When consoles ditch the single handheld unit controller, and find a much more fluid and less restricting input... I'll start investing in them. I'd be very interested in VR, too...

3 USB ports.. use a keyboard and mouse...

You can do that?

Haven't we learned that gaming is the one things that do NOT benefit from multi-cores? Unless those 2 cores are just there for WMV encoding, there is really no point. PS3 has a better design with 1 core and many vector units.

The 48 pipes is probably half pipes, like how the NV40 can do 2 Z or color ops, and have 2 shader math units per real pipeline. At least this gives away that the R520 will have 24 pipes.

Apprentice is on. The 1/2 hour Microsoft ad will have to wait. There's only 5 minutes of content anyway.

I was trying to capture it but my audio isn't working for some reason. My picture quality isn't that great anyway.

But we already know the specs...

Those are leaked, and quite a few people here *cough*halik*cough* believe the specs are complete BS. We don't have 100% confirmation if they're true or not. At least the XBox Live S/G system is confirmed.
