From what I have read the 4 core limit per cluster still exists even for A72 and ARM's new interconnect IP. I have been thinking more along the lines that Helio x20 could be using a mips i6400 'Warrior' core. These new cpu's can do 6 cores per cluster, and we of course know that Mediatek has a...

Reminiscing a little here, but I remember my old Amiga 1200 always making an almighty 'cracking' noise after a long stint. Used to scare the life out of me sometimes!... Those were the days.

For those interested UK price confirmed for PS3slim at £249.99 here.

Perhaps Microsoft are just going to go with 1 SKU from now on? It has been said that the new 120GB Elite was going to cost £160. And now we have this snippet of info that the Arcade 'placeholder' is being advertised at £160. Could it be that they are in fact refering to the same product?

Agreed... Maybe it was just internet fluff but a Q4 09 release seemed to be on the cards at one stage.

Yeah I too have been surprised and a little disappointed at the titles that have shifted from Q4 09 to Q1/Q2 2010. My delayed must have list includes: Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - March 2010 Gran Turismo 5 - March 2010? Aliens: Colonial Marines - Q1 - Q2 2010 Red Dead: Redemption - March 2010

Ah I think I see. Was thinking that the 2 were exclusive and not necessarily compatible to each other but now I see that in fact a grid setup- multiple servers/systems all working on a common goal could in fact be the central setup that powers the cloud. Once the grid has done it's task it then...

Actually I thought grid computing and cloud computing were quite different? As has been said folding@home would be a classic example of grid computing, where by the end user has a system which is connected via software to a central server. the server sends out the data to be processed by the...

Just checked, they also have another important release at the end of this month- Transformers: Revenge of the fallen on all platforms... Ok I'm not saying I totally believe my own cynical idea but anyway makes you think doesn't it. A bit of attention here and there for Activision right about now...

This is a bit strange for the CEO of Activision to be coming out and saying what has been said. Strange in that he must surely know that their is a high probability that Sony will indeed be lowering the PS3 price later this year in most regions. Perhaps this is as has already been mentioned more...

Would anyone care to speculate on what the "120" refers to on the front of the alleged packaging. First thought was the Hard drive size, however I can't make out what it says next to the numbers.

With the Blu Ray of the Ghostbusters movie also being released in june I wonder if Sony have any plans to do a Blu Ray movie and video game all-in-one pack? Think I remember a past news release about movie/video game blu ray tie ins being a future possibility for Sony.

Really enjoying RE5 so far. Been playing it in Co-op mode online with a friend. Is quite a breath of fresh air to have a game specifically designed to accommodate 2 players working together. Haven't tried single player mode but would imagine the experience and fun factor being way less than...

Would be incredibly brave of Microsoft to release there next console with an HD-DVD drive, or indeed derivative of. I can see the internet headlines already: "Microsoft releases next gen console with dead disc format". Though the idea has a few advantages I'm afraid Microsoft would be handed...

Interesting idea Nano. One that if executed properly could I guess turn into a trojan horse for MS or anyone else for that matter. One of the disadvantges that I can see though is that allowing others to market and sell your product means you lose some of that brand identity that you have...
