ok remember back in the day we always just to talk about the power of consoles in 'bits' like the NES was 8 bit, SNES was 32 bit, ps1 32bit, N64 was 64, what was the ps2? 128 bit?

and now what is like the 360, ps3 and like 8800's?

i heard the ps3 was reported to be 8 times as powerful is this complete bull or is it not talking about the 'bits'?

i know this is pointless but was just wondering
 
what about the ps3 it's going to be more powerful than the 360.

and what are the 8800's or are pc graphics cards measured in a completely different way?
 
ah right cool. still yet to play the wii :(. so graphically would you say the 360 is equal to the 8800 or 7950gt or what? or does it surpass them all?

The SNES (best console ever made) has a 16bit memory address bus, not 32 as per the original post.
