I was on File Planet a day or so ago reading about NeXtBox or Xbox 2...whatever you would like to call it. It seems like Microsoft is making their new Xbox alot like ps2 which is disapointing, I understand the reasoning with them being a for profit company but I hope they dont forget the old Xbox fans...I personally love almost everything about the xbox. Sure the ps2 size is nice but if you dropped it off a table, itd go bye bye. Xbox however is tough as hell. Also the first Xbox controls were awesome! They fit in my hand perfectly and I was upset when S controllers started being basically the only ones sold, although the S controllers are still pretty nice. On Fieplanet they said Xbox was thinking about replacing the black in white buttons with shoulder buttons, but I hate shoulder buttons, especially the ones on the ps2 controller. Also they'd better stick with those damn triggers! Gives a much better feel when your shooting a gun. So many people in Japan hated the size of the Xbox so they are supposedly thinking about taking out the hard drive. I think that would be incredibly stupid because the only reason the Xbox sold is because it was different. Also I hope to god its backward compatible, but I'll live if its not. Overall it sounds like its gonna be a kick ass system but it kindof sounds like they are only thinking about the people that did NOT buy it instead of the old Xbox fans that loved the system...

oh ya and go Halo 2
