Xenon specs leaked

19Nov2004 [gaming]

There's a document with Xbox2/Xenon specs doing the rounds, supposedly leaked from MS. Specs look attractive, although there's obviously still some confusion about whether XB2 will be a games console or a Media Center. (ie, a Media Center would need much higher specs than those shown here)

• 3.5GHz PowerPC
• 256MB Memory, for normal RAM and Graphics (sounds a little low)
• 6GB storage
• 6GB DVD - doesn't sound like they're going for gen2 (HDDVD or BluRay)

Looks also as though XBox(1) games will have to be ported and/or emulated in order to run on XB2
