Would it be technically possible for a PS3 to run Crysis?

First off all i'm not some stupid sony fanboy whos come to the pc forums to be an idiot. I have just been pondering this recently when looking at the requirements to run the game. Correct me if i'm wrong but isn't the RSX simular to the 7800 series? so thats would be fine. And i'm sure the cell is at least as powerful as a low range dual core, most likely more. That leaves the only problem the system ram, would that hinder it from being able to run it?

I'm not saying it would max it out, but surely it would be able to run the game

Your thoughts?

well yes, the 360 and ps3 could, but the ps3 will be hinder abit because of the horrible ram, it only has 128mb of ram but saying that, devlopers could optomize the system and make it run and look good on the ps3. Not being a fan boy, but the 360 would have a easier job running it because it has a gpu close tp the x1950x pro, and 512 ram, would will help alot with a games like crysis, well help with devlopement, they won't have to take nearly as long when devloping it because the system has many features that allow it to be optimzed faster and easier.LibertySaint

The PS3has more than 128 mb

Memory:

• 256MB XDR Main RAM @3.2GHz
• 256MB GDDR3 VRAM @700MHz

Also the 360 only 512mb shared memory + 10mb embeded vram for graphics

on consoles almost all ram need to be commited to the video and when thats capped at 256 the can be horrible for programmers

opps sorry, i'm using tech spec i heard about a year ago, really 256 xdr, hmm nm, it has the same amount and everything the 360 has for ram, optimizing won't be as hard as i orgnially said and thought,

could u tell me where u got tho specs so i can look at everything else too? just curious. cause mabe the spec i heard awhile back could be way diffrent from now....but i heard 128mb of ram from gamesradar so...idk...

I know i have the owners manual...and look at the 1900 its around the same, just the vram, because on consoles vram doesn't matter as much because of optimization.

the cell is more powerful than dual processor actully. also vistually the cell and help RSX. only problem with PS3 and crysis is the Ram, but if they optimized it some how for the ram i think they can work it out.

well the cell will work becuase look at this http://science.qj.net/World-s-fastest-supercomputer-powered-by-PS3-CELL-chip/pg/49/aid/96421

Look at the 360 Vs Pc for Prey here on GS you will see.

360 vs a mid ranged pc at that time grx card = geforce 6600
