I think you underestimate the upsides of the ESRAM and the Xbox memory system. It should be able to provide at least some level of help to shrink the performance gaps based on the high level specs.

You honestly believe that Sony won't have any such policies of their own??

I don't like the lighting/shading either. Geometry amount and animation are okay. The human head was terrible, especially the ears and the overly smooth facial features.

It was canceled, or remains in development hell with the Voltron and Robotech movies, does not matter. If PR is a big hit they'll probably be resurrected ;)

Abrams did Super 8 too which had much better story and characters on top of the spectacle, but it made far less money compared to the first Trek. The box office dictated the direction for the sequel....

You can keep the necessary data duplicated on the cloud by the developer. Upload the game levels, meshes, textures etc. and even update them.

Maybe that won't be necessary; but the storage should work for user videos and other stuff too. It could make sense to build a content agnostic system - we'd need to see statistics and other data to...

Yes, that's what I'm saying. Once you run out of HDD space the system will erase the extra parts of the game you played least recently. If you decide to load it up again there'll be the base install...

You don't even need that, the cloud backup may be content agnostic completely. Dynamically allocate space to subscribers like Google Drive or whatever.

I think it will be full installs, but the OS will back up the contents to the cloud and free up space when necessary. It's reasonable to assume that most games will be playable with a minimum base...

The calculations offloaded to the cloud don't have to be immediate and realtime. Sure, it would take more complex types of games like RPGs and such, but isn't that something we would like to see?

So don't you see the inherent value difference between the two products?

Sure, the more focused you are on gaming, the less it should matter to you personally.

I think the second-install fee is a fair move. You can still borrow it from a friend and play it cheaper than if you were to buy it new, or buy it used if you really want to.

Was a pretty obvious step after the success of the web miniseries and the Spartan Ops stuff. They've had a LOT of youtube views.

It can also build up the eventual movie.

I think the gamma is screwed in all the streamed movies, I'd wait for direct feed stuff.

Also wait to decide what is CG.

Yeah, MMOs as well, but I expect only a few at first to probe responses. They'd need to get the PC crowd to move to build up a market, IMHO.
