Unlike Haloooo...I do enjoy talking about this stuff, but in the context of gaming, I have a hard time believing the PS3 has 400% more capability in the console...what's that in terms of quality, actual photo-realistic models?...I don't think current ps3 look 400% better than the ps2 game before it...time will tell, but I watch the demo of killzone, and while the game is nice looking...errr....not even close.

Haloooo is right about having a powerful beast of a machine...this isn't a drag race...it's a business, and the one who can do it cheaper and sell more wins...The Gensis was the better console...lost....so was the Sega Saturn...remember Neo Geo?  To this day, I'll say it again and again, Sony overreached with the PS3, and it squandered a critical advantage that it might never get back.  It let M$ get it's foot in the door, and they basically recharged Nintendo (the tradition console power) with the Wii. 

 

I agree completely.  Improvements from here on out will largely be through the cleverness of the teams developing the games, and not about the power of the console's CPU or GPU at all, really.

For all practical purposes, the X360 and the PS3 on equal footing.  We could argue forever about the advantages of each architecture over the other, and in the end, those differences will be completely overshadowed by the design decisions, and skill, of the teams making the games on them.

 

yup.what it boil's down to anyway the skill of the developer, and the performance of the Machine is pretty much a a guide line on what the machine is capable of .with Time, experience and IDEAS you want to impliment in the project. ie: game's, than you have result's.Not everyone may not like your result's. but there is Alway's room for Improvement.

this generation will have none of the consoles as what people may term as a "FAILURE" because this generation, each Console by

Nintendo

SONY

Microsoft

Will generate more profit's than the previous generation console

why because each console this generation has more "revenue" streams for each Companies Console than that conpanies console had last generation. because of Simply online distribution alone has many thing's for each company to generate revenue.

ALL the system's have online network, that sale, software, and esp. with Sony and Microsoft movies for rent, and buy with Sony's network,Placement ADVERTISEMENT for other companies on their network's. XBOXLIVE,HOME, Nintendo. for Sony just with Blu-Ray alone, there are many "revenue" stream's that Sony can get.

haveing a lower Market share is alway's a Bad thing no doubt about that Companies all want the most market share they can get.

but on the same token Each company will generate more money this generation in their market share than they did last time.
