GAMER.BLORGE.com has learned exclusively what some of the key points of the Xbox vs PS3 war are, and it's not all about the Halo.
In a recent conversation with an undisclosed developer source, GAMER.BLORGE.com has been made privy to the biggest problems facing developers as they work with the Xbox 360 and the PS3: It's all about the RAM and the processor.
According to their source, it's easier on almost every level to work with the Xbox 360 in the development stage. Due to the older systems large amount of RAM, developers can work with a little more head room and not worry about running out of operating memory.
Where the real problem stem is in the two system's processors. While Xbox games can be tweaked to move up to the PS3, the reverse is not always the case. Due to the PS3's advanced processor, games developed for the Sony backed platform sometimes can't be downgraded to the the 360's chip.
A psychological survival horror game that takes place in 1990s Poland where you play as Tomasz who is searching for his missing friend in the town Jeziorne-Kolonia. A strange substance has taken over the town and is transforming its inhabitants into grotesque monsters.
Game Rant interviews Plants vs. Zombies composer Peter McConnell about honoring the series’ quirky roots, adapting its themes, and now going vinyl.
The score for the first Plants Vs Zombies is such great, iconic music that it has a timeless quality. Not quite the level of Minecraft, but wonderful in its own right.

*checks calendar* this whole dilemma of the 360 development being better and stuff is gonna end approximately in........... yup about 2008.
It should, because if it does'nt stop there, it's the developers that are geting pimped by microsoft.
This is why x360 is the least selling console in the world esp in EU and JAPAN it is dead.
BTW ps3 has 256mb of XDR ram @ 3.2 ghz and 256mb of GDDR 3 at 700mhz
x360 has slow 512mb of ram at 700mhz
ps3 has the advantage with XDR ram .
ps3 has 2x the cache as x360 and is 2x faster
ps3 is 3x as powerful as x360 and CELL = 10x XENON
RSX is also more powerful than xenos which is r420 based
BTW BOTS
LAIR and HS look miles better than anything on x360. Your garbage box 360 would never be able to handle 1000 enemies per screen. At best it could handle 50 enemies per screen
ps3 ==10x x360
@SNAGHELL BOT
xenos is the weakest GFX card amon all 3 systems . It is r420 based

XENOS is 2/3 of RSX ...weakest card . even less powerful than Hollywood(wii's gpu)
The unified shader thing is a hoax and unlike the dedicated shaders of RSX xenos' unified pipelines are indeed very weak
RSX has a texel filrate of 13.2 g/s
XENOS has a texel filrate of 8g/s
RSX can do 136 shader ops per second
XENOS can do 96 shader ops per second
RSX has 32 dedicted pixel shaders and 8 vertex shaders
XENOS has 48 unified shaders
RSX has a clock freqency of 550 HZ
XENOS has a clock frequency of 500MHZ
RSX is DX 9 compatible but supports all future revisions of OPEN GL
XENOS supports DX 9 C+ and supports OPEN GL till 2.0 ONLY
RSX has a diameter of 258mm^2 and is a 90nm chip
7900gtx has a diamter of 196mm^2 and is also a 90nm chip
Xenos has a diameter of 160mm^2 for the mother die and 100mm^2 for the daughter die

PS3 has a total bandwidth of 22g/s + 28g/s ( video + system)
XENOS has a total bandwidth of 22g/s (unified).the edram bandwidth of 256g/s is irrelevant at resolutions above 720p.
even at lower resolutions it makes up for the lack of 360s total bandwidth . However this theory fails in games which reqires intrinsic data processing eg UT3 and DEAD RISING

Sry Rowland I have nothing against you at all my man but this is definitely not the same. To everyone else out there who feels the need to squat on a little innocent PS3 news: STOP THE HATE!!!!!!!
