Are you guys joking? Those screenshots of Ace Combat 6 don't look very good. The buildings in that first movie don't look much better than the ones in the N64 Rogue Squadron, albeit their are more of them. Some of the planes look good, but the one in the 2nd pic on the left looks really bad. The fire in the 3rd looks awful too. The scale of Lair, how it can move from a fluid air battle to an incredibly detailed ground level with many moving figures while constantly maintaining each without any loading, is beyond what the 360 could handle whether you guys like it or not. The 360 is a powerful system, but the Cell absolutely dwarfs it in the amount of processing power it has. Just look at the recent Folding@Home numbers of computations the PS3 was able to generate. The Cell unarguably has A LOT of power.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
