2016 seem a little too far but I agree. Ps3 has got everything it's need to hold on for the years to come. it has got an adequate media (blu-ray), powerful hardware, and soon motion controls and 3D capability.

maybe a little far for microsoft but i think sony will take advantage of Ultra HD

Do you believe that the RSX has the necessary fill rate for Ultra HD definitions, when no 3D game of all of the PS3 library run at 1920x1080 30 frames per second with decent/complex graphics? Nonsense.

the use of the RSX will hopefully be phased out by the cell by 2012, only being used once the cell is maxed out

Do you know that the cell doesn't have the neccesary fixed function silicon to be effective in these type of works?

ops sorry I thought we were talking about full HD I hadn't heard of ultra HD, so I have learnt something today :). I will try and be more careful next time.

well anyway talking about the life of the ps3 then this article, basically explains that the cell is superior to high end graphics card in terms of smoothing at the time the article was written.  http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=97620&page=1.
