PS3 to run at 120 frames per second?
Sony Computer Entertainment president Ken Kutaragi claims that the PS3 will be able to run at 120 FPS. Despite the fact that most new TVs aren’t capable of refreshing their screens 120 times per second, Kutaragi says his PS3 will be able to take advantage of any TV with the capacity, whenever advances in technology allow for it. Even as the refresh rate of TVs increases, it is unlikely that a TV of that quality will be a commercially viable option for the majority of gamers in the near future. Kutaragi says that the PS3’s chip is a work in progress, and he is hoping
that it could eventually
take advantage of the technology in many ways, such as displaying newspapers in their actual size, showing multiple high-definition channels on the screen at once, and video conferencing. He emphasized that the Cell can be used to decode more than 10 HDTV channels simultaneously, and it can also be used to apply effects such as rotating and zooming.
