And this is what I got about extras :

That I do not know at this time. The teams are still working on it and
they do not like to divulge any info until the product is finished.

Pitty the BootDisk thingie mucks up all Xbox games, and the funnier thing is that you don't need an emulator - there's an upgrade that if you can get into the Microsoft Developer Area for licenced companies which you download and upgrade 2000|XP - and it adds the format with the Autorun features ... just put in the DvD and away ya go

last time i checked though cost $280,000 - if you got that kinda cash laying around then ya know
check your favourite lil program they might have it lol

lmao... you don't pay Microsoft a dime, cause thats just to get the system tester

its simple enough to assemble a system of equal stature to an XBox for about $300 ... well as long as your already have Windows
what you actually get is just the SDK, which is Visual C++ libraries and manual + the DirectX 8.1 Debug (which is specific hardware compliment) + Format Reader/Writer using WinXP Professional or Win2k

certainly is an interesting software selection, because you also get sent that on CD with a controller. (nice to know they atleast threw in the controller lol)

funny thing is alot of the developers don't even use the PCs to test the hardware, they use an SDK Xbox which is a futher $15,000 ... i mean to developers this is cheap, but to most bedroom devs well lmao

Surely a percentage of each game sold is given to Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo for 'royalties/bribes' ? Thats the only reason I can think of for console games being so expensive.
