Koop dan gelijk de Xbox2, volgens een maat van mij wordt hij in jan 2005 geïntroduceert, dan wordt ook gelijk bekend gemaakt wanneer hij uiteindelijk in de schappen ligt.
Hij komt iig eerder uit dan 2007.
Maar je hebt idd gelijk over de spellen

ps2 had in het begin idd veel vettere spellen, maarjah nu is het contract van Sony met die spelmakers voorbij, en kunnen die lui ook voor M$ spelletjes maken. xbox2 krijgt ook ATI kaartje ipv nvidea

ook weer een klein pluspuntje.
Xbox2 ligt in de winkel nadat de ps3 er ligt zodat microsoft de specs zwaarder kan maken en op die manier mensen over de streep te trekken(het werkt wel). Waarschijnlijk is microsoft ook wel benieuwd naar de blu-ray disc technologie die de ps3 naar verluidt gaat gebruiken.
Sony hopes the move will help jump-start the market for the new high-storage format.
TOKYO--According to Kyodo News, Sony officials announced today that they will use Blu-ray Disc technology in their next-generation console, most commonly referred to as the PlayStation 3. Sony revealed its decision at a press conference held by the Blu-ray Disc Founders (BDF), an organization committed to developing and standardizing the next-generation optical disc format. The BDF also used the occasion to announce that it will finalize the specifications for the read-only version of Blu-ray Discs (BD-ROMs) by September 30.
Sony has been investing heavily into Blu-ray product development and was the first company to have a disc recorder on the market. The company had previously hinted that it may use the format in the PS3. Sony's Blu-ray Disc R&D division chief Kiyoshi Nishitani commented in an interview with Asahi PC magazine in March that the company would like to establish ground in the Blu-ray Disc market by adopting BD-ROMs for its "home video game console."
The Blu-ray Disc Founders organization is composed of Sony, Panasonic, and 11 other major electronic makers. Like its predecessor, the DVD, the BD-ROM will primarily be used for movies. The companies plan to start marketing Blu-ray Disc playback machines (without recording capabilities) by the end of the fiscal year.
Sony is relying heavily on the Blu-ray Disc format, so the use of Blu-ray as the market standard in next-generation media is vital, especially since the company also publishes movies through its Sony Pictures subsidiary. Adopting the Blu-ray Disc for the PS3 should help spread use of the format, similar to what the PlayStation 2 did for DVDs.
Early expansion of the Blu-ray format would be ideal for Sony, considering it will have to compete with high-definition DVDs (HD DVD) in the future. Blu-ray Discs can hold 25GB on a single layer and 50GB on the dual-layer discs, while HD DVD discs--which have yet to be released--will hold only 30GB on a dual-layered disc.
Sony said it will reveal more details on the PlayStation 3 at a premiere event in Japan on March 31, 2005. The console will also be on display at next year's E3 in Los Angeles.
