Wouldn't that just shoot their development costs up even more astronomically high? |
Not so much as you would think. It's highly likely that the 360's successor at least will have the same general archtecture as the 360. The PS4 will likely be a multicore cell... maybe 3 or 4 cells depending on when they launch. The problem with Sony is that it's not likely they will be using NVidia as they really got screwed over(much like MS did with the Xbox). It is also highly unlikely that anyone will use Intel's new design either as they wont hand over ownership so reducing price will be difficult.
