What I am interested to see is the next gen Console to be a Full fledge PC, where one can do everything the PC can do like word documents, Internet browsing, media player,torrent machine, MSN messenger and the list goes on. More like a Standard spec PC, totally replacing Tablet PC and PC for everything.  biggrin.gif

Currently the PS3/360 is like a half bake online box. tongue.gif

...and slap high-end PC's premium price tag onto them.

Torrenting? Big bright red flag for gaming console.

3. The graphics is good and smooth and the cell processor in PS3 is power!!! you can read the comparison @ CNET the xbox360 uses Intel XENON Processor with 2 core and the cell processor is a IBM single core with 8 thread (but game only use 6 thread) and the pipeline between the graphics and processor is very fast

Sorry, there's no such thing as Intel Xenon (mind you the Intel's one is called XEON)

And next you gonna shocked too. Xenon is actually almost the same chip with Cell as both came up in the same development cycle. Xenon is designed by IBM too, with almost the same architecture as both Xenon and Cell are from the same generation, only that both went through different strategy in their design,

Xenon Processor on Wiki
These cores are slightly modified versions of the PPE in the Cell processor used on the PlayStation 3


Design-wise, Xenon is a tricore-chip with 6 logical cores while Cell is an 8-PPU design. But both are derived from POWER-based architecture by IBM.

As an added note, it's already mentioned by a lot that coding games on Cell proved to be a lot harder than on Xenon (XCPU). That's why a lot of multiplatform games looks a bit better on XBOX360 than on PS3, and they tend to be buggy too on PS3 (except more recent games). And all of that despite PS3 supposedly have a bit advantage on their chip. This is all thanks to the 8-PPU design which is not a walk in the park to tinker with. And that's too the reason why the more graphical-appealing games are mostly came from Sony's first party studios. So now you get the picture of how PS3 got advantage on game exclusives.

Plus it's not like there are no games on X360. And they got a range of exclusive titles too.
