Just normal machines, could be using SMP and workstation GFX like FireGL though not too sure how much they are actually used in industry

Wasn't original development done on G5's?

G5s were originally used as demo systems.

They use PC's to make the games.

The games software used are dependant, however it's nearly always Autodesk Maya or Autodesk 3D Studio Max for the graphics and C++ for the programming. These are them compiled into a playable format which is tested on Xbox360 Dev kits.
