A worthwhile read on PC/Xbox differences
Over the past year or so, since Halo for the Xbox was announced, a large number of people have publicly worried that 'the Xbox is just a PC'. Response to this has been either agreement, or some vague 'it's completely different, due to the way the Xbox puts the pieces together'... but for the first time, a poster to our forum, katokop1, has laid out some of the real differences between PCs and the Xbox, and explained why some of the reasoning of the first group is faulty. Check it out - we may have to add this info to the FAQ. (Louis Wu 17:40:56 UTC) (permalink)
