Microsoft is going 2 announce its project Xbox 2 to the world @ the next E3. Xbox 2 is dominating @ best

wat i mean is that next generation of home entertainment there doin DIY graphix chips and mainboards, and now inclduing HDTV support and making it the centre of your home theatre, with such features as TV Recording, Dolby Digital 7.1 surround sound, inbuilt DVD player (not as in Xbox 1 where u need 2 buy a dvd playback kit).

But only downside it is using a Windows NT Kernal to support the OS, (knowing NT is going 2 unstable) and with profit losses because of Xbox Modding, which enables 2 copy games 2 the harddrive, microsoft are inpleting New Piracy Protection into their motherboads so that specific models of hardware will only work on there mainboard (but no doubt this will be bypassed. Luv dem modders).

They pissed off Nvidia, and have decided to make there own grpahix chip, so you'll be lookin @ the l8est in 3d technology. (Yeah Right).

And are impleting PC to Xbox Lan Gaming, so you can play games between the Computer and ure Xbox 2 Console. (Very Kewl!!)

Aniway these reports are very early so i can't animore stats dan dat.

Joshu thinks Joshu'll hook up a rig to his TV if he wants to play DVDs with surround sound, etc. Xboxes might be awesome cool, but computars are awesomecooler.

If Xbox2 manages to innovate with better USB-based devices (such as a custom Nostromo Speedpad, for instance) than gaming, then maybe consoles will become worth something for playing FPSs.


I still won't buy it :D no competition, a monopoly on a system. I can get a gaming rig for cheaper because it's got competition. Thoughts?

I'd have to agree, modders are awesome.

it took a while but it was only a matter of time till they figured out how to mod the XBOX, speaking of which i better get one ...

Dude. I have installed xp pro (as in, whore) 5 fucking times on this one machine. No over clocking, no bell or wistles. nothing. p4 1.5. i never opened the box ot fuck with it. using real xp disc. boot using cd. goes to install, checks HDD n all that crap. gets to the setup screen

BLUE SCREEN OF I ALREADY HAVE YOUR FUCKING MONEY SO I DONT GIVE A SHIT IF THIS WORKS OR CAUSES DEATH

.....wtf?

fine. 5 fucking times. no scratches. they really wanted xp on this machine, so they went and got the copy off their relo down the road. Again, this was a REAL CD with no dirty arsed big scratches.

try again

BLUE SCREEN OF I ALREADY HAVE YOUR FUCKING MONEY SO I DONT GIVE A SHIT IF THIS WORKS OR CAUSES DEATH

...w....t....f....?

okay. doesnt like the hardware i take it. i procede to tell these people this, and put 98se on it. it goes in

hooMUTHERFKINray!

it runs.

i try put xp over the top of it.

BLUE SCREEN OF I ALREADY HAVE YOUR FUCKING MONEY SO I DONT GIVE A SHIT IF THIS WORKS OR CAUSES DEATH

.......WTF?

other disk

BLUE SCREEN OF I ALREADY HAVE YOUR FUCKING MONEY SO I DONT GIVE A SHIT IF THIS WORKS OR CAUSES DEATH

fine. deffinately doesnt like this hardware. even if it is stock stanard from IBM. fuck you. i borrow XP disks for a few days.

standard, non copyed, non dodgy version. it has the holofuckinggram on top.

i procede to use this on a machine that had xp installed on it. this machine caught a bad case of bonzai buddy.

format. insert XP disk 1.

BLUE SCREEN OF I ALREADY HAVE YOUR FUCKING MONEY SO I DONT GIVE A SHIT IF THIS WORKS OR CAUSES DEATH

fine. insert disk 2.

BLUE SCREEN OF I ALREADY HAVE YOUR FUCKING MONEY SO I DONT GIVE A SHIT IF THIS WORKS OR CAUSES DEATH

BIG. FUCKING. CHIRP.

yeah....xp's good......as fucking good as anything else....... i hate this shit.

thank fk i havent paid for this buggy POS this time. i HAD TO (i thought i better underline this) HAD TO buy win95 with my p120. sieg heil, mein feurer Gates. really got ripped off with that. at one stage, i reinstalled this total shitheap OS 15 fucking times ..... IN ONE FUCKING MONTH!

sometime later, my grandpa hears about win98, and how its oh so much better.

and unfortunatly, buys it.

......

ive been told by my therapist to never talk about the first 6 months of using 98se. lets leave it there.

i evently get used to the stupid shit that makes it fall over.

-=later on=-

XP is out for a few years. I goto LAN 69 with new machine. geuss what. new hardware WONT WORK WITH XP BECAUSE MICROSHIT HAVENT ADDED NEW PATCHES!!!

FUCK YOU AND YOUR GOLD PLATED LEXUS BILL! RIGHT IN THE EAR!!!

I, after much cursing and swearing, install xp. everything is in a diffent fucking places for no particular reason. fuck it. it falls over if i dont have the right drivers of for everything. well fuck you too. i learn to hate this version of dos with boxes too.

why is it that there is a million different installs of XP around?

home, pro and......and... some other shit that probably as retarded as a special olympics team. Or Ash's english teacher. or Ash. mleh. there also seems to be 15 fucking installs of each variety too.

why are software vendors so unkind?

i severly want to switch to a *nix, but if i lan and dont have a game installed and disks are at home, i cant just copy the folder off someone else.

fuck this.

....

oh.... MIE... or Internet explorer as these MSfags call it now..... how many fucking holes do they want to write into it? how slow you want to make it? screw it, i didnt even now how slow it went til in installed Mozillia FireFox. webpages run 3 times quicker. no shit. no popups. no retarded wait 5 minutes for it to not find that page, only 10 secs.

i hate you MS.

be luckly im not over there in yankie land to graffiti your sign EVERY FUCKING DAY.... damn.... almost calmed down....

all in all...
