Think he meant to say it’s a multi core CPU not actual physical CPU’s. In terms of hardware its been debated to death before, there really isn’t a lot in it, the PS3 does have this multi core cell processor that ‘apparently’ offers something that the 360 doesn’t, but I hardly believe that PS3 exclusives couldn’t run on the 360. Its just in their current form porting them across would, or could require some major rewriting of code.
Still would like to see how they’d get killzone 3 over to the 360, have to be some pretty good compression, doesn’t Killzone 3 use a fairly good chunk of the capacity of a blu ray? I know MGS 4 was fairly bulky.
What beggars belief is how MS have, and its been mentioned a few times now seem to have gone off in search for motion control gaming and not offering equal core and casual gaming experiences considering its core gamers that essentially provided them with much of their success in the console market. I mean lets not forget, MS and its xbox line of consoles are out to make money and capture as much audience as it can. And motion controlling is just one way to grab attention of maybe a less casual gamer. Now you can’t blame them for this. Sony have done just the same with PS Move, albeit seems that is geared towards shoehorning or building core games into motion controlled option games, such as Heavy Rain as a classic example.
But MS aren’t offering enough to keep those core gamers from looking further a field. And it appears many are, and with the recent price drop of a PS3, many 360 owners could now consider a PS3 as a viable and quick way to dip into a great catalogue of core games that they have yet to play.
Regardless of hardware specs, or even equalling mutli platform titles, the 360 clearly isn’t fulfilling the basic requirements of core game exclusive experiences. The 360 online gameplay, its gamepad and excellent back catalogue of previous exclusives and equally as good multi platform titles have ensured it will continue to be a well thought after gaming console, even the motion controlling will see it grow with a new audience, however the lack of tantalising exclusives for 360 owners this year could (no proof of this) leave many with a bit of a bitter taste and move over to the Sony platform. Hope MS knows what its doing.. It’ll need its core gamers come next gen xbox..!!
the rest is just pure fanboy poo..... both consoles have there pro's and con's and neither is more powerfull or vastly supperior than the other.....
