wtf.

those are so damn big, might as well go buy a pc and stick it in your living room.
Well, I suppose if you can find a PC running on 3 PowerPC processors and a graphics core not yet released for PC's, than yeah. Otherwise, you're stuck buying mister big-brick.

I'm currently not to impressed with the 360's games, though. Quake 4, well, that's already available for PC. The game just uses the Doom 3 engine. I have yet to see anyone make use of those super-awesomer system capabilities :?

there will probably be a total of five games that take the software to a higher level in the entire life of the XBOX360. don't hold your breath

well k if you realy feel the need to portablize that thing i'll tell you what to do. 2, 6, or 4 6volt motocycle battrys with an inverter might last long enough to hit the boot screen.
