xbox-vs-ps3The Xbox360 and PS3 have both been around for a few years now, and have really raised the bar on gaming consoles.  But now that they’ve been out and developers have had a chance to get down-and-dirty with the details, what do they think?  The examiner compiles some numbers on the graphics capabilities and finds the PS3 lacking in several areas, but the most damning parts come from developer statements:

I think [PS3 is] a waste of everybody’s time. Investing in the Cell, investing in the SPE gives you no long-term benefits. There’s nothing there that you’re going to apply to anything else. You’re not going to gain anything except a hatred of the architecture they’ve created. I don’t think they’re going to make money off their box.

I’ve heard rumors in HPC circles that the Cell chip is dead, maybe they’re right?

via Xbox 360 better than PS3? Part one: hardware.
