As for the PS3 processor. if they work this right, and really start hyping it around the time when xbox2 comes out, this could end up hurting MS.
of course we dont know for sure. but it appears to me at this current time, PS3 is going to be the powerhouse of nextgen. and being the most powerful console is one of MS's main attractions for this gen.
but have to wait and see how it all ends up. cant wait to see em all in action soon.

Re: PS3's Cell Processor
Ya, I can't wait to see them in action, and how the controllers look like.
I remember when I saw the GCN at SpaceWorld... Holy ****, I was so excited for like 5 hours.

Re: PS3's Cell Processor
i expect the controllers to look basically the same, only a few changes or additions to it.

According to an article in the latest PSM, the PS3 controller is apparently confirmed to have at least 2 new buttons to take advantage of new things PS3 has to offer...
Or something...

Re: PS3's Cell Processor
Adding more buttons to the controller? Where would they go?

Re: PS3's Cell Processor
In the third article it says that CELL is a vector processing unit. Deja vu maybe....hopefully the thought of finally achieving seamless, crisp, and clean graphics draws in Developers to design using the new PS3's full power. The ps2 had the same VPU but with Emotion Engine not CELL, but developer's didn't seem to enthused to design for it being so hard.
I say again... the thought of producing amazing graphics with CELL and VPU for the PS3 may draw in the developers and may give them that nudge they need to design better games.

Maybe they'll add analog "Select" and "Start" buttons.
This way, you can CHOOSE how much pause you want.

Re: PS3's Cell Processor
Numbers mean nothing, because no matter what, the company is going to show their best numbers without being able to show the whole picture of how everything will run together. This is the nature of all consoles. They have their strengths, but the strongest console is best overall (no bottlenecks).

Yeah this time PS3 shall be the most powerful plus have the best 3rd party backing if things go accordingly. And there goes Xbox's Temco games since they only want to develop for the most powerful console. Perhaps Nintendo is smart not to "directly compete" as they say. Gotta see what MS has to offer to keep gamers interested. Just a few more months...
