Zodiac Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Just a word of mouth I heard. I did also hear that Microsoft wants to add a better graphics card in the 360.If they do it'll kill the portability factor in the 360, the NVidia GTX 465 I just got is acctually taller than the reg 360 much les the 360 slim and takes up about a Quarter of the space. So expect the case to be bigger and weight a lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEORGIAfan Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 this is why i love non portable consoles. buy a device in 05-06 and still be using it a decade later. you dont get that with technology these days. phones are out of date within 6months and computers are usually old after 3ish years.

The 8800 GTX and Gts came out in '07 I should know that's when I bought my Alienware, and the card I had in it before this one was a 8800 GT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threepac Daddy Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 its really hard to keep up with technology right now, new and better stuff comes out every 6 months. gotta love and hate these days when it comes to tech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cable Guy Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) Sony's Technology...not gonna happen.I did not know this. So can you answer this question please so I know. How is Blu Ray Sony's technology and why XBOX can't use one?The only thing I can find about this topic is that Sony is part of the Blu-Ray Disc association and MS is not.

So can you answer this question please so I know. How is Blu Ray Sony's technology and why XBOX can't use one?The only thing I can find about this topic is that Sony is part of the Blu-Ray Disc association and MS is not.xbox can use it, but they would have to pay licensing fees to sony. not something you want to do with a competitor.

HD is like 4-6gb per 2hr movie. having a 250gb cap or 150gb cap is gonna be reached and surpassed very quickly if we do not have physical media. same with games. if you had to download all your games.

With companies like Amazon jumping on the streaming bandwagon and pushing it I think that will take over within 3-4 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you live in the Mountains of Colorado, there aren't alot of high speed providers (some places, there are none), and I doubt any company wants to close off that line of revenue.
