2 can claim is the most powerful console in the coming second round.  PSX3 and GC2 are more likely to come up on top. Right now my bets are on the GC2 because of ATI, the CELL processor for the PSX3 seems powerful but complicated, it can give a big surprise, I just ruled out the XBOX 2, what I have seen can be achieved easy with a high end card, and a nice computer. I didn’t see anything out of the ordinary, at least by today standards.

Sorry Billy, It looks like u are about to lose more money, on this round too.
