  Powermac G5s at the Run the Xbox 360 E3 Show
Time: 18:25 EST/23:25 GMT | News Source: AnandTech | Posted By: Byron Hinson

In Microsoft's own Xbox 360 booth, we saw tons of kiosks running upcoming 360 titles that were actually playable. Games like Top Spin 2 and Need for Speed were playable, but for some reason they didn't actually look all that great for a next-generation console. Each kiosk had a wired Xbox 360 controller connected to it, running into the base of the kiosk that only had one small window showing off a Xbox 360 console. But the console itself wasn't on, looking at the right of the kiosk you get to see the actual power behind the demos. A pair of Apple Powermac G5 systems were actually running the Xbox 360 demos, not the 360 console. The consoles in the kiosks weren't actually running, they were just for show - now you know why all the controllers were wired.
