I read an interesting article over at ferrago which has some news on Half Life 2 for the Xbox. Half Life 2 was one of the biggest selling pc games of the last few years and as its release to the Xbox nears, people are concerned that the game will be a paired-down version of the PC due to aging architecture inside the current Xbox. These fears may yet be laid to rest, ferrago are reporting that the levels and gameplay will be identical to the PC version. It has to be said that the Source engine behind the classic Half Life 2 can pretty much be played on any half-decent PC, so the Xbox may hold some hope for non-pc Half Life 2 fans. Also the Xbox version is purported to have some enhanced lighting effects which will outshine those seen on the PC version.
naturally the texture detail and resolutions will be of a lesser standard. Loading times will be the same as the PC, although given the wide range of wait times on different machines quite which PC that will be the same as remains to be seen.
