Could have released 2 models... PS4 basic - $399 - current PS4 PS4 awesome - $499 - PS4 with RSX/Cell Same goes for Xbox One. |
This is why I want to know actually. There would be an add-on module with an embedded Cell/RSX graphics chip that would connect to the back of the PS4 via an external PCI bus adapter so it can have access to the PS4's I/O and AV-Out subsystems.
The x86 architecture is fast enough to handle the subsystems necessary to emulate the PS3 properly, due to having 512MB of the memory it needs.
