To me so far it seems a lil pointless.. I dont enjoy this trojan horse stratergy. SH-4 on the DC cost 30 bucks to make at launch and was pretty powerful. the cell is now around 3 years old(development point of view), has gone through hardware evolution shrinkage and still costs 60 bucks..
Its a bit of a criminal waste of technology.. if the developers cant use the power the chip has- its useless- no matter how many cores it has. Unfortunately SONY no longer enjoys the position in market share to force developers to work harder for better results.
M$ took a simpler strategy with the 360 and used a weaker/simpler CPU
I wanna see more heavy rain/killzone2 type of graphics but I have this feeling by the time developers get the hang of the ps3 the next-box will be out with the same strategy..
simpler components/lower costs is the way, the wii n xbox360 prove that!
Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.
