had to admit, if let only ONE to choose... i will get the PS3 eventhou i'm own an x360 just for the 2x more power it can give compared to x360.. there will be time when multi platform games on x360 will have lower framerate compared to ps3
anyway, will get them all eventualy

QUOTE(ikanayam @ May 16 2006, 03:50 PM) I don't think you even know what the article was discussing now do you? If that code had any dynamic branching in it, that will explain why it's slower on the Nvidia GPU. Run it on the X1900 or Xenos (xbox360 GPU) and it will fly. The Cell, while being a good streaming processor, does not have the resources to do texturing and all the other stuff which a GPU can do quickly. And the emotion engine is not the first generation Cell. The PS3 is using the 1st generation Cell. eh? really? to my understanding is, the code is actually for the GPU, and they tested on the cell alone, simple as that.. and i read somewhere long ago, cell is from emotion ><, the concept is there..

cell is not a gpu, but it can be a gpu .. oh.. thousand sword true of its beautiful gfx, but that goodness in within an arena and about the controller, such revolutionary as wii did show us, for me, its just a controller which any console can adopt it later, its gfx is a let down. also, seen vf5 @ ign, the fighting scheme need to be revamp, it looks like playing old vf4.. and doa4 seems for me, is far better.

QUOTE(ikanayam @ May 17 2006, 01:59 PM) PCs are x86. PowerPC/Cell is not similar to x86. So you can't say they are similar. RSX is a G71 modified to use XDR RAM. The Xbox360 GPU has no PC equivalent. And the PS3 has one PPE and 7 SPEs. One of the 8 is disabled. so, its a mac then

QUOTE(BurgaFlippinMan @ May 17 2006, 02:36 PM) Which everyone should know had they bothered to read up John Carmack's (and Molyneux was it?) interview last year instead of Sony's and Microsofts pimp armies. Another thing a lot of people tend to forget is, most games will be multiplatform and at the end of the day, they will be weighted down to the lowest common denominator (the platform with the weakest power) not all multiplatform developed buttom up, some from up to bottom, which in these case weakest got pawned

QUOTE(BurgaFlippinMan @ May 17 2006, 04:54 PM) Well, its not impossible that developers will just forget about the tilting rubbish, its nothing new (Microsoft Freestyle pads anyone?  ) and seems a last minute act of desperation. as for the wii, it also has a shell for normal stuff no?  Dude, before GPUs came about, your CPU did all the graphics duties.  As for Virtua Fighter, I'd personally like to shoot anyone in the head who suggests revamping the mechanics. Why mess with perfection?  Emphasize 'perfection'. not totaly revamp aa.. dunno why, i looked at the gameplay, the animations r stiff and seems not connected QUOTE(carnbyresurrected @ May 17 2006, 10:02 PM) Yiiiiii......i hope Wii can suprise everyone like the NDS and PSP war....(NDS won big time cos of innovative gameplay)......cos i wanted to buy xbox360...now im thinking between these 2 .........  just get the x360, save a bit and by early next year, get the wii
