One day people will understand that today the innovation conflict has shifted from the more powerful GPU to the more intuitive and versatile input method.

Let PS3 battle X360 the HW specs battle while the Wii brings true innovation.

Atleast the copper(co-processor) was included with every classic Amiga.

Monkey Kong Country would not be possible on the A500 in all its beauty. So there is my counter point the pretty graphics argument.

Pre-rendered CGI graphics+ Brian the Lion's effects would do it.

It was just superior in many was unquestionably despite the weaker cpu much like what we have with the 360 & PS3 debates...

These days, it should be system platform vs system platform. Both CPUs and modern GPUs are programmable devices. I don't disagree with you that a GPU could cover some of CPU's shortcomings. On PS3’s case, SPEs covers RSX’s design issues.


Ok, now show me one game that does both. This is my point. Even the PS3 can high-light particular technical superiorities over the 360, but show me games that actually use it all. This is where the 360 shines over the PS3, this is where the SNES shines over the Amiga.

On paper, the orignal Xbox was superior to the Gamecube in every way, in actuallity, the Gamecube pushed more in-game real-world polygons.

Yes, we should look at the system as a whole, I agree. I'm amazed that you semi-defended the PS3 there. But infact, that is my point and that is why the PS3 is not superior to the 360 when looked at as a whole system. This is what MikeB needs to come to grips with, not me.
