id have to agree with u thinkin that about the pics...but i just watched some trailers on some of the xbox games...and they're like 10x better then the pics to tell u the truth, quake 4 looks like a reallife type of thing just instead ur in first person and actually controlling it. i swear im dying to get that game.
some people say its not true but do u agree that doom 3 looks way better on pc then it did on the original xbox? lol
lol wo those ppl that say it looks same as the old xbox are freaking stupid. i just read up like 10 reviews on the video for the systems and it gives a comparison on them. the original xbox only has a memory of 64MB...thats lower then my pc which is pretty sad. and the xbox360 has a memory of 512MB which is 4x as much as my pc. dude not many computers at all have 512MB memory lol. That's a hell of a video card.

I beg to differ; mine has 1024 MB. 512 is pretty much the bare minimum on RAM these days. The new Windows, when it comes out, will require 2048 MB to run stably.
I'm not talking about physical DDR RAM. I'm talking about Video Ram. They don't make Video cards with 1024mb of Video memory yet. Unless you have a drop on the market, which I would love you to share with the rest of us. Oh...and the New Windows? Requires 512mb of RAM to run on, *not* 2048.

Oh, thought you meant the system memory, my b.
And Windows Vista, yes, will require 2 gigs of RAM to run in its full potential. Lesser systems can get away with a gig. The bare minimum is 512, yes, but it will run so cruddy, it wouldn't be funny. Never judge on minimum requirements.
it takes 2ghz for OPTIMAL performance, but that much memory is unnecessary and a waste of money. Vista will be plagued with all the annoying little bugs that all of Microsofts OS's have when they're first released. 512 is recommended, not required. for superior performance, 1ghz is sufficient
some of the tech forums say that for the best performance, 2ghz is what you need...then they go on to say that it's unnecessary to run the operating system.

r u going to believe that rather then "microsoft.com"? microsoft.com is the makers of the program lol. besides i just asked my friend which got it like 2 weeks ago and he says this....
<Ç®äzëÿ_§hädöw > alien how much ram is recommended for the windows visa
<Ç®äzëÿ_§hädöw > vista*
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> uhm
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> 512

On the MS page, did you not see:
• RAM — PC systems should have 512MB of memory or more.
512 being the bare minimum, yes, but not recommended. It will run Vista, it won't run it well. They wouldn't say that on the Microsoft page, so no, I don't really care what Microsoft has to say. You'd think they would've looked to see if any companies had patented the Vista name, or that they'd actually make XP complete before they started on a new project. I guarantee with 512 ram, one will not have an enjoyable "Windows Vista" experience.
well..my friend has vista and it works fine...so im not gonna go arguing bout it anymore...u can waste your money on more MB RAM if you want...my friend only has 1 gig of ram...
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> lol
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> i have run xp
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> sucessfully
<Ç®äzëÿ_§hädöw > how much MB RAM do you have?
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> with 256
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> i have gig
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> but i have run it 256
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> vista
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> takes less rescources than xp
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> atleast it manages them better
<Ç®äzëÿ_§hädöw > lol so it should run smooth on 512 mb ram?
<°°_À£ìéñ2 °°> itll run fine on 512

K. Most newer games don't run well on 512 ram these days, I don't see how you expect it to run smoothly. Just because Microsoft babyfeeds you doesn't mean it's fact.
