In terms of plot, James Cameron’s Avatar was basically Pocahontas in space. However, no one can deny that, technically, the movie was a triumph of new graphics technology. If we can believe AMD, we will soon be able to render scenes of the scope and scale of James Cameron’s Avatar right in our own living room while shooting people in the head over Xbox Live. AMD is the tech company responsible for the Xbox 360’s graphics, and while they won’t confirm that they are working on the next Microsoft console, they certainly have no problem talking about what the console is capable of. Recently, they said that the next Xbox will be able to render graphics on par with Avatar in real time, 3D and everything. AMD said that the console will have graphics of this level available at launch, so who knows what leaps and bounds we could make in graphics technology over the lifespan of the new console.
