On the Playstation 3 running Linux, six of the Cell Broadband Engine's eight SPEs are available and are deployed for ray tracing. The RSX graphics chip normally used to compute images sits idle as 720p or 1080p frames are computed by software and sent directly to the framebuffer. Furthermore, the user can navigate through the scene with the PS3 controller.
8g ram? thats more than a hardcore pc ram and consoles always have waaay less than pc's at the same time period, they run on it more efficiently. as for now a pc with 2 gigs is great and 4g is insane. consoles only have 512mb not even 1gig. so just no. you'd be lucky to see consoles with 2gig ram. hopefully taht is standard
and halo 4 as launch title? please god no :P thats just stupid "finish the fight" bs its going to keep going into mediocrity (as if it hadn't gone far enough)
can't wait if it is true. I fell for Sony's superior blah, blah, blah this generation, missed out on some great games, but then again I got to play some other greats on the PS3. Anyways if holodeck is what I think it is then I am on board!

This JUST in!!! This is all true-- very true! I just confirmed it with my friend who works at a magic eightball factory! Supposedly, there is gonna be an advertisement during the month of December where they ask you to "Holo-deck the halls with cheers of forry- falla ra ra ra- ra ra r rod!!!!
i will wait for xbox666 which will be powered by children tears after facing rrod and will have 111 six cores processors which means it will have a total of 666 processors,the rest is unknown.
a guy at my work has a friend who's fathers sister has a son who has a friend of a friend that works at M$, and i can happily say it is CONFIRMED!!!Always-Honest
what the hell is a frekin holodeck and no ive never seen star trekjaisimar_chelse
It was basically a room on the ship that could simulate practically any environment you wanted. It was the ultimate 24th century analog to the video game. Unfortunately a common plotpoint was to have it malfunction and someone dying or getting hurt. (you'd think Starfleet would ban them after the first couple dozen times this happened)

Would that be the 24th century equivalent to RRoD and Starfleet is just in denial ? :twisted:
Just asked for some more infos, apparently the Microsoft Holodeck is a device using some kind of infra-red laser technology to catch all the moves the player makes IRL, either while standing up or sitting. When sitting, it looks at hands for movements and face for expressions, while standing up it looks at all the body. One Microsoft Holodeck supports as many player that can fit in a 5x5 feet square and you can hook up 4 to the console.Etherninty
:lol: this is just too much! You lost all crediability when you said it would have a blu-ray player and not only that Halo 4!. :lol:
