Lets keep this simple,the ps3 has a cell processor and split ram.the 360 has a powerful GPU and combined ram.games will take longer to make for the ps3 not because the developers are lazy ,it,s because the cell processor is a pain to code for.to make games for the 360 is windows based and developers love that.the next console sony brings out needs to be developer friendly.

@ratnutz,Hardware: Nintendo Wii - 803,000 Nintendo DS - 491,000 Microsoft Xbox 360 - 371,000 Sony PSP - 193,000 Sony PlayStation 3 - 190,000 Sony PlayStation 2 - 136,000

@ratnuts,those numbers i posted are from the NPD report from the month of october.this report comes out every month.the list you refer to is not games sold.i suggest you read this report every month to see how all consoles are doing and the software for them.hard data is what i seek,not speculation.

@ratnutz,like i said in my previous comments,if the cell processor is so powerful then why isn,t there a huge difference in the ps3 and 360 versions? that is what this post is about.the ps3 excusives looks good but they are few and far between.theres a differnce between what looks good and what gamers want Software:october 2008 Fable II (Xbox 360) - 790,000 Wii Fit (Wii) - 487,000 Fallout 3 (Xbox 360) - 375,000 Mario Kart Wii (Wii) - 290,000 Wii Play (Wii) - 282,000 Saints Row 2 (Xbox 360) - 270,000 SOCOM: Confrontation (PS3) - 231,000 LittleBigPlanet (PS3) - 215,000 NBA 2K9 (360) - 202,000 Dead Space (360) - 193,00

@grognard,i agree with you.if cell is the new standard then why do we see almost identical graphics on both consoles? it proves my point that cell is harder to dev for.

@nikgamma,i respect ur opinion but check out these #,s Hardware:october 2008 Nintendo Wii - 803,000 Nintendo DS - 491,000 Microsoft Xbox 360 - 371,000 Sony PSP - 193,000 Sony PlayStation 3 - 190,000 Sony PlayStation 2 - 136,000

By the time developers get use to cell based way of making games for the ps3, newer more advanced graphics engine will be out that will surpass cell.is the 10 year plan a wise plan for sony?

What everyone fails to see is sony needs to make a console that is developer friendly.the developers said back in 2006 that developing games for the ps3 was painstaking.time is not on the developers side.cell base takes longer unlike windows base is kinder to developers.i see alot of angry gamers,but the truth is what it is, GAMES IS WHAT IT COMES DOWN TO AT THE END OF THE DAY.
