Are you thick? Top Pc's use Cell. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.Both Intel and AMD had Cpu's that outperformed the cell before it came out. As it stands now Intel are so far in front of the cell in speed it's embarrasing. Also the future of the CPU is to intergrate the GPU into it. PC gamers will never use the cell why? It doesnt have enough General purpose processing. DX10 is built to go hand in hand with GPPThe cell's performance in the PC market would be considerably bad. Go look for yourself. Go to Intels latest processors and see what figures they are kicking around.

In some parts YES it does, there are no pre rendered scenes in mgs4, the character models defenitly look better in mgs4, and so do the vehicles, and so does the EGG cutscene, which is rendered in game. Environments definatly not, but MGS4 is the best looking game on the PS3. Nothing is pre rendered in crysis either. "the character models look better in mgs4. " Here are some character models in crysis. Here are character models in MGS4   Which are more detailed? Obviously crysis.

Characters in the MGS4 pics are way to far IMO to be able to judge ...

 

Crysis looks better...

 

Taking Crysis at close to what its capable of looking at (which seems to me only fair way of looking at it rather than banging on about lower spec PCs) vs MGS4 then obviously Crysis has overall better graphics. MGS4 does look good though, particularly many of the character models.

(Don't know if I already posted here or not. Sorry if I did)
Short answer: no
Long answer: no way

MGS4 does have the best graphics of any console game though

See the real question is which looks better, Crysis or Reality?

OOh yeah...real life engine:))))Haaahaahaa

Lol that is the funniest thing I've heard. While XDR is fast in terms of clock speed it has so much latency that there is far less bandwidth than that of a pcs gpu memory. Even if it were faster it wouldn't be about to compensate for the ps3 having far less ram. Also RSX is equivalent to a 7800gtx. That is about a year and a half old, and their are current gpus that output about 4 times that. The cell wouldn't help graphics rendering in the way you are wishing to. The additional advantage would be small. Also I don't know what you are talking about combining DDR2 ram with GDDR4? That makes no sense at all.

Is more like a 7800GT with the bandwidth of a 7600GT...

is the 7800gtx good?
