PS3 Only Using 20-25% Of Power So Far

[BALLAHOLLIC]

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>PS3 games like Resistance: Fall of Man and the upcoming Motorstorm already look fantastic. Sony CEO Howard Stringer (right) argues that these games are barely using 25% of the system's "bandwidth." He also thinks Sony can break even on PS3 costs at the end of this year.In a new interview with CNET, Sony CEO Sir Howard Stringer shared his feelings on how the PlayStation 3 has been faring thus far and what he sees for the future of the PlayStation business.Although there was a lot of negativity surrounding Sony from E3 up until launch last year, and the PS3 was hurt by shortages of blue laser diodes, Stringer believes that everything turned out rather well. "... We're now very comfortable with our research program for PlayStation 3, which one researcher recently described as the Mercedes of games players, for obvious reasons. The million is more than we delivered of PlayStation 2 so, for all the anxiety, I think PlayStation 3 is well on the way to living up to that promise. That's a good sign," he remarked.</div>Honestly, I can't believe how amazing it looks already at 25%. When it reaches 100, it may look like live TV.

I tried to tell people PS3 is going to be better than any console...but they insisted that it will be no better than XBOX 360.

It won't affect the graphics that much, moreso the power and stuff like that.PS3's will blow up anyways at that much power!!!

Some guy at EB Games told me that the graphics are only at 30% It's like when the XBOX first came out and the GFX were decent. Then in 1-2 years they started getting insane.

Every console does that though. The 360's graphics will improve as well. But lately I've been caring a lot less about graphics. It's nice but if the game isn't fun and something you can play for a while, then it's only good for an hour or so.

The ps3 has 9 processing cores that mean it could kill my computer by just looking at it hell yeah games aren't up to the full quality yet.I think they won't be for games like madden and such that are made on more than the ps3 because it would take too much time on the ps3 version than any other version.and the ps3 games are in blu ray the ps3 is definately going to be the best console but sony is losing too much money on it. so thats why they aren't really going to win this 5years.

They don't even know what they are talking about.

PS3 will definetly turn out to be the best, most of the good games are still to come.

 

[Something-To-Say]

So what then? They're going to make some new form of game that somehow takes more power? Wtf?

 

[ElMaster]

They were talking yesterday in G4 about how the PS3 has been a failure so far, and the huge gap the 360 has on PS3 will decrease with time, but it will never disappear. In other words, they said the 360 will win this next-gen war.

Of course it's going to beat out the PS3, it's 300 bucks cheaper. Every person I have talked to that has both systems says that the PS3 is better now, and will still be better years from now.Most of the people who take the 360 over the PS3 have either never played one, or played the worst game made NBA 07 at Wal Mart. I'm not being biased, because I could care less which system wins. I plan on buying an XBOX 360 in the near future, I'm just basing it on what I have been told.
