...I cannot wait for Halo 2...It will have the best graphics of anygame, ever, and is the most anticipated game, ever, plus....It will break Halo 1's world record of selling over 1,000,000 copies in less than 3 months....No game for any new generation system (PS2, GC) will match or beat Halo 2 for it's graphics, gameplay, sound, and all out jaw dropping awe.....here are a few "early stage" pics of the game: http://halo.bungie.net/site/halo/featur ... ots02.html ( Halo 2 will be out...hopefully...by January or February of next year ) I CANNOT WAIT!

of any game. I hope you mean consoles only, because no new generation console system has 6x anti-aliasing, like the Radeon 9800 pro. computer games will always have better graphics than consoles :Hey, that's funny.:

Trust me Pep, no computer game will match Halo 2's graphics for a while because it is on the world's most powerful system, the Xbox, and if you do not belive that you can take a look at the 2003 Guniess Book of World Records, half a page has the Master Cheif right on it, and the Xbox is also known as the "Computer In a Box" :Hey, that's funny.:

it mmiiigghhttt beat a stock computer, but the system makes up 4/5's of the game <_< does the graphics card in your x-box run on a eight pixal pipeline architecture with 2nd generation Visual Processing units running on a 256-bit memory interface? I Don't think so, because the Radeon 9800 Pro is the only one that does. not only that, I can overclock and mod mine to improve performance even more. Heck, I can over clock the entire system. What does an x-box run on, maybe 700mhz? try a 3.06ghz processor in computers. yuo pwned ^.^

You know why? because Microsoft is so cheap, they just put a Win 2000 PC with a modchip inside a small package and called it a video game system. You can run Linux on it even. If you don't believe me, click here: http://xbox-linux.sourceforge.net/
This is also why pepper can compare it to a PC. There is no megaheretz power translation needed, like there is from PPC to Pentium. That is all because of RISC and CISC, and the PPC has RISC, meaning that each instruction it does takes less time.

Something I noticed is very odd. The smilies changed, but the Admin CP was not access since May 7. This is strange. I'm going to change it.

It's 800*600 actually. Most TV screens are like 320*240 or 352*200 or something like that.

if there was a concole that could upgrade its OS, processor, memory, graphics card, and video card, I would buy it. Oh wait, what am I saying. I already have one. A computer :Hey, that's funny.:
