...but if Toni got involved I would expect hiding a nice little PS4UAE in the ROM.

I don't think Toni cares much about PS stuff.

His domain is 680X0, in which he is able to interpret almost any mnemonic, so why bother about PS?

Because Sony will pay him a shit load of cash.

Of course I don't expect Toni to be in the least bit interested, but I would love someone with his talent and drive to work on the project.

WinUAE is the only emulator that's getting anywhere these days.

I have already listed my organs for Toni, if ever he should need them. The guy is a Legend.

It just may be Tont that has the biggest part in keeping Amiga gaming alive.

I say that already... If it wasn't for WinUAE I wouldn't have re-discovered my Amiga youth, or indeed joined EAB

Would have kept on playing golden age Arcade games via MAME32 (which is still a strong passion) and a few other systems via emulation

PS3 vs XBox 360 reminds me of Amiga Vs St

St & Xbox started off better, Amiga and PS3 win (well hopefully lol)

PS3 and xb360 remind me of N64 and PS

N64 (PS3) is more powerfull but good games are few and far between and will lose.
PS (XB360) is less powerfull and cheaper build quality but will dominate due to an enormous library.

Of FPS games.... which are wank.

Give me a libary of diverse games anyday.

Anyway, the PS3 has it's fair share of big hitters now, and they are by far the most impressive looking.

Just a matter of time before Bills box o' shite is smacked down where it belongs

yeah but games like mgs4 and gt5 will hopefully help the ps3 along. also most games are now being released on both. lets hope blueray helps it too though i still think hd movies still have a year or 2 mature before it really takes off

Must be that untapped Cell Potential TM...

HD-DVD did unfortunately get b-tch slapped since warner went exclusive, so Hd (blu-ray) will probably be established as a standard pretty fast now.

The movie studios will do the same thing they did to video, release things on Blu-Ray a couple of weeks/months before DVD, that will speed things along quicker than you think.

Well, PS3 has the best looking exclusive games, and we now the 360 has a better GPU, you do the math.
