Unclean December 23, 2005 Share Unclean Member December 23, 2005 What, there isn't a PS3 thread in here? What do y'all think of the console that's supposed to come out either Spring of 06 or Fall of 06? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackieChan December 23, 2005 Share JackieChan GC Alumni December 23, 2005 I'm guessing spring, but you never know the future (unless you build yourself a flux compassitor, get some plutonium, and go forward in time with some crazy, yet very helpful scientist to see whenever it gets released).

Brillow_Head December 30, 2005 Share Brillow_Head Member December 30, 2005 Dead today at work so I was doing some design level research on the Cell Processor. Kinda cool but very very technical. 64 bit PowerPC Core with eight separate math cores (SPE's) that handle single, double, floating point mathmatical funcitons. The core uses these to offload easy stuff so the main core can focus on speed. Also, the Cell has a buss so that if more than one Cell is connected, like internet, it can use the spare SPE's from a idle Cell for boost its computational power. Imagine your PS3's using the computational power of a bunch of PS3's linked together. Only barrier right now is the speed and error correction of network infrastructures.

witt December 31, 2005 Share witt Member December 31, 2005 I haven't heard much about the PS3, and I'm pretty disappointed. There was sort of a flurry of info after E3, but since then PS3 talk has been dead. I wonder if that means no spring release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brillow_Head December 31, 2005 Share Brillow_Head Member December 31, 2005 Probably fall. I cant see Sony making any big pushes now that the 360 is out in the market...they dont want to make any release bungles. So I'm betting it wont hit shelves until mid fall.
