ppl keep comparing it to a computer, but its a bit off. I mean I remember the dreamcast was equal to a 233 but there's no way a standard 233 could run those games so well, if at all. I forget what the xbox was equal to but it can easily outdo most computers because it is so dedicated to only gaming, not windows, explorer, aim and all that other crap you got running now. You'd need a pretty expensive computer plus 3d card etc. to run a game like halo smoothly (and thats just a launch game).
and there you have it...

But again you're comparing the cost of a machine that can do one thing and a machine that can do many things.

Anyway, whatever, everyone's entitled to their own opinion on this. Personally I'm not going to pay monthly fees on every game I want to play on a console when I can get on PC and play a ton of fun games online for the only the cost of my internet connection (which I would be paying for anyway).
