Think of 3D movies like Toy Story etc. Those aren't programmed in a language like C++, fed a script and then executed like a game is - you can't just pause and shift the camera angle. They are rendered at whatever speed they can be, speed up to "real time", and recorded.

It also has a CPU and GPU on the one chip, I believe. And 8 cores is for multi tasking, not really raw gaming (even today gaming struggles to take true advantage of multi core systems). Those 8 cores could also cover both GPU and CPU.

Which isn't necessarily a huge indication of performance (using Intel's CPUs with ondie GPUs as a benchmark isn't that relevant as they are not built to be used in a gaming console), but it does put certain limitations on what you can expect.

The fact AMD are building a similar style chip for both the PS4 and XB1 suggests both Sony and MS have recognized that selling to the masses is about content and features, not raw power. Both AMD, both X86, both blu-ray - the differences will be on the layer after hardware (content, features, marketing, pricing).

But the 8GB of ram is a good win and again speaks to the features vs raw power remark - as more memory means more content for games.

These systems are built to expand the world of console games, and make games easier to produce - the two biggest complains developers have always had with consoles were difficulty programming for the architecture, and a lack of system memory. Both systems address both of these concerns.

Looks absolutely incredible. Hopefully it isn't just CGI though.

Man that is a great look and i just hope next year's Ncaa and Madden will wow us with all the features and real time injuries with new injury anamations to go along with Madden allow Ncaa to send every player that is leaving their schools to go into Madden along with the players stats and injury history of all that has suffered big injuries. Pre existing injury meaning if that player suffers and injury that has him out like a bad knee and he went down in the bowl game of his SR year and it should effect his draft because he his still recovering frm his injury. That is if someone still wants him. Willis MaGahee anybody...
