Las, THANK YOU! I'm glad I'm not the only one out here(there?) that thinks the 360's graphics can be accomplished by pushing the current X-Box to its limits. Hasn't anyone played Tekken 5 or God of War? That's pushing console limits.
Here's something I read in the latest issue of Game Informer: In an interview with J. Allard (everyone's favorite bald Microsoft gamer geek) he said that the 360 cannot play current-gen X-Box titles unless you have a hard drive.
Quote:
So the first Halo, or any Xbox title, won't be backwords compatible if you don't have an Xbox 360 hard drive?
Yeah, it won't work. Backwords compatibility is going to require a hard drive. We've been talking a little bit about la-la land, and saying, "Maybe there's someday that [an Xbox 360] doesn't come with a hard drive." Actually, the very first one we sell is going to have a hard drive. It doesn't mean that the hard drive is always going to be attached. The owner can take it to a friend's house, and the other people [in the owner's house] can still use the 360 to play games.
