I thought the same thing...maybe we should try a write in campaign to bill Gates!

At this point Gates could get with Dolan and just start over, there's just no way to rescue Rainbow 1 it seems.

Also the current Xbox played movies at 480i, and while it could play games at 1080i because of hardware limitations the graphics had to be scaled down or less polygons, so while it looked sharp there were all of 2 games that decided to use it.

480p and 720p games did look nice but again, because of limitations there were few. The Xbox 360 is supposed to surpass PCs again as the king of the graphics, with DTS/DD5.1 gaming, 3 processors, and all games in 1080i with more detail than current games.

There's an Unreal 3 demo video running around, that is supposed to be only for high end PCs and next gen consoles. There is also this Dark Sector or something like that game video out there that are simply breathtaking.
