Congratulations on proving that you've done no research. The PS3 is supposed to be the strongest this time around.

I consider the Playstation 3 to be more of a wild card at this point. Even though it is too early to tell, I think programmers are going to have a hard time with Cell. (That might change later on.) What Cell does it quite different from modern day processors. Cell uses massive parallel processing. (ie, using all SPE's to accomplish a task. It can multitask, but that is up to the programmer/s and the compiler.) While most of the modern day processors (A Pentium 4 for example.) are designed to handle one task at a time. (This is changing.) Most programmers are used to writing code for one processor let alone eight. I can see some of the power in the Playstation 3 and Cell remaining untapped because of this.

I'm not saying that Cell is a bad design. From a technical stand point, it is a quite interesting piece of technology. However, I believe gaming is not a correct application for it.

also i herd somthing about the GPU in the PS3 being exactly the right kind for the cell. Likeits its made to run of a moltie core GPU but the PS3 ony has a singale.

((or somthing like that i know what i just said is not right but mabby you know what im talking about. i lost the link))

in othere words the PS3 dose not have every thing it needs to run the Cell at foll power

What makes an console gay?

Ah the Nintendo Revolution is going to rule them all. Nintendo are the best at making consoles. They may not have a lot of games out, but what they have is pure quality. And with the Revolution, they are going to have a bigger third party support then with the gamecube. Just because it will be the last released, doesn't mean it wont be as popular. The XBOX 360 will be long forgotten when the ps3 comes out, and the ps3 will disappear with the arrival of the rev.
Sony has always stolen Nintendo's ideas in the past. And why? Because their so damn good!
