Title: Xvid & Divx Coming To Xbox 360

I wish that source was reliable biggrin.gif . H.264 should be coming to the 360 to support the mandatory requirements of the HD-DVD drive, but until its been properly hacked, DivX and Xvid never will  sad.gif  . This aint a bad thing tho, just look at a comparison between the two:-

The Xvid does take less time to compile, but the H.264 output is noticebly better in quality.
