Forums - Sony - Xbox360s vs. PS3: The Hardware throwdown. And the winnder is. . ..

PS3. 

http://gear.ign.com/articles/111/1116182p1.html

PS3 wins:  CPU, RAM, and Hard drive.

Xbox360 wins: GPU

 On Xbox360s' CPU, "Interestingly, the new combined CPU/GPU chip used in the new Xbox 360 is theoretically faster than the individual chips in older models. But in order to ensure proper functionality, Microsoft was forced to install a "frontside bus replacement block" that introduces latency and forces the chip to run at the same speed as the older model. This new combined chip may edge out the PS3's CPU in terms of reliability and temperature control, but no long term tests have been performed yet. "

who gives a shit? They're both outdated hardware and both can produce amazing visuals still. It's only more ammo for fanboy drivel.



I guess, but who cares at this point in time? I'm guessing this thread might get pretty long soon.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

Congratulations to the winnder!!



The question is, who cares at this point? We've all learned by now that it's first-party/second-party developers who show the strengths of a console.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

I think it's great that these 2 outdated consoles are getting formerly PC exclusive franchises. Crysis and Dungeon Siege, for example!

OT:
IGN must be desperate for hits. We're 4 years into the generation and they're STILL doing console comparisons. I demand a Wii vs PS3 tech comparison. Just to make it fair.
