About the theoretical factors that the 360 gpu is better than the ps3 gpu, but only when it is gpu vs gpu. But when you put the cell and gpu together, the ps3 blows the 360 out the water. You must take into account that the xdr ram helps speed everything up for the ps3, although it has less pipelines, it does it's cycles in Ghz not Mhz which is a huge bump in speed. And don't listen to all the bs that carmack and whoever said, they're businessmen for christ's sake. I work with 50 ps3's right ...
This is the worst update ever. You can't listen to music and browse around anymore. I really wished I didnt update as I always listen to music and browse the internet from my PS3. WHat ashame. PLEASE SONY FIX THIS! And the font isss waaaayyyy to large. they seem to be catering to children now....WTF!!?!
Who care's guys, this game is not even done yet and is already being gimped due to the fact that it's a multi-platform game. And to the xbox fanboy who said that 60 hertz does not mean 60 frames, yes it does. frequency or frames is the number of cycles that happen in one second. The unit of frequency is hertz. 60 hertz means 60 frames per second. Which means the picture refreshes 60 times per second....you xbox fans make it seem like its never been done before...try doing 60fps at a steady 10...
I love these debates. Lots of uneducated Microsoft followers as usual. PS3 is hands down waaaayyy more powerful than the Xbox 360. PS3 is alot more powerful than what PS3 fans make it out to be. Ask the scientists, engineers and doctors who use it. I myself have been using the cell processor add-on to help aid in calculations at the nuclear reactor that i'm doing my co-op at(Currently an Energy Solutions Engineering and mechanical engineering undergrad with other multiple degrees). Dave shipp...
Microsoft fans have got to be some of the most uneducated and retarded people on the planet. A game like Killzone 2, can absolutely not be done on the 360. Here is a list explaining why it cannot be done;
-Xbox 360 does not have the capacity and streaming capabilities and speeds of a blu-ray drive. The game would be gimped in so many ways, from graphics, sounds, textures, loading times, real time wave tracing( for those of us with a 7.1 SS set-up) etc.
-CPU and GPU c...
...and their very ignorant group of followers and cheap customers who love to get ripped off. PS3, by a mile, is more powerful than the Xbox 360. Just ask the scientists that use it to study fatal diseases and blackholes and other unknown things in the universe such as the big bang and LQC(loop quantum cosmology or gravity). Why do 360 owners even bother to argue thinking their console is more powerful when the whole world knows it isn't? Do they feel that ripped off that they have to embaras...
yes, the cellbe is faster than the i7, it just needs the proper software to show it. the hardware is there, the software isn't yet. just look at the improvements 1st party devs are showing off. same hardware, different software.
The cellbe can run a "packet" of super or hyper pi using 1 spu, meaning it can run 7 hyper pi's in parallel, its not all about clock speeds, its about the amount of work it can do in parallel. Please don't get me started on car's. Please. I have plenty of experience and knowledge in that department too being the owner of an 1991 RHD WRX Sti with over 500+ HP with Symmetrical AWD and an Ariel Atom with a upgraded centrifugal water cooled charger that only puts out 302rwhp. believe me...
You are an idiot. your car analogy is completely moot. Reading your post I can tell you that you know nothing. Stay in school.
Since I got a little off topic with my above post, if you were to run super-pi or hyper-pi on a cellbe against the i7 quad core, the cellbe would crush it mathematically speaking. And if you have no idea what I'm talking about, you have no validity in saying I'm wrong.
First of all, I've been a lurker on here for the longest time, and I've read so many of these PS3 vs. XBOX arguments on which one is better. I'm a gamer at heart, but engineering and technology is my passion. I have a degree in both mechanical and electrotechnology working towards a masters and doctorate in both. and let me tell you that the ps3 is one of the most advanced technologies out there to date. This is just the beginning of parallel processing and microprocessing technology and I d...
What are you a hick in small town America? You are a joke.... The architecture of the cell makes it a perfect machine for calculations, especially with the xdr ram. Look up roadrunner, you know what look up on the different uses of the cell b.e. uses. I know they also use it in the multi media department at my school as well for HD video encoding. And the Doctors here are also working with engineers for robotic limbs use with the help of the cell b.e. Not only here but a lot of universities ...
