Yep I agree, who gives a fuck about that 5 percentage difference (if it even is that). especially MikeB and Crazzyman are driving me nuts. (MikeB why do you care so much about which one is more power full, isn't all because of the games, I mean come on look at your sig, imo it's just pathetic).

The answer is quite simple actually, why do gamers upgrade their PCs? Why haven't we all stuck to playing Snes games or Playstation 1 games?

With more power more can be accomplished, games can be pushed further. More enemies on screen, better AI, better graphics, etc. In the end this can result in far more impressive games especially in the game gernes I care about, huge sandbox games (GTA / oblivion), 3D shooters (Resistance 2 / Killzone 2), calculative intens strategy games (Civilization games), etc.

I think I fully addressed this flawed article in another thread. I don't understand why an article which is known to be incorrect and unrearched is dragged here time and time again. There have at least been a couple of other threads about this article.


First of all, when a gamer upgrade his/her PC, it's not to make a small 5 % increase. (Which is basically the case if you decide to trade in your 360 for a PS3. I don't mean 5% as the actual figures btw)

The power between the 360/PS3 is too close to even care which one is more powerful. If all developers just care about pushing games on the most powerful system, you see everything done on the PC. So the argument as to whether the PS3 or 360 is more powerful is pointless. It's about the games developed for both systems.
