agreed completely, time to put the specs to bed and let the games do the talking...

I mean we already knew RSX was at 500/650, so this is nothing new.

I see Version has swung to the other side of his mood pendulum as well.

Sony´s mistake is, once again, the GPU... ok, not a mistake.... but it could be better.

W impress is not a fact for a source.

Alright lets say that Sony indeed screw the GPU but u forgot that PS3 has Cell as well to do some graphic task as well..

No I didn´t forget, chap. It´s just that I was talking only about the GPU.

It's not that Cell is awesome or this or that, it's that RSX@500MHz can still produce some great visuals. Cell is going to be what sets these games apart as time goes on (primarily in gameplay mechanics). And for now, the visuals are best viewed as all RSX. Remember it's not that the RSX's architecture has changed, it's just a *slight* speed downgrade.

IMO totally worth it for a cool-running, silent system with an internal PSU.

PS3 hasn't even been released, some games are looking killer already and people still have to complain about it. If PS3 had been in the market for a year and none of the games looked next gen at all I'd understand this, but it's not like we've seen the best PS3 has to offer already. People are just complaining over something that they don't really know whether it's a bad thing or not when the truth is that we've got yet to see a good number of finished and polished PS3 games to judge it.

Whatever the specs are really don't concern me, because the games speak for there self.

I think your assertion is definitely supported by a few PS3 games, and I think the one that right now stands out the most is Motorstorm. It has wicked visuals, amazing physics (sense of weightiness, the cars reactions to the terrain off of jumps and simply turning, crashing, etc.), and somehow even more outstanding animation. It moves, looks, and feels next gen whenever I watch those videos now, simply spectacular.

And perfectly silent system, very sexy on top of it's already sexy black suit.
