These reports will continue until more developers become at home using the Cell architecture. It would seem this far into the generation though that a lot of developers aren't prepared to invest more time in using the Cell so I'd guess its almost nailed on Sony will move way from the Cell for the PS4. The only exception is if they do a "Wii" with the next PS4 and produce a hardware evolution on the GPU and CPU rather than a entire new architecture.

There is arguments that make sense on both sides I guess and we'll know more this time next year.

that really is such a shame since 3rd party like Capcom and Square-Enix already have their multiplat engines completed and running great at this point in time. UE3 has also pretty much matured on the PS3, not to mention the Cell is actually fully PhysX capable when optimized correctly as well on top of being very HDR capable.

Read the last sentence I wrote in that quote.

just having a discussion lol. guess I should have started with, "it really would be a shame since..." instead.
