(RUMOR) - Xbox 360 Beta Kits Released?
Rumors on the web are today suggesting that developers are starting to receive the Beta kits for the Xbox 360, although this is yet to be substantiated by Microsoft. The game demos at E3 2005 are now known to have been running on single-core Alpha development kits, and were therefore running at only a third of the full power of the finalized Xbox 360, but the new kits (if they have indeed started to arrive) will now allow developers to realize their game’s full potential on the next-gen console. With the Xbox 360 coming in less than six months, the clock is ticking as the race to complete a raft of launch titles continues unabated. We’ll have more on the build up to the launch of the Xbox 360 shortly...Source: http://www.totalvideogames.com
