Mad People try to claim that Flipper is the ultimate graphical architecture. NVidia's GPU easily outdoes Flipper, for a detailed investigation of Effective Texture Bandwidth on both platforms, read this: http://www.segatech.com/technical/consolecompare2/index.html

I didn't read most of it, but one think that really ****es me off about Microsoft is how they keep bragging about the XBox's CPU.
XBox may be better than GCN is some ways, but its CPU is not faster.
it's Pentium 3 based, whereas the Gekko (GCN's cpu) is PowerPc-based.
A 485 mhz PowerPC would absolutely destroy a 733 Mhx intel Pentium 3.
tests have shown that G3 400 mhz are faster than P3 1 gigahertz, so imagine how much faster a 485 powerPC would be than a 733 Pentium 3.
The reason for this is that Intels are CISC, while PowerPC's use RISC processors, which are a lot faster.
I don't know which system is faster overall, but the CPU alone, of the GCN is a lot faster than the XBox's CPU, and it ****es me off how Microsoft tries to show off with their higher numbers.

so...
Gamecube = Macintosh of consoles
xbox = Winbox of consoles
ps2 = a sony trinitron Wega television (i dunno!)
heyyoudvd, i don't think it was a powerpc chip that was faster than PIII chip. it was a G4 400 that was faster than a PIII 900 (or something like that), but i know it's G4 and not powerpc.

Pftttttttt you contradicted yourself again.
of the GCN is a lot faster than the XBox's CPU, and it ****es me off how Microsoft tries to show off with their higher numbers.
wait, doesnt higher numbers mean its better....
