The CELL processor was an engineering masterpiece. It's a shame its full potential wasn't realized.

[Essu_]

Valve said they won't develop for PS3.
Hah, 2010-2011 comes; "HEY, WE'RE GIVING THE PS3 "FULL" STEAM SUPPORT WITH PORTAL 2!"

[KyudoKun]

To think that this was uploaded 7 years ago.. I feel old now.

[eldonengleman]

These videos were so good! They're so in-depth! I love watching them! I wish they'd do the same thing for the current gen consoles :(

[exmerion]

The codec on this video is nuts for 2009

[mariusmuller]

There was actually a supercomputer build out of hundreds of PS3's

[oppak]

Im watching this on 2017 who else does this😂

[Josh.Davidson]

You showed the Xenos GPU when talking about the Xenon CPU at 2:50... lol

[FamilyGuy]

Why can't we all get along. We're all gamer's. Gamer's is one word to define all of us. We all love video games and we all love to game so why can't we just do that, we're all gamer's. If you play the Wii, Xbox, PS3, PC, Dream cast, PSP, Ds, you are a gamer. We are one big family and we need to defend gaming today cause a few months ago my dad was watching the news and they were talking about violence and video games. Are we just going to let them talk about how video games cause violence or are we going to defend the gaming community?

[chrissteadman]

I've played both systems and I like 360

The graphics look better

The controller

It's just an opinion

[ChrisThePlayer]

So whats the difference between the PS3's Cell CPU & the 360's CPU? why do people say that the Cell is way more powerful than the Xenon CPU? as far as i know the Cell Broadband Engine has 6 SPE's & each SPE has 1 thread so i guess it has a total of 6 threads like 360

[usul]

SPEs are very different types of processors when it comes to the types of programming and math and processing. The Cell Processor is capable of theoretically about 2 or 3 times as much math as the Xenon CPU. I know on Uncharted 2 and 3 they did a bunch of graphics type work on the cell processor that could not have been done on the Xenon CPU.
The Xbox One/PS4 are both going to use simple x86-64 CPUs and powerful GPUs probably handling most of the grunt work.

[LegendaryprogamerPlayz]

0:48 now I know why it's called Nintendo 64 😂😂

[masona.]

Look, I've got nothing against the PS3, but when it comes to amazing visuals, many people seem to overlook Halo: Reach.

[jackvos]

Even though the Xbox has a better CPU, in 2009 the PS3 showed POTENTIAL. So now he's judging what's better by the freaking POTENTIAL!!!!

[ChrisThePlayer]

The PS3 was truly a powerhouse. When i sold my 360 and got my PS3, the power difference was immediately noticeable the moment i played God of War 3, Uncharted 2, Heavy Rain, Killzone 2 i mean PS3 was and still shits on 360 in quality exclusives and graphical prowess

[RobloxAndy]

when this video was made, I was playing on the original xbox. now i'm playing on my dream gaming pc. how time flies is fucking insane man

[JZS-]

I got the Xbox One X with a 4K UHD HDR Tv with instant game response mode launching every time you start a game and a bose home audio system. How times gave changed

[Feyser]

I have both consoles and I prefer to play the same game on the xbox 360, maybe PS3is more powerful but it s not making the difference when playing.

[brodyzerafa]

And then the Xbox 360 Slim smashed PS3 in the face
