New PS3 film called Real Time

www.ps3films.com/realtime.mov

PlayStation 3 have created a three minute film called 'Real Time' which visually illustrates how real life can be simulated via a new function of the forthcoming console: Real Time Physics.

The subjects of the film are two teenage amateur lightweight boxers as they prepare for a fight. A mysterious woman's voice commentates as the boxers size each other up before a bout of sparring. She explains the benefits of PlayStation 3's real time technology, which is illustrated by high definition, super slo-motion footage.

In the past, gaming devices were pre-programmed -- once you had worked out how to defeat them they were powerless. Using a PlayStation 3 is just like facing a human opponent. Its ability to respond makes it the most deadly competitor you will ever face.

Further innovative films to illustrate the exciting new features of the PlayStation 3 are set to follow, featuring subject matter as diverse as: a peculiar hoarder, the new craze of 'speed stacking', an elderly womans apartment exploding and extreme BMX'ing.

Now, all thats left to be seen, is if this is true or not, game companys are always promiseing innovations, and then they release what we have seen already, the only thing that has changed is a shiny new glow, thats it, the outside is different, but the inside is still the same, I really hope PS3 delivers on this.

No, current consoles inclusing the 360 are pre-programmed meaning they can only do what they have been programmed to do. The ps3 is more powerful, it can interact with you, it's behaviour is not predictable, it is just like AI.

The point being made is now interaction doesnt have to be based on a limited set of instructions. Now, you can have more organic random reaction. In Motorstorm, the racers leave tracks that stay through multiple laps. This changes dynamically and forces the computer to try and find a new line through the curves rather than blindly following the same path every single time you race them like in some other racing games.
