There are a few factors as to why the PS3 isn't fully cracked yet.

1.) It uses an entirely new and QUITE expensive media. (Blu-ray)

2.) The PS3's hardware is very complicated so they're are a lot of things you have to look at and over come.

3.) Blu-Ray burners and readers for the computer to back-up and burn PS3 games are HELLA expensive. View

I hate Facebook for the fact that our MOM's know about it..and make accounts their also.

I'd rather not have my mom giving me messages and watching what my friends are saying to me..

Facebook is way to popular to moms these days. View

I hope the guy posting this and the guy who wrote the blog realizes that the more you talk about it, the more people find out about it.

So you guys are essentially fueling the fire.

Also it's been cracked for a long time.

But this doesn't make it so you can play actual Wii games without a modchip... And I doubt you will ever be able to without one for a long time, if ever even.

The only thing this really effects is Nintendo's virtual console games, and their Wiiware games. Since they can be downloaded and played on your Wii for free with this. View

How is this the right way?

Just adding more and more chips is no way to advance technology. It's a short cut to more performance. Anyone can add 2 chips of their best "large, very high-performance chips" onto a pcb. And it's actually a bit of a scam. Because it makes many people think their going to get double the performance because it has 2 chips. When in reality it's only going to be a roughly 10-25% performance increase over the single chip version.

AMD/ATI and Nvidia do the same things. It's only that Nvidia has a little better architectures and likes to over price their products because of that.

While ATI lowers their price as much as they can, because they know their cards aren't quite as good as Nvidia's. So it makes ATI look like they design for the mainstream, when in reality the only thing they do different is price it lower so they can actually sell their cards.

This is obviously a stab at Nvidia's upcoming GT200 chip that is a bigger chip size than usual. But if Nvidia wanted, they could put 2 GT200's on a single card and be doing the same thing as ATI lol. (Which they already did with the 9800GX2)

Glad this story shows views from both sides tho. Would of liked to hear Nvidia talk more on the issue, tho they made good points. View

Naw. GT200 will be alot faster.

It is known for sure that the GT200 has an actual physical 512bit bus. While the 4870 only has a 256bit bus that uses ATI's hyperthreading type technique to make it a virtual 512bit. Like a Pentium 4 HT pretending to be dual core.

And Nvidia has almost doubled the performance of it's shaders on the GT200. And the card will have around 1 Billion transistors.

So no matter what, this card is going to be a power house. View

Yeah, Single chip is always the best way to go if you can. Because games aren't every fully optimized for multi-gpu setups. And the drivers for multi-gpu setups aren't very good.

Single chips will always provide they're full performance for all games. No coding needed. View

Well then your not that much of a tech fan.

A lot of people on this site are very interested in news on upcoming technologies. View

Ouch... Only supposed to be around the speed of a 9800GTX?

I feel sorry for Ati =/... Because Nvidia's GT200 chip coming out 2 days after this one is a huge... HUGE ASS performance increase.

Also, the R700 Ati is bringing out in August is only 2 RV770's on a single PCB..

So that means their merely bringing out a competitor for the 9800GX2 at that time lol.....

Wow.... View

That means something actually wrong with your computer, not Firefox. Do you have all the latest updates for you computer. (DirectX, Adobe Flash Player/Shockwave, Java..) View

LOL, a year or so to be reliable?

Graphics cards are almost always reliable right off the shelf. Yeah, newer drivers might help them perform a little bit better down the road. But that doesn't mean there not reliable. View

"So, what can you do with general-purpose GPU (GPGPU) acceleration in Photoshop? We saw the presenter playing with a 2 GB, 442 megapixel image like it was a 5 megapixel image on an 8-core Skulltrail system. Changes made through image zoom and through a new rotate canvas tool were applied almost instantly. Another impressive feature was the import of a 3D model into Photoshop, adding text and paint on a 3D surface and having that surface directly rendered with the 3D models' reflection map."

That part has sold me. lol. As soon as this comes out I'm getting it. This will be awesome.

(This is also a good stab at Intel from Nvidia.) View

They're rolling over sorta like the miles on your car..

Nvidia can't just keep raising the number... 20 years later: The new "Super XXX Quint-High-Def GeForce Extreme 120352 GTX ULTRA"

It just starts to get ridiculous.. and 10,000 is that ridiculous mark. View

spooky205: And there's also the better codec support the 605 has. You can also watch videos from the internet on the 605 and have them show on your TV in real time while it's streaming. It also uses Opera web browser which you can customize with widgets. It's also a fully capable GPS system with the newly introduced update. You just buy the GPS cradle attachment and stick it to your windshield :P.

I thought people cared more about functionality and not style? When did we all turn into "the popular girls"?

RC1 is already released. Which is pretty much a final release.

It's just a last stop measure to catch any conflicts that haven't been reported to them yet. And they'll probably do a few more tweaks before the final release. View

Here's that cnet match :P

Archos 605Wifi vs iPod Touch
http://reviews.cnet.com/437...

I love my Archos 605Wifi 160GB! I want functionality, not sexiness :).

Sure sexiness is good for a one night fling, but functionality is who you wanna be with forever :P. View

I personally think a Pokemon MMO is looong overdue.

Nintendo is crazy for not making it. Them and their stupid fear of online play. (I own a Wii, don't hate on me <_< lol)

A Pokemon MMO would be really fun.. Exploring the vast online 3D world, searching for Pokemon to catch, leveling them up and evolving them, battling other players and participating in big tournaments and Gym Battles. It would make an AMAZING MMO!

A lot of people have brought the idea forward, but it's never gotten past that. =/. (Although they're is one website that is creating a 3D Pokemon MMO without Nintendo's permission. And all the Pokemon are 3d cell shaded :(. And it's also going hell slow.)

But anyways.. I really hope this takes ground one day =/. View

When I looked at the title..
I thought it stood for 360RedRing LOL... I think it's a lot better suiting :P View

--short answer.... Yes

--long answer......Yes, My freaking Archos 605Wifi whoops the iPod Touch's ASS!

Cnet even agrees in they're comparison of the 2.

People are just blind of what else is out they're, because all they see is Apple plastering it's ad's in every nook and cranny. While other companies can't afford to advertise everywhere. View

Piracy isn't destroying anything looser.

There's just to many crap games coming out these days. Plus all the game makers mostly want to get they're stuff out on the current game consoles because they are the "it" thing right now.

Oh and the Xbox 360 has been hacked for a LONG time.. You can download, then burn and play the game on your Xbox 360.

PS3 is the only one that hasn't fully been taken over yet.

Piracy just helps the poor play games, most of the people with money still buy games, a few don't of course.. but that's hardly anything to snap about. View

WAIT!!! lol

Do not buy the GX2.

From the looks of it, this card will surely be faster than a GX2 while still being a single chip card.

Just chill for another 1-3 weeks. The price for them will arrise.

It's supposed to be released on June 18th.. So not far from now. View
