Will the Xbox One Cloud Underdeliver like The Cell Processor?

Obviously, the Xbox One Cloud is still in progress so we don't really know yet whether it will deliver on all of Microsoft's promises. What do you guys think? Will this live up to the hype or will it be this generation's "Power of teh CELL"?

Wait, are you saying that Cell underdelivered? You truly don't know what you're talking about. Cell was ahead of it's time and PS3 exclusives still look like the best console games because of it. It is the RSX gpu that underdelivered and why Cell had to make up for the weak gpu.

 

The cloud is bullshit, graphics are the last thing I want to be dependent on my internet connection.

Yes, the cell underdelivered. Take a look at the initial advertising and promises that Sony made before the PS3 launch.

Heck, even Hideo Kojima lamented about the PS3's lack of performance. In a conference, he made a presentation about how the PS3's promises were so high that he began dreaming so big.. only to have to downgrade MGS4 because of the limitations of the actual console. I forgot what the conference was but it was presented with a funny graphic of Snake hanging on to a really high ramp that represented the PS3's promised power, but the ramp suddenly fell when the actual console was given to him.

Sure, there are PS3 games that look good now. But nowhere near as good as what Sony originally promised.

I dont care about Kojima, he is 3rd party, MGS4 is from 2008. We have games like Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, The Last of Us, God of War 3, Beyond, Heavy Rain etc and you bring up an old game to prove your point? Those exclusives I summed up destroy everything else on consoles. All thanks to the Cell. The Cell more than overdelivered, it made up for the weak gpu.
