at e3, microsoft will unveil the new "xbox lite" which is rumoured to be small enough to haul around in pickup trucks and some of the larger station wagons. One executive has leaked the following photo from microsoft's R&D lab:

Maybe if that was funny, or even well photoshopped you'd get a laugh....
:-/
Hope it wasn't you who made it :p
Yak Yak Yak!!!
*sigh*.. Simple tricks like that would probably work on a soap-opera discussion board, but not at cprog :p
Just look at the lighting, you can tell from the chrome of the car generally where the sun is. Then the Xbos... unless it has the ability to bend light, I don't buy it.
Hey, it was a hack job I did at McDonalds this morning.Quote:

:rolleyes:
Well, considering that it basically is a PC, just thank MS that it isn't PC sized. My X-Box fits very nicely in my entertainment center, while my PC wouldn't fit without a hack saw :p
in fact the X-Box is really big comparing to other consoles like PS2 GameCube, etc...
but that's not the only problem with it... the other problem is that there aren't many good games for it, where there are many great games for PS2.
my gamecube is fricken small. it will fit in any entertainment center with zero problems. gamecube rocks!! the picture of the xbox was good for a chuckle too.
Console size doesn't reall matter does it?
None of the console are easily transportable anyway.
Odd it's microsoft again who's the target of prankers...
Gamecube gets smashed by the XBox at ease.
> None of the console are easily transportable anyway.
The Gamecube's easy to tote around - mine even came with a carrying case. Even you don't have a case, it's got that nice handle on it.
I don't own any of the new consoles so I might be wrong but is there any real problem with the size of any of them? I mean it's not like you are gonna take it down the shops with you. If you do wanna take it to your mate's on the odd occasion, provided it fits on the front seat of your car (which they all do) then you've no problem.
In that case the XBox would be easily to move as well, The onlyQuote:

problem would be its weight, and the box is damn heavy.
when my dad got a conversion van he needed to buy a game system to place in it and i talked him into ps2 over the xbox for two reasons:
1) Size
2) Game titles
I love the ps2, and now when hes not using the van i have it : )
Opinion, XBox has Halo,half Life,DOA3 etc.Quote:

Halo's overrated as hell, Half-Life's what, 5 years old?, and DOA3 stinks.
HL owns them both, but i play that on my pc so why play on both. Besides, ps2 owns : )
If you're going to pull the PC in this battle the console'sQuote:

dont stand a change! Emulator....
All I need is Armored Core 3 and Xenosaga, both of which are PS2 exclusives.
not brining it in as a system persay, but more as a comparison to title choice and system choice. HL would not sway me to xbox at all simply because my pc plays it.
(class almost over, later dudes)
Ah, yes. The old console debate. This is like trying to decide what processor is better. There isn't gonna be an end to the debate until one of the companies goes under. (I'd never use an Intel in my desktop and I'd never use an AMD in a server. Nuff said)
Anyway, Saying the PS2 has a bigger list of better games is like saying SNES does. OF COURSE it does, it had over a year of lead time. Anyway, I used to have a PS2, but sold it. DOA:XBV is tempting me to get an Xbox, but we'll see. Anyway, give XBox and GC another year and they'll have a better list of games, too.
> DOA:XBV
I swear - how many people are looking at buying an XBox for a freaking volleyball game? If you're a rabid volleyball fan, then I guess so, but if you're just looking for boobs, there's a whole Internet out there waiting to appease you.
I got an Xbox.
I wish I had a cube.
I'm glad I dont have a PS2.
Pc games are WAY the best still.
I am hanging on to my xbox in the hope of decent titles..i am confident that in time the 3rd parties etc will-rock my xbox.
Wish I had a cube..

You noticed the people playing volleyball in that game? That'sQuote:
