Nobody ever wants to go on strike, any more than employers want a lockout. It's the nuclear option, used as a last resort.

"I actually bought it for my PS3, and the graphic quality seems pretty good to me"

On a GeForce 7900 Modification. I've got the GeForce 7950GT with double the RAM. Why could I not play this thing at minimum 720p with a steady and decent framerate? Why do the minimum GPU specs show nVidia GeForce GTX460 as the minimum GPU when it's running just fine and looks just fine on a freaking piece of hardware FIVE GENERATIONS OLDER?

I have huge parties. Being able to entertain everyone at once is quite handy.

I already use 60+ ports for my camera rigs on my musical instruments, why not for controllers? Let's see, I've got NES to USB, Genesis to USB, PSX to USB, a few regular thrustmater and firestorm joysticks, couple flight sticks, wheel/pedals, and a lot more.

I could easily knock 127 devices out with just my every day stuff.

"but lets be frank - all AAA games shipping to date don't have the quality of textures required to saturate even PCI Express 1,"

Let alone AGP. I think we're just now saturating that bus entirely.

" a pc couldnt make halo look as delicious"

What? The XBox used a modified GeForce 3.

Just after Halo was released in November 2001, the GeForce 4 came out.

The GeForce 4Ti series ran rings around the Xbox's modified GeForce 3.

"There's no practical limit on the number of USB controllers you can attach to one PC"

Yes, there is. 127 per USB controller.

Meanhile, the end result doesn't look THAT much better than the PS3, with its measly GeForce 7900 series.
