I realize that they had the special of it on MTV earlier tonight, but I fell asleep, and woke up around 5 minutes after it went off. Right now, the most impressive 360 games to me are Possession, Condemned, and Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion. I truly can't wait for Oblivion.

Well, you know MTV, so it'll probably be on a couple times tomorrow. I know it's coming back on at 1:30 2nite, and.....I don't know of any other times at this moment.

The thing about this generation of consoles is i dont think it makes as drastic of a leap as ps1 to ps2 and xbox, its hard to say now but that is my initial thought

I missed the MTV thing, but have been reading a bit online. I think i'm in love:

Xbox message boards across the 'net were fired up this morning over allegedly leaked specifications detailing Microsoft's plans for Xbox Live on their next-generation console, and specifics on the hardware itself.

[quote name='Jamie_B' date='May 13 2005, 02:22 PM']You can also stream your music from your PC to your xbox, or plug your Ipod in directly, no more having to rip the CD.
[right][post="92020"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post][/right][/quote]

Holy ****. I could just plug my iPod in? That would be AMAZING! I can already imagine playin all my fav Wu-Tang and Public Enemy songs with out having to burn them into a cd, and THEN put them in my Xbox. I hope we can kinda... trade songs with people. That would be kickass.

EDIT: On another note, the MTV show sucked. Just go get your info and vids from Gamespot or 360.ign.com. It was just typical MTV BS. Hardly any footage, and alot of stars and people and some crappy band playing. I just like my footage without crappy preppy BS, thank you.

[b]Perfect Dark 0[/b] -the vids and screens shown of PD0 at the MTV show and such were supposedly still the Xbox build. Here's screens of it with 360 upgrades

[b]Kameo: Elements of Power[/b]- check out the detail on the horse, and look at all the creatures on screen at one time. Truly a graphical achievement. Just beautiful...

[b]Ninety Nine Nights[/b]- supposed to allow over 1000 independant characters on screen at one time as of now in its early build. The devs plan to have at least 2000 by the game's release. All of them are highly detailed. Fuck World of Warcraft, this game will be the shit!
