I dont see how the architecture of the CELL is new when it is over 4 years old (or somethin like that...).


yeah compare it to the architecture of the PC's,now how old is that???????????????

 

and you don't understand,4years is not the issue

the problem is that even 4 years in,nobody really develops on PS3 so they never got used to it.

 

mostly only develop on 360 and then port it

 

now look at exclusive developers who constantly work on PS3 so they have gotten used to it and their games are the best

It's actually the x86 instruction set that is old, the rest of the things in modern CPUs are quiet advanced depending on how you code for it, that's why something like the i7 is beasty for so many things that the Cell won't be able to do. 64bit is slowly becoming the norm as well in the PC world as more and more computers come with more than 4GB of ram now, it's just moving differently. The design of the original Cell was never meant to replace PCs mind you, it's just very different.
