random question for the 360 people here:
what does it mean when your 360 starts beeping on startup, when it starts loading the game? its like a single beep, occasionally it beeps twice. :confused:

Complex Gaming: PS4 Development Kit Details Leaked, Specs for the New Console Are Intimidating
It looks like some of the details for the hardware and software specs for the PlayStation 4 have made their way online.
The PS4, codenamed Orbis, is expected to be officially announced in January and then debuted later in the year, most likely at E3 in June. Developer kits have been sent out and some of the details of the new system have been leaked. Here you go:
"The dev kits are based on AMD’s A10 APU (Accelerated Processing Unit), which combines both the CPU and GPU in a single unit.
Sources add that the PS4 will include the AMD Radeon HD 7670 video system, based on Turks XT architecture, featuring a 128-bit Bus and GDDR5 1GB of GDDR5 video memory. Each unit will come equipped with either 8GB or 16GB of system RAM, as well as Blu-ray and 256GB hard drives. Sony’s goal, say the anonymous sources, is to run games at 60 frames per second and 1080p resolution."
Solid information or total pile of crap? What do you guys think?
I sure hope the hard drive is MUCH bigger than 250GB for retail.

Seems like kind of a weak card for a system that wont be releasing for at least another year.
Hope they don't pull a Microsoft and force you to buy their own branded hard drives while charging $150 for 320GB. :smh:
It's most definitely a weak card. If that's what they plan to put "next gen" games on, I feel VERY bad for the PS4 crowd.
Based on the benchmarks ran at this link using Skyrim at 1080p on medium settings they were barely getting 25 fps using various video cards in the same area as the purported video card setup that the PS4 plans to use.
That's pretty atrocious considering I can run that game at 40-60 fps in 1080p with no issues at all with everything turned all the way up (and I have a MUCH worse video card than what they plan to use and only 8 gigs of ram instead of 16 gigs).
Sounds like a REALLY poor cpu choice by them, unless something is DRASTICALLY optimized compared to it's current PC counterparts.
720 to include blue ray and kinect 2.0 and a port to record live t.v.

There's no freakin' way Micro$oft pays $ony the money needed to include a blue ray player in the 360-2. It's not happening. They'd lose money on the first two years, easily between the costs to pay for the rights and the cost of the console.
I remember reading a report long ago that the reason Microsoft supported HD-DVD was to prolong the adoption of Blu-Ray until they could perfect digital distribution. That's the direction Microsoft really wants to go to.
As the distribution of games goes more and more towards digital, I see no need to worry about discs anymore. Hell, every game I played on my 360, I installed to the HD because it ran faster. Give me the whole disc on the HD and I'd be happy (not that I'm gonna buy a next gen console probably ever).

Just to add to this discussion
:smh:
If they are truly going to pay $ony for their blue ray patent, Micro$oft is more desperate than I thought they were.
Not going to believe anything til it comes from the horse's mouth.
:deadhorse:
March? No way, lol. Unless you meant March for an announcement. That would be possible.
