Sony: Ps3 'our Biggest Breakthrough Yet'

October 6th, 2005, 18:56 Posted By: wraggster

Sony's CEO Howard Stringer has been singing the praises of PS3. Speaking recently at the CEATEC Japanese electronics show he's called the next-gen console "Our biggest breakthrough yet", enthused about the Cell processor - which "really sets the PS3 apart" - and boldly stated the processor offers "twice the processing power of Xbox 360". Hurrah for another bout of willy waving.
Anyway, according to reports, Stringer went on to heap yet more praise on the Cell microprocessor, saying that "It's simply amazing in a home entertainment device... The PS3 is only the beginning, but it is a monumental technical advance." Can you feel the love?

Moving away from the 'mine's bigger than yours' bravado, he revealed Sony's forthcoming initiative to allow PSP owners to use the handheld's wi-fi functionality to "watch video from home entertainment terminals, anytime, anywhere in the world," a feature which is apparently coming soon.
And there was something about recording TV programmes on digital video recorders and then watching them on PSP courtesy of higher capacity memory sticks, which sounds great. We think.
