The PS3 has a potential processing advantage over PC setups:
Scientists:
"its highly plausible that the raw computing power per dollar that the PS3 offers, is significantly higher than anything else on the market today!"
Referring to the 6 SPEs available under Linux:
"Overall, a single PS3 performs better than the highest-end desktops available and compares to as many as 25 nodes of an IBM Blue Gene supercomputer."
Some Resistance 2 related quotes from Insomniac:
"Conclusions
* It's not that complicated.
* Good data and good design works well on the SPUs (and will work well anywhere)
-Sometimes you can get away with bad design and bad data on other platforms
-...for now. Bad design will not survive this generation.
*Lots of opportunities for optimization."
