Gamespy feature: Inside the Xbox 2

[Null]

USB! they're learning! learning i tells ya!

im pretty sure now that Sony will continue to offer USB ports on PS3, after reading this, pretty sure Xbox2 will offer USB ports. only question now is, Is nintendo smart enough to enclude USB ports? i have my doubts on that one.

But this is exactly what i've been saying for a while. just adding USB ports onto the consoles opens up a world of possibilities for the machines. things like Keyboards / Mice / memory sticks / printers / Camera's / and much more are all possible becaue of one little port.

# Hard Drive - As many have speculated, Xenon's hard drive is optional. 2 GB of the drive will be used as game cache. The final drive size is still being determined.

Optional might be a potentionally HUGE mistake. hopfully they rethink that. i'd rather see the only option being a BIG hard drive or a small one. having an option to have none at all could really hurt them.
