That doesn't leave us with any RPGs. We know that Mistwalker, Q Entertainment and Square Enix are all working on RPGs so I'm sure we'll at least one of the following: Lost Odyssey, Ninty Nine Nights, Final Fantasy XI (my money is on FFXI and another one)

Soul Calibur III and Heavenly Sword are both Ps3 exclusives, also the games from Team Ninja ("Ninja Gaiden Black, and DOA4") have not been confirmed for the 360.

You don;'t ever get RPG's at release because of the size of the games, correct em if I'm wrong.

Sorry guys it shouldn't have read launch titles, it should have been something like "Games in development."

The GAME DEMOS how ever were nothing more than pre-rendered CG Cut-scenes. These were designed to display what the PS3 developers think they will be able to accomplish with the PS3's hardware, and provide an idea as to the feelings they would like their games to convey.


I still think that just with one cell processor you can render in real time those graphics....

C'mon people, PS3 will own

Overall floating-point capability
Despite the fact that TFLOPS numbers presented and used in a very unusual, non-scientific, pure marketing manner here, we should mention it as part of the official details.

 
Sony comparison of PS3 performance in FLOPS with Xbox 360.In a slide show at their E3 conference, Sony presented the "overall floating point capability" of the PlayStation 3, and compared it to other gaming hardware. The presentation claimed the PS3 to be capable of 2.18 TFLOPS, the Xbox 360 1.15 TFLOPS, and an "average" PC about 0.08 TFLOPS. In their official press release, the same statistic was reported to be 2 TFLOPS. It's possible that the figures are rounded estimations. At this stage it is unclear how these numbers were calculated, possibly being nothing more than a creative addition of the theoretical peak floating point capabilities of all the processing units in the Cell CPU and the RSX GPU. Floating point performance is a single-dimensional metric for measuring one computer against another. This means that it should not be taken as the only (or even the single most important) indicator of one game console's capabilities over another's, but rather as a comparison of one facet of their respective performance - a very imprecise one.

Okay, but no one has been able to answer this to my satisfaction. What will be the form factor of the removable hard drive? I suspect that it will be 2.5 as in micro\mini\ AKA Laptop hard drive, which as far as upgadeability is concerned will affect the price and limit the maximum size availiable. So does anyone know for sure if it's a small or regular size IDE eh? Eh? Anyone? As of right now the largest availiable micro is 100gb and it retails for about $150, but that's not soo bad, unless you consider how cheap you can get a regular size 100Gb for.

Thought I should mention that the Killzone PS3 demo was in fact confirmed a real time render. Albiet only at 5fps, it was upped to 60fps for the showing. Gotta love alpha hardware.

Not quite, it was pre-rendered then ran on the hardware realtime sort of like a cutscene and it was going at 5 fps, Theres a difference.

Yeah, Here is a short little paragraph explaining it very nicely.

Now that I looked at what you said it's actually what I meant so I'm agreeing with you, anyways 60FPS is just a unrealistic goal.
