Well, I was thinking that, but they could put the "Cell 3" in the PS4 if made real. It has 2 PPEs and 27 SPEs! I think there is a thread in here about that. I'm on the PS3, so I can't cut and paste.

i totally forgot about that one.

Its just a shame the market only seems to cater for the lowest common denominator isn't it, although the PS3 could potentially outlive the next 2 Xboxes, if only developers put the effort in.

I'd also like to see a Cell motherboard that I could buy, so I could run linux with a lot more RAM!

I more then agree with that, I would love to actually be able to utilize linux without having a massive swap file. Running valgrind has a tendency to eat a swap file alive! Or user expandable RAM for the PS3, it's powerful enough in it's own rights to replace a computer.

Thing is, unfortunately on neutral games (xbox and ps3) like GTA4, Assassins Creed ect. are beeing developed on the technical specs for xbox360, not for the PS3. And the PS3 always get the direct copy

Thats why i prefer PS3 exclusiv titles like Resistance, Motorstorm, MGS, all these games are beeing made on PS3 technical spezifications, impossible to "direct copy" them for the xbox360 !!

I wish the developers would use the PS3 as main mashine for games andnot the xbox360, so games like GTA4 for exapmle would be much better, more space = more content, more details, more clips, bigger story ect.

Its almost the same stupid thing like Blu-ray VS HD DVD, blu-ray always got screwed from neutral studios, cause neutral studios almost always made the transfers on HD DVD lower technical spezifications.
And this is happening to the PS3 (thx to the xbox lower technical specs.) as well.
