AMD the company behind the 360s graphics, said that the Xbox console will be able to render graphical detail on the level of James Cameron's movie Avatar.

They didnt just say that is going to have graphical power that is much farther than people were expecting to get to. They also happened to say that the A.I. will allow games with massive amounts of NPCs to have their own personality.

As a Xbox fanboy myself I have to say that I am very excited as this is a good jump for game consoles.
