Sony Computer Entertainment’s Exec VP Phil Harrison made some impressively bold statements this week about the capacity of the PS3, stating that the current PS3 launch titles are not using even half of it’s processing capacity, and that ‚ÄúNobody will ever use 100 percent of its capability.‚Äù
That’s a strong statement to make. I expect as the manufacturer of a gaming console you’d expect developers to use it’s full capacity at some point, at least a couple of years after it’s launch anyway (which is typical for consoles – current releases of latest PS2 games are only just reaching the point where they are pushing the PS2 to it’s max).
