Plus the Direct3D libraries for Xbox were rather slow and poorly optimized in some areas... IMO a lower level OpenGL implementation would have been better instead of just layer after layer of bulky classes that completely cover the NV2A hardware registers, but that's Microsoft for you
you just made yourself the smartest person in this thread IMHO

And for all of you defending the Xbox, why isn't Ninja Gaiden in your game libraries? I can't believe i sold that gem, now my Xbox is just sitting in my room, unplugged, collecting dust on the floor. The only reason I don't rebuy it is because Ninja Gaiden 2 comes out for 360 in a couple months! (If i didn't have a PC, I probably would have repurchased Ninja Gaiden a while ago)
