    An article in today’s Boston Globe suggests that games won’t really take advantage of the Xbox360’s hardware for a while – and they use Halo 2 as an example of this phenomenon. (This isn’t really news, I don’t think – it’s common sense – but maybe folks just aren’t thinking about it enough.) Thanks, Hanchen…

  • Advantage: 360

    TeamXbox compared Halo 2 running on an Xbox360 through an S-Video cable to Halo 2 running on an Xbox through an S-Video cable – and they were pretty surprised to find that there’s a sizeable difference. Their results suggest that Halo 2 will look better running on an Xbox360, no matter WHAT you’re playing it…
