The software giant Microsoft has made it’s much awaited launch of the Xbox 360 which it says will bring a new era in home entertainment. The main difference between is the look which is completely different – the original version being replaced with a sleeker shiny look. Underneath the shell, the processing power is many times greater than the original console and estimates of how much more vary between 2 and 10 times as powerful. The power boost is due to the Xbox 360 having 3 processing cores compared to the original only having one. In terms of graphics, the new Xbox can draw up to 500 million polygons where as in comparison the older version had an upper limit of 125million.
