Sony Computer Entertainment president Ken Kutaragi revealed today in an interview with Japan's Impress Watch technology site that the PS3's Cell processor will make the switch to a 65nm manufacturing process in 2007. Shipments of the more efficient chip will make it out later that year.
The Cell is in production at IBM's Fishkill and Sony's Nagasaki fabrication facilities. Currently, the chip is being produced using a 90nm process. Switching to a 65nm process will reduce costs, potentially leading to a price reduction of components that use the chip.
With the ninth mainline installment looming, it feels like the right moment to rank every mainline Resident Evil game from worst to best.
At first I was like, No Code Veronica on the list!? But then I seen Mainline. The list checks out, but I would personally put 2 over 4.
I'll take 2 over 4 also. And even without a number, I don't see how Code Veronica, my other favorite in the franchise, isn't mainline when it's the actual sequel to RE2.
The original RE was the best. Its not on the list which makes no sense.
The remake of it was alright but should be higher on this list.
Original Saints Row design director Chris Stockman has declared the Saints Row franchise is "dead".
I just started this game last night, just the player creation had me upset. You choose male but they stand like a female. Eyebrows are all effeminate, face, and verything seems to be modeled after a female with a thin male overlay.
I only played the opening and didn’t even complete that before I turned the game off. I will likely go back and try it again, but a very weird first impression.
The franchise has been complete utter garbage for almost 20 years. The first one was the only decent game of the lot of them.
OMG Thank you! Never understood how people raved about Saints Row like it was GOATED.
Honestly Janky Generic feeling titles with Humor that tried to way too hard. People criticize Borderlands for its humor, but holy hell, still leagues better than any SR.
The second part of GTA BOOM's interview with Obbe Vermeij where they turn from origin stories to craft. Specifically, how early GTA games created the illusion of life, and why that illusion still matters more than brute-force simulation.
So.....is he telling everyone to wait, or that the PS3 launch will be pushed back again?
Who in their right mind would buy one at launch if less than a year later a better one will be out? Ken has got to be the biggest dumba$$, Sony needs a new leader. Before Ken kills the company. Looks like I'll be waiting even longer for the PS3!
I only will believe when I'm seeing after all of Sony's false promises. Let them first get the PS3 out with whatever manufactering process and not delay any further
I don't get how you guys manage to turn this into negative news.
I was wondering........... Why is there an ad for maidenform bras on a game site? I'll admit the chicks are hot, but really ... how many girls visit this site?
Or......... is it free softcore for all the little pudwackers???
I doubt it's going to happen right away since they still haven't got good yields on 90nm so 65nm would yield even lower amounts of cell processors. But like Microsoft said it has no bearing on customers. Both the xbox 360 and ps3 will get a die shrink, it will produce less heat so the manufacturs can use smaller heat sinks so it the end the same amount of heat leaves the system.
