FiringSquad: Which feature, or I guess group of features, really sets the Xbox 360 VPU apart from the Ps3?

ATI: Well, there can’t be one, I’ve got to go with two. The unified shader and the embedded DRAM are both unique and just really important to the success of the platform. They’re both powerful features that just allow you to do things you couldn’t otherwise do. They save bandwidth, they give you a richness. Did we talk with you about fluid reality yesterday?

I say what is facts.....xbox 360 is the fastest selling console in HISTORY. People ain't waiting for the ps3. lol.....You are. The fastest to hit 5 million sold in history. Faster than ps1, ps2, xbox, dreamcast, every nintendo console, every sega console, and so on. That is an amazing feat. They crazy part is they are selling as fast as they are getting them in. So by the time the ps3 launches there will be round or about 10 million sold. In history the first to hit 10 million console...

why do sony fans get so defensive when I present screen shots that came directly from Sony's camp? Why is Sony showing them off if they suck in your opinion. I don't think they suck. lol.... From what the developers have been saying about the ps3 being a blu ray player that happens to play games...those pics are right on point to what I would expect. Its a cheap blu ray player...am I wrong? and it just so happens to play games. And thus far the games just aren't very impressive. Now the...

I didn't say they were bad. You did. I didn't say the ps3 in game shots suck. You basically did. lol....I just presented them the way Sony gave them. Those are ingame shots. A picture doesn't lie. lol... Stop blaming me. I didn't take the picture. I posted it straight from what they gave IGN. Thats what they use to hype up the games to come? Now you can understand why many gamers are not impressed. We don't want CG cut scenes SONY. No more of those tricks to get us to buy the game...

People buy the sony brand for the games right? lol.... Well here are the games announced as exclusive for the Ps3. Note, I only showed in game shots. Not the cg video stuff. We as gamers want to see the power of the PS3 IN GAME. What will we be playing that only the Ps3 can produce? Not a port. A ps3 exclusive. Check these out and prepare yourself to be amazed...lol...lol....lol

Unfortunately, today's session was severly lacking in information on the 64-bit PPC core that handles the Cell's general-purpose computing chores. We do know that this core has a VMX/Altivec unit, at least one FPU, and supports simultaneous multithreading (SMT). It's also in-order issue, like the SPUs. So it appears that this core also lacks an instruction window, presumably for the same reasons that the SPUs do (i.e. to save on die space and cut down on control logic.) I have in my notes tha...

I forgive you for calling me names. Its wierd that most sony fans seem to do that. They have so much anger in them. Remember. Don't blame the messenger. Sony did this to yall. I'm a Gamer. On a site called News for Gamers. If being a sony fans causes you so much stress and anger maybe you should Jump In. We 360 gamers are a happy bunch of Informed folks.

Typical name calling angry Sony fan. I forgive you.

Exactly Mart. lol...Why do Sony fans keep saying get off our ps3 site. lol... Its called News4gamers. Not news for ps3 fanboys. lol....Most of us 360 fans are fans because we have actually played and love the 360. Now we are gamers because we actually buy games. Some of us are curious about the ps3. Most of us don't hope the ps3 sucks. We just want to be informed on it. Just because some SONY fans fall for the obvious BS don't mean we as gamers should as well. We watch, we listen, we...

The specs have been released by SONY. They released the specs at E3 2006. Final Dev kits are for developers to finalize their code and has nothing to do with the system specs. The system specs have been released since 2005. In 2006 they released an update with the same specs just dropped a few features. Usb ports, duel hdmi, ect. So thats how people are able to compare. Sony doesnt have a secret weapon in their ps3. Its all documented and released to the public. Even on their ps3 sit...

Then they were threatened by Dreamcast and all the lies started flying from SONY. SO they were innocent before finding them guilty. Then they were found guilty on many instances with the ps2 and now the ps3. They are guilty before proven innocent. Once you lie over and over again you loose that. I have played games long enough to not be tricked by the cg video tricks. Once thing I can say that all microsoft games do. Is the cut scenes always look like the gameplay. Always. Thats why ...

the only thing the cell does better is floating point processing which is not optimal for games man. ITs true. ITs optimal for streaming data to the game in real time but it doesn't make for better graphics or gameplay. A matter of fact devs have said its not optimal for gaming. We will see won't we. I'm excited. lol....It will be interesting. lol....I'm more than happy now with the xbox 360....Sony has its work cut out to impress me now. IT has to blow the 360 away for me to even be i...

I could clearly tell teh difference in the moto storm video from game play to CG. If you fell for it, thats your loss. You will be in for a shock when you play the game at home and it doesn't live up to the video. The CG looked good...I amdmit it. But the gameplay was slow way less than 30 frames a second. And the textures are low res.

Yes they both use the same graphics engine. But the games look different. 360 has more processing power...more ram...embedded ram....and more powerful graphics card. So yes they have a simular look. But Gears of War clearly looks better. But I'm sure when Unreal comes out for the 360 it will look better on the 360 than the ps3.
