Okay, so far we know there is one with and the other without a hard drive. And that the X-box 360 runs on windows. Now my question is, can you change it so it runs on linux and such? This question probably pertains mostly to Unyo since he is a computer wiz.

[aotsukisho]

You probably can, although I know neither the hardware or software specs of it. Someone will find a way.

Although, if I got one, I wouldn't take it apart until maybe six months or so after I get used to it.

[Kurama (Reinitiated)]

I am sure there is a way to make it run on linux especially since it technically a big coputer lol

[djSL]

well, since you can run it on the original xbox im sure its possible for this system as well, hopefully , it would be really great if they integrated linux into the consoles gaming capabilities as well. because for the original xbox once you have linux running you cant do anything else until its shut down, it should be able to multi function. of course this is if linux will ever run on the xbox. lol

[Kurama (Reinitiated)]

ok assuming from the title this isn't jsut about linux I want everone to know I dedicate my life to xbox 360 and I will keep it with me at all times in a glass case and stare at it for hours....

Anyways anyone like what they see about the system I can't wait to play perfect dark and Project Gothem 3

[djSL]

wait isnt project gotham 3 out for reg. xbox??? sorry if im wrong. i just want to play all the new games that come out for the system. even older games from the original xbox, its supposed to improve the fluidity alot. i love the console, if you read the specs youll se that its better than my comp!! my comp sux!! its a dell desktop with a centrino processor. sorry back on topic, since i cant afford one in the near future i just want to touch it. *rubs* lol

[aotsukisho]

Did the X360 get released yet? I read Kurama's AIM thingy and it says it was released three days ago. ^^??

Anyway, I'm still not planning on getting one. Xbox and Forza/Halo2/Guilty Gear are just fine for me. Well, that plus my lack of cash. Does anyone want to get one for me?

[gba_fan]

rofl i will! if i win megabucks... its supposed to come out this week i think but i doubt it...

[Kurama (Reinitiated)]

I don't know how you get three days ago from my profile unless you mean when it shipped and yes mine shipped early oh yea MINE IS COMING TOMMOROW I am wicked excited and you probably won't see me until this weekend anyways can't wait its MY LIFE BEEN COUNTING IT DOWN FOR MONTHS

Oh and for anyone who doesn't know it comes out the 22nd tommorow but if you haven't preordered one you won't be able to find one so good luck

[gba_fan]

OMFG ITS COMING OUT 2NIGHT!!!(actually midnight)I SO WANT IT, SOMEONE WANNA DONATE ME 400$???

[aotsukisho]

Triple-core CPU, each running at 3.2GHz (two hardware threads per core, a VMX-128 vector unit each, and 1MB of L2 cache per)... 512MB of system RAM (rofl, more than our home computer gba), 20GB hard drive (shouldn't be too hard to upgrade... heh heh), DVD-ROM drive (with support for ALL existing optical media), 3x USB ports (two in front, one in back), and a custom ATi (damn, they switched from nVidia) GPU running at 500MHz (but there's only 10MB of memory on it?), 48KHz @ 16-bit sound card with 32-bit processor (over 250 audio channels, over 300 decompression channels, damn!!) and WiFi capability of course.

Specs are awesome. If someone manages to stick Linux on one, I AM GETTING ONE.

Maybe in five years though. When the price drops below $150.

[gba_fan]

whoa, in hilo, the 360 was sold at midnight...and bought out by morning... o.O

[gba_fan]

lol suxorz to be u... seriously though...can someone lend me $400? plzzzz

[katsu]

[gba_fan]

what? that little? whoa, no wonder they sold out so friggen fast

[aotsukisho]

Sheesh, that's kinda retarded. Isn't 'reserved' supposed to mean 'you guarantee get one'? Oh well, it's a business and not a charity... they'll let em go to the first one with the cash.

By the looks of things, Kurama has been quite busy with his new 'Box...

[Kurama (Reinitiated)]

[Sayonara]

My friends just got the 360 and the Halo 3...they enjoy waving the box (yeah, they brought the box to school to prove they bought it) around my face. I haven't actually seen them play but they keep drooling or going nonstop about it though.

[katsu]

[Kurama (Reinitiated)]
