TheMightyEthan Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 What's wrong with X86 in a console? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 They generally lack in power, being much more general chips built for word processing, than extreme number crunching called upon by consoles. (Which is why the Cell came out tops in power this gen as it could also offload from the GPU, where in current computers the GPU is called upon to offload from the CPU) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 I agree with Dean. Cell makes a lot of sense to stick with now that devs are used to it. Especially given how scalable the system is. Making a more powerful cell is as simple as gaffer taping more cells together. Sony have (I hope) learned a lot from the PS3 with regard to not locking down RAM to certain functions (and putting more in). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faiblesse Des Sens Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 It's funny for a second until you remember what the ending of the game really is and realize that the alternate ending is basically the same thing but with humor added in.
