if u really wanna see what the xbox can do get some xbox only games, meaning they were made just for xbox so they have much better graphixs than the competion ....I recomend HALO!, Midtown Madness 3 (much better than midnight club), Star wars KOTOR, Buffy, Ralisport challenge, and Unreal champianship.
Sorry buddy, still not pushing the limits... just 'cos they're X Box only doesn't mean they are to the extreme. Even the PS2 which is a fair bit older can handle a lot more than the games out now test the system with.

But couldnt you apply the same logic to the X-Box??
When the PS3 comes out developers will know how to get the most out of the X-Box but not the PS3??
BTW what sort of corners do you mean microsoft cut? Are you a third party programmer?
you don't seem to be listening, or reading if you will... microsoft are muscling out the litte blokes in the field and don't deserve such support. I'm not denying the X Box is, a more superior machine to the current PS2, but the advantages of owning one with the games produced for these consioles is still not pushing the limits, why bother... obviously you are taking it personally because you forked out the bucks to buy an X Box, but in the real world, the more the X Box gives you, is not worth the price of a whole new console.
I spend a hell of a lot of hours implementing non-microsift programs to run in the VR enviromnent which microsoft provide with their software, namely windows, and they don't exactly make it easy. They also recycle a hell of a lot of code. Why do you think windows and IE crash so often, they cut and paste way too much.
BTW What the F'k is a third part programmer?????
