Japanese Xbox.com Warns Gamers Of Disc Scratching Potential >

	It seems that in response to all the game disc scratching hubbub on the internet, Microsoft Japan has decided to post a page on the Japanese XBox.com to warn gamers of the potential issue. The website clearly shows that moving or jarring the unit while the game is playing may damage it. This really seems like common sense but I guess MS is taking no chances. >Link

Microsoft: Xbox 360 Slightly More Powerful Then PS3

But they're still both Ferraris when it comes down to it...

Speaking at yesterdays' 33rd Annual UBS Global Media Conference Microsoft's Bryan Lee, Corporate Vice President & CFO Home & Entertainment, demonstrated the 360 to an audience of key participants in the global media sector and proclaimed it to be "slightly more powerful" then the Playstation3.

"With Sony if they do hit the specs which they've said they'll have there's a debate, there's a couple of categories where they outdo us, there's several categories where we outdo them. On balance I think most people who study the space will tell you our system is slightly more powerful then theirs from a hardware standpoint. But for the purposes of this discussion I think it's fair to say they're both Ferraris"

Lee reiterated Microsoft's expectations of 4.5 to 5 million units being shipped before June 30th 2006, with between 2.75 million and 3 million of these coming during the first 90 days.
