When your last system has a component such as this thats more powerful then your newer one that alone should tell people something..

In what way ? 

The CPU in the PS3 was more powerful then the CPU thats in the PS4, i just dont understand why they didnt just add in a more powerful version of the Cell CPU.

Pretty sure that all bar the absolute best Devs like Naughty Dog weren't able to utilize the Cell properly so they made the right call in changing to something a bit more mainstream.  Had Sony of gone with some kind of updated Cell whilst the Xbox One went the way it did, we wouldn't see the gains we are seeing now on multi plat games.  They would ALL be developed for Xbox first, then a rush job ported over because it would have been too much hassle otherwise to spend too much time on it.  I don't think Sony had too much of a choice to be honest.
