Wow.

PS3 is less powerful than the 360 in number of gigaflops.

Thanks for the links and facts.

 

Actually, throughout the post there's a fair number of opposing views (backed by similar analysis) that indicate the PS3 gigaflops potential exceeds 360...

I've come to the following conclusions:

1) its better to play games on consoles that debate their processing power when so many conflicting views exist

2) nobody, no matter how well intentioned, seems able to offer an objective and unbiased view on these matters

I'll give you an objective view.

The PS3 is indeed more powerful, and better designed than the 360. The complexity of the PS3 however, makes it difficult for *less gifted* developers to code for the PS3, and the porting from 360 to PS3 just causes more problems, which is why often we see ports that look worse and run worse on the PS3.

However, with developers such as EA switching to PS3 as the lead console we should soon begin to see the PS3 shine as old developers learn new tricks.

Are we going to see these results immediately? Probably not, in the mean time buy the game for which console you own and stop crying about it.
