Talking the talk is worthless, no matter if it's Sony devs or MS devs doing the talking. Let's see them walking the walk instead.MBDF said:Sounds like he's enthusiastic about the next generation PlayStation, and why not... are developers not allowed to express their feelings. (this is directed towards those comments about it being no more than PR drivel)

Of course, particulary with PS3 that is going to be difficult, seeing as the launch is some ways off still (and no date set either, publically at least). Devs will not be able/allowed to show their work on final hardware for months, so until then we can't judge how good the hardware really is. Devs being "enthusiastic" may count for nothing, if that enthusiasm is purely fuelled by Sony/MS money...
MBDF said:I agree, though I think Kaz is just genuinely exited.... as is, yes, Allard, and co. about the prospects that their respective system brings to the table... but yeah, it is part of their job to sell products.... though it helps that it's a product they believe in and not a new pair of Nike's... what I mean is I'm sure they are as exited as we are, and that's a good thing.
Though sometimes yes... a little too exited
jvd said:well call me excited , i can't wati to play a game with one blue car zoomed relaly close and no back rounds or track
mckmas8808 said:How can you say they may be too excited when you haven't seen what they have been able to do. We here are very defensive because we don't want to get our hopes up only to be kicked down with dissappointed games. They know what they are creating we don't.
Let me show you what GT5 looks like now. Keep in mind this game is at least one year away and has not even closely seen the RSX or the RSX -> CELL connectivity.
I know bad quality. This is NOT direct feed.
pakpassion said:i dont believe how RSX and CELL are connected has anything to do with how good the games will look. that will depend on RSX.
mckmas8808 said:So, are you saying that the cars will probably not look like this on the track?
jvd said:Probably not esp if its laucnhed anytime near the ps3 launch. Its just a car on a black backround with no physics or other cars .
The question is can they keep that model quality with 10 other cars on the track with physics , collison , crowds and engrousing backrounds ?
This video doesn't prove they can . Its just one car on a backround and we are 6 months away from a rumored launch.
*Please note GT5 will look better than this. We all know this. The Mazda and Mitsubishi Lancer are the only GT5 model cars. Also notice the movements of the pit crew at the end. *drools*

Err, physics and AI?
I agree, the CPU doesn't matter that much.
Some of the most interesting footage and information came at the end of the piece, when Young talked about the latest iteration of the Medal Of Honor series for PlayStation 3, currently in development at EA Los Angeles. He revealed that, while still early in development, the PS3 version of the game was already fill-rate bound, leaving 4 SPUs of the PlayStation 3 ready to be used for code-powered effects such as physics, particles, AI, and so on.
He also advanced his theory that, while only 20% of the processing power would be used for processes other than rendering in the current generation, as much as 50% would be available for AI, physics, and other such tasks in the next generation. This would hopefully lead to a much more sophisticated experience that isn't just better graphics running on a similar codebase, and while doing this, Electronic Arts is "trying to hold to a [budget] increase of 50% over the current generation" for next generation console titles.
