Thats certainly impressive but its taking at least 24 Cell chips to run it (they say the platform is delivering 6 TFLOPS of performance).
I would be fascinated to have a play around with this from an historical POV to be honest, seeing ancient Rome fully rendered and ray traced in real time must be pretty impressive. Imagine displaying this as VR output...

However not to change the subject but in light of that demo being Cell only render (no GPUs) how hard would it be to rasterize this Rome demo in real time if say this would be handled by a first party developer using only the PS3 (Cell+RSX) for the target 1080p and 30 or 60fps?

That is so awesome. I've fantasized about playing with a 3D recreation of ancient Rome.
