HDMI IN?
NUI Always Present?
I think the 3Gb / 2 Cores is also going to pan out to be true
I so desperately wanted Durango to be within 10% or so of Orbis, but even assuming EDRAM offsets enought of the RAM Bandwidth to allow that to occur, the reserved resources plus the 50% deficiency in GPU CU's means that I can't see how practically we aren't going to have considerably different render targets..
(the video/audio blocks mean crapola, and the DME or whatever it is just isn't going to be the 'daves insanity sauce' required to gain back that lost ground.
The issue I have is Sony's dire approach to software on the PS3, it took my 4 hours to get GT5 installed from scratch again, not to mention the 2 hours trying to fix error 8002f281 which resulted in having to reformat the HDD etc.. But if Vita shows that they are improving rapidly.. so perhaps I can have faith that Orbis is going to restore Sony to good financial health..
I can't imagine too many people on here sticking with MS when the face-offs are ridiculously in favour of Orbis.. And if Sony get XGC and other core OS features right (like in-game music selection etc) then I'm happy with that..
The thing with all this set top box crap is that it only works in a subset of regions, and you are really trying to overcome things like iPADs in delivering content to people in the front room, which has the added benefit of having it's own screen.. if my missus popped up facebook stuff while I'm watching Formula 1, or any other overlaid shit, I'd throw the thing out the window..
