http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_17342.htmlPS3 = Cell processor (supposely about 1000 times faster than the PS2 processor), Nvidia (Graphicschip) and Blue-Ray Discs (Between 20 and 200 GB of storage on a disc)Discuss, what do you guys think about this, sounds pretty good to meIBM working together with Sony and Nvidia should be a good team, creating a powerful console.... can't wait to see the results!

now if only they had good games...No PS3 games have been announced...Anyway, I think it's too early too call how this is gonna turn out. Plus, wasn't it Sony, IBM, and Toshiba who are making the Cell? I don't think Nvidia was involved.

so maybe a Final Fantasy game that's about 100 hours long?
:DFF in 100 hours would be great, as long as they dont repeat some thing over and over (70 hours of battle, 30 hours of story?...i'd love to have a lot of story, but awesome boss (secret ultimate bosses) battles!)
