Playstation Edge ~~

I believe will allow developers to tap the real power of the PS3. It'll also shut down the excuses developers give that PS3 is too hard to develop for

What are your thoughts?

EDIT: FOUND A DEMO OF EDGE!

Riiiight. :roll:

Release teh powah!!! 

Still doesn't help that the ps3 cell wasn't really designed to be used for gaming or general processing in general, thats the main problem which no toolkit can really fix because you still have to work around that no matter what. It will help but won't be dramatic like people think it is, i've seen the edge myself and whilst it does bring up the current level needed to help developers it doesn't bring it anywhere near the other consoles toolkits.

Exactly!

They won because they had the better library and superior market share.

And guess who has that this gen?

I'm sure it will help but I don't see it pushing the PS3 far ahead (or even ahead period) of the 360, or PC for that matter. Its just that the cell is starting to seem more and more like one of those cool ideas that never worked out, like the Delorean and Powerglove (okay so the powerglove was never a good idea).

^^ found a demo of a small bit that Edge can doE_x_i_l_e

you know they made that in a very very short space of time.

Getaway will most likely be one of the greatest looking games on a console period

this realtime demo completely blew me away aswelll

i hope the gameplay is really good.  Hopefully they've learnt from their mistakes with the first iterations of the franchise.

that demo is really impressive, how come no one ever talks about it? or is it just old?Flame1

God Of War, Metal Gear Solid, FFXII, Jak, Ratchet, FFX, DMC, Gran Turismo 4 (In 1080i)...yeah, it wasn't BS.

no you're mistaken pundog. There's a huuuge difference betweeen the vids posted on this thread and the killzone 2 TRAILER. 

The killzone 2 trailer was a trailer, which was composed of entirely cgi. it was supposed to be a estimation of what the game will end up looking like. This wasn't explained at first and sony kinda lost some cred from people who pay attention to all this commotion.

The getaway demo is realtime, u'know what that means dont you? 

the camera's perspective is clearly manipulated in that vid.

well considering that that demo was created in about 2 weeks or so, i think edge is probably gonna help a tad bit  

well considering that was built in 2 weeks by 2 programmers 1 artist .. i say that'll help a LOTE_x_i_l_e

Yeah the resources of the demo were taken from getaway (which is already in testing builds) they are working on, the programmers were used to implement the resources using edge and the artist was used to make use the animation models were correct.
