P.S. Manni and THELORD, get a room, cause nobody cares about your arguement.

Oh well, Metal Gear Solid 4, Tekken 6, and Parappa The Rapper 3 will be coming out sometime soon….Who gives a damn. The last Splinter Cell Game sucked dead ass! I gotta admit though, the best Splinter Cell game so far was Pandora Tomorrow. Quite comical as well

To me Pandora Tomorrow was the worst Splinter Cell game

The PS3 has the Cell processor which has 1 PowerPC Core and 6 usuable SPE’s (number crunchers). The 6 SPE’s are amazing at doing calculations but they lack two very important things, 1 is direct access to cache memory and 2 branch prediction which is a necessity when writing advanced A.I. code. Since all branch prediction and cache access have to go through the 1 PPC Core you have a potential bottleneck, but more than likely you have to write code in a very different manner that is a serious pain in the butt.

The Xbox360 has the Xenon processor has 3 PowerPC Cores (nearly identical to the one on the Cell) all with access to cache and branch prediction as well as VMX-128 Extensions.

Can the PS3 handle A.I. code of course it can. Is it cost productive to have to recreate a large portion of the code for your game to work well on the PS3 which has much lower penetration rate and a much lower software attach rate? That is up to the developer to decide. Apparently Ubisoft has made it’s decision.

Read my first comment I didn’t pick a fight, I just responded to the personal attacks on me in my later comments, infact for those that are interested in Blu-ray movies the PS3 is good value, i’m not a fanboy I just made a comment from my perspective as a gamer, anyone on the net can make a comment about why they have chosen the PS3 and i’m not the one that’s gonna call them a “ingnorant troll”

Don’t be a hypocrit and a liar, cast your eyes back at my first comment it was not addressed at you and contained no personal attacks.

You started that and i suppose i’m just meant to take it without responding am I?
I’m a construction worker and currently unemployed so i’d like to get paid by MS or Sony but sadly it aint going to happen.

“sorry manni, yes i had 5 360’s, what r u a paid ms shill?, did i buy them all, no, where did i say i bought all 5?”

You didn’t exactly say it and I never said you did but you claimed that,

“im gonna miss not playing halo 3, unless i win the lottery, then i will buy another 360″

and then you said,

“the 3 year warranty, came about only mere weeks ago, all of my experiences with the 5 that broke, YES ITS TRUE, was before that warranty”

The warranty is back dated so if you’d had 5 break on you it would not have cost you anything, so why would you need to win the lottery to replace it?

“and the warranty only covers the RROD nothing else”

The red rings are not an actual fault in themselves they are like an error indicator and would be present for almost any major fault with the console so don’t try and tell me you had different faults that were not covered.

Lets face it you have never even owned a 360, the only reason i wouldn’t go so far as to call you a paid shill is that Sony would never hire someone with as little intelligence as you, you’re clearly just a pathetically deluded fanboy.

Because this story is about gaming. Would you call auto enthusiasts pathetic for debating over whether Nissan pwns Acura? Yikes, just answered my own question

Why do people always feel they have to pick fights with people just because that person chose a different console to their favourite, it’s kind of pathetic!

First off I said,

“Hey IF you are typical of PS3 gamers i’d be playing online had i chosen to buy a PS3 then my choice is even easier to make”

which was clearly not a generalization about PS3 owners but a dig at you, who called me “ignorant” and a “troll” just for choosing a different brand of console.

Now you come out with the old fanboy favorite that you’ve had 5 xbox 360’s break on you and suggest that you’d have to win the lottery to get another even though there is a three year warranty and MS would have replaced them free of charge.

That makes you a fanboy and a liar, I’m glad that I DON’T generalize about gamers as if they all behaved like you I would never play another game.

When people think my comments are wrong and want to list their reasons i’m always happy to debate them but i’m not going to waist any more time responding to personal attacks from liars.

If your Xbox breaks, they send you a new one for free. I sure hope you didn’t buy a brand new one those “5 times” it broke for you. Somehow I find your story a bit hard to believe.

I don’t get it. The system breaks, you call them up.. they ship you a box.

You put the console in the box, and 2-3 weeks later you get it back.

The PS2 repair system was far worse than this experience has been.

Im most definitely not a 360 fanboy by any means but any game coming out multi platform between ps3 or 360, I would get the 360 version…

Hey if you are typical of PS3 gamers i’d be playing online had i chosen to buy a PS3 then my choice is even easier to make, it’s sad that you find it necessary to launch personal attacks on gamers who don’t choose the same console as you.

As for my remarks being “ignorant” i’d like to know how you came to that conclusion? I’ve waited 2 years to join this generation, an ignorant or i’ll informed gamer would have bought a console at launch without weighing up the pros and cons of each system.

If anybody is ignorant it’s you, you’re clearly a fanboy who can’t come to terms with someone choosing a different console over your beloved brand.

Yes the PS3 has lots of great things going for it. but is playing catch up. I will someday buy one too, but not for the cost now, lack of games, No Rumble and dont care for blu-ray. I want a gaming machine. For gaming now the Xbox 360 is the way. its common sence. dont be left high and dry with the PS3.

Also dont flame me, I also own a PSP, PS2, WII and many other past systems and will be getting a PS3 someday. im all about games. When the PS3 has a game i want, ill buy one. til then im more than happy with the Xbox 360.
