I really dont expect them to make it to the stores I just want to add an element of compitition towards this whole homebrewed console wars craze. Beacuse I would acctually like to put my console to the test with others .. sooo think about it .. I think it would be fun.

A small scale console war would be fun actually, i'd like to see who can be most imaganitive and creative with their ideas.

hmm, I may be able to do the hardware for myself if the software became reality.

I have the choice of three bords, all are pretty small

1 Gigabyte PIII 668mhz 200mb Ram 20gb HDD 3xpci 1x agp
2 Dell PIII 1.0ghz 128mb ram 20gb HDD 2x PCI 1x agp
3 IBM/Gigabyte 666mhz, 64mb ram 20gb hdd 3x PCI

Mobo no.1 has no onboard graphics/sound but has a network card
2 has Onboard Video/Sound and networking
3 has onboard video and sound.

if the software became a reality i would put one together and put a PCI/agp Graphics card with Tv-Out

I think that games should be minimum 350mhz PII and run smoothly at 500mhz.

Omg, I just thought of a game. Sim Game Company. Like you have a game company, and you have to create game ideas, build studios, work on advertising, make a console, etc.

they already have a game like that, not quite sure about the name but I think it was on IGN

Just about all the major game reviewers have a joke about such games. One that comes to mind is Sim Sim, a simulation in which you have to create a simulation game.

I got the elecronics taken out of the computer, took me an hour. (Compaq HATES people opening their computers...) And its all aranged in a space saving manor. So far my prototype features an 8.44 gig hard drive, a cd drive (x16 i think) and a broadband modem. Will post pictures tomarow and I accept a console war simply because it might increase interest in our consoles.

I have a 450 Mhz k6 on a mATX mobo, so we may be seeing something from Joes2silly

So i say that we have that we have 6 months to complete a prototype console, and we will have to have a pannel of judges that woud be able to put are consoles against each other. and we are aloud a team as big as we want... do you agree with this ? they can be changed still there not set in stone yet .

Help! I was cleaning dust off of the motherboard, when I noticed that a fan was totally caked, so I took the fan off, and now it wont go back on.

It was on by four screws, and now it doesn't seem there's anything for it to screw into.

If we were to program our own OS, it would very well be a console.
If not, The the PS2 is Not more than a computer.
Anyone want to make a linux based OS that resembles something of a xbox 360 OS or ps2 os?

Edit : My fualt, sorry.
