yawn, show me the POWER OF THE EXCLUSIVES, then we'll talk, I'll throw a couple for you, 1-year old Uncharted, and (gasp) a beta of Killzone 2, then I'll give you Little Big Planet effects as a side dish, how's that working out for you? full yet? ok, let me throw Resistance 2 running tons of shit on screen without no slowdown, can the deathbox handle that? NOPE.

 you dont deserve a responce to that lame idea in your head. All I have to say is Gears 2 horde mode.

I had a preaty good idea that the CPU was onpar or atleast close to the cells power with only 7 procesors being used and 1 for the builky OS. The only thing is its hard to know what NXE is using, and if all the patches that PS3 gets bulk it down any. I would asume NXE uses about 2% more power now then the old blade system since not much was added in terms of features while a game is running minus the party system, but with all the patches and extra addons the PS3 gets its probly 5% or more power usage now. The GPU has never been a factor for most true un-fanboy gamers. Of course Microsoft is going to use the nex-gen hardware because they know what software they are devloping for PC's and what is easy to program for. The PS3 on the other had would have to go with what they think would work best for now. In the long run Microsoft kind of controles that field and can always make it work in thier favor.  Seperating the GPU and normal CPU ram was I think the worst mistake Sony made. It is alot more flexibale to make it unified and have the extra ram to throw around is always nice. What I never got is how do 360, and PS3 get away with having such low ram total and still being able to run games as good looking as they do now? My PC could never run most major games without at least 1gig (that free ram not including what my OS is already using). Anyway maybe since ram has plumited in price over the last couple years they could add alot more to the next next-gen systems to help free up some of the loads the CPU has to deal with.
