@ stan: it's good that they streamline their engine, but more ram doesn't necessarily mean AAA titles, now does it? :-/

Were motion controls their big surprise? :P

Developers were asking for more ram, MS delivered. I don`t see nothing wrong with that.

And because they kept the old engine for sale,only those developers looking to make AAA games will buy the performant developer kit.

So in this case,yes...more ram means better looking games and i asume those games are AAA...they have a good start with the better graphics,tho.

I didn't say there was anything wrong with that.

The assumption however that more ram equals more AAA titles is a bit presumptuous.

It gives more opportunities, that is correct. But an automatic "more AAA titles"? Especially because you connect graphics to AAA.

Well as long as he stays away from Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Chaos Legion II its all good.

they just got done a couple of weeks ago interviewing the head developer of games for the 360 on TV and he said flat out "We have things coming up know one knows anything about" and not to look for much said till summer which means E3.
