one of the big problems my buddy came up with was how to use Live across both platforms. Honestly, he had no clue how they were going to do this. I informed him that I would be upset losing my "name" on Live if they come out with a different version for Xbox2.
FYI: MS is keeping the development VERY compartmentalized. My bungie buddy has only ever seen a G5 with a suped up graphics card. To him, that is the Xbox 2.. My other buddy is in charge of "producing" the 3rd party games MS publishes. So, some of my info will be off because my buddies themselves are working off of rumors, even in the MS offices.
Hulk: I agree, MS would be committing suicide if they stop supporting Xbox and Live for Xbox when Xbox2 comes out. However, as I stated above, it won't be cost efficent for them to run 2 Live "services".
