Pros: We won't know till we get there. Cons: We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
Microsoft wanting to get into consoles was no surprise to me. When I heard about the X-box, rather than saying "WTF are they doing?", I said "WTF took them so long?" I knew it was only a matter of time before Microsoft got their...

Pros: 733 MHz Processor
64 MB of Ram
4 Controller Slots
Large List of initial games/developers Cons: Not as many games as the PSX2. The system may not succeed outside NA.
In this article I will review the X-Box's Hardware and Software. Just incase your wondering about any of the facts I have used or have not been able to find accurate up-to-date information I have provided them below.
First is the hardware...

Pros: Impressive specs Cons: It's just a PC
If you tell me that the Xbox is not just a Windows PC then you are kidding yourself. The thing has a Pentium processor, a harddrive, and even runs Windows. If that's not a Windows PC, then I don't know what is.
Am I going to get an Xbox when...

Pros: Powerful System, assuming consumer system is as good as Microsoft promises. Cons: Lacks killer apps, and system selling games thus far. 3rd party support could use some work as well.
Okay, so the system isn't even out yet. I'll have to admit, that the system specs are impressive...but just having the best system specs just isn't enough. People have been comparing the X-box to Sony's PSX when it launched in 1994. Both companies had...

Pros: Great graphics, tremendous potential, ease of use. Cons: Long term reliability unknown.
This review will not bore you with a lot of useless statistics and technical facts you can find anywhere. Instead, it is an unbiased opinion of the game system based on my own experience thus far as an XBox owner. I have no bias against the Playstation...

Pros: Raw numbers are impressive. Early screens look great. Cons: Not even the developers have touched a production system.
My 6/3/01 update appears at the end of this article.
There can be no argument that Microsoft has the ability to assert itself into any market it wishes. Microsoft has such a vast “Cash” resource that there is little most companies can...

Pros: Built to Last, Great Controllers Cons: Loud Fan, Poor DVD Quality
I recently purchased an xbox because it is considered to be the 'next' level of gaming systems. Also because my 4 boys were nagging me to get it 'cause its cool Dad'. So I plopped down my $300 and took a chance. I was a little disappointed.

Pros: fast!, AWESOME GRAPHICS, AWESOEM GAMES, 4 player, high resolution, DVD, need I say more???? Cons: PRICEY
Ever since last year, I thought I wanted a PS2. A friend of mine has one and I enjoyed it...I thought I would get one. Then I heard of the xbox and its features for the same price and decided to wait...I'm glad I did. PS2 is a good console with alot of...

Pros: Most powerful console yet... Good games predicted, built in hard-drive Cons: high priced, must be bought in a bundle set when preordered, just a cheap computer
OK.. I dont have much to say about this "console" but Im gonna say it anyway. First of all, yes it is true that the system is the most powerfull one ever put on the market, but will the games be any good?.. if not then there is no way it will survive...

Pros: Can't think of any.. No one's seen THE ACTUAL X-BOX in action. Cons: The whole KIT AND KABOODLE
Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls.. LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!!! The console wars have begun! I have taken a long, hard look at all the consoles ready to compete, mainly at the X-Box and how it compares to the rest.
Right when I saw the...

Pros: Lots of developers, easy to develop for, great specs Cons: PS2 has a head start.
Ahhh yes, the much debated XBox. Many think that it's vaporware and that it will be just like the M2, or 3DO, or the Jaguar, or some other failed system, but I don't think so. Here's why: Developers, Developers, Developers.
Microsoft has made a...

Pros: Lots of processing power, not bad speculated price of 300 Cons: can X-Box deliver some good games or just some flashy graphics and PC ports?
The SEGA Dreamcast, Sony PS2, Nintendo Gamecube and the......Microsoft X-Box? Yes, Microsoft has shifted its view from computers etc. to Gaming consoles! Does Microsoft have the power to dominate the next-generation of console wars? With the X-Box this...

Pros: 6 face buttons on controller Cons: D-pad is horrible, system is huge, games none to impressive
Well, now that CES 2001 has come and the Xbox has finally been revealed here are my opinions that I know you all value so much.
First impression: the console is HUGE. If you use the DVD tray as something to judge the size by the system is...
