The new console war has obviously started, but the amount of bullshit spewed by the xbox side and the degree at which the PS3 side is uninformed both make me want to vomit. Yes, the killzone video was pre-rendered(and maybe that offroad game too), but you know what? That part of the video was not to show PS3's power, it was a demo reel to show what kind of developer support they have. Microsoft only showed video footage.
The main fact is Sony has shown the only real time demonstrations of a "next generation" console. Every single Playstation3 TECH DEMO was shown in real time. This includes Unreal Engine 3, Fight Night, and the demos shown by Phil Harrison (at around 50 min into press conference). Nothing else was in real time.
On the xbox side of things since nothing was shown in real time the only way to judge the power fairly is to look at games developed exclusively for xbox360(Only xbox360, not even PCs). The only videos that people were impressed with are videos that could easily be from their PC counterpart. Rare's games and Dead or Alive 4 are the only games that you can that are definately an example of what the system can do.
