GF4 cannot do Ray Tracing (Which is the lighting type used in FF the movie) very well, and im not even going to mention the NURBs used in the models of FF

GF4 cannot EVER do FF:TSWI

Any peice of silicon with any bit of processing power can do ray tracing or any kind of 3d rendering technique. The GeForce4 can render FF:TSW. The issue here is speed, not the capability to render. You should distinguish between rendering and real time rendering... or in your simple terms, "do" and real time "do" - ing.

4 Controller Ports
1 Internal  HDD Plus Internet Ready
Plus

The PS3 has replaced the disc-tray of the PS2 with a disc-slot, similar to those on some current DVD-players. It has support for several media: 650 MB CDs, 4.7 GB single-layer DVDs, 9 GB dual-layer DVDs, and the new Blu-ray Disc (BRD) format pioneered in part by Sony Corp..

potential for Backwards compatability PSX and PS2

ME RIKEY VERY MUCH :D

I didn\'t say it could\'t do it, it possibly could but it would be too slow to get a decent frame rate

All this tech talk brings up an interesting problem.By the time the next generation of consoles(or more likely the generation after that)rolls around,the devs wont be held back by hardware anymore,the problem will be time and man power.Sure you have a system with the power to create an entire living breathing planet,but how long will that take to program?Still a very nice problem to be saddled with.:)

I have a Q for you, when ps3 is released, will this forum keep it\'s name? Or will it be psx3central.com or something? If that\'s the case, it might be a good idea to buy the name in advance.

Until then this kind f technology would be much cheaper than todays standards.
I also expect PCs to evolve in 2006  and be as good as this technology.If not better.Remember how much powerfull  PCs were in 2000 compared to a PSX?
Thats why I am not that much excited about the current PS3 information.

???

It\'s a fact that each time a system\'s design is finalized, they start with the design process for the next one. And those words from Sony are just PR.


Ah, yeah, welcome to the boards LCPD :)
