Speculation XBox2 may use G5-based chipset?

Arden. UT2003 for XBOX supports up to 64 players. that would be 16 xboxes if all in one place. I don't want to know how crazy it would get. but as you said, to each his own.
I'm not quite sure how you would link 16 Xboxes together. 4, yes... 16, hmm.
 
Well, unlike other concoles, the XBOX has a built-in network port. just a standard RJ-45. Quite simple really. You get a 16 port switch (or hub if you are really skimpy) and 16 patch cables. I don't see how that is confusing?
 
Let's hope it is going to be something PPC based and that IBM are not going to start making those horrible IA-32 clones they used to make a few years ago.
 
As a matter of interest, what chip does/will playstation 2/3 use? Is is some sort of RISC affair or a modified Intel/PPC?
