If xbox can play DVDs then it can handle those graphics..


There we go, so you are a PS2 fan that is crying over the fact that they can't get Halo 2 unless they get Xbox. and Bungie is owned by M$ so they would release it for PS2 anyways

i dont think they could make another xbox that soon.. i mean c'mon, out of all the consoles i have, the xbox is the only one with no problems what so-ever. of course it could handle it, it could handle like jdkfjaklgjldjfkajd gigabytes of memory... i've only heard this as a rumor, but isn't the new xbox kind of like an expansion of the old one, exactly the same but with new features.... im not sure but i heard you can buy a game or rent a game and actually save it on the xbox.... correct me if i'm wrong...

i hav a feeling that my stupidity is showing in this post... but they dont make underwear for that kind of thing...

[color=white]I've said it in like 5 posts now. ;D I saw it on G4's "Pulse". That was yesterday. Then I was watching some other show on that chennel today and it had the phrase scrolling down at the bottom of the screen as sort of a "New news" display thingy. But I do agree.. I would like Microsoft to say it themselves. I'm only telling you people what I've seen.. and I don't think G4 would lie to us. ;D[/color]

And just because you see the controller S doesn't mean it's the Xbox from now; have you ever really seen the Xbox with the TV on the webcam, for example?


Ummmm lets see, because so far the specs for Xbox 2 says that its not going to be reverse compatible, and I don't know of any other systems that use the S controller, plus in one of the updates he was talking how they had one of those display things you see in stroes where you can try out games, in their hallway so hmmmm.


LISTEN CAREFULLY! HOW DO U KNOW WATS IN THOSE CASES?! COULD BE A FREAKIN TURBO GRAPHICS FOR ALL U KNOW, so how do u know its not an xbox 2???

its not that they lied, its just that they only know as much as ms has told them, and do u think they'd tell G4 before telling the press at E3?

Hmm one answer to end it all. Xbox 2 is only in the development stages so they wouldn't have a "real" one yet.

Maybe you should lay off that Smirnoff Vodka Drunk Monk

You know just as much as I do about Xbox/Halo most likely. Translation: you should know that MS hasn't released a damn thing about release dates for the Xbox Next; it was all from G4 and other "speculative" sources.

And yes, I would consider G4 speculative

[color=white]Fine. If you all don't believe me, look around on the internet and look up XBOX 2's, also called Xenon, release date. From what I saw on G4, it looked pretty convincing that it will be released Holiday 2005. Halo 02 will be Fall 2004. That's a year to make a possible Halo 03 game (which I think they'll do to boost sales).[/color]

LIke i said, all a developer needs to know is the specs

After that, they can develop without the actually packaged system

How do you think launch titles come about?

  • 05.10.2004 7:14 PM PDT

bah

I'll answer your question, considering I saw very little helpful content on the first page of responces. When Bungie takes those screenshots, they freeze the universe, remove the camera from its location, and then they take 4 screenshots and patch them together. Take the image and reduce its resolution to 640x480. That's what it will really look like.

Oh so I suppose they can play it out of thin air if they have the specs?, they whats with the screen shots in past top stories showing them playing Halo2 on Xbox? or is that their specs?

First off Halo 2 is gonna be for xbox not xbox2/xbox next/Xenon. There is many facts that shwos you the truth. One of them is that its coming out fall. And the Xbox Next wont be out by fall, that im sure of. So why in the heck would you want a game that you cant play for another year? That's stupid. Secondly, i think there was 1000 Microsoft employes that got a copy of a xbox live halo 2 demo, with 2 maps. Now what makes you think 1000 Microsoft employes got Xbox next's. Thirdly, Bungie has been working on halo 2, two months after halo 1 was out. And Xbox next wasnt even planned out or planned at all at that time. And you would think magazine's that went over to Bungie Stuido's would say something about not playing it on a regular xbox. Fact is Halo 2 is for Xbox, and will be out this fall. So you wasted time even thinking about it being out for Xbox Next. Nice try though, you got alot of posts.

This whole stupid thread could have been avoided if you'd looked at the FAQ...

Q - What systems will Halo 2 be available for?

A - Halo 2 is being made for the Xbox only at this time.


This question has been asked before... and the answer is XBOX... get over it...

In HALO the graphics were not the best because they were rushed and the extent of the engine was not entirely known. Now that Bungie has worked indepthly with the Xbox they are using all its power to use HALO 2

Here's an idea, ignore this thread, can't you see that derek is an ignorant moron whose tiny brain can't possibly conceive an answer other than the one that he thinks is right?

The xbox CAN handle it! Riddick has set the bar for graphics on the xbox. If the 'box can handle that game then yes, it will absolutely be able to run Halo 2.

Get the new OXM and play the demo of The Chronicles of Riddick then come back and tell us if you think the xbox can handle it.

If only Riddick had the smooth flow of Halo gameplay...
