Re: Xbox 360 pic

Re: Xbox 360 pic

It was stupid to move this thread, as if discussion about the release of popular new game console belongs in hardware and tech support.

gg, gg

btw if anyone here needs tech support with their xbox, especially the 360, go a head and send me your console and I'll promise to look after it.

Re: Xbox 360 pic

Looks terrible imo. So did the old one tbh.
Black/Green isnt an appealing colour combo for me, and off-white is worse imo.

you have to remember that the requirments of a dedicated game console aren't anything like that of a PC. Despite people saying how much like a PC the Xbox and no doubt this one is, they've been tweaked and customised in such a way to maximise efficiency with the existing hardware. PC games on the other hand could be running on any given hardware architecture, which means they have to trade efficiency with compatibility to widen their player base.
