I thought the title said "Masturbating the Cell"

Hey everyone. I got an HD PVR for Christmas and I'm so stoked, plan to have a commentary out today. Only problem is that I have few subscribers (you guys know how hard it is to get subs, so I wont go in depth about that). One really great Christmas present would be a couple of subs on my account (thumbs this up so others can see). I made a skype and a twitter to keep in touch with my subs and fans. Ive already posted a couple of videos on my channel. Please help me out and I wont disappoint you.

@AndresPetMonkey The only two multiplatform games I know that make reasonable use of the SPEs are Battlefield 3 and Split Second. Still, it's nowhere near the usage from franchises like Uncharted, Killzone or Gran Turismo. That's what I meant, multiplatform developers may occasionally make small use of them, but none will invest on it like PS3-exclusive developers do.

@NewLynxS Quite a few multiplatform devs now use the SPES on the ps3. DICE with Battlefield 3 for it's anti-aliasing and lighting techniques for example.

@humbert0acevedo it wasnt a fanboyish or rude you spoke the truth

[humbert0acevedo]

@MICROSOFTGAMESTUDIO1 Well not to sound like a fanboy or being rude, but the Xbox ain't exactly today's new thing. Both consoles are very old, but the PS3 still has some more years in it.

@paulthecoolest true but for a aging console the ps3 is pretty good

@slayer3slipknot buddy the videos are getting to ur head calm down..both the ps3 nd xbox  will NEVER catch upto the pcs just buy any solid gpu ..and try to play something on it ,it will BLOW YOUR MIND..

@slayer3slipknot Cell is a $38 PowerPC processor from 2005. It's nothing compared to what's available today.

Also, you may think those PS3 exclusives are the best looking games on the artistic aspect, which is all about personal opinion. But on the technical aspect, they are nothing compared to the PC versions of Far Cry 2, Just Cause 2 and Metro 2033, for example. Let alone compared to exclusives like Crysis and S.T.A.L.K.E.R..

Those are amazing graphics its funny to hear pc,360 gamers say that a ps3 GPU is shit but then games like uncharted,killzone,GOW3 and more exclusives are the best looking games on the market why because of the CELL sure its a bitch to program but now its getting better 4 years ago ps3 graphics weren't very special then as sony figures out how to harness the CELL's power they release these games and it gives people the WOW feeling
