this game looks lifelike on 1080p and thats all i can ask for..... that being said... unless SONY'S FIRST PARTY DELEVOPERS LIKE NAUGHTY DOG OR SANTA MONICA develop it.....
the ps3's rediculous cpu power wont be utitlized properly.... the one question i have is why an RSX... combine a cell with the 360 gpu and you got a console that wont be touched for years....
cell/RSX > Xenos/Xenon
But not by much..
cell/Xenon > many pcs... but obviously not all of em..

The Cell is hardly a great CPU for games, and its one that is now half a decade old. Sony had a fun little experiment, but their dream of derivative CPUS in just about everything under the sun never panned out, let alone their pie in the sky idea of distributed computing. On top of that they did a bad job of predicting where GPUs were headed, especially in terms of raw power. But they did see the GPGPU trend popping up, and you have to give them credit for that - even though there entry into the market failed.

True..... Its been a struggle working with the cell ever since their launch and if they were to remake the ps3 i guarentee theyd use a much simpler multicore processor with a heafty-ass GPU
Cell is not a complete failure tho... Naughty Dog raves about it, and proves it with Uncharted 2
And keep in mind that while these numbers don't meant a whole lot in practical use.....
The cell processor still can perform almost twice as many floating point operations per a second compared to an Core i7 cpu.
“Absolutely, we can do much more with it. I don’t know if we are even close to 50 percent of PlayStation 3’s power at this point,” said Asmussen about God of War 3.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME???
