Blu-Ray not the only reason for PS3 delay?

Wouldn't be the first time!!

Very true, but it still stupid:smile: ...

I'm sorry if this is a big surprise to some people, Cell is powerful and complicated I'm sure the necessary compiler is even more so complicated. Sony will never catch Microsoft in the development tools category, they are constantly releasing innovative development tools and updates. No one else even comes close to providing a tool like Visual Studio.NET\Live for any development.(Java has some cool stuff though)

Now the part about PS3 launch games not looking as good as 360 games THAT is a little surprising, I’m assuming he is comparing 2nd gen 360 games to PS3 launch games.

Lets start with:
M-CD
Amiga CD32
32X
Jaguar
3DO
Er ... Nuon?

All from big and/or experienced companies. There's only really Nintendo and Sony that haven't done it. So far.

What?! The PS2 documentation at launch was embarrasingly bad, from reports by developers even on this forum. I thought the PS2 example would be the first one to come up... :smile: It got much much better, but initially it was bad.

Agreed, I wonder how things will turn out this time around...

It'll be way better this time thay have a standard GPU to work with and worse case scenario they can really heavily on the PPE to get them through the launch. (1:1 Isn't the PS3 PPE more powerfull than the 360's)
