Okay, but not in those words. Kutaragi has
praised the PS3 as a super-computer built solely for entertainment—a first, he claims. He stressed that the system is
no mere "game machine", highlighting the Cell processor's ability to perform such tasks as scaling up standard video to
HD resolutions. Apparently, the PS3 will also allow users to make protected rips of their DVDs.
Of course, Kutaragi also took the time to bash the Xbox 360, which he likes to call, "the Xbox 1.5". Sony's big man criticized Microsoft's new machine, claiming it "will only benefit general applications". He mocked the 360's architecture, writing it off as a simple extension of the original Xbox. Let the battle of words begin!
