Coming from someone who cant even start a sentence correctly? Watch the video, it shows that XDR is a great form of memory, and when paired with DDR3, becomes even better, It's just up too Developers too make use of it.

I'm not into programming, but from what I could take out of that video, XDR is a step up from DDR, seems to be designed for multi core processing and will perform better in graphical applications. What makes ddr better?

people like him doesnt like to change which is why he prob stuck with xbox 360 because xbox 360 is no change from the original xbox while ps3 is a big change from ps2.

xbox 360 has 512 ddr3

ps3 has 256 XDR and 256 ddr3.

from what i heard having two 256 ram is a lot more better than a one 512 ram.

I find it funny how you all bash him when in reality he's probably one of the more unbiased and informed forum posters and if anything, seems to prefer the ps3 over the x360...so him saying xdr isn't great, I'd take his word for it.

yes its fast but i think the trouble is the ps3 doesnt have much of it...

256 i think and 256 other..

if the exclusives are anything to go by however devs are making good use of what they have ..
