Rumor: Cafe has 8 GB internal storage, maybe no 1080p

Terrible idead, 8GB is way too smal- no way around it. And the console should be powerful enough for all games to be 1080p. Afterall, this will compete with PS4 and 720- not ps3 and 360. 

PS4/720 probably wont' do 1080p all the time. Its just not necessary and certainly doesn't have a good ROI. Most people wouldn't even notice a difference between 720p and 1080p and especially won't notice if it were 1080i.

You act like its a difficult thing to do. 1080p games are nothing and all next gen consoles should be able to do it without question. 

True you can have resonable framerate at 1080p using pc gpu worth 60-70 euros so doing 1080i (which is resolution GT4 rendered on PS2) is pathetic in 2011 and in 2015 will be as much of a joke as Wii graphics today.

Also it means it won't even look as good as ps3/x360 as 720p offrs better image quality.

And 8 gb storage ? WTF? DD games on psn on average have few hundreds megabytes so this clearly show they again are going to neglect online.

But i guess Maelstrom will be happy since it clearly repeats Wii scenario.
