[babyghost]

Of course those specs would look nice next to the old tech. So lets do something different . compare new to new...

---------------------------- PS3---------------------------- Xbox 360-------------
Processor_____ 3.2GHz Cell w/ 7 SPEs _________ 3.2GHz G5 w/ 3 Cores
___________________ 2.0 TFLOPS ___________________ 1.0 TFLOPS

Memory ______ 256MB XDR @ 3.2GHz ________ 512MB GDDR3 @ 700MHz
______________ 256MB GDDR3 @ 700MHz _____ 10MB Embedded DRAM

GPU _________ 550MHz NVIDIA ___________________ 500MHz ATi
Display ______ 1080p Standard ___________________ 1080i Optional
_____________ Dual Screen Output ________________ Single Screen Output

Network ______ 1000BASE-T Ethernet ___________ 100BASE-TX Ethernet
______________ Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g _______________ Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g

Audio ___________ 5.1 Digital ______________________ 5.1 Digital
Wireless Input ___ x7 on Bluetooth 2.0 __________ x4 on 2.4GHz RF
Storage _________ Removable HDD _____________ Removable HDD
_____________________ TBA _________________________ 20GB

Dimensions ____ About 13.5" x 3.25" ____________ About 10.25" x 2.5"

Now those specs don't look as impressive do they?

Here is some of what sony thinks....

8, 2005 - Outspoken Sony Computer Entertainment chief Ken Kutaragi is in the news again. In an interview hosted by Japanese technology site Watch Impress, the father of the PlayStation brand takes another stab at explaining his vision for the PS3 console while also taking a few sharp stabs at the competition.


When asked about the difference between the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Kutaragi responds, "This time, Microsoft has stated clearly that it is going after the PlayStation. However, they're going not after the PlayStation 3, but the PlayStation 2. They were looking at 2, and that's why [Xbox 360] became like that."
Kutaragi reminisces about the unveiling of the original PlayStation and how many compared the system with 3DO, stating that both could do 3D graphics. "It was tough," he states. "Even after we said that the PS1 is actually doing 3D calculations while the other one isn't, people still insisted that they both had CD-ROM drives and 3D graphics. I believe that many people, even when looking at specs, don't understand the differences."

Things are similar this time around, according to Kutaragi, who explains, "This time, people probably won't be able to understand the difference between PS3 and Xbox 360 if the spec charts are just lined up. However, at E3, a suitable number of people said that they were glad they came and saw rather than just looking at the specs. When the PS3 is actually released, this will spread and people will come to understand."

Commenting on the demos shown by Microsoft and Sony at their respective conferences, Kutaragi adds, "One famous reporter let slip, Xbox is 1.5, the PS is more than what I was expecting, so it's 3.5. That's the difference."

I didn't say it...

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

i like them big. just kidding. but baby ghost whered u find that? and yeah the ps3 is better hard ware wise i didnt post anything about ps3 not bc i dont like it i just didnt have any real numbers for the ps3 so thanks for posting that. i my self am still deciding which to get tho so far i like the xbox360 games better, shooting wise. i like tactical games and xbox360 seems to lean towards that genre. tho ps3 still has a year and a half to go and im sure we will find secrets about both consoles on the way. but both are great and make every thing else look like sh*t. either way im not making a decision this year until after my roomate buys xbox360 then ill decide which i want lol.

[IWantWhiteCastle]

why dont you get both...

[angrybrit]

They're not even out yet so it's better not going beserk over such trivial things.

Wait till the game reviews come out for XCox 360 are out then you'll have enough info to make a good decision.

[misterweels]

ps3 way better hehehe. anyone see the killswitch trailer for ps3 its hott the smoke and detail omg. and the gundam trailer too its really really good

[Mr.Big]

If I get either one, I'm probably going to get PS3 because I have a PS2 now and the PS3 is backwards-compatible. And besides, God of War absolutely rocks :D
