Prican25 Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 theres a catch tho, games for Chihiro could need a lot more ram then what xbox uses/upgradable to. for example outrun 2 uses 512mb of ram where xbox's limit is 128mb ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForceX Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 (edited) This is great news...but the Xbox will not be able to emulate Chihiro mainly because of Chihiro's extra ram.

Wizard Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 The Chihiro in PC terms is a "P.O.S." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weirdy Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 (edited) wait?! where's the breakthrough part?! All I read was about arcade games running on xbox-based hardware which is old news to me Edited September 6, 2004 by Weirdanzeige Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corn99 Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 can the x-box even do 125 million polygons per second? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceX Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 VF5?I reckon that Sega will keep the VF series on the Naomi 2 board. So, I don't see much chance of VF5 making it to the Xbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
