Over the past few months, we have heard very little other than Xbox 360 and PS3 bashing and counter-bashing dished out by Microsoft and Sony. Hands have gotten quite dirty, but it never really brought potential buyers any closer to the reality of the next-gen consoles and their performance attributes.We have seen the specs on paper, but for the technically minded graphics enthusiasts among you, beyond3d has a most thorough article on the graphics capabilities of the Xbox 360 based on conversations with ATI and some developers who have already had some inside knowledge of Microsoft's new Xbox gaming console.
Throughout this article we'll attempt to piece together the operation of the graphics processor based on our conversations with ATI and some developers who have already had some knowledge of XBOX 360's capabilities, however we'll also offer some opinions on certain elements. Sections typed in blue indicate Beyond3D's suppositions and have not been directly indicated to us by ATI.
