I feel shafted for buying the game... loading times and simulation times are absurd. I don't like pirating, even when I own the game.... but in this case I should have kept the cfw and just pirated NHL 13 :( and simulation times for example are twice as long as X360 wth. Should have just gone to DEX from CFW

Gaming streaming like Steam on the PC is the next evolution in both PC and Console gaming. I would expect minimal game hardware to be manufactured and more online download, install then play just as we do with PC gaming.

In other word, next gen XBOX and PS4 are going to be little PCs but inside a console. So tell me why should I give up my Personal Computer for these new consoles that will be many years behind the PC when released :confused: :cool:

PS3: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_3_hardware#Configurations

I wasn't implying that the console actually took 190w, but considering the XBOX 360 started with a 203w (now 115w) PSU and the PS3 started with a 380w (now 190w) PSU, who is the power winner here? Unless Sony really oversizes their PSUs which must cost a decent amount of money to do, it seems like the XBOX takes less based solely on power supply specifications.

PS3 has had a 40nm RSX and 45nm CBE for a while now, as well as XBOX 360 and its 45nm XCGPU.

O boy the good ol trusted wiki. According to them mine takes 250w LMFAO. As i have said i never seen it over 90w and it idles that too.

I did see this site and maybe the games i do play on the PS3 which is very rare and just the odd one here and there. These tested GTA and for the PC at least it is CPU hungry which would explain the power usage they got which still is no were to what wiki says...
