I can see a resemblance to Benicio DelToro. Not so sure about the other ones though.

Backwards-compatibility is a novelty anyway. In a couple months time no one will care.

Yeah. Pretty weak reasoning. I wouldn't even trust that Sony will end up delivering half the things they're promising. Comparisons at this point are baseless.

Why does everyone feel the need to compare $1500 -$2000 computers with a $299 Xbox 360? Would you expect a Civic to out-run a Ferrari? Let's compare apples to apples. Another thing to consider is that there are games pushing way more polys than Quake IV and with no problem. That tells me that the problem lies with the developers of Quake than any deficiency of the 360. Launch games are always rushed and imperfect...but take a look at Gears of War and tell me the 360 doesn't have muscle.

Not I. I'm heading out to get one tomorrow morning and if I don't get one, I'll just wait. I'd never pay a premium.
