Microsoft x-box

X-Box: Microsoft Enters The Console Market Whilst the majority of us have been checking out the quality of the Dreamcast's initial software line-up and sniffing out the latest gossip on PlayStation 2 and Nintendo's Next Generation console, Microsoft has snuck in and surprised us all. According to the lead story in this week's MCV, the PC giant hosted an invite-only event where it presented and discussed X-Box, the codename for its first foray into the dedicated videogames machine market. Apparently 'senior figures' from the games industry were informed about Microsoft's plans for its Intel 500MHz processor powered console, which rumour has it could be on retail shelves by Christmas 2000 (which would likely put it up against PlayStation 2 and the Next Generation Nintendo's inaugural festive sales period, as well as Dreamcast's second). Whilst Microsoft is still officially denying the X-Box's existence (it is company policy not to comment on rumour), MCV also reported that the prospective console will use Nvidia's GeFORCE 256 GPU graphics accelerator, which was launched at ECTS on 5 September. It has been said that X-Box will connect to TVs, HDTVs and monitors, and since it will use directX as its operating system it will run most Windows games. Nothing has been said of what kind of soundcard will be used, but MCV alluded that it will utilise a DVD drive and be Internet compatible. As for a retail price, MCV quoted a guest from the X-Box event who said the Microsoft bandied about a $200 figure. Microsoft probably got the idea for X-Box following its contribution to Sega's Dreamcast console, which uses the Windows CE operating system. Whilst Microsoft has no real experience in the console market, it certainly has a lot of financial clout, and Sony had no console background before it released the PlayStation... and look how that turned out! TGN will be keeping a close eye on any developments to do with X-Box, as it looks like there's a new player in the console wars.
