Here is something that catched my eye:

Real time calculations of graphics and other elements in a game is not new but in the past technology has limited how many real time calculations can actually take place in a game at any given moment. Anything created in real time however has the ability to change, adapt and be different from moment to moment. To run multiple real time calculations requires huge amounts of processing power – something that has not been available in the past. Thanks to the Cell™ processor with its advanced multi-core processing, PLAYSTATION®3 has a huge processing capacity and is now capable of handling many many more real time calculations in games than previous generations of gaming devices. This means that PLAYSTATION®3 is capable of creating richer, more detailed and less predictable game experiences than has been possible in the past.
