No. I'm sure that's the processor which they're not going to be using. The processor they are going to use is the one that needs the code to be perfect, otherwise it throws a fit.
But with the right code will run fast... I think...
Someone with some intelligence back me up :(

Correct me if I'm wrong, but him saying the processors are going to run slow is all because of the code they use? Yes?
So surely if they just code it right everything will run nice and smoothly?

Yep, has to be the best article on gaming I've read so far this year.
That's interesting to actually read what the developers think - and so muh of it in tune with what we always seem to be saying.
I like the bit about Nintendo (but at least they HAVE innovation) :) And the bit about the MS presentation being horrible. Yup, it was crap.
